Resting In The Lord Jesus

iuby Hazel Straub

Have there been times when 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 Jesus, for his support and help. No longer trusting in the natural or your own ability to cope but solely resting on the Lord.

Flesh fails but Jesus is our refuge, strength and support. He never fails or abandons but stays close to you. Dependable and your refuge from the storm.

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)

Thankful For Trials And Tests?

iurby Hazel Straub

How many times have you cried out to God for deliverance from challenging circumstances that brought discomfort? We like comfort not hardship and trials. Yet it is those most difficult things that brings maturity, wisdom and a deeper faith walk with Jesus.  Tests humble us and make us more God dependent. They bring accelerated growth and a new awareness of how God works for our good in our lives.

Thank God for challenging circumstances and people! Thorns and thistles make you mature.

Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. (James 1:2-4 MSG)

A Well Watered Garden

iu-1by Hazel Straub

Yahweh, our covenant keeping God, is constantly leading us. It does not matter if we find ourselves in the heat of the desert and thirsty, he satisfies all our needs. Our bones remain supple and healthy. Since he shepherds us, we are a well watered garden, lacking nothing.

Yahweh will continually guide you
and satisfy you even in sun-baked places.
He will strengthen your bones.
You will become like a watered garden
and like a spring whose water does not stop flowing. (Isaiah 58:11 NOG)

God’s Love For Us

iuby Hazel Straub

The love of God is the glue that holds us together, in spite of all the challenging circumstances that we face. Nothing can separate us from his love.

But no matter what comes, we will always taste victory through Him who loved us. For I have every confidence that nothing—not death, life, heavenly messengers, dark spirits, the present, the future, spiritual powers, height, depth, nor any created thing—can come between us and the love of God revealed in the Anointed, Jesus our Lord.

Pray And Receive Answers

iuby Hazel Straub

God challenges us to search for him and to call out to him. He wants us to have a close relationship, where he will show secrets to you. What puzzles you? Ask God and he will give you the answers.

When we seek him and cry out to him, he hears and answers us. Seek him with all your heart today.

Call to me and I will answer and reveal to you wondrous secrets that you haven’t known.(Jeremiah 33:3 CEB)

Freedom From Anxiety

iuby Hazel Straub

God met me more than halfway,
he freed me from my anxious fears.
Look at him; give him your warmest smile.
Never hide your feelings from him.
When I was desperate, I called out,
and God got me out of a tight spot.

God’s angel sets up a circle
of protection around us while we pray.
Open your mouth and taste, open your eyes and see—
how good God is.

Blessed are you who run to him.
Worship God if you want the best;
worship opens doors to all his goodness.
Young lions on the prowl get hungry,
but God-seekers are full of God. (Psalm 34:4-9 MSG)

How Is Your Faith Eyesight?

SONY DSCby Hazel Straub

How do you look at the circumstances in which you find yourself? Do you see with spiritual vision and faith? Or do you look at things in the natural realm and get intimidated?

Elisha an Old Testament prophet, had a young servant who looked at the enemy surrounding the city and became fearful. Elisha prayed that God would open the servant’s eyes and let him really see. God heard and showed the servant that the hills filled with angels and heavenly chariots. There was no need to fear because the truth was God, had him covered and was with him.

Today, I pray that God would open your eyes of faith, so you would know there is nothing to fear because he is with you. Whatever, the enemy has thrown at you will not prosper because greater are the ones with you than the ones against you. God, grant each one to have eyes of faith to see your reality. Thank you Lord that you fight our battles! Your love and the blood of Jesus prevails.

Early in the morning a servant of the Holy Man got up and went out. Surprise! Horses and chariots surrounding the city! The young man exclaimed, “Oh, master! What shall we do?”

He said, “Don’t worry about it—there are more on our side than on their side.”

Then Elisha prayed, “O God, open his eyes and let him see.”

The eyes of the young man were opened and he saw. A wonder! The whole mountainside full of horses and chariots of fire surrounding Elisha! 2 Kings 6:15-17 MSG)
