I STILL TRUST IN GOD

-

Isaiah 12:2

Behold, God [is] my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD Yahweh [is] my strength and [my] song; he also is become my salvation.


When we say trust, we mean to depend on, and this is established not just when things are all right but actually when all seems to have crashed, when all hopes seems to have been lost.


The question is if you do not trust in the Lord then who will you trust?


Will you trust in man?


Will you trust in yourself?


Will you go to the darkness?


Of course man can fail but God would not, it is wisdom to trust in the Lord. However knowing that times of tests would come many feel it is futile to do so, when you speak of business deals,  daily routines, and many other transactions we have to do here on earth it sounds weird to some when you bring the Lord into the picture. Though some have gotten it wrong, thinking that God would do for us what He has already empowered us to do. No He doesn't, yet we know that we cannot get carried away and think that it is by our strength.


1Samuel 2:9b

for by strength shall no man prevail.


As we join our brethren today in worship let us remember whom we have trusted, grateful that even before we asked, He has settled it for us. To Him be all the glory.


That temptation, trial and difficulty will soon be over, it is just passing through, but you will overcome them all. For He that is in us is greater than he that is in the world.


Our victory is consistent.


Halleluyah


Glory to God.


PRAYER

Loving Father my trust in You is without borders, I depend on You for You are my everything. The pain and difficulties are over, I have full victory. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J...

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta...

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same...
