Words Of Comfort

When the last power tumbles, Jesus will reign, and there will be peace In the valley for me. 

Psalm 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

In a land where we’ll never grow old. 

The King is coming. 

Because He livesuse I can face tomorrow. 

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Walk With Jesus

Life threating perils surround David, but he still wants to do the will of God. This ought to be the goal of every saint. We would do well to pray his prayer every morning. 

Psalm 143:8,10 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee. . . Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

When we fail to walk with the Lord we bring dishonor to Him and discouragement to our hearts. Without God we can do nothing. 

A daily walk with Jesus is a path out of dark valleys. With God’s help we can beat the circumstances we fear. Don't let it beat you. 

A daily walk with Jesus helps us to shine for His glory.

Reach Out To Jesus

I believe that the God who controls the path of every atom in every molecule in this universe has time for you when you call on Him in faith. 

Many come to Jesus because they are afraid of Hell. Their faith is small and they don’t understand the deep things of God. 

But Jesus sees their small, humble faith as they reach out to Him, and He saves them. 

Soon they discover they got far more than a fire insurance policy.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

When a sinner reaches out to Jesus in faith (even a small amount), He saves them and changes them. 

When believers bring their problems to Jesus in faith, our compassionate Lord still cares. He is still mending broken hearts and drying tears. He still answers prayers.  

Reach out to Jesus. He’s reaching out to you.

God’s Sovereign Leadership

God put the Apostle Paul in prison so he might expand his ministry. He had a lot of time on his hands, and he used it to write many of his epistles. He also told people about Jesus and some, even in Caesar’s household, were saved. 

The path of life never takes us where we imagine. We rarely know what’s best because we lack information. We can’t see very far down the road.

If you are saved, and you belong to the Lord, you are under His direction. He determines where the path of life leads you.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Regardless of where we find ourselves in life, we must come to the place where we are confident in God’s sovereign leadership or we will never have peace and joy.
