18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.

TRUST

I believe the Lord and trust Him to do exactly as He says no matter the current circumstances. I know the He will do the best for me and trust Him to do that.  I believe you Lord, help my unbelief. 

10/31               Jeremiah 31:18

18 I have heard Israel saying, ‘You disciplined me severely, like a calf that needs training for the yoke. Turn me again to you and restore me, for you alone are the LORD my God.

BRING

Lord discipline me and bring me back in to your presence.  You know all things and You know my heart-keep us Lord or we would disappear.  Help us Father for we face desperate situations on an almost daily basis. Take our worry and give us Your presence. 

10/30               Judges 4:3

3 Sisera, who had 900 iron chariots, ruthlessly oppressed the Israelites for twenty years. Then the people of Israel cried out to the LORD for help.

HELP

The Lord will help you.  Cry out to him about your need.  Let Him know of your desperation.  He will hear you and will help.  The trustworthy and He is with us all the time.  He will reach out His hand and protect you.  He never deserts His children.  Lord Jesus help us. 

10/29               Ezekiel 14:10-11

10 False prophets and those who seek their guidance will all be punished for their sins. 11 In this way, the people of Israel will learn not to stray from me, polluting themselves with sin. They will be my people, and I will be their God. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!’”

BE

Be sure your sin will find you out.  The wheels of justice grind slowly with the Lord but they do grind thorough and complete. Know that Jesus loves you and stands ready to forgive you and bring you into the family of God but you have to choose. Don’t wait until it is too late to choose. 

10/28               Job 34:31-32

31 “Why don’t people say to God, ‘I have sinned, but I will sin no more’? 32 Or ‘I don’t know what evil I have done—tell me. If I have done wrong, I will stop at once’?

REPENT

Repent is not a thought it is an action.  Lord I have sinned doing this or this and I wil change immediately.  Forgive me.  Help me change-Your child.  Be quick to repent.  Keep short accounts with the Lord.

10/27               Hosea 2:6-7

6 “For this reason I will fence her in with thorn bushes. I will block her path with a wall to make her lose her way. 7 When she runs after her lovers, she won’t be able to catch them. She will search for them but not find them. Then she will think, ‘I might as well return to my husband, for I was better off with him than I am now.’

CARE

The Lord cares for you.  Once you are His child HE will never lose you.  His love is overwhelming.  Why is the Lord so concerned about us?  Because He declares that He is.  He is our wonderful and mighty Lord.  He is seeking to give us the wisdom we need to organize our lives. 

10/26               Isaiah 10:20

20 In that day the remnant left in Israel, the survivors in the house of Jacob, will no longer depend on allies who seek to destroy them. But they will faithfully trust the LORD, the Holy One of Israel.

HE

HE is the Lord. Great and mighty, He is over all things, He knows all things and He is intimately involved in our daily moment by moment lives.  He is the author and finisher of our faith. He is seeking those who are lost to bring them into His family.  The Lord is God and there is no other.  Jesus is Lord of all.  Follow Him. 

10/25               Psalm 78:34

34 When God began killing them, they finally sought him. They repented and took God seriously.

LORD

Jesus is Lord whether we accept that or not He is the Creator of the Universe and all things are under Him.  Cry out to Jesus, Lord Help Me!  He will. Repent (change your ways), recognize your great need and the Lord will bring you back!

10/24               Nehemiah 1:8-9

8 “Please remember what you told your servant Moses: ‘If you are unfaithful to me, I will scatter you among the nations. 9 But if you return to me and obey my commands and live by them, then even if you are exiled to the ends of the earth, I will bring you back to the place I have chosen for my name to be honored.’

RETURN

Do you find yourself a long way from the Father?  Claim His promise: “I will bring you back.”  He will, even if it appears to be impossible He will bring you back from your sin and sinfulness.  What do you need to come back?  Are you tired of the pain?  To be away from the Lord once you have come into His family is to suffer and struggle. There is great joy and peace in Jesus. Come on back to the Father.  Ask for His forgiveness and He will forgive you and bring you back close to Him. 

10/23               Deuteronomy 4:30-31

30 “In the distant future, when you are suffering all these things, you will finally return to the LORD your God and listen to what he tells you. 31 For the LORD your God is a merciful God; he will not abandon you or destroy you or forget the solemn covenant he made with your ancestors.

ALWAYS

Our Lord Jesus is seeking us right this moment. When we come to Him and are saved He will never let us go.  It is tragic for His child to struggle and fail seeking to be self-fulfilled.  It is heart breaking to see all of their anguish and pain but Jesus is there to pick up the broken pieces and put us back together. He will never leave you.  There is nothing you can do will make Jesus desert you. You are ALWAYS HIS.  Jesus loves you.
