God wants to see positive changes in us that make a permanent difference. So in order to continue to move forward we need revelation and not just information. The Holy Spirit will reveal things to you about yourself and your surroundings. The word of God will feed you the vita food for the nutriment for your body and mind. He alone can direct you through this maze called life.
I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless, nor forsake nor let [you] down, [relax my hold on you]. –Assuredly not (Heb 13:5, amp)
Season come and go in your life, that’s how you grow. The journey is to strengthen you and you have to enjoy the ride even the bumps and detours along the way. “It is all good”! If you always won then you would not need God. Remember, when ever God humbles you it’s not where you are, but it’s about your future. God is ready to send down floods of blessing upon us as we begin to obey His plain instructions.
We cannot imagine all that God has in store for us both in this life and for eternity. He will create a new heaven and a new earth (Isaiah 65:17, Revelation 21:1), and we will live with him forever. Until then, his Holy Spirit comforts and guides us. Knowing the wonderful and eternal future that awaits us given us hope and courage to press on in this life. We will have hardship, but through God’s word, we can avoid temptation. Remember this world is not all there is. The best is still to come.
Prayer: Father, I take comfort, encouragement, confident and boldly say that the Lord is my Helper. I will not fear, for what can man do to me? In the name of Jesus I am a strong and courageous person who does not turn to the right or the left. I thank you Father that you have given me a spirit of power, and of love, and of a calm and well-balanced mind, and self-control. I rejoice in Jesus who has come that I might have life and have it more abundantly. The fresh and new has come! I forget those things which are behind me and reach forth unto those things which are before me. I am like a tree firmly planted by the streams of water, ready to bring forth my fruit in my season; my leaf also shall not fade or wither, and everything I do shall prosper and come to maturity. AMEN!
Now thanks be to God, Who always causes me to triumph in Christ!
Peace I leave with you from The Rosebud.
