It is so hard to overcome and to struggle through the
issues we face in this world. We are forced out of our comfort zone and most of
us despise change of any sort. The obstructive mountains loom before us.
However, if we live in the moment, and not regret anything in the past or fear
the unknown entities of the next moment, God will give us the grace to
accomplish His will through each minute we live.
God’s Spirit abides in us and will not leave us for any
reason (Deuteronomy
31:6). We can completely depend upon His mercy, grace, wisdom and
strength to accomplish everything that is in His will for our life. If we
strike out on our own without consulting God’s Will, that is just where we will
remain – on our own. However, walking in the Spirit insures our success in
every endeavor (Proverbs
3:5-6).
It is possible to live a joy-filled life, if we change the
way we look at trials. They are actually an adventure in the Lord. If we look
through our spiritual eyes of understanding, we will see His mighty hand removing
every mountain that hinders us, even in the worst of situations, to give us a
positive outcome (Romans
8:28). God works in us as we walk in the Spirit throughout the day.
No one who waits for God’s direction will end up
humiliated or defeated. Only those who refuse to walk in His Will shall experience
shame and defeat. He shows His Saints His ways and He teaches us how to walk on
His paths. We hope in Him every moment of every day (Psalm 25:3-5). We trust that His ultimate
plan provides for our advantages. Our only true salvation is from the Lord (Jonah 2:9).
Prayer:
Father God, when our soul – our thoughts, decisions and feelings – feel
fearful and weary, if we remember to focus on You, to seek Your face and to
pray, You will hear us from Your Holy Hill. We no longer cling to human reason
and resources. We no longer forsake Your loving kindness by rejecting Your
invitation to live in You. We live in thanksgiving for who You are and all You
do for us throughout our life (Jonah 2:7-9).
Thought for the Day:
There is no one like Our God. He is mighty in power
and we revere Him. He is the true and might King over every single nation for
all time. – Jeremiah 10:6-7
