“Have I not commanded you be strong and courageous, do not be terrified, do not be discouraged for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” God spoke to Joshua in His Word, and He speaks to me as well.
How about you?
I seek to look away from the distractions of this world and look to the One Who loves me, and you, (and every single human being on this planet, for that matter), with a perfect love, our Jesus, there is no fail.
Because God’s love never fails.
Join me?
Let’s join the choir to sing joyful songs of thanksgiving to our King. It’s time for a wedding song: Psalm 45:1,
For the director of music. To the tune of “Lilies . . .” A wedding song. My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.
There is a time for everything. Today, I will, you will, we will persevere and overcome as we humble ourselves and adore our King and give Him the glory due His name.
“Afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted,
I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,
your foundations with lapis lazuli (Isaiah 54:11).
God will rebuild us. We can trust Him. He is faithful and true. The good theme is His Word:
I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones (Isaiah 54:12).
Will we hear the Word of the Lord? Will we let His Word encourage and heal?
All your children will be taught by the Lord,
and great will be their peace (Isaiah 54:13).
I will . . .
believe God.
In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.
Terror will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender to you Isaiah 54: 11-15.
We can count on Him. Only God can make all things good for those who love him: And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose Romans 8:28.
Today, I will point to Jesus. He’s all I need.
Jesus is the name above every name. The name we can count on. He keeps all His promises.
Let’s spend time each day knowing full well each and every promise He has given to us.
