No Excuse


september 2018 daily prophetic chiastic structure

I know someone that tries hard to do what God wants her to. She has been going through some hard things all her life. Alll during her life, after becoming a Christian, God has  been with her meeting her needs and answering her prayers.

Still, in struggling with life and its problems, she doesn't always stay right where she needs to. Knowing with out a shadow of a doubt that God will continue to be right there with her, working on behalf, even when she can't see his work.

At night she worries too much she can barely get to sleep. So she puts on Christian music to help her go to sleep. And in the mornings, as soon as her eyes open, her problems are there again, and she has already let the enemy start his work on her to worry, or be angry instead of waking up with the joy that God wants her to start the day off with..

Oh, she may get up, splash some water on her face, fix her a cup of coffee and sit down to read her devotions for the day. But what good does devotions do, if she does not take them to heart to apply them for the day: And instead, go right back to worrying, or whatever the enemy would throw at her at the time

But aren't we all like that sometimes? Most times, even. The battles within us start the first thing in the morning and really the best thing we can do to ward them off, is to remember that God's mercy is new every morning.because he loves us, and his faithfulness is great. Lamentations 3:22-23.

No matter what we are going through, but yes they may be there in the morning, just as they were the night before, but so is God's faithfulness and his greatness.

Going forth in the day, and not letting ourselves get down and knowing that the joy of the Lord is our strength.  Nehemiah 8:10

Because instead of giving in to satan's attacks,  God's promises can help us get through the struggles of the day.

And remembering that this is the day that Lord has made, let us rejoice in it, as Psalm 118:24 says.
His gift to us each morning is that as we open our eyes is that, he has made it just for us.

There really is no excuse we can have to let satan have our day. Or any day when we remember to acknowledge and do our best to stay on track with God's word. Even when we aren't actually doing devotions or reading God's word. There are too many scriptures that we can have hidden away in our hearts, to think on to let our joy be stolen.

Even in the worst of times.

And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Finally brothers, whatsoever is true, whatever is honorable whatsoever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatsoever is admirable,  if anything is ever excellent or praiseworthy-think on these things...
and the peace of God will be with you. Philippians 4:8-9

And: He will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind stays on the Lord because he trusts thee. Isaiah 26:3

 Easy? Not always? We are imperfect people that struggles each day just to get through it. And God understands it even though there is really.....

No Excuse




Thanks for coming by Friends. Have a blessed day going forth.
