GOD HAS YOU IN MIND
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jeremiah 29:11 KJV
Main Text:
Beloved, the former things and issues of your life shall soon be gone. I can tell you beloved that ‘nothing do you o’. It seems some time we don’t know the status we have in Christ the moment we accept Him as our Saviour in life. It’s not an accident that you are saved it’s by grace and not of works so that you won’t boast about it.
Can you imagine the interest shown by the Lord over your case? God’s love for you is unimaginable. If He heard the cry of the children of Israel in Egypt (Exo.3:7-8) you can be very sure He’s seeing your secret tears and will surely come to you to remove your sorrow and replace it with joy. Listen to this: “He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” Psalm 126:6. In readiness for the new things that God will do, you must not allow yourself to be carried away with the things that He hasn’t yet done. Never allow fear to rest on you. It may take root and bring doubt along with it into your heart.
“They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.” Psalm 126:5.
The Lord is at work in you, therefore fear not nor get discouraged. The morning will soon be here. It shall be a new dawn and your fullness of joy shall come abroad to many. Your season for thanksgiving, praising and rejoicing for what God has promised to do for you especially in the second half of the year will surely manifest. I encourage you, wait patiently on the Lord and be of good courage. The Lord will strengthen your heart to return with your loads of miracles
Prayer: O Lord, please don’t allow me to get discouraged because I know these pain and burdens will surely be over
