Projecting Fears

Yet To Be # 293

We think about a whole lot of things.

Things we have no control over.

Because of this lack of control, fear creeps into our thoughts.

The what-ifs become insurmountable.

We are consumed with our fears until we seek to share them and project them onto others.

If we for but one moment take our eyes off our fears and look to God he will quiet our hearts and mind.

Look to God; the same God who is all-powerful, almighty, and Creator of the world. Who parted the Red Sea. Who gave power to the least of all nations so that they could conquer their enemies. The God who walked with individuals and communed with them. Who stopped the lion’s mouth, who saved the three servants in the furnace. Who calmed the seas. Who sent his only son to save the world.

Look to God and remember his promises.

God Does Not Set You Up For Failure…

Yet To Be #292

God does not set you up for failure.

He is working on your success.

If you doubt and have small expectations, the only thing you will receive is mediocrity.

If God said for you to do something or go someplace, he will make it possible for you to succeed.

He will open up the heavens and provide whatever you lack.

He is a loving God.

Failure is not something he sets you up for. There may be times when you have to try again, and again, but in God’s time, everything will fall into place and be perfect.

He does not set you up.

He sets you right.

Reference verses:

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3 verse 10.

As for God, His way is perfect: the word of the Lord is proven. Psalm 18 verse 30

The blessing of the Lord enriches, and He adds no sorrow to it. Proverbs 10 verse 22

Don’t You Get It? God Has Your Back

Yet To Be # 291

Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea there is no God; I know not any. Isaiah 44 verse 8

How often do you need to hear that God has your back?

Why do you worry?

Why are you afraid?

He is God the almighty.

He has helped you before and you know he will always fulfill his promises.

So, what is your problem?

Live Life Pleasing to God

How does death change your perspective?

As a born-again believer, my life is not my own. I live in the constant presence of the living God. I try to live a life pleasing to God. But to answer this question; life is short. If you have loved ones, tell them you love them and be there for them. Once they are gone, you don’t get a second chance to tell them of your love for them. Live in the present.

God Will Help You Fear Not.

Yet To Be # 290

Thus saith the Lord that made thee, and formed thee from the womb, which will help thee; fear not… Isaiah 44 verse 2.

God knows you.

You are special.

You are unique.

He understands you because He made you.

You are not alone.

He sees you.

The Blood of Jesus…

Remembering Jesus…

Behold the Lamb, crowned with glory and honor.

The true Passover Lamb who gave himself so that we could be redeemed to God.

Redemption comes through the blood, his precious blood.

Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins.

It is by his blood that we are washed. We are cleansed and brought back to God in favor.

God sees the blood of His son and passed over in judgment.

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Reference verses: John 1: 29, 1 Corinthians 11: 23 to 26, Ephesians 1: 7, Hebrews 1 and Hebrews 10.

Comfort For Those In Mourning

Let not your heart be troubled.

Yet To Be #289

Let not your heart be troubled.

He shall wipe away all tears from their eyes

Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.

He health the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.

Reference verses: John 14:1, Revelation 21:4, Psalm 147:3, Matt 5:4

Comfort For Mourners…

Yet To Be # 288

For the Lord will not cast off forever.

But though he causes grief, yet will he have compassion.

For he doth not afflict willingly nor grieve the children of men

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning at the first blush of day when the shadows fly away. – Francis Lee

Reference verses: Lamentations 3:31 to 33, Psalm 30:5, Song of Solomon 2:17

Fear Not For I Am With Thee…

YET TO BE # 287

Fear Not for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west. Isaiah 43 verse 5

Lonely but never alone

Saddened but not given into disparity.

Deeply loved because you are His child.

His guidance is true.

His ways are sure.

His compassions never fail.

His grace is renewed every morning.

Great is His faithfulness.

He Remains Faithful…

If we stray in our thoughts with unbelief, the matter still exists.

His word is eternal

His love is true from everlasting to everlasting.

He can not deny himself because he remains faithful.

If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he can not deny himself. 2 Timothy 2 verse 13.
