Today’s Prayer Psalm 116:5-8
“Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;
Yes, our God is merciful.
6
The Lord preserves the simple;
I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Return to your rest, O my soul,
For the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
8
For You have delivered my soul from death,
My eyes from tears,
And my feet from falling”
Totally understand how easy it is at times to get discouraged when others do not respond.
ReplyDeleteWhether it is to godly counsel, God’s call or anything spiritual.
For me, during these days of illness, I have found myself frustrated, angry, giving up in ministry because of the lack of respect and response to God’s Word.
Like you, praise God, that He is teaching me not to look at the ladies being taught as rebellious women, but rather like sheep.
The picture is that these animals are dumb, stubborn and needy.
Sometimes people behave like sheep.
So I am learning to keep plowing, keep planting, keep praying…. God is Faithful to do the work.
Wow, let me share with you that this morning my devotion was Luke 11
Versus 28-32.
Check it out!
1. This evil generation still looking 4 a sign, rather than to go study and read God’s Word 4 signs.
2. Trip on who will stand up against these seekers at judgement day…
Nineveh, the Queen of Sheba and yes, Jesus Christ himself!
3. Like Jesus did and completed the work His Father called Him to do,
so should we!
It was finished with much heartbreak as the people that He came to save, rejected Him.
Let us too, remember that many will reject God’s work. It really doesn’t matter who is doing it.
But the few that we can reach, what a glorious blessing it is for them, for us and for heaven!
Amen…
