God is amazing enough to hold the entire universe in the palm of His hands (Ecclesiastes 18:3). He cares so much for us that He intervenes in the smallest of details, and bids us to fully surrender to His will, and to completely trust in His love. He brings us peace through every anxious moment.
We can draw near to Him and trust Him whenever we are afraid (Psalm 56:3). He gives us His peace, wisdom and courage to trust in His mercy and grace regardless of what we experience. In our times of uncertainty, He gives us confidence and direction that is perfect for every situation.
As we humble our self, admit that we need Him, and relinquish our cares to Him, He pours out to us His abundant blessings even in the midst of our trials. We can truly trust in Him, because He proves His faithfulness to us on every occasion.
With a steadfast soul, we can continually sing and make music in our heart to the Lord (Psalm 108:1-2). We awaken our soul by reading His Word and reminding our self of His dependability throughout our entire life – even when we did not live for Him.
God loves the whole world and does not want anyone to perish either now or in eternal damnation (2 Peter 3:8-10). Yet, it is our choice to make (John 3:18). He gives us a free will to decide for our self if we will believe in Him, or in the disparaging words of the disillusioned in this world who attempt to draw us away from our Heavenly Father (1 Timothy 1:4; 2 Timothy 4:4).
God calls us to praise Him among the nations, and in the midst of all the people of the world. In this world of technological advances, we can do this from the comfort of our living room recliner through the internet. Using a free blog, we can document the miracles that God plants for us in all of our trials.
Then, those whom He leads to read our journaling, will discover a link between us and their own life, and God can draw them to Himself by our witness to the world. Their own pride and rebellion are the only things that will keep them from trusting in God’s goodness for themselves (Psalm 108:3-4).
Prayer:
Father God, we want to live as a beacon of light, set upon a hill; not hidden under a basket of cares, busyness and fears, but empowered by Your Spirit and Truth (Matthew 5:14-16). Your love for us is higher than the heavens and Your faithfulness exceeds the skies. We applaud you, Blessed Lord, and pray that You are exalted over all the earth, as Your glory fills our life (Psalm 108:5).
Thank You for loving us, saving us, providing for us, redeeming us and delivering us from this degrading world of sin, shame and brokenness. We no longer depend on humanity for our help, satisfaction, happiness, provision or care, because people are flawed and let us down so often. However, in Your constant care, we gain the victory, contentment and fulfillment that we so need and desire (Psalm 108:12-13).
Thought for the Day:
We can determine in our heart to trust God completely, celebrate with Him the victory that He gives us through every circumstance, bask in His unconditional love, draw our strength from His salvation, revel in His faithfulness that knows no end, honor Him with our praise and devotion, and walk in His victory every day of our life.
