TRUST 2

Text :Job  13:15.

 *Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.* 

Today  we shall be looking at Job's resolution in the face of his predicament.

Job made up his mind to do two things even if God slay(kill) him:

1. He will yet trust in Him.

2. He will yet 
maintain his own ways before the Lord.

By this two profound statements, Job demonstrated his highest level of trust and commitment towards God. He also resolved never to be offended with God, but to maintain his own ways before the Lord.

 *When you find yourself in a predicaments, all you need do is trust in the Lord, rather than being offended with people around you or with God.* 

Though the main problem (trial) of Job was initiated by the devil, yet he did not arrogate his predicament to anyone. Job knew too well that nothing happens without God's consent.
In the same vein, the best way to deal with all oppositions, predicaments, challenges and temptation is to know that nothing happens to a true child of God without God's knowledge. (Lamentation 3:37). When you arm yourself with this knowledge, it helps you take a position with God, and as you do, God becomes your avenger. (Rom 12:19).

As you align yourself with God in full Trust in Him, He avenges you. He will show up for you. He will fight your battles. 

May you find grace to TRUST in the Lord again. 

 
Bible Reading : Daniel 3:16-18.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. Lord, give me grace and strength not to be offended in you.

2. Father, help me to trust you though I may not understand what you are taking me through.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
