MORE THAN YOU CAN ASK OR IMAGINE

Do you know that God has deposited His power in you and is working in your life through His power that indwells you? God’s strength is perfected in your weakness. He shows up to be strong by helping you do what you otherwise cannot.

He is able to do more than we ask or imagine. We ask according to our limited knowledge but God does according to his infinite understanding. He knows the best for your life and He will do accordingly.

Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21.

GOD IS ABLE TO RESTORE WHAT IS LOST

We just went through a devastating storm in our area which is announced by the government as a very severe cyclone. People have lost their homes, farms and business places. The situation is disheartening and hopelessness is in the air.

When Israel was in such a state, God called Ezekiel to prophesy in to dead bones to live again. God asked His servant to speak life into what is dead and dry. That was a sign for the revival of the nation Israel. God is a God of restoration. He makes things new.

Even though you feel everything is totally gone, God is able to restore what is lost and destroyed. We need to come to God and rely on Him. Speak life and restoration. God is able to raise a mighty army out of rattling dry bones.

Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live. Ezekiel 37:5.

LET GOD FIGHT YOUR BATTLES

The biggest comfort for those who are in Christ is realizing the fact that God is on our side. God is willing to fight our battles if we learn to commit our lives to Him. You may have the strongest enemy in the world, but your defender is far greater than your enemy.

You can simply sit back and trust God for your defense. Trust in God today and let Him fight your battles.

If God is for us, who can ever be against us? Romans 8:31

3 POWERFUL INSTRUCTIONS 

FOR SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN LIVING

1 Chronicles 16:11-16.

We often go from one challenge to another. Sometimes, it becomes too trying that we are tired of life. How to live a successful faith-life in such circumstances?

1. LOOK TO THE LORD AND HIS STRENGTH, SEEK HIS FACE ALWAYS:

When your heart and your flesh fail, remember that God is the strength of your heart and He is your portion forever (Psalm 73:26). Surely God does not reject one who is blameless (Job 8:20). He will yet fill your mouth with laughter and your lips with shouts of joy (Job 8:21). Whenever Israel sought God in their distress, He rescued them in His strength.

But, remember to seek His face more than you seek His miracles. That is what truly makes God glad.

2. REMEMBER THE WONDERS HE HAS DONE, HIS MIRACLES AND HIS JUDGMENTS:

Remembering God’s wonders and miracles works in four ways:

• Glorifies God
• Shames Satan
• Testifies to people
• Lifts your heart

You are tremendously encouraged when you take time to reflect on the way God had brought you out of your past challenges. Never lose sight of the miracles you have experienced.

3. REMEMBER THE COVENANT HE HAS MADE WITH YOU THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS:

God made His covenant with Abraham walking between rows of animals cut into two separate pieces and each piece lay opposite to the other (Genesis 15:17). His life was counted for His covenant with Abraham. Time and again, God reminded the Israelites with the phrase, “As surely as I live” (Ezekiel 33:11).

And then, He sent Jesus to make a better covenant with us. Jesus died in order to bring the covenant into force (Hebrews 9:1-18). The Bible says we are in a better covenant than the one made with Abraham (Hebrews 8:6). Realize that the covenant you are now in brings you into forgiveness (Mathew 26:28), sonship (Galatian 4), righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:21), eternal life (Romans 6:2), healing (Isaiah 53:5), deliverance (Ephesians 1:7) and the list goes on and on. 

Remember, God’s promises never fail. Every blessing God has promised in His Word is yours.
