But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.
-Isaiah 53:5
CHRIST TOOK OUR PLACE AND SUFFERED OUR PUNISHMENT FOR SIN.
When you seek God's presence and request Him to intervene in your situation,
you can see miracles happen!
And if your miracle hasn't yet happened don't loose heart,
because God is always faithful!
"Beloved, once God gives you a promise from His Word, it’s not for you to
struggle and conjure up faith to make His promise come to pass. You
cannot make the miracle happen—only God can. You are to rest in Him who
has promised, rest in His faithfulness, and you will experience your
miracle!"
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me
[Chorus]
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Verse 2]
When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so good to me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me
You have been so, so kind to me
[Chorus]
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Bridge] There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me There's no shadow You won't light up Mountain You won't climb up Coming after me There's no wall You won't kick down Lie You won't tear down Coming after me
[Chorus] O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
"Our natural tendency is to talk about the problem or “mountain”. God, however, wants us to speak to the mountain and not about
the mountain. So instead of complaining about your problem to others
and even to God, speak to your mountain!
Use your God-given authority in
Christ and command the problem to go!"
The Bible tells us many many times "FEAR NOT". Why so? Because one of the enemy’s most popular weapons that he uses against us is fear, worry and anxiety. There are so many things we are afraid of and yet reality tells us that so much of what we spend our time worrying about never even happens.
But the great thing to remember when fear sneaks around is that in good times or bad time, God is with you and will never leave you nor forsake you.
I truly love how it's written in Isaiah 54:14 that "every one of your worries will be taken far from you.
What are you afraid of?
Pray like David did:
When I am afraid,
I will trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
In God I trust; I will not be afriad.
What can mortal man do to me? -Psalm 56:3-4
“When I am afraid of _________, I will trust in you, O Lord.”
Don’t change yourselves to
be like the people of this world, but let God change you inside with a
new way of thinking. Then you will be able to understand and accept what
God wants for you.
You will be able to know what is good and pleasing
to him and what is perfect.
But I was so blessed when I found these encouraging words by Tauren Wells about selecting our source...
Often it so easy to let the circumstances influence our lives and forget who our source is.
But when we select right and select God who has everything in the palm of His hands to be our source we can be secure that we have the best helper ever beside us.
So today let our prayer be:
Jesus be the center of my life; because nothing else really matters!
I have watched this video so many times during this week and I have been really blessed by it.
So I pray that it will bless you too!
