I’ve always prayed for His glory. But this time, I took my mind totally off myself, the world’s needs and even the needs of the church, and just prayed about His glory alone as He works through us and His bride. I prayed about everything in accordance to His perspective.
As I was praying today, the Lord spoke to me about my struggle in sanctification. He made me realize that I was the one making my problems more intense.
Joy in God is… to live Coram Deo, before the face of God. Delighting in my King, and He in me. To be my Beloved’s and the dear Beloved mine.
Today, I was just reminded by the Lord of His divine sovereignty. Its amazing how our minds can become dull from such an amazing reality! I’ve read about His sovereignty so many times and I believe it with all my heart. But it still strikes me hard every time I get a glimpse of it! Ah, how wonderfully deep and unfathomable is the character of our God!
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God’s power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Oh, what a wonder. He knows us, dies for us, and He has again for us!
“…what is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You care for him?”—Psalm 8:4
If you are a genuine Christian who has been regenerate, you are…
What a tremendous blessing it is to have the living word of the living God in my hands. Yet who am I but a bucket of dust before him? Failing and falling each moment? Yet still not a single promise from that blessed Word will ever be blotted out.
