I remember growing up hearing "something GOOD is going to happen to you". This is for those where faith seems small, who wonder where is God. We read in Job "God thunders with His voice wondrously, Doing great things which we cannot comprehend". I know it looks dark out side and not getting any better. This is for those that feel they can't hold on and some how they did something and now God has forgot you. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". I write these things for its written "And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works," for "may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." The lords " anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.". When we are lost we need to go back to the start. Read His word for "Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts."
We need to remember how to think " whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." Know who you are " in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." God is "my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.
What I ... lol not I but the lord gave us is His word. He can not lie. When you fear or doubt hold on to His word. For He will do it. He is doing MIGHTY things in this world today. People are getting saved and set free and delivered of all kind of things. His Spirit is all over this world moving. Your not alone.. He sees you and is holding you. We need more PRAISE reports. These kind of things help us to stay strong in times like we live now. If God has done something wonderful post it here! Its easy to get lost in all the news today. But don't forget who you are and where your from. This is not your home. When we read "the prodigal son" we tend to focus on the son. But did you see what the dad did? This is God.. He ran to the son! We can not comprehend His love for us and how much He wants to see us. Jesus is coming. No did you hear? God said... He is coming! He can not lie nor does He change. So hold on you may not feel it or feel alone but there is always someone out there praying for you.
Last brothers and sisters we need to walk in love. Times are hard we do not have time to argue. This world will know we are His by the love we have for one another. I leave you with "the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness"
And I thank the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for John. That I may post this here.
