For The Moment…37

Give thanks believing you have received it.

Meaning, there is no doubt. Believe the Lord is able to give you what you desire. Ask in faith, not doubting, because a double minded person is unstable in all things.

If there is doubt, then how can you say you trust God? How can you say you say in truth you believe him or that you take him at his word?

You do not believe it because you have no faith.

And you are living a lie.

You do not believe he can do it for you.

You do not believe he is great enough.

You do not believe you deserve it.

You need to make it right. You need to present all your fears and tell him about your doubts then cast them aside knowing he hears you and you trust him. 

Even if your faith is small like a grain of mustard seed. He will come through for you.

Believe him and see him as God the creator. The God who loves you no matter what you have done, no matter who you are.

(Adapted from Mark 11 verse 24, James 1 verse 6 and Matthew 17 verse 20)

Next… no one said it will be easy. There can be dark days ahead…

There Is No Shame

Yet To Be # 308

Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashame: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame. Isaiah 54 verse 4.

His words are true. His love is real.

His promises can never fail.

With his blood, he has bought our hearts.

Now, seen in him, we will never part.

Standing in faith, there is no shame, no press of fear.

Because the God of peace, our eternal Lord, is here and will remain near.

Yet To Be # 24

If we obey His word and trust in Him

Today’s Inspire

But whoso hearkened unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil.  Proverbs 1 verse 33

Here is a promise from the Lord.  It is quite clear, if we obey His word and trust in Him, then He will protect us and keep us safe where we will rest “under the shadow of His wings.” This is conditional. (Vicissitudes of Life, 2007)
