Do God's Work and all Your Needs will be Met | Fri May 23, 2014 12:22 am by Camille | God always provides for our needs according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
As long as we are doing the work of the Lord God will always meet our needs. As long as we are pointing others to God, He will always see that you have plenty.
Do the work of the Lord share what you know from the bible and share your testimony of how you were healed or set free and God …

| "I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint." (Jeremiah 31:25)
Many years ago our first grader, little white suitcase in hand, was ready to leave in search of a better place. She had been invited to go to her room to think over some behavior, and apparently thought it the perfect time to pack up and get out of Dodge. I watched from the window as she doggedly made her way to the end of the sidewalk. At the street corner she sat down on the little suitcase, pondering her next move.
Have you ever had a day where you are just ready to throw in the towel and say, "Enough's enough!"? A redundant question, as we all have had, or will have. It's just part of life. We never know what kind of curve we might be thrown, as much as we plan things out. Some days you feel like packing up, cashing it all in and running away to a south seas island.
A geographic change doesn't work, though. And as often as we've heard the saying, 'When you get lemons, make lemonade', that doesn't always do the trick either.
I walked outside and walked back home with my daughter; the moment had passed and everything was fine.
God has a great message for us in how to handle times like that. The message is He wants to handle it for you. All you have to do is come to Him. In Matthew 11, Jesus says, "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened...and you will find rest, relief, ease, refreshment, recreation and blessed quiet for your souls." Because He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, we know His Word is true and He makes good on His promises.
The next time you think of packing up and running away, remember there's somewhere to go and Someone to go to first.
That's good news.
"The Lord is my shepherd... he leads me beside still waters, he refreshes my soul." (Psalm 23:1-3) | |

| Awesome testimony of God's word reminding us that He will Take Care of Us, "if we let Him!"
I love that passage of scripture verses that so touches my heart because with each test and trial God does bring us a way if escape and He really wants to take care of us but so many are so independent these days they hate to give Him any room so they deny Him His fatherly duties and that makes Him sad. It will not harm you to allow God to do what He sees perfectly normal Fatherly things for us and we open that door and say come on in Father God I love your ways more then I do mine. And He will come in and He will take control of the wrong things in our lives and set us on a course of peace and joy in our lives, then it is smooth sailing to the desired haven as it says in Psalms 107.
Blessings to you (((Ingrid))) keep up the wonderful devotions you post each day we are all thankful for you!!! | |
