Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will direct your path. Proverbs 3 verses 5 and 6

Give it all to God. If the problem is too big and the solution is too hard to fathom.

When there is no hope in the natural sense, believe.

Remember, we serve a supernatural God whose ways for not our ways. Who can do anything far above what we can ever think.

Only if we believe and trust in him with a faith even as small as a mustard seed. He will move heaven and earth to see us through.

For The Moment…102

I seek the Lord for his word is sweet.

I trust the Lord, for he is good and true.

He is the source of all my blessings. Everything that I have and everything that I am, I owe it all to the Lord.

He provides for all my needs even before I know what to ask for. I call on his name in my day of trouble.

I call on his name when I am lost.

I call upon his name when I have a song on my lips.

Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils. Isaiah 2 verse 22.

The Lord thy God in the midst ofvthee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

Zechariah 3 verse 17

What a good God we serve.

We ought to remember he is not just a God of judgment because he is holy, but he is a God of love and compassion.

His love is beyond our understanding. Look how he sent his only son, the son of his love; he sent him to die so that we could be saved.

How wonderful is he.

He will not hold back anything good from his people, those same people who he loves.

For The Moment…102

We can’t understand the great mysteries of life. How the rivers follow into the sea and the sea never gets full. Why does the sun rise and set at a certain time? How nature knows when it is spring when all the trees and blossoms begin to bloom.

We know there is a time for everything, and we believe and accept that event will happen.

We don’t know or understand the mind of God. His ways are past finding out. In other words, they are beyond our comprehension.

But it is for us to trust God where we can not trace Him.

As thou knoweth not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knoweth not the works of God who make the all. Ecclesiastes 11 verse 5.

For The Moment…101

Looking in the mirror, you don’t like what you see convincing yourself that your so-called flaws are ugly.

What is your beauty standard? Who made it up?

Beauty shines from the inside out. It is something that can not hide. It should be appreciated and praised. It can be seen by the eyes of the beholder. 

Next time when you want to bring yourself down because others can not see the beauty that shines from your soul, remember you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Psalm 139 verses 13 and 14.

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

For The Moment…100

Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that fearth the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 30 verse 31.

Fearing the Lord does not always mean to run and hide away from him because he is a God of judgment.

There is reverential fear. This is when you own him as Lord. You praise him. And you bow the knee in adoration.

It is when you understand his holiness and that it demands your honor and praise and love.

For The Moment…99

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

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

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name.

That at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Amen and Amen again.

Philippians 2 verses 5 to 11.

For The Moment…98

In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire. 

He was their guide, and He gave them protection.

He brought streams out of the rock and caused waters to run down like rivers.

When they were thirsty and faint, he gave them water to drink.

And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the wilderness.

They kept on the path of sin even when they saw how God took care of them.

Yea, they spake against God; they said, “Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?”

Ungrateful heart and slow to understand the love of God. He takes care of us because we are His children. Yet we are so undeserving of his love.

Adapted from Psalm 78 verse 14 to 19.

For The Moment…97

But if thou shalt indeed oney his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. Exodus 23 verse 22.

He will be your protector.

When the enemy comes up against you, he will fight for you.

God, the creator, your Father, who loves you, will prepare provision for you in the day to trouble.

You have divine protection surrounding you.

Fear not he is with you. Abide in  him, and truly, he will never forsake you in the name of Jesus.

As a child of God, you are covered by the blood of God’s only began son. In the name of Jesus, you walk in peace.

For The Moment…96

Let us walk in the light of the Lord.  Isaiah 2 verse 5.

Light illuminates. It reveals the direction to take. It can be a beacon in the middle of darkness as a guide to safety.

As we walk in the Lord’s light, we will see a clear path for our feet so they will not slip. We will not fall but if we do for any reason fall or even stumble maybe because our legs are tired and our mind need rest, the Lord will pick us up and hold our hand to give us strength so we can keep moving forward.

He is a good God.
