Have you desired emotional support, when you were going through difficulties? Did you wonder where your support was? At times, your life routines will crumble, so your only reliable alternative is complete reliance on Daddy God, for his support and help. No longer trusting in the natural or your own ability to cope but solely resting on the Lord our God.
Flesh and natural strength fails but God is our refuge, strength and support. He never fails or abandons but stays close. His presence is dependable and your refuge from the storm. Rest and believe he will be with you, no matter what the circumstances. Your place of strength, is resting in the loving kindness, mercy, and grace of God.
God is our shelter and our strength. When troubles seem near, God is nearer, and He’s ready to help. So why run and hide? No fear, no pacing, no biting fingernails. When the earth spins out of control, we are sure and fearless. When mountains crumble and the waters run wild, we are sure and fearless. Even in heavy winds and huge waves, or as mountains shake, we are sure and fearless. (Psalms 46:1-3 VOICE)
Your life can only get better. Yahweh is taking the sting of the “I” out of your bitter and adding the “e” of his excellency and making you better. It can only get better…Selah
Daddy God rescued us from hopelessness and the power and authority of darkness, through his beloved Son, Christ Jesus. Only the power of God can redeem us from the darkness into the kingdom of God. Jesus God’s Beloved Son, paid the price of our sin, by his blood, so we can live without guilt and enjoy the light of God. All glory to God!
He has rescued us completely from the tyrannical rule of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom realm of his beloved Son. For in the Son all our sins are canceled and we have the release of redemption through his very blood. (Colossians 1:13-14 TPT)
It’s so fulfilling to REST. To Rest from all your labor after working all week. To REST in the finished work of Jesus on Calvary. To REST from all fear, worry, harm, stress, and dis ease. To REST from struggle, deadlines, and all the hustle and bustle of life. To enter the INNER REST of FAITH, whereby, we occupy the promise or promised land.
To REST, to be restored. To REST your mind, your heart, on the WORD promises and security of God. We labor, to enter, HIS REST, because he is the God, who makes all things possible and beautiful in HIS TIME! There is a REST for the weary, a refreshing, sanctuary, a full resort and complete sabbath REST, for the people of God. Where we are made confident that the Father has gone before us and provided everything we need.
Let’s enter in….. He says, “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.] Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle (meek) and humble (lowly) in heart, and you will find rest (relief and ease and refreshment and recreation and blessed quiet) for your souls. [Jer. 6:16.] For My yoke is wholesome (useful, good–not harsh, hard, sharp, or pressing, but comfortable, gracious, and pleasant), and My burden is light and easy to be borne.” Come away with Me and I will take you there… (Matthew 11:28-30, Isaiah 28:12, Hebrews 5:9)
God does not treat us as we deserve, but is very good to us. His goodness towards us causes us to soften our hearts, so we turn from our rebellion and fully to him. When our sinful behavior does not get immediate negative consequences, we tend to think that we are getting away with it. Instead, God draws us to him with love, grace and mercy.
Do the riches of his extraordinary kindness make you take him for granted and despise him? Haven’t you experienced how kind and understanding he has been to you? Don’t mistake his tolerance for acceptance. Do you realize that all the wealth of his extravagant kindness is meant to melt your heart and lead you into repentance? (Romans 2:4 TPT)
You have a date with Destiny and cannot be late, Forgiveness deletes the speed bumps in the road of your destiny. You can’t allow the enemy nor your circumstances to dictate your destiny
Your destiny doesn’t answer to the approval of men but the approval of God. Grab a hold to your destiny in hand and pursue God withal your heart.
Destiny is not some far away place in your future, if you’re doing what God is requiring of you, you’re in destiny this instance, just not all of it. Therefore, if you’re feeling restless, frustrated, or annoyed, it’s usually your destiny calling for you to get into the presence of God…
Have you reacted to life disappointments with complaining? When we are unhappy and throw a self-pity party, fuel is given to the enemy of our soul. We get discouraged and either quit or run from what appears as an unbeatable giant. God has promised that he will not give us more than we can handle. We often get tests, so we can overcome the challenge, relying in faith on the Lord God.
The ancient Hebrews were miraculously delivered from slavery in Egypt. When ten of the spies brought back a report of giants, in the land of promise, the people responded with complaining and despair. Only two spies believed that God would give them their land, despite how things appeared. Complaining caused them to lose their blessing of something bigger. They ended up dying in the wilderness.
What will you choose today? Complaining or rejoicing in the Lord? Worshiping God and seeing victory or pouting? Going in pride and independence or faith in God giving you victory?
Do everything without grumbling or arguing, (Philippians 2:14 NET)
Pure Glory
