Peace
Good Morning, I pray that you had a well rested sleep and that you woke up full of joy. As for me, I stayed up till about 4 something this morning, I think. I watched the newest Samson movie. It was pretty good, definitely worth a watch. I couldn't sleep due to my sleeping routine is all over the place lol. This finding a new place to move, isn't helping. Not having the finances, nor even a place to call "Our Home", doesn't make things better. Whatever you can think of to say or think about our situation and circumstances, trust me, we've heard it already. To say that we haven't been stressed out, afraid, feeling forgotten, angry, worried, feeling abandoned, in fear, and in doubt; is all an understatement. Say and think whatever you want to think and say, you can't understand unless you walk in our shoes. Anyhow, regardless of all the negativity, which has only came from family really, it's all been not as bad as it seems. I know, I know, everyone thinks it's crazy that we're NOT running around like chickens with our heads chopped off, lol. Honestly, it's cause of the LORD. We have our dreams and visions. We have encounters that can only be orchestrated by God himself. For days on end, people have asked over and over of what we're going to do. For weeks, people has asked us, how do we keep going. For months, we have told people that we let the Spirit guide our lives as it says in Galatians 5:16. Even then, with fellow believers and brothers and sisters in the faith, that isn't good enough. In this last month, God has given us Faith and Hope over and over like never before. An no matter how much everything seems dark and unbearable, He shows himself countless times in this situation and circumstance, and all through our lives in this matter. Therefore, honestly, we just simply Trust in the LORD. Here are some scriptures and thoughts of how and why we just simply Trust and continue to serve our God.
Exodus 14:14 "The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace". NKJV
"The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent". ESV
"Jehovah will fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace". ASV
"The LORD himself will fight for you, Just stay calm". NLT
It doesn't matter which version you read, God will fight for you. Whether we hold our peace or be silent or simply just stay calm; none of that alters that the LORD will fight for us. That's something He has instilled in me in this season. Sometimes, most of the time, we allow ourselves to get into the way; when all we need to do is to be silent, stay calm, and hold our peace; while Jehovah himself fights for us. I know that I know that there is at least one event in your life where you tried absolutely everything you could, and nothing productive happened in the ways that you wanted and needed. But, as soon as you sat down; and you cried out to God, and you then just sat there while he worked, everything; Everything worked out as it needed and as you wanted. It is in that moment that you should write it on your heart, that you should stay clam, be silent, hold your peace, and let God fight for you. That's our biggest issue. We don't truly allow God into any situation or circumstance until we have done everything that we can do. Therefore, Always; KEEP GOD FIRST!!!!!!!!
How much do you Trust God? Is there a line that you have placed, where if God doesn't deliver you, that you will turn from him and Reject him? Have you ever said or thought that for any reason at all, you would Stop serving God? If yes, to any of these questions, then you should really think about how much you Trust God. In DANIEL chapter 3, it talks about 3 men that came to a point in their lives of being delivered from death. I encourage you to read that story over and over until God speaks to you. The greatest part for me is Daniel 3:17-18. It reminds me of what Jesus said when in prayer in Luke 22:41-43. On both accounts, the Trust in God is more than evident. It is Amazing how more and more scriptures are linked to our family scripture, Joshua 24:15 "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord". So I ask you, what will it take for you to 100% Trust in God; first and always, no matter what?
Therefore brothers and sisters, I leave you with this; no matter where you are and no matter what you're going through, you are Not alone. God is always with you. Trust in him first and like Abram; when there seems to be no reason to Hope at all, Trust in God for his promises is steadfast and everlasting. It all starts with Faith and it will always be sustained by Faith. Be still and know that he is God. Stay calm and hold on to your Peace, for Jehovah himself fights for you. In Jesus Name, may your life be filled with blessings upon blessings as you go out and as you come in. In Jesus Name, may opportunities like no other meet you on the way. In Jesus Name, may you have divine healing and prosper in all that you do.
We Love Y'all
