No Fear In God’s Love

573995030_4965dab91bby Hazel Straub

Worried and fearful? Allow the love of God to envelope and penetrate you. He sent his only son to redeem you from hopelessness and fear because of his love.

Knowing and receiving God’s love, rids you of all fear, worry and anxiety, allowing you to rest. The more you know his love, the more it saturates your viewpoint and the more you leak love to others because his love changes you from the inside. You are much-loved and beloved!

God’s love has reached its goal in us. So we look ahead with confidence to the day of judgment. While we are in this world, we are exactly like him with regard to love.  No fear exists where his love is. Rather, perfect love gets rid of fear, because fear involves punishment. The person who lives in fear doesn’t have perfect love. (1 John 4:17-18 NOG)

God Shines Through Us

When are weak and inadequate, God shines out of our lives. The cracks in our lives allows the light of God’s love  to shine out of us. The treasure we carry inside shows best in brokenness. Also, when we  walk in humility, God gets all the glory. Shine!

True Worship And Love

imagesby Hazel Straub

How we treat one another reflects our true worship of God. We need to leave our gift at the altar and reconcile with each other, as it is time to turn our hearts towards each other. It is not important how others receive our love but for us to love. May we be known, as a people who love, without expecting love and acceptance from others. This is the worship that pleases God. It is easy to love someone who believes and acts like you do. It is another thing to show love towards those whose value system is different.

Pray and ask God to soften your heart of stone and to give you his heart for others. Let him burn everything in your heart that is not of him. May we answer the call to show mercy towards those whom we do not approve or like. God has told us to extend mercy, if we are to receive mercy. It begins with those whom we dislike. This is pure worship.

We become a burning sacrifice on the altar, when we love and are merciful to those with whom we vehemently disagree. Let the holiness of God’s fire, burn all the dross in your heart.

Daddy God Our Encourager

iuby Hazel Straub

Daddy God is intimately involved in our lives. He shows us mercy. When we go through painfully hard times, he walks with us, encouraging and helping us. Then we get to share it, with others who also struggle. Daddy God’s healing comfort is contagious!

Praised be God, Father of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, compassionate Father, God of all encouragement and comfort; who encourages us in all our trials, so that we can encourage others in whatever trials they may be undergoing with the encouragement we ourselves have received from God. (2 Corinthians 1:3-4 CJB)

Yahweh Your Provider And Provision

by Hazel Straub

Worried abiuout provision because your bank account won’t stretch to pay the bills? Do you think that what you have is insufficient  to meet your needs? No matter what the situation, Yahweh promises to provide for those who trust and obey him.

No matter, if there is a drought and no water for the crops, Yahweh sustains and takes care of you. It did not rain in Israel for 3 1/2 years, due to their failure to worship and depend on Yahweh and instead worshiped idols. Elijah, the prophet of Yahweh, followed his instructions, to go to foreign town, where a widow would feed him. Elijah met the widow who was gathering wood for cooking her and her son’s last meal. She believed the prophet and provided him with water and bread before feeding her family. Her trust and faith in Yahweh, resulted in her little flour and oil, sustaining her household, until it rained and crops harvested. She obeyed Yahweh, provided for Yahweh’s prophet and Yahweh provided for her and her family. Her handful of flour and small amount of oil never ran out.

Yahweh loves you, and sustains those who have faith, in his provision, through seasons of drought. Believe and trust him, as your provider, not letting fear rule. Vision him, as your provision.

Then Elijah told her, “Don’t be afraid. Go home, and do as you’ve said. But first make a small loaf and bring it to me. Then prepare something for yourself and your son. This is what Yahweh Elohim of Israel says: Until Yahweh sends rain on the land, the jar of flour will never be empty and the jug will always contain oil.” She did what Elijah had told her. So she, Elijah, and her family had food for a long time. The jar of flour never became empty, and the jug always contained olive oil, as Yahweh had promised through Elijah. (1 Kings 17:13-16 NOG)

Problems Come With Promises And Provision

by Hazel Straub

The bigger the problem and challenge in your life, the bigger the promise and provision for overcoming. Rather than drowning in negativity and self-pity, take another look with God’s vision. What first appears, as a disaster, can propel you into incredible change and promotion.

Joseph’s brothers betrayed him and sold him into slavery. Later falsely accused, given no chance to defend himself,  he remained in prison for years. As a slave and later a prisoner, he ruled over the household and then the prison. He learned the culture of Egypt and of Pharoah’s court, while in prison.  This was intense training for later ruling the nation. Joseph circumstances compelled him to rely on God and his timing. During the long difficult years, Joseph developed patience and forgave his brothers. The adverse circumstances were the catalyst for reconciliation with his brothers and saving of his family and nation. All the trials Joseph endured, prepared him to rule a country and save many from starvation and death due to the promise and provision of God.

Today, rejoice and thank God that he has incredible provision bigger than your current challenges. The difficulties you grow through, have provision that will propel you into your destiny. Lift up your eyes, to the Lord. What others meant for your evil, God turns it into good. Opposition means God’s provision and promotion are yours, if you don’t give up and allow God to have his way in your life.

Pray Rather Than Worry

iuby Hazel Straub

Worry and anxiety steal your strength and peace from you.You cannot rest, when you are chewing on your problems and filling your mind with all the “what if this happens?” Most of what you dread never happens, except in your mind.

Instead, make a habit of thanking God, for all the wonderful things he is doing in your life. Praise and worship him because of his faithfulness, love, mercy and compassion for you. Worship him for his forgiveness. Jesus walks with you and is your best friend, carrying your burdens so you can rest and get refreshed.

Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. (Philippians 4:6-7 MSG)

Trust In The Lord

imagesby Hazel Straub

Yahweh is trustworthy and worthy of all of your trust.

Trust in the Lord and do what is right!
Settle in the land and maintain your integrity!
Then you will take delight in the Lord,
and he will answer your prayers.

Commit your future to the Lord!
Trust in him, and he will act on your behalf.
He will vindicate you in broad daylight,
and publicly defend your just cause. (Psalm 37:3-6 NET)
