Do you want to know, to experience what is the good and perfect will of God?

In order that we may be able to know and to experience the perfect will of God, the depths of the riches both of his wisdom and knowledge, we must by his mercies, present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, and acceptable to God, who will transform us by renewing our minds, so that we may prove what is his good and perfect will. Praise the Lord!

Do you make it a habit to daily direct your prayers to God?

Help us Lord, to make our daily meditation before you a priority, help us Lord to direct our prayers to you, not only for our immediate needs, but, especially for guidance and protection. Lord, help us to trust in you and your faithfulness. Psalm 5 reminds us, “But, let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; let them forever shout with joy because you defend them, let those who love your name rejoice in you, for you O Lord will bless the righteous, with favor you will surround them like a shield.” Thank you, Lord!

Where is your hope? Who is your help?

Our hope is in the Lord our God and He alone is our help. He satisfies our longings, He is merciful and gracious towards us. Let us continue to trust God in everything, let Him have His way in our lives always, for He alone is our hope and our help. Our mouths shall continually be full of praise for Him and we will bless His name forever. Happy is he who has the Lord of Jacob as his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God who made heaven and earth! Amen!

Could anyone block your blessings from God?

Absolutely not! “That which is has already been, and what is to be has already been.” Whatever God has ordained for you, no one can take it away from you. Only you can block your blessings from God. When we take things out of God’s timing, it will never last. When we go against what God has promised to us, we lose every time. Wait patiently on the Lord, and he will give you your fruits in due season. “To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.”

Do you know what the Lord require of you?

My brother and sisters in Christ, God requires something of you. But, until you realize what he requires of you, make a promise to serve him faithfully. As we continue to serve God and get more acquainted with him, he will reveal to us just what he requires of us. Learn to be still in God’s presence.

Learn to make peace with what you’ve got!

Lord, you have given us good things and we praise you, sometimes, we receive things that seem not so good for us; but help us to understand that you know what is best for us, that you give us our fruits in due season. When we open our hands you fill them with good things, and therefore, whatever comes from you, it is well with you and therefore, we also should accept it and say, it is well, it is well with our soul. Thank you, Lord!

 

Have you ever experienced God’s goodness in the whirlwind or the storm?

Too many of us go through the storms of life and God shows up in the midst, but, how many of us actually say, “Thank you, Lord, for riding out this storm with me, or, I could not have pulled through without you.” Too many of us saw the handwriting on the wall, or the footprints in the sand, but, we were so overwhelmed with our situation, that we missed the encounter with God. My brothers and sisters in Christ, know that God shows up in unlikely places, he walks with us through all of our dark hills and valleys, and he rides out the storm with us. Let us be thankful that the Lord showed up when he did, being mindful that he did not have to do this, but he did. Thank you, Lord!

 

Are you too busy complaining about what the Lord has not done, instead of thanking him for what he has already done?

We put so much focus on our situation, that, we fail to recognize when the solution comes. What we should be doing instead, is telling our friends and all who will hear, just what the Lord has already done for us, and that we will continue to praise him until he delivers us from whatever we are going through. If we learn to continually count our blessings and praise God in the midst of our struggles, we will find that God takes our yoke upon him and refreshes us. Praise the Lord!

 

What does your faith say about you?

If you have not been receiving the release that comes from God through faith believing, Scripture encourages by the lessons of the faithful, and it tell us, that, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, that we should lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and run with perseverance, the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, who is the Pioneer and Perfector of our faith.

Could you hide from God!

When God is ready to birth something new in your life, there is no way you could hide from his presence. Remember, that, his eye covers the whole earth and nothing is hidden from him. Let us make ourselves available to God and let him work his purpose out. Amen!
