I am writing this post more for myself than anything. Yesterday, was a challenging day to say the least without going into details. I woke up this morning, positioned myself in my comfy chair and prayed God would speak to me, just me. (by the way, as I am writing this, these words were deleted once, by I don't know what, maybe the devil, I am sure he does not like what I am writing now). I normally read three devotionals that I just love and then read through chapters in the Bible. As I read each devotional, just look what I scribbled down from each one.
First one, Fret Not, Psalm 37:7 "Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret"
Second one, Trust ME, I am taking care of you, Proverbs 3:5 "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;"
Psalm 20:4 "May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. "
Third one, Our Shield, Proverbs 30:5 " Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him."
And fourth, All I need is God! Matthew 4:4 "Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God."
Now I would say, God was definitely speaking to me today. I pray for peace, I pray that God will let me memorize and be able to quote his words all through the day to stand against the devil. I love you God, and I give my life to you. You are my King!
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Surely, Goodness and Mercy will follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. For I know the plans I have for you, to prosper you and not harm you, to give you hope and a future. Amen!
