Good Thursday to all and GOD Bless! I pray all are doing splendidly this eve! Mid-90's now here, but comfy.
Opened up to 2 Chronicles again, different message to share.
I hope, as always, that you get some meaning from the daily messages, and they help you in some small way at least.
The Lord has kept the promise He made..................Lord, the GOD of Israel, there is no GOD like you in Heaven or on earth--you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way..................But will GOD really dwell on earth with humans? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain you..........Hear from Heaven, your dwelling place; and when you hear, forgive...............teach them the right way to live.......Forgive, and deal with everyone according to all they do, since you know their hearts(for you alone know the human heart), so that they will fear you and walk in obedience to you..................for there is no one who does not sin.........we have sinned, we have done wrong and acted wickedly..............forgive your people, who have sinned against you........................He is good; His love endures forever.................I have heard your prayer...When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among My people, if My people, who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.............But if you turn away and forsake the decrees and commands I have given you and go off and serve other gods and worship them.......
This temple will become a heap of rubble. All who pass by will be appalled and say, 'Why has the Lord done such a thing to this land and to His temple?.....Because they have forsaken the Lord, the GOD of their ancestors, who brought them out of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, worshiping and serving them--that is why He brought all this disaster on them.........
Seek the Lord always and know that He has forgiven those who worship Him and acknowledge Him. If you turn away from Him and worship other gods in the form of idols, which again can be anything, any place, any person. Then why should He help you?. Turn away from such things and turn to Him.....
There are times in life when we are missing or short on either money, time, health, energy and we begin to feel stressed and anxious. Read Psalm 84, for it is a good one to help lift you. These times are the perfect time to turn to Him. Focus on the now and leave the future to Him, this is what He wants. Live in the present moment not the future, for the future is upon you each millisecond and the present is past each millisecond. Time passes too quickly to worry about anything but the now. Our minds are not made to handle all three periods of time at once. Accept this and live the moment, be thankful for the moment each day. We are raised and taught to be self-sufficient and independent and that is good, but we reach a time when then we need to give over control to GOD. It is a myth, this independence we think we have. All things can disappear in the blink of an eye. Health, wealth, possessions, people. .........
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds....James 1:2
And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for thee, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that power of Christ may dwell in me.....2 Corinthians 12:9
GOD Bless! Jesus is Marvelous!
