Trust In God Your Provider

trust2by Hazel Straub

God says: “Trust me not your resources, job, abilities, reasoning or heritage. Nothing is too difficult for me. Did I not sustain the Israelites for 40 years in the wilderness? They had bread from heaven to eat and supernatural water. Their clothes and shoes did not wear out. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. I am your provision and there is no lack, when I am your source.”

And now I have it all—and keep getting more! The gifts you sent with Epaphroditus were more than enough, like a sweet-smelling sacrifice roasting on the altar, filling the air with fragrance, pleasing God no end. You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need, his generosity exceeding even yours in the glory that pours from Jesus. Our God and Father abounds in glory that just pours out into eternity. Yes. (Philippians 4:18-20 MSG)

Yahweh Show Mercy

iuby Hazel Straub

Yahweh, have mercy! Mercy!

Show us your mercy, O Yahweh,
by giving us your salvation.
I want to hear what El Yahweh says,
because he promises peace to his people, to his godly ones.
But they must not go back to their stupidity.
Indeed, his salvation is near those who fear him,
and his glory will remain in our land. (Psalm 85:7-9)

He Restores My Soul

Yahweh my Shepherd, rescues, recovers, relieves, refreshes and restores me, to wholeness and gives me fresh breath, through leading me to a place of rest. He renews, revives, rebuilds and rejuvenates my life. He gives me new strength, while I rest in his presence.

He restores my soul…(Psalm 23:3 a)

Keys To Prosperity And Health

iurby Hazel Straub

When your heart fills with childlike trust in God, there is no need to analyze and map the road. Fully depend on God, and not on your brilliance and intellect.

Honor God with your best. Show an attitude of gratitude and listen to his voice. Receive his correction and discipline and don’t despise it. Know he delights in you, his dear child and he causes you to prosper.

Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
don’t try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
he’s the one who will keep you on track.
Don’t assume that you know it all.
Run to God! Run from evil!
Your body will glow with health,
your very bones will vibrate with life!
Honor God with everything you own;
give him the first and the best.
Your barns will burst,
your wine vats will brim over.
But don’t, dear friend, resent God’s discipline;
don’t sulk under his loving correction.
It’s the child he loves that God corrects;
a father’s delight is behind all this. (Proverbs 3:5-12 MSG)

God Our Shepherd

iuby Hazel Straub

God is our shepherd and has promised that we will not lack. He guides and leads us into good pasture and to still water. There are times when he asks us to take a step of faith and move from our old pasture, following him into the unfamiliar. We have to trust him for excellent provision, as we leave the familiar. We must leave procrastination and loving doing things our way.

Many times we miss out on our blessings because we refuse to leave the familiar and follow his voice into unknown territory. When we listen and follow his voice, abundant provision above what we could imagine is ours. His presence goes with us and we can handle difficulty with ease, resting in his love. We leave the past behind us and have room to receive the precious gifts he has for us today.

Irritants Become Pearls

iu-1by Hazel Straub

When others rub you the wrong way, God uses them as sandpaper to refine you and smooth your rough edges. Often the thing that irritates the most, show things inside of you. Thank God for irritants, as they are the catalyst for becoming more like Christ.

Mollusks produce pearls from sand and other irritants that get trapped inside their shell.  The pearl is highly prized and valuable. Those things that are difficult, often turn into things of great beauty. Rejoice!

God Fights Your Battles

iuby Hazel Straub

Fearful and worried about the opposition coming against you? Do you feel the odds look dismal, for your victory? Take heart, God fights your battles. The country of Judah had three countries declare war on them and a vast army marched against them. The king reacted, by calling the country to fast food and pray, seeking God, as they had no way in the natural, to protect themselves. They asked God to intervene on their behalf and he responded to them.

“The Lord says, ‘Don’t be afraid! Don’t be paralyzed by this mighty army! For the battle is not yours, but God’s! Tomorrow, go down and attack them! You will find them coming up the slopes of Ziz at the end of the valley that opens into the wilderness of Jeruel. But you will not need to fight! Take your places; stand quietly and see the incredible rescue operation God will perform for you, O people of Judah and Jerusalem! Don’t be afraid or discouraged! Go out there tomorrow, for the Lord is with you!’” (2 Chronicles 20:15b-17 TLB)

The  king told the people to believe the Lord. A choir led the army praising, worshipping and thanking God. At the sound of their worship, the Lord intervened and gave them victory over their enemies. The enemy turned on each other and killed everyone. When Judah arrived, all they saw were dead bodies. It took Judah three days, to carry all the plunder of jewels, money and clothing. On the fourth day, they praised the Lord and renamed the place, Valley of Blessing. They had rest from all their enemies because the Lord had fought their battle. What looked like certain defeat, ended in tremendous victory.

God is the same yesterday, today and forever. He fights your battles, when you seek him with thankful worship and praise. Your biggest battle turns into the greatest victory and blessing! Rejoice!

Time Of Realignment And Change

eagle-baby-in-nestby Hazel Straub

Has the pressure on you increased? Your way difficult and tempted to quit? Congratulations! God is preparing you for a promotion. The season has changed and the new is uncomfortable. This causes you to listen with an open heart and move in the direction that God directs. Old habits and ways of dealing with your circumstances do not work and it causes you to cry out to God, for relief and new strategies. This is your time of realignment, so you are in the right place, at the right time.

Eagles build nests for their young on high tree branches and on ridges. Although the parent eagles feed their young, when the fledglings get bigger feathers that make them capable of flying, they begin to venture from the nest. Eventually, the eaglets learn to fly and hunt on their own, learning from their parents. It is the same way for us. We live in a protected environment but it’s time to leave the nest and learn greater skills that will enable us to soar on the winds and go to new vistas. Although transition may present difficulties, go beyond our conceptions and catch God’s vision for our lives. Soar like an eagle and enjoy your time of leaving the comfortable nest!

Persist and see your harvest!

May we never tire of doing what is good and right before our Lord because in His season we shall bring in a great harvest if we can just persist. (Galatians 6:9 VOICE)
