Look back and thank God
Look forward and trust God Look around and serve God Look within and find God. 2 Pet 1:3 God gives us everything we need to succeed I know He is the beginning, so why do I worry about the end?
I know He is the creator, so why do I wonder who will destroy? I know He has forgiven me, so why can't I forgive myself? I know He is a healer, so why do I speak of sickness? I know He can do all things, so why do I say I can't? I know He will protect me, so why do I fear? I know He will supply all my needs, so why can't I wait? I know He is my strength and my salvation, so why do I feel weak? I know that everything and everyone has a season, so why when someone's season is over do I weep instead of rejoicing? I know He is the right way, so why do I go the wrong way? I know He is the light, so why do I choose to walk in darkness? I know that whatever I ask of GOD, GOD will give me, so why am I scared to ask? I know tomorrow is not promised, so why do I put off for tomorrow what I can do today? I know that the truth shall make me free, so why do I continue to lie? I know He gives us revelation, knowledge and understanding, so why do I lean on my own understanding? I know I should live in the spirit as well as walk in the spirit, so why do I choose to live in the spirit but walk in the flesh? I know that when praises go up, blessings come down, so why do I refuse to praise Him? I know I am saved, so why do I refuse the word He has given me? I know He has a plan for me, so why am I rushing it because I am eager to do His will, when it is His time not my time? "The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything." We can be so stupid some times don’t you agree. Pray this prayer with me Lord guide us in your way Ps 32:8 help us to trust in you as the one true God Jer 10:10, help us to eat (meditate on and internalize) your Word Jer 15:16 and bear much fruit Joh 15:5 we pray this in Your Mighty Name Jesus Amen We all go trough tough times were we feel the grinding of
this world. It is so easy to fall prey or loose focus on what God has planned for us. Psalm 30 : 11 gives us a promise of hope it states " you have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have put off my sackloth and girded me with gladness." Jesus takes care of us He gives us a reason to hope a reason to live and a reason to dance. Feel the music and dance with Him. We can have good intentions & still be disobedient. Procrastination is very deceptive Proverbs 3:27-28 instructs us not to do it. Often we do not see putting off things as disobedience because we tend to obey God. Best intentions however do not produce results. We need to ask God to help us to take timely action.
Jesus came to take up our grief, our sickness, our weakness etc we have no reason to feel down or to be disheartened. Dont reject His hand He also done it for you. Isaiah 53:4 Surely He has borne our griefs(sicknesses, weaknesses and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains[of punishment] yet we [ignoreantly] considered Him stricken, smitten and afficted by God [as if with leprosy] Matt 8:17
When you have nothing left but God, you have more than enough to start over again!! Jesus is all we need. In Him we have all the heavenly blessings Efesians 1:3 God is our vindicator see Job 19:25. As long as we behave properly towards others, even when they come against us. God will reward us for being steadfast towards Him.
Zachariah 9:12 says we are prisoners of hope. This means we refuse to stop hoping in God no matter the circumstances. True biblical hope is a solid foundation it is a springboard for our faith to take off from and to actually take hold of the promises of God.
Psalms 31:24 Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all you that hope in the LORD. Gods word is filled with inherent Power Isaiah 55:11 ensures us that His Word never returns void it always accomplishes its purposes. When we learn to speak Gods Word instead of rehearsing how we feel or declaring what we think we are releasing Power. Speak in faith to your circumstances Gods truths is supernatural.
May the abundant love that Jesus had for you when he died on the cross and the Spirit he left inside of you when He rose fill you, may it heal you, may it bring positive changes into your life may it bring you closer to God, may you always be at peace.
Always remember that even though we are not always faithful God is always faithful He can not deny Himself. 2 Timothy 2:13 (Amp) If we are faithless [do not believe and are untrue to Him], He remains true (faithful to His Word and His righteous character), for He cannot deny Himself. In our relationship with God we are assured of our belonging. Rom 8:15
In our relationship with Jesus we are assured of our worthiness Rom5:8 and John 6:37 In our relationship with the Holy Spirit we have a secure sense of competence as He is our Comforter Guide and source of strength John16:7 |
