Our Lord is aware of our talents, strengths, and weaknesses. He sees our flaws and knows all about our mistakes, but it doesn’t deter him from placing His hand on us.
In Christ; abundant life! John 10:10b
Sermons on Isaiah
Sometimes God says no! It’s an answer to prayer we don’t often want to hear, especially if the solution is well within His power to say yes and would benefit us or those we love.
Psalm 34:18, “The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit.”
Does God like to play hide and seek? Maybe, I believe God loves it when we pursue Him. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13, NIV)
Numbers 6:24-26 recite the blessings of the Lord over the children of Israel. Through Jesus, it is still the heart of our Father for us today.
Psalms records, “Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.” (Psalm 119:105)
Our chances of knowing how to answer essential questions in-line with God’s Word produces presumption when we do it apart from reading and studying the Scriptures.
Our Lord isn’t afraid of the storms of life and the troubles that come our way. He’s the one who said, “Call to me, and I will answer you.” (Jeremiah 33:3)
Thank God for the shed blood of Jesus made available to us for forgiveness!
If we allow fear to rule in our lives, it takes on a crippling effect! It keeps us in constant anxiety and stunts our growth.
