I know My Champion Lives

Jesus the Lord my righteousness.

Yet To Be #257

I sit in a room with dark windows while the world outside sinks into chaos. Drought, famine, poverty, and greed threaten to rise like strong men preparing for battle. To fight a war that is to come; a war to end all wars the like we have never seen; violence to wipe out the children of men. This battle of life is old. There is only one captain, Savior, Redeemer, one Champion who lives to fight.
He is Jesus the Lord, my righteousness, my Saviour, my friend.

Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. Psalm 27:3

The Lord is My Light and My Salvation Whom Shall I Fear.

There is joy in knowing Jesus.

Yet To Be # 256

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you.

The Lord is my life and my salvation.
He gives, and He takes away; so deep is His love.
Who knows the mind of the Lord, and who can understand His ways?
His ways are not my ways neither are His thoughts my thoughts.
Nothing escapes His eyes when they are fixed solely on His children.
He is my light as I walk through the valley, scale mountains, weather storms, and descend into pits.
He is my guide and my savior.
I am no longer afraid of the Dark.

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27 verse 1

Hope rocks some serious acquaintance.

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12

He is your salvation.
Come to Jesus with all your burdens, lay them before Him, and confess your sins. Ask Him to come into your heart, and be the Lord of your life. He will give you joy, peace, and freedom in your soul like never before.
There is joy in knowing Jesus.

Not Shaken, Not Stirred

when you follow the Word of God and look to Jesus, his only begotten Son, you learn life is worth living.

Yet To Be #255

When you listen to the noise surrounding your life, you hear many voices.
Some voices speak words of comfort and peace.
Where others utter words that are sad, and dark, words that are not edifying but disturbing and destructive. These are the loudest and most persistent because they bring along with their burdens of fear and torment.
Finally, there are voices of truth. Truth is a funny thing. It gives freedom in the face of guilt. It gives transparency when there is no vision, yet truth can be dark. Dark only because it shines a light in areas you strive to keep hidden.
These are the voices that should be heard.
Although their sting can be painful, their resolve is sure and honest.
As you listen to those words of truth, you begin to hear the voice of the Lord in a sea of noise. By His words of truth, you become unshaken and not stirred by the changing matters of this life. When you follow the Word of God and look to Jesus, his only begotten Son, you learn life is worth living.

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death; I will fear no evil, for thou art with me. Psalm 23 verse 4

Fear Not and Do Not Be Shaken

My belief stands firm because he is my hope.

Yet To Be #254

I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
I am not shaken.
When the darkness of my thoughts threatens to consume me, he is always there to lead me to the light.
My belief stands firm because He is my hope, my shield, and my reward.
I fear not because I am always in his remembrance.

Reference: Psalm 16 verse 8

We Contemplate Thee: Remembrance of Jesus

Yet To Be 253

We think of Him, who in willing obedience to the Father came to earth to die.

The Son of God who was there in eternity past left it all for us that we might be enriched.

Made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, ( he emptied himself), and was made in the likeness of men:

And being found in fashion as a man, ( his own creation), he humbled Himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

It does not end here…

But we see Jesus who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

Fear Not God Has it All Under Control

Yet To Be # 252

His ways are not our ways.

I will lay me down in peace, and sleep for thou, Lord, only makes me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8

Rest assured God is in control.

His thoughts are not our thoughts.

The finite can never understand the infinite .

He can do anything beyond whatever we think or ask.

He is God.

Confidence Instead of Fear.

Yet To Be #251

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that set themselves against me around about. Arise , O Lord; save me. I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me. Psalm 3 verses 6, 7a, and 5.

People have plans.

They have hidden agendas.

A smiling face may cover a darkened scowl that lies beneath.

No one knows the heart like God.

No one hears the malice laced in sweet words but God.

As terror mounts while the devices of those who hate you multiple, there is a steady confidence that God will protect you.

God will sustain you.

Rest assured God will defend you.

You must call on your faith with unwavering assurance that God has your back.
