Good Monday morning! The life of Job in the Bible, describes the unexpected trouble one can come up against. Through no fault of his own, disaster lurked around every corner. All Job saw was, trouble and more trouble. We read that God had a purpose in Job’s suffering – therefore, we can be assured, He has a purpose in ours as well. God brought good back into Job’s life, and He can do the same for you.
And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed, the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before. (Job 42:10, NKJV)
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. (Matthew 11:28-30, NKJV)
If you are labouring in any way, carrying a burden of any sort – Jesus says, “I will give you rest”. In my own words He says, “Lean on me, I’m gentle and lowly and will take you under my wing. I will lead you, not pull you… I will carry you along.” How can we resist so great an invitation today? Blessings to you…
“Call to Me when you are in trouble.” What an invitation from the God of the universe! If you have a problem which seems impossible to solve, or a temptation too powerful to overcome – let us do what the scriptures ask and ‘call to Jesus’. Pray. Whisper His Name. God cares like no one else. There is no doubt in my mind dear reader, Jesus saves. May you have a blessed day!
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. (Psalm 91:15, NKJV)
The Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken.
Jesus walks with me. I am not alone.
He will instruct me on which path to take.
His mercies are new to me each morning.
He forgives my sins and washes me clean each day.
He’s all that I need.
He will keep me from evil, because I trust in Him.
I will not be afraid, for the Lord is my Shepherd.
I will have an amazing week. In Jesus Name.
I am blessed indeed!
Similar to unpredictable weather, there are sudden storms in life that catch us by surprise. Allow me to encourage you today, God sees everything, He knows everything and nothing takes Him by surprise. Talk to your Heavenly Father today about all your dilemmas. I know, that I know, that I know, He can work out impossible situations. He is God and there is no one like Him.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. (Proverbs 3:5,6, NKJV)
