As place is reached
Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009God prepares a place for us, and He intently reserves this, as He knows that we desire to conquer over the problems in our life. As God is with us, He will ferry us to the desired place even a place of worship. In the midst of impetuous journey, we should be assured that finally we should come to the place we long for and even be tranquilized having rested in that place. Then as we have reached this place, we shall burn the boat that ferry us that we may not look back to our past.
We should not yield to any instance that may give us the temptation to look back, and now be determined, as we avoid being ruined to the memory of our past. We desiring to obtain repose must rest away from sufferings and be effaced of troubles as we settle to our choice. Likewise, even with the preempting occurrence of death as we pursue our goal, we shall still hound settling to our choice as the glory of God is hefted. As we seem to perceive, it is a reality that victory await us. In the times of assault, we should be strong to face apprehended instances as we keep holding on to the Lord. The promise of heaven will give us strength, as we also want to go in an empyrean or paradise.
We should be burning with desire even attacked by what we assume to be the Devils, as even these fiendish creatures, though seemingly treated as a state of mind, unless he is indeed true in existence, will not also surrender his territory, that’s why we need to evade from his region. As we once wanted to be helped, even discouraged, we should pursue our goal seeking compassion in our ministry, as victory is ahead of us. The darkest time of night is the hour before dawn for it is an irritating period of waiting. In the time that we cannot stand robust, with the help of our friends we can still be substantiated.
God will be with you to the point that we shall assimilate victory. Just keep sustained, and be enlightened that even with compulsion, we shall finally claim jubilation. We are afflicted in every way, but not constrained; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying about in the body the dying of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus be also manifested in our body (2 Corinthians 4:8-10). The puzzle is that, we have seen in the evening of our life that the dint of the problem is ruining us, and as its rapidity is very cogent, we cannot help but be annoyed. Likewise, we should not lose the mark that the journey imprints in us, even amidst problems and frustrations as we take a firm hold to the strength from God.
We should focus our eyes to that mark that by our sufferings, entwined in us is the assurance of God as we endeavor to complete our goals. Even if we avoid all measures that demure us, we are in a journey and are sustained to ride on to the predicament as it is the will of God that we are in a mission, even facing hard situations that we need to pursue giving in to occurrences of life as we depend to our sight by God’s guidance, even to the presence of miracles giving us various opportunities to grab.
Upon hearing the assurance, in the time desired for us, we shall come back fully resurrected, and a new being even becoming the man of God. So we are admonished not to turn behind in every wake but to grab willingly the promise in our life. We should not be deluded by situations as we have Jesus who lays the greatest gift, which is the bestowal in our vivacity, that we may endure, even battle the whiles of the Devil if he really exists. With us feeling sadness now and then, let us be open to Jesus and relate our troubles to him, even with closeness as we feel the nearness of his return.
It is high time that we should believe that we are facing a battle against the many problems in our life. We shall fight and we will claim victory. We need to stand and conquer even in the territory away from our desire. Though it is heavy for us to experience this, we need to claim the vow as many depend upon us, even the souls that are lost. The Lord comforts us with these words, “Just keep holding on my child, even the presence of Jesus is only grasped in our mind.” We would be glad to feel his embrace, much more, we will likely rejoice if we shall see him with our sight.
We need to pursue with our life and we need to tighten the loose belt even our girdle. Life is hard as trials come rapidly in our life, for in this present time, we are in the brim of the promise. Ahead of us is heaven, somehow almost by our grasp. It’s time to decide whether to serve the Lord or not. We should commit ourselves, as victory is not far off. Before we know it, we are already enjoying the blessings of God. The Lord wants us beside him when he comes.
It’s time to burn our past, even the ship that ferry us to the seemingly empyrean place, and not turn our backs from the Lord. We to defeat our reluctant spirit must pursue the battle towards victory. It’s time to give us to the Lord; no turning back sailing down to the isles for our life is with God, as He is our tower, a strong perfume of our delight. Blessed be the name of the Lord!
