"I have strength for all things in Christ
who
empowers me". Phil.4:13
What a great Scripture?!, but what about times in my
life that I just simply don't have the strength
to go
through my terrible trail?.
There is a song that says " He is the God of the valleys
and the God of the Mountains. The God of the good
times and the God of the bad times"
Sometimes we cannot understand W H Y???? certain
things must come our way. We see no good
that can
come from it, only tears pain and heartache..........
but our Heavenly Father knows all the answers
to all
our questions.
It is so important to stand in good relationship with
the Only living God who's Son's Name is Jesus
Christ,
yes our Heavenly Father at all times especially
in the
good times. When we experience the
"mountaintop"
times in our lives, then it is so important and
vital for
us to live very near to the Lord and to seek Him
and
His will in our lives with everything that is
within us,
for let me tell you this truth in this day.
Dear born again child of God, washed in the Blood of
Jesus Christ, when bad times come, you don't have
strength to pray for yourself. It is then when
we must
already be established in the faith.
Yes, in the Lord
Jesus Christ. Then it is the prayers of
others that we
need so urgently. If I neglected my relationship
with
the Lord and didn't keep it fresh and alive, I
will not
be able to go through the "valleys" of life and
the
"bad" times. ------ But if I have walked
with the
Saviour daily I find that in the troublesome times,
I
am even able to minister to those also in need.
-------
But dearest child of God, you who can sing with
me
the song "I will serve no foreign gods"
but Him and
Him alone, for there is None like Him, and no
one
else to even pray to. No one else gave his
or her life
for the ransom of my soul, so if I love and serve
and
walk with Jesus Christ and Him alone daily, every
hour
of my life, He will not only carry me through
the
difficult times in my life, but also help me to
be a light
to the world in such times.
May the Lord help you and me to walk with Jesus Christ
daily, to have communion with our Heavenly Father
all
day long, every day. -----Oh the bliss of walking
with
God and to desire nothing more. All worldly
values and "important" things then fade away in His presence.
And then to experience the fact that others see
Jesus
in us when we need Him so much in times of trail.
Yes, in the valley He restoreth my soul and it is then
that I can proclaim as it is written in Habakkuk
3: 19
" The Lord God is my Strength, my personal bravery,
and
my invincible army; He makes my feet like
hinds' feet
and will make me to walk [not to stand still in
terror,
but to walk] and make spiritual progress upon
my high
places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility]!"
