God Is In Control…

Yet To Be # 268

Happy New Year

We stand on the threshold of a new year looking inward for strength and forward for hope, in the midst of our quivering apprehension and excitement.

We fear the future when we can’t see clearly the path that is set before us. Still without knowing what this new year will bring, we can rest in the knowledge and assurance of God promises.

He will never leave us or forsake us. His promises are real. His word is true.

We have nothing to worry about. We have nothing to fear because God is in control.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day. Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Psalm 91 verses 5 to 7.

Fear Not – Peace Be Still

There is no God like this everlasting God we serve.

YET TO BE #234

And he said unto him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel…1 Samuel 23 verse 17.

(David was anointed King and promised by God the throne. In this chapter of the book of Samuel, King Saul’s son Jonathan assures David he will be king no matter how much Saul, his father, seeks to murder him. God uses Jonathan to remind David of his future.
Sadly, Jonathan later breaks the covenant and remains with his father even unto his death.)


Storms may rise and threaten to destroy all hope and promises.
But God is in control.
He calms the storms of life with a wave of His hand.
He creates a dry path to walk in the seas of trouble and makes bridges of hope for the future.
There is no God like this everlasting God we serve.
What is to be, will be, and no one can hinder His work.
Therefore, be not deceived when God makes a promise He will fulfill His word.
