Don't Panic! Help is Here!

So much going on all around the world in varying degrees, to the extent, that many are becoming discouraged because of such overwhelming situations or circumstances. God's word however, provides hope, encouragement, comfort and peace. "...You are My servant, serving on My side. I've picked you; I haven't dropped you. Don't panic, I'm with you. There's no need to fear for I'm your God. I'll give you strength, I'll help you. I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you." Isaiah 41:9-10 MSG.  Therefore, no matter what the situation or circumstance, there is help for God's people. If you can trust and believe His word, for every trial or test, multiplied grace is added to help you ride through every stormy season.  God never fails, He is faithful and will never leave or forsake His own. There is help for those who call out to Him; His name is a strong tower, a place of safety.  All things are possible to them that believe.  Stay encouraged knowing that God never fails, His love is everlasting.  In the wake of so much trouble or darkness- Don't panic; God is your help at all times. Praise Him; He is good, His mercy endures forever. He is worthy of all glory, honor and praise.  The Lord be with you.

Perseverance in All Seasons

There are times along life’s journey when expectations of successful endeavors clash with the daily reality of overwhelming challenges. However when seeking the Lord for directions-He steps into the middle of difficult or dead situations and speaks a life changing word. Sometimes it may seem as if you have exhausted all strength, resources to continue enduring under int...ense pressure. Nevertheless, it is amazing how God steps in, just in the niche of time, saying: push harder, further and deeper to receive a greater blessing. At the end of the day, all things work out better when we obey His plan. Never Quit; Never Give Up. Continue to press through every situation, every circumstance, standing on God’s word that will never fail. He is faithful; His love and mercy are everlasting. Having done all to stand, keep on standing in faith.
…Master we’ve been fishing hard all night and haven’t caught even a minnow. But if You say so, I’ll let out the nets. It was no sooner said than done- a huge haul of fish, straining the nets past capacity….Luke 5:5-6.
So let’s not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith.
Galatians 6:9-10.

Take the Next Step

Life is a journey, not a destination, consisting of many tiny steps to be taken; although, many times negotiating ups, downs, twists and turns along the way. Every finish line is a series of tiny, tiny, tiny little steps that must be consistently taken; however, not everyone is willing and obedient to press through difficulties necessary for taking the next step. If you can be faithful in small things, you can be faithful in greater things. Jesus said. “If any one comes after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily and follow Me.” (Luke 9:23). Each person’s cross varies in that each person is chosen to bear certain struggles according God’s plan. Commitment to following Christ is a continual practice of faith, obedience and daily taking one step at a time, one day at a time, in pursuit of divine purpose.  On the way to the next place in destiny, it is very important to have great expectations for realizing fulfillment, remaining confident in knowing that your steps are Divinely ordered.  It is your set time of favor; it is your turn to hear the Lord calling- take the next step; fight the good fight of faith and patiently endure life’s challenges.   In light of so many uncertain and challenging situations, it is critical to follow the Lord’s steps as He daily leads along the right path. Resolve to do things God’s way, in every situation, in every circumstance; at the end of the day, all things will work out favorably. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and everything else will be added to you. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free; So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men] then you are really and unquestionably free.  (Matt. 6:33; John 8: 32, 36) The kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a dealer in search of fine and precious pearls, who on finding a single pearl of great price, went and sold all he had and bought it. (Matt. 13: 45-46)
