Social Unrest verses Joy Unspeakable
Riots, Pandemic, Racism, Joblessness, schools closed, uncertainty, Food Banks, political wars, social injustice, deaths, earth quakes, destruction and National conflicts.
Persecution of Christians, health issues, credit card debt, stimulus questions, all of these things have something in common. They steal your joy.
Here is something you can trust. God's word says He gives you Joy Unspeakable and full of glory. 1Peter 1: 8+9
How can all of these things be going on around us and still we can sit in our homes, at our jobs or even at a shopping mall without fear and be full of joy? What do some people have that others do not. While some claim they have faith yet live in fear, this is an absolute contradiction.
Fear = False Evidence Appearing Real This is something that true Christians understand. Jesus Christ is real. His death and resurrection and ascension are also real. His blood covenant poured out for us because He is loyal to His Father and HIS Father is our Father! We can trust that as Jesus was raised from the dead so are we guaranteed life eternally! We have no fear of what the devil can do because we know he is a liar and already defeated. We do not have to concern ourselves of the outcome of our circumstances because we know the end before it happens. Live or die I am alive in Christ.
No amount of debt or social injustice can take us out of God's hand. No one can change the mind of the one who is totally in love with God! Our trust is in Him. Our hope is in Him. We know beyond the shadow of any doubt the He cannot lie and He is with us forever and ever! We are eternal now! We belong to the most powerful, loving and righteous King of all time. He is King forever and because we are His we never have to be concerned of what tomorrow will bring.
We pray for others who do not have the hope we know, we pray for those who do not know intimately the personal relationship with King Jesus. We pray for all those who hate and choose to do harm that they will be free by the blood of Jesus and know what true happiness is.
Only the love of God can give you such peace, such rest and Joy Unspeakable and full of glory no matter what happens around you.
Today, if you do not have this deep with in you, all of us who do pray for you to seek the Lord with your whole heart mind soul and strength so that you to will repent of your sinful human nature and take on the privilege of being a spirit led child of God. Then you will have Joy unspeakable no matter the situation you are going through. No one can take it from you once it is planted inside of you by God's Holy Spirit.
Won't you join us today. Get rid of the burden of guilt, sin, hate and fear and invite Jesus into your heart today in the name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. Today you can be one with HIM!
John 17:20
