Consider Him

Image
Just consider and meditate on Him who endured from sinners such bitter hostility against Himself [consider it all in comparison with your trials], so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. — Hebrews 11:3 (AMP) Consider: think carefully about our Savior. Look attentively unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. For the joy that was set before Him, He endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (See Hebrews 11:2 NKJV) When we consider all He did for us, our trials pale in comparison. Surely our griefs He Himself bore, and our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, and by His scourging we are healed. (Isaiah 53:4-5 NASB1995) Like those in the church of Ephesus, persevere, have patience, and labor for His name’s sake and do not become wea

We Overcome

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” — John 16:33 (NKJV) Surely, we will experience trouble and sorrows in  this world. Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. (Romans 8:37 AMP) Let us be courageous and confident because we too shall overcome. Praise Yahweh that we have the victory in Yeshua! You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. — 1 John 4:4 (NASB1995)

He Saves

“She will give birth to a son; and you shall call His name Yeshua, for He will save His people from their sins.” — Matthew 1:21 (TLV) No matter where we are in life, Yeshua is all we need. Apart from Him we can do nothing. (See John 15:5) He is the answer to every problem. Call His name “Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” (See Matthew 1:23) And in Matthew 28:20, He promises to be with us always, even to the end of the age.” He is our Rock and our Redeemer. He is the great Physician, our Healer. He is the good Shepherd Who leads us along on the path that leads to life. He is the way, the truth and the life (See John 14:6) May you get to know Him intimately, and be known by Him.

It is Good

Image
But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge and placed my trust in Him, that I may tell of all Your works. — Psalms 73:28 (AMP) Let us continually draw near to God with a genuine heart. The closer you are to Him the more likely you are to hear His still small voice telling you the way in which you should go. He softly speaks to you about His unfailing love, grace and mercy. Let us draw near with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. (Hebrews 10:22 NASB1995) It is for our good to draw near to God and when we do, He is faithful to draw near to us. (See James 4:8) “But I’ll keep coming closer and closer to you, Lord YAHWEH, for your name is good to me. I’ll keep telling the world of your awesome works, my faithful and glorious God!” — Psalms 73:28 (TPT)

Our Shepherd

Image
The LORD is my Shepherd [to feed, to guide and to shield me], I shall not want. He lets me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still and quiet waters. He refreshes and restores my soul (life); He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. — Psalms 23:1-3 (AMP) Learn to rest in the Presence of the LORD. He will refresh and restore your soul. He will make known to you the path of life; In His presence is fullness of joy; In His right hand there are pleasures forever. (See Psalms 16:11) In John 10:11,14, Yeshua says: “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.” He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. And when he brings out his own sheep, he goes before them; and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. (See John 10:3-4) Today, He is calling your name. Do you hear His voice? Follow Him.

Shine Bright

Do everything without murmuring or questioning [the providence of God], so that you may prove yourselves to be blameless and guileless, innocent and uncontaminated, children of God without blemish in the midst of a [morally] crooked and [spiritually] perverted generation, among whom you are seen as bright lights [beacons shining out clearly] in the world [of darkness], — Philippians 2:14-15 (AMP) “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; But the LORD will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you.” (Isaiah 60:1-2 NASB1995) No matter what you are going through let His light within you continue to shine. No grumbling or complaining.
