No Place For Worry Because Of Jesus

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6-7)

The Bible contains truth which safeguards us from our own opinion and defeating thoughts of the enemy. When we chose to stop worrying and focusing on the Word of God brings us joy. As we dwell on the scriptures, we begin to learn the character of Jesus and we can apply it in our day to day life. Whenever we are hurt by others, we start to worry with sinful thoughts.  Here, we choose to prayerfully think about the love of God. Jesus helps us change our thoughts and producing right action which enables us to love others.

True Contentment

We are to relish what we have rather than resent what is missing. We usually compare the best of people with worst of ourselves instead of looking to God. We can experience the true contentment in our life only when we trust in the sufficiency of God in meeting our needs at the right time. When we are assured in the truth of Jesus that He will never leave us in our circumstances working everything for our good, it helps us to center our life in Christ which will not cause us to give up on Him. Let us pray for the continued commitment to place Jesus above all.

Presence Of God Fill Our Lives Through Scripture Meditation

We spend our time in the feet of Jesus whenever we read the word of God. We can continue in the truth by meditating on the scripture which is done by thinking it over and muttering with our mouth whereby it is rooted in our hearts.  As our mind is exercised day and night in the word of God this helps us to remain stable in difficulties situations. Whenever we feel tempted to sin, this word in our hearts strengthens to overcome temptation. Mediating the verses again and again becomes like prayer unto God which helps us remember Him at all times. Let the presence of God fill our lives through meditation.

Jesus Is All We Have!

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. (Hebrews 4:15)

Jesus became High Priest through His finished work on the cross for us. When we receive Him by faith, He is our High Priest. The function of High Priest is representing people in matters related to God. Jesus who was God came down to earth as man for us and experienced suffering enduring temptations yet without sin. He is now able to understand our weakness thereby helping us come out strong. Let us be comforted daily with the truth Jesus intercedes for us daily.

God Is In Perfect Control Of Our Life

Jesus loved us and gave Himself for us as a holy offering to God for us through His incarnation, crucifixion and resurrection. When we receive Jesus as our Lord, He lives in us cherishing and nourishing as we walk out this Christian life daily. As challenges increase in our life makes us forget all about Jesus and His sacrifice for us. During those days, let us press on with strength of Christ to praise Him continually knowing His perfect solution comes to pass in our life at the right time. Let us praise Him because He is in perfect control of our life.

What Does Faith In God Mean?

Faith is the substance of reality of things hoped for based on the word of God. God created the world by the word of God. We can draw near to God through faith in Him. He promises to reward those who act in faith.

Prayer: Jesus I come to You by faith knowing that You will bring to pass the promises even when circumstances are hard. Help me never measure You by my thinking because with You all things are possible. I belong to those who have faith and are saved. Amen!

Hearing And Obeying The Voice Of God

 

In the Old Testament, God spoke to the nation of Israel to return His love. God who manifested His love through His providence but they showed no interest to Him. As we get busy in our affairs of love forgetting the love of God, we can still hear voice from God in our hearts or even through the scriptures saying to return back. When we give heed to that still small soft voice within us, we are filled with love, joy and peace all over again. I pray we will be filled with the love of God everyday of our life.
