Quotes

As we descended, the cabin was blanketed in silence except for one baby’s muted cry that seemed to float in the air with us. Suddenly, I felt peace drift over me. From the serenity came a young woman’s voice. “Are we having an emergency?” she asked. (Chapter 6)

Caring

by Margaret D. Mitchell
Week of August 12, 2007


“Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall.”  ~Psalm 55:22  “. . . I will trust in you.”  ~Psalm 55:23n

When God sends us into new territories, including new job assignments, He goes before us and makes a way.  He already knows what challenges await us, and He sets the stage of opportunity for greater glory.  He releases His strategy to us as we seek Him.  He walks with us.  And if we remain close to him and carefully obey Him in the journey, we make it through the minefield of trials, testing and temptation with the least amount of pain and the greatness measure of supernatural joy and reward.  The purpose of this is to glorify Him, build our trust in Him and accomplish His mission for Him.

            In Psalm 55, we find a very distressed David.  He is surrounded by chaos, lies, death and evil opposition with his only escape being God.  David knew that when he called to the Lord, God would save him (vs. 16).  And so he sung sacrificial praises and declarations of God’s truth concerning righteousness and evil.

             David could not have understood what to do or where to turn unless he knew the very character and heart of the God he served.  Even in these torrid circumstances, God was developing David’s character to align more with His. The only way such a great level of trust could have been forged in David was through experiencing situations such as these.  Indeed, count it all good. 

Surely, like David, total dependency upon God, is our (re)finest hour.  Crossroad journeys invite us to choose life and offer God all the glory moment by moment and in our testimonies.  God cares enough to set us up in “impossible” situations so that our only way of escape is He.  He is sufficient, more than enough, our ultimate provider.  And if, in our limitations, we depend fully upon Him, He is honored.

When we walk in righteous obedience to God, He takes care of all that comes against us for us.  He fights our battles, and He promises to protect us.  Even though evil looms, it will not defeat us.  Even when the calling is bigger than we and everyone and everything around us seems to oppose us, we do not have to worry because when such opposition comes against us, it simultaneously comes against God and His purposes and plans.  God will only allow evil for a while before He releases His judgment.  Indeed, God is always in control.  He is faithful.  His timing is perfect, and He never forsakes us.

Nahum chapter 1 says, The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble.  He cares for those who trust in Him (vs. 7). . . . He will pursue His foes into darkness (vs. 8).  Whatever they plot against the Lord He will bring to an end; trouble will not come a second time (vs. 9).  Now I will break their yoke from your neck and tear your shackles away (vs. 13).

And consider 1 Peter 5:6-7 which says, “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time.  Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.”

             Indeed, God cares.  If you’re experiencing pressing burdens or brick walls of opposition, know that no weapon formed against you shall prosper.  Nothing will block God from achieving His purpose through you if you will confess that you cannot do it alone, beseech Him for His help, praise Him in the midst, don’t give up in the war, remain obedient and trust Him along the way.  Surely, you will succeed.




And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love.
Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.

1 John 4:16
