This is a word for you who feel your life looks hopeless…
GOD SAYS~
Fear not for HE has called you by name, HE has set you apart for Himself.
You are chosen and HE delights in you. HE has put His Spirit within you to counsel comfort and to complete the work HE has begun in and through you so HIS name will be glorified. HE will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert for you are HIS chosen people. When you pass through rough waters HE will be with you and they shall not overwhelm you for HE is there to carry you high above every wave. Face each wave head on and look on them as a challenge to change and conquer with courage with great strength in the Lord. When David saw Goliath he was faced with a great tsunami that day but instead of running from it he looked on it as a challenge and was willing to change and not rely on his own thinking or on others but decided to conquer the giant with courage as he relied on the strength of the LORD. Let’s do the same as we are faced with giant waves in our everyday life. Let us also look on them as a challenge to change our way of thinking and conquer with courage great strength in the LORD to overcome each one.
GOD also at times takes us out of our comfort zone and puts us in a place we don’t like and we may feel uncomfortable with it but through the heat of the process HE is stretching us as far as HE needs to and makes us more flexible to expand us to reach higher horizons. HIS word says When you walk through the fire the flames shall not burn you nor consume you for HE covers you with His grace and glory to protect you from all harm. HE refines and refinishes the work in you as HE transforms you from glory to glory only to be more like HIM. Let the flames of fire burn a deeper faith in God more and more. 2Cor.2:16 Isaiah 43
So take up your shield of faith do not give in to fear and follow where HE leads. You will see and do greater things than you ever thought possible as HE works through you this day and always. Don’t ever forget where you came from and always remember how GOD brought you through thus far and HE will take you the rest of the way. HE will make a way through every struggle even through sleepless nights HE’LL give you HIS peace. HE won’t forget you and remembers all HE has told you and HE will always make a way. HE will do a new thing for you, in you and through you, has HE not said it? Can you not see it, nor believe it? Call upon HIM and share together and HE will show you again the great and mighty things HE longs to do for you, for there is nothing impossible for our GOD. HE has declared and saved and proclaimed and you are HIS witness that HE is the LORD our GOD who was and is and yet to come.
I have created you and formed you there’s no need to fear
I have redeemed you I will always be near
You are My treasure I’ve called you by name
You are my chosen no longer in shame
As you pass through deep waters I will be there
Nothing can harm you so cast all your care
When you walk through the fire you shalt not burn
Nothing will harm you wherever you turn
For I am beside you holding your hand
From glory to glory I’ll help you to stand
You are created to show forth My praise
In all that I do for you the rest of your days
Watch what can happen if you only believe
Above and beyond what you ask you’ll receive
~Your Heavenly Father~
Dear Abba Father
I will not fear for You have called me
and set me apart and I belong to You.
When I walk through the waters I will not drown
For You hold me up above the waves of life
that threaten to overwhelm me. When I walk
through the fiery furnace of affliction I will
not burn neither shall the flame touch me
for You are my shield and protection from
all harm. As I call unto You with faith in my
heart You will answer and show me greater
things that I know nothing about.
I thank You Father for being a God who
is able to do exceedingly abundantly
above what I could ever ask or think.
Thank You Father for Your promise.
In Jesus name
Amen and Amen
