“It is because of the Lord’s mercy and loving-kindness that we are not consumed because His [tender] compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great and abundant is Your stability and faithfulness. The Lord is my portion or share, says my living being (my inner self); therefore will I hope in Him and wait expectantly for Him.” Lamentations 3:22-24 (AMPC)
It is in His Stability and Faithfulness that we find our daily anchor in life.
His stability and Faithfulness helps us daily to find direction and strength for each new day.
His Stability and Faithfulness keeps us sane and courageous in this ever-changing world that we live in.
When the tempest and billows of life blow on us because HE is on the ship with us, we can say “Peace be still” (Matthew 8:23-27)
As you commence the new month, the last three months of 2018 let His Stability and Faithfulness navigate you to the end.
“GOD’s loyal love couldn’t have run out, his merciful love couldn’t have dried up. They’re created new every morning. How great your faithfulness!
I’m sticking with GOD (I say it over and over). He’s all I’ve got left.” Lamentations 3:22-24 (MSG)
Walk into this new month with the brand New Faithfulness and Stability that HE daily provides for you.
They are Great and Abundantly available to you each new day.
“Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the Lord is with him.” 1 Samuel 16: 18 KJV
God’s ways are not our ways;
We discovered that God did not directly give the above description of the qualities HE had seen in David through Samuel.
Instead, it came from a “servant” whose name was not even mentioned in the Bible.
This is a lesson for leaders God watches and uses whosoever obeys Him. Heaven will be full of surprises.
Whose son are you?
Are you indeed born again? We call you brother or Sister, but God knows who you are. If you are not His son, He knows.
What skills do you have?
You are born with talents and potentials, but you must develop yourself.
David from this account was just put in charge of the sheep, but he developed his skills. He was the 8th child, seven brothers were preferred before him, but that did not deter him from his destiny.
The dictionary defines valor as “strength of mind or spirit that enables somebody to encounter danger with firmness, personal bravery.”
The Bible says as a man thinketh so is he.
David had great thoughts about himself, which became manifested.
Are you talented? Add bravery to your talents and become who God has purposed you to be.
Today don’t hide your abilities be brave about it.
You don’t know who is going to give your testimony in the right place or using today’s parlance God is about to put in a proper word for you
“ He built the stones into the altar in honor of GOD. Then Elijah dug a fairly wide trench around the altar. He laid firewood on the altar, cut up the ox, put it on the wood, and said, “Fill four buckets with water and drench both the ox and the firewood.” Then he said, “Do it again,” and they did it. Then he said, “Do it a third time,” and they did it a third time. The altar was drenched, and the trench was filled with water.” 1 Kings 18:32-35 (MSG)
Yes God can.
Yes God is able.
Yes God will do it again and again.
What did He do?
Water was very very scarce in Israel at this time due to famine.
There was neither rain nor dew according to God’s word from Elijah.
However when Elijah needed water to pour on to God’s altar
There was an abundance of water to do it.
Whatever assignment God has given, HE provides for it.
His Provision is always available to carry out His instructions.
David thirsted for the waters of the well in Israel.
“David had a sudden craving and said, “Would I ever like a drink of water from the well at the gate of Bethlehem!” So the Three penetrated the Philistine lines, drew water from the well at the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But David wouldn’t drink it; he poured it out as an offering to God, “2 Samuel 23:15-17 (MSG)
Trust God for His Provisions for ONLY what HE has asked you to do.
“And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.” (Psalm 40:3)KJV
“Thy bountiful care, what tongue can recite It breathes in the air, it shines in the light; It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.” – Christian Hymnals
The Timeless Hymn “Oh, worship the King, all glorious above,” aptly encourages us to reflect on the Glories and Wonders of God.
“Your glories and wonders, what tongue can recite?”
“O for a thousand tongues to sing My dear Redeemer’s praise” Charles Wesley (1739)
“O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer’s praises, the glories of my God and King, the triumphs of his grace! My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim, to spread thro’ all the earth abroad the honors of your name.”
Take time today to reflect on the in-numerous(uncountable) things God has done for you.
God has done so many things for you today that you should take time to worship Him with these hymns and any other expression of HIS love in your heart back to HIM in total adoration and appreciation.
Our relationship with God should not just be to ask, ask, ask, and ask again.
Pause for some time today to just Praise Him and be grateful for all the wonders and glories HE keeps doing in your life.
Make up your mind that today you will actually thank HIM for all the Blessings that HE has continually bestowed on you. The more you Praise Him, the more the abundance of HIS true Riches you will enjoy.
Today sing and praise HIM for HIS Glories and Wonders.
“Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41)KJV
Through prayer, the resources of God are put to good use. Without prayer, God’s resources and promises remain unclaimed. Consequently, we live unfulfilled and defeated lives.
Victory in our Christian life and success in our Christian service are only possible through constant communion with God. Every child of God living in righteousness and holiness has the incredible privilege to come boldly to the throne of grace to obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Through prayer, we receive strength to withstand all temptations, tensions, and trials. The pressures of each day are beyond what our human frailty can bear. We need the spiritual support that is obtainable only through prayer. Prayer turns difficulty into opportunity and tragedy into triumph. It keeps us afloat as we sail through the storm of this life.
Prayer sustains our faith and strengthens our confidence in God. All that we ask for in prayer must conform to the will of God. Our Chief aim in prayer must be in the spirit of self-sacrifice. Our prayer must not be concentrated on our spiritual, physical or materials needs alone.
We are to intercede as well for the souls of men in the outreaches of the churches, the ministers and worker in God’s vineyard, and the various needs of members of the body of Christ.
“One day Jesus taught the apostles to keep praying and never stop or lose hope. He shared with them this illustration.” Luke 18:1(TPT)
“And when [the families of Jacob’s sons] had eaten up the grain which the men had brought from Egypt, their father said to them, Go again; buy us a little food.”Genesis 43:2 (AMPC)
Go again don’t sit still.
Go again don’t give
Go again Stop arguing.
Go again; trust him/her.
Many of us today are in similar situations like Israel was with his remaining sons after Joseph had held Simon as a surety to prove they are not fake.
We are sometimes in a quagmire that the only way out is forward.
The family could debate, justify and rationalize delaying going back to Egypt.
Look around you and find hope and courage as Israel did
Trust more for just one more time.
Love more for just one more time
Pray more for just more time.
Give more for Just more time.
Israel’s decision to go again yielded fulfillment
There may be some grey areas and misgivings.
God says HE knows the way through the wilderness.
All you have to do is to follow.
God said to Moses: “Why cry out to me? Speak to the Israelites. Order them to get moving. Hold your staff high and stretch your hand out over the sea: Split the sea! The Israelites will walk through the sea on dry ground. Exodus 14:15
God told them to move forward despite the challenges of the pursuing Egyptian army, the fearful mixed multitude, and the Red Sea.
