PEACE BY TRUST

PEACE BY TRUST

Isaiah 26:3

You will keep in perfect peace
him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in you.
--------------------------------------------
Because of atmospheres of trials and persecutions, many of us tend to struggle out our own way without calling unto the father.
It is common that whenever you are buried into a problem, you tend to forget and try your personal luck out of that problem.

It is not how much you try that will set you free from that that has pressed you against the wall. As Christians, we clearly know that our war is not against flesh and blood. Our war is against the principalities of this dark world. We have occasionally talked about the number of times the devil is at work in this world. He doesn't work just on Monday, he doesn't just work on Tuesday...nor does work on Wednesday. The devil runs to and fro this world. He seeks for whom to destroy. He runs day and night throughout. 
And yet , we don't work day and night. We work and have rest. We don't pray day and night. We pray and have sleep. But to the devil and his untiring agents, they work day and night even when we are asleep.

That clearly means that we are not living alone. There is someone who also works day and night; who is fighting the battles. That person also never tires. He is never worn out. He is fully empowered and runs as you sleep. We cannot solve all of our life problems. We can only trust that person to fight for us. His name is Jesus. Trust in the Lord...and you will have peace. Thinking round and round your problems will not bring you peace . It is peace by trust. Just let everything go into the hands of God. 

Now , like the Bible has described a character of one who trusts in God, that person has a steadfast mind. A steadfast mind is one that is focused to one thing and not switching from one to the other. It is a mind that looks at God alone and knows that for sure, all is well when there is God. That mind gets peace by trust.  
Just settle your mind today. Just relax today. Just stop to think too much of your troubles. Just stop worrying about your ends. When God is on your side, nothing will press you to death or to shame. Trust in God alone. Don't trust something else. Have God in your mind as a sole fighter. Let God take control of what He is supposed to control. There is a hope beyond your day today.
 
                       GOD BLESS YOU

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...
