Never Lose Faith



You could be in the middle of a bleak situation and it appears there’s no hope. Dump the thought! This is from the devil. He wants to you lose faith because he knows the truth. That truth is that God will take care of you. Satan also knows that you can’t please God if you have no faith (Hebrews 11:6). In case you don’t know what faith is, it’s what you want, but you don’t see it. Because you don’t see it doesn’t make it not real. You don’t see your pay check until you’re paid. Does that mean you stop believing you will get one at the end of the week? If you didn't believe you would get paid, you would ask for your pay upfront.



      There was a couple in the bible had a temporary faith amnesia. Abraham and Sarah thought since they were old, they wouldn’t have a child of their own. So Sarah sends her husband in with a pretty maiden to conceive a child. When it was all said and done, they created a problem that could have been avoid if they keep their faith and waited (Genesis 16:1-6; Genesis 21:2).


      Point is this: God is real and He will do what he says. Search through all your blessings right now. Didn’t God give you many of the things you wanted? He also gave you things you didn’t ask for. You trusting in Him means a lot. Don’t lose faith when what you see looks dim. Believe in the One who holds all things in his hands. Keep the faith.

Understanding It Better By and By

    Funny how life has a way of showing you what you’re made of.  When adversity hits, what you say you wouldn't do becomes easier to do.  When the rubber meets the road, yes! you do the unthinkable.  Let's say you have a house fire and on the second floor is your baby and mom. You can only save one, which would it be? I've heard many say they would grab the baby since mom has been around a long time. I couldn't say.  I'm not in that situation right now.  There's no way to know what to do until tragedy hits.  Some can handle atrocities, whereas; other have no clue how to maneuver suffering nor know why hardship occurs.  Stop trying to figure out why hardships happens--only the Father knows.  He won't  have you guessing long.      The underlining reason at the end of your trials gives away the mystery. Experiencing hardship isn't fun but you will come out with more insight than ever before....

Trust God

Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight ( NIV ). “Police, Police, a young man stole my bike.”   Minutes earlier the gentleman stops at the local store. Thirsty from the summer heat, he decides to get a drink.   Dismounting his bike, a kind young man greets him with a smile and offers to watch the bike. Grateful for the offer, the gentleman hands over the bike.   He enters the store. On returning, the bike and young man had vanished. The gentleman had a good heart, but he had misplaced trust.   Trust in the Lord is paramount (Hebrews 11:6). Life cannot be maneuver through our wisdom, we need the wisdom of the Savior.   He alone can handle our life cycle issues.   A fulfill and successful life with Jesus comes through obedience and surrender. The Lord then guides us into an everlasting peace despite difficulties and h...

Sabotage

It’s those times when you do the wrong thing for the right reason you get caught. Those moments catch you off guard. It almost happened to me. While going out the door, a thought came to me to take my gun. I figured after the boys’ baseball game, I would go to the gun range.   Here’s the deal, the baseball game was on base. The base has a strict rule about bring artillery on its grounds.   To ensure everyone adheres to the rule, security police checks cars as a preventive measures. Thus far, my car hasn’t been checked—yet. Satan whispered in my ear to take my gun with me. Security police won’t pull me over. Besides, it would take me 45 minutes to go back home to pick it up after the game. If I bring it, I can save gas and time. Now, just because that sound good in my head doesn’t mean the scene would play out that way. I felt like I was being setup. Someone else in the Bible was setup like this: Judas. What made him think betraying the Son of God was a good thing? It mu...
