ARE YOU READY?

Good Morning everyone, I hope all is well. I’ve been watching emmanuel.tv (if you haven’t checked this network out DEFINITELY tune in, just click the link because the Lord is doing amazing things through this ministry and you will be blessed). The message that has been playing is talking about being ready for Jesus Christ when He returns. Tomorrow is never promised to anyone, and we cannot take for granted the time we have NOW to know God. If we are ready to die, we are ready to live. We have to stay rooted in the Word & Love as that is the only we we can know and establish a relationship with Jesus. Jesus said “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6).” 

Trusting God in the Battle

This week has been a trying one for me, but I wanted to go ahead and encourage you all that no matter where we are or even if we do not notice, God is with us! . And all in all we have the victory in Him and He is our Sustainer! Spend time with Jesus, lean & rely on Him. “You will not have to fight this battle. Just take up your positions and wait; you will see the Lord give you victory. People of Judah and Jerusalem, do not hesitate or be afraid. Go out to battle, and the Lord will be with you!” (2 Chronicles 20:17)

Accepting You

Accept yourself because Jesus accepts you. You are beautiful in God’s eyes! See yourself as God sees you: Samuel 16:7 says “The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” The bodies/flesh we live in are temporary, but it’s our hearts & spirit that truly last and shine (Ecclesiastes 3:11)!  Do not let the enemy persuade or sell you lies that you are physically inadequate. Instead look to what God says about you  & speak positive to yourself (Proverbs 18:21), and let God show you YOU, and just how beautiful He has already made you!

Not Alone: God is For You

In the midst of our situations, God is with us: “The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” (Deuteronomy 31:8). And even when we feel like no one understands, God understands what we are going through!
