THE DARK MOMENTS IN OUR LIVES

*THE DARK MOMENTS IN OUR LIVES*

_Key Bible Text:_
*_The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all;_* (Psalms 34:19 (NIV))

_Bible Insight:_
If you want God’s best for your life and desire to be used by Him, at some point you’ll have to travel the road of adversity. This means that God can and will use adversity in your life for a good purpose—and yet, sadly, many people view adversity as only negative and defeating. But you don’t have to be among them.

God has designed adversity, regardless of its source, to become a turning point from which you take your greatest leaps forward in spiritual growth. He allows adversity to remain in your life only until He accomplishes His purpose in you. He will not keep it in your life one second longer than is necessary.

Through adversity, God is molding you into a mature and effective servant. When you know Christ as your Savior, God sees you as a saint—sometimes struggling, sometimes falling, but justified, redeemed, forgiven, and reconciled to Him. He sees a person full of His unconditional love, indwelt by His presence, sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, whose name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. He also sees all of your potential—all the good you could accomplish for His kingdom. So take comfort—adversity won’t take up permanent residence in your life. But when it’s present, it can develop good things if you’re willing to trust Him. Therefore, no matter what dark moments you may walk through, be confident He’s going to bring you into the light. And when He does, it will certainly be worth it.

MEDITATION:
*The dark moments of our life will last only so long as is necessary for God to accomplish His purpose in us.*

FINANCING MISSIONS (II)

Image
*DAILY DEW 21ST/DECEMBER/2021* *FINANCING MISSIONS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.* (Galatians 6:2, 10 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ How do we get it?  Perhaps if I were to tell you how we do NOT get it, it would help. We do not raise it by means of suppers, bazaars, concerts, rummage sales, or oyster stews. Not because I am against these methods, but because they will not work. What does a business man do when he runs across a method that will not work? He scraps it, does he not?  Now listen. I am responsible, humanly speaking, for the personal support of three hundred and fifty missionaries. Every month of my life I have to get more than $25,000, or humanly speaking, they will starve.  How many of you business men carry as heavy a responsibility? What would you do if you had to get $25...

THE WAY OF THE CROSS (II)

Image
*DAILY DEW 16TH/SEPTEMBER/2021* *THE WAY OF THE CROSS* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.* (1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ *Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from both the penalty and the power of sin.* (1 Peter 2:24 New American Standard Bible) What are the benefits that accrue to us from following the cross, or carrying the cross to follow Jesus? In answering this, we need to understand that it is the death and resurrection of Jesus on the cross that gives the cross its power.  "1. Through Christ’s death on the cross, those who turn to Him are delivered from the penalty of sin." This is clearly the meaning of the words, “He Himself bore our sins in His body on the tree.” By using the word “tree” rather than “cross,” Peter no doubt had in mind Deuteronomy 21:22-23, where it pre...

TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS*

Image
*DAILY DEW 24TH/DECEMBER/2021* *TRUSTING AGAINST ALL ODDS* _Key Bible Text:_ *"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."* (Job 13:15 (KJV))  _Bible Insight:_ It's an uphill task trying to understand God's plan, especially when we can't make logical sense of what we see happening to and around us. But we aren't instructed to understand His plans, but to TRUST HIM and be secure in the knowledge that He's working everything to ultimately turn out for our good.  God won't mismanage your life. Trust Him with it and be willing and quick to obey His instructions even when they don't fit into your parameter of what's logical. One of the truest form of worship we can give to God is to TRUST Him - leaning our entire existence on the unchangeability of His nature and counsels. ❤ _MEDITATION:_ *In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.* (Psalms 71:1 (KJV)) *#Chibuikem_...
