Everything’s Gonna Be All Right

A lot of people worry about the future. Did you know that if you are a born again child of God, everything's gonna be all right. 

There will be trials and valleys, but there will also be blessings and victory.

Remember that we serve a God who is already in the future, and He has promised to go with us— to lead us safely through.  

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Learn to face trials with faith, knowing that everything's gonna be all right. 

God Gave The Victory

The mission that Gideon had been called to do was impossible with man. He started out with 32,000 men and God reduced that number to 300. The Lord knew that if there was a large army they would believe in their own strength. 

Judges 6:16  And the Lord said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man.

These 300 men were no match for the Midianites, but Gideon had faith and God gave the victory. 

When you face bad situations beyond your control, don’t fret. God won’t lead you to where His grace can’t keep you.

When you realize you need the Lord, you are well on your way to victory. 

Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

When Jesus Comes

When Jesus comes, believers will leave this world behind and fly away to a better place, to spend eternity with Him and all those He redeemed when He died on Calvary.

When Jesus comes all pain, sorrow, separation, suffering, sin, and heartache will end  immediately. 

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Caught up, carried away and completely changed! Wow! I say with John, “Even so, come Lord Jesus!”

If we truly believe that Jesus is coming, we should be looking for Him, 2 Tim. 4:8—living like He might come at any time, 1 John 3:3.

We should be loving the lost, telling them the gospel message, Mark 16:15.

Will you be caught up to Heaven when Jesus comes for His own? If you will, rejoice and praise Him; If not, seek Him for salvation.

If you know Jesus, life gets better. That’s comforting. 

I Can Rejoice

When everything in the world is being tossed and twisted, God is my Rock. He forever remains the same.

Psalm 18:2 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.

I can rejoice that the Lord has been my fortress— a place of peace and safety to flee to during adversity. 

I praise Jesus for His saving grace—for delivering me from the chains of sin. 

I can rejoice in knowing that everything that happens is in God's plan and His control.  

I can rejoice that the Lord will be my strength no matter what I face. 

Only in Heaven will I fully comprehend the times God was my buckler, shielding me from unknown danger. 

As children of God, know that no one ever cares for you like Jesus. 

Showers Of Blessings

Luck or coincidence should have no place in the Christian vocabulary. Every good gift we receive comes from the Lord.

Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

Consider your salvation, your fellowship, your church family, the wisdom and growth you have obtained in the Lord; God gave that to you.

Being forgiven and accepted of Him is enough, but the Lord has much more in store for His children. 

One day our faith will end in sight. This life of heartache and pain will not last forever. We will hear our Savior call our name and will enter into the heavenly home He has prepared for us.

These blessings are reserved for those who believe in Jesus. 

The Death, Burial, And Resurrectiom

Who would believe that the Son of God would give up the splendor of heaven, come to earth as a man, suffer rejection, shame, and cruelty at the hands of sinful men. 

Jesus was willing to go to a cross for our sins, die there, and rise again from the grave. 

It’s something that can only be received by faith.

Our Lord, risen from the grave, conquered sin, death, and hell. He bore our sin and our shame on the cross. He defeated death when he rose from the grave.

We don’t have to live in despair and defeat. Because Jesus lives,, we have hope for the future.

John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Thank you, Lord for saving my soul. 

God Has A Plan For Your Life

The knowledge of God is a comforting thing.

He knows every possible thing there is to know about you—your deepest and darkest secrets, your thoughts, your motives, your plans, and your dreams.

Nothing that has ever come your way has taken the Lord by surprise. He has allowed it to happen for His own purpose and for your good, Rom. 8:28. 

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord , thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Sometimes the sufferings and burdens of life are greater than we feel we can bear, but in the midst of them we have some pretty spectacular promises. 

—God knows all about it 

—He’s there in the midst of it – Heb. 13:5; Matt. 28:20

—He cares about what we are facing – 1 Pet. 5:7, Heb. 4:15 

—He has promised grace to bring us through – 2 Cor. 12:9 

—He has promised rest in the midst of toil – Matt. 11:28

God has a plan for your life. Your duty is to walk in His will, Rom. 12:1-2. In the end you will end up right where He wants you, Phil. 1:6.
