One of the reasons I rush into my prayer room in the morning, is because I'm excited for what God has to say to me, and hopes that I can encourage you. I put on my worship music first, to drown out any thoughts. It quiets my heart so I can listen.
Have you ever felt like peace is just impossible some days? Unless it is received from Jesus, spending time in his presence, it is impossible. When he speaks, he creates peace. John 6 :63. The words He speaks, "are full of Spirit and life."
When I sit with Him, it's like, well He really is, sitting right with me. Everywhere I go, everything that comes to tempt me into worry or anxiety, He is there with me to deliver me, 1 Corinthians 10:13.
Things are going to come our way whether we like it or not, that will cause us to have worry or anxiety. God allows these things. But they are meant for us to seek Him and grow spiritually. To learn to apply His written word. To know His promises.
Even Jesus was led into the desert to be tempted, Matthew 4:1. But He knew how to battle, and those promises are for us to. When we feel anxiety or worry rising up, can we do like Jesus and say, "It is written."
Look at Job 1:8-12.. Luke 22:31.. You can see that the enemy is God's devil. He is a puppet on His string being used to cause us to fail. But God is growing us spiritually, if we can look at it from another perspective.
We need to turn our mind, eyes, ears, and heart to Him. If you don't have a lovely relationship with Him, you will only see it your way. You will blame God. Maybe even stop believing. That is exactly what the enemy wants.
Are you troubled? Hebrews 12:2, Then look to Jesus. Listen to Him, draw close to Him, by spending time in his word. You will be blessed. Confusion, worry, anxiety, will become still. There is no confusion, or worry, or anxiety in Jesus. John 14:27, "Let not your heart be troubled"....
Personally for me, my hope will always be His promises. Nothing can move His presence.
If you don't sense him, you moved. I pray He's your enough no matter what you see or feel.
For Your glory Lord
