Eternal Rock of Salvation we blessed Thee, have your way again in our lives and let Your Name alone be glorified in Jesus Name.
Beloveth, faithful is our God to be all that He has promised us and we believe with our heart that He is faithful and remaineth faithful till the end of time. If you believe that give a shout offering to the Lord. He is the King of kings, the Ancient of days, the Lion of the tribe of Judea. He is God and He liveth forever and ever.
When God says a thing, He goes ahead to fulfill it. It may seem unrealistic, it may look impossible, it may seems impossible, beloved, have you forgotten that we are dealing with an impossible God. The One Who nothing is impossible before Him. The One Who made the universe with a spoken Word and it came into being. that is the God we are talk about.
The God am talking about has eye that see the whole universe. His ear hears even the faintest cry for help. His Hand can touch the ends of the earth. His leg stretches from heaven down to earth, that is the God we are talking about, praise God.
For me I see nothing impossible before Him and my confidence in Him is secure because He is the God of all flesh. His thoughts towards me is good and will grant my expected end. Whoop. My God is good; all the time. Praise God.
Rejoicing comes with knowledge that God is not silence on that which concerneth you but He is ever working to perfect all that concerns you, praise God. As the Lord has given His Word concerning you is important that you search the scripture and find out what more will engender the promise of God in your life. Beyond searching the scripture, by the leading of the Holy Spirit get materials or persons that will help to resolve the challenge at hand.
Overcoming losses requires Wisdom from above. The Word of God said so. Whatever be your area of calling beloved, you need God’s wisdom to operate as will discover from the following verses please search the scripture now to see with your eyes that God knows that we need wisdom (Jesus) to get along. Ex 28:3; Ex 31:3, 6; Ex 35:26, 31, 35. Dt 4:6; Dt 34:9; 1 King 3:5; 1 King 4:29-34. Beloved read up the book of proverb 3 and 4. Do you know that it was wisdom God founded the earth through wisdom? So get wisdom if you want restoration of all that the locust has eaten from you and as you walk in it all that you have lost will be restored in Jesus Name.
Beloved, whatever be it you are going through the good Lord is more able to help you overcome. Though weeping may endure for a night but your joy comes in the morning. Because Christ is walking in that situation now. If that is your confession this morning please come along with me as we do the needful.
“Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” Psalm 30:5
Christian! If thou art in a night of trial, think of the morrow; cheer up thy heart with the thought of the coming of thy Lord. Be patient, for
“Lo! He comes with clouds descending.”
Be patient! The Husbandman waits until He reaps His harvest. Be patient; for you know who has said, “Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man according as his work shall be.” If you are never so wretched now, remember
“A few more rolling suns, at most,
Will land thee on fair Canaan’s coast.”
Thy head may be crowned with thorny troubles now, but it shall wear a starry crown ere long; thy hand may be filled with cares—it shall sweep the strings of the harp of heaven soon. Thy garments may be soiled with dust now; they shall be white by-and-by. Wait a little longer. Ah! how despicable our troubles and trials will seem when we look back upon them! Looking at them here in the prospect, they seem immense; but when we get to heaven we shall then
“With transporting joys recount,
The labours of our feet.”
Our trials will then seem light and momentary afflictions. Let us go on boldly; if the night be never so dark, the morning cometh, which is more than they can say who are shut up in the darkness of hell. Do you know what it is thus to live on the future—to live on expectation—to antedate heaven? Happy believer, to have so sure, so comforting a hope. It may be all dark now, but it will soon be light; it may be all trial now, but it will soon be all happiness. What matters it though “weeping may endure for a night,” when “joy cometh in the morning?”
Yes! joy comes in the morning because God is the portion of a believer: Let’s get going:
“Thou art my portion, O Lord.” Psalm 119:57
Look at thy possessions, O believer, and compare thy portion with the lot of thy fellowmen. Some of them have their portion in the field; they are rich, and their harvests yield them a golden increase; but what are harvests compared with thy God, who is the God of harvests? What are bursting granaries compared with Him, who is the Husbandman, and feeds thee with the bread of heaven?
Some have their portion in the city; their wealth is abundant, and flows to them in constant streams, until they become a very reservoir of gold; but what is gold compared with thy God? Thou couldst not live on it; thy spiritual life could not be sustained by it. Put it on a troubled conscience, and could it allay its pangs? Apply it to a desponding heart, and see if it could stay a solitary groan, or give one grief the less?
But thou hast God, and in Him thou hast more than gold or riches ever could buy. Some have their portion in that which most men love—applause and fame; but ask thyself, is not thy God more to thee than that? What if a myriad clarions should be loud in thine applause, would this prepare thee to pass the Jordan, or cheer thee in prospect of judgment?
No, there are griefs in life which wealth cannot alleviate; and there is the deep need of a dying hour, for which no riches can provide. But when thou hast God for thy portion, thou hast more than all else put together. In Him every want is met, whether in life or in death.
With God for thy portion thou art rich indeed, for He will supply thy need, comfort thy heart, assuage thy grief, guide thy steps, be with thee in the dark valley, and then take thee home, to enjoy Him as thy portion for ever. “I have enough,” said Esau; this is the best thing a worldly man can say, but Jacob replies, “I have all things,” which is a note too high for carnal minds.
Yes! a note too high for a carnal minds to understand. Because they don’t have the understanding and wisdom you have.
If you have God as your portion, hold on Him tight and never loose grip of Him, He is more than enough for you.
Receive wisdom to be all that God made you to be in Jesus Name.
Remain blessed in Jesus Name.
