Promises

Galatians 3:9
So then those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

When we come into the christian faith by receive Jesus as Lord and Savour we come into this faith and are blessed with Abraham.

Galatians 3:13
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written; "Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree". He redeemmed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.

Jesus took our curse of shame, poverty, ugliness, despair on Himself... we therefore come into a state of grace and favor of GOd.... as we walk in the steps of faith as Abraham we must remember not to fall back to a false gospel of men's system and dictatorship. The Holy Spirit would bear witness in our hearts the direction Jesus wants us to go.

Galatians 5:4
You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

There is always a false gospel that hinders the work of Holy SPirit in our live. The false gospel is usually the gospel of men's control... that the christian following that system of control would usually follow a set of system that God calls a false gospel.

Galatians 1:6-7
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some perople are throwing you in confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.

Lets be careful not to just follow men or their system or how impressive they may be.. Lets follow Jesus... follow the Holy SPirit... do not stray from the truth... the anointing in you bears witness to the truth and do not lie... Men wants to monopolies for their own agenda.. beware of this and follow not the wrong tradition n system of men... discern the leading of the Holy SPirit... and you wld not fall from the place of grace to a place of wrong gospel.

Galatians 6:12
Those who want to make a good impression outwardly are trying to compel you to be circumcised. The only reason they do this is to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ,

Galatians 5:11-12
Brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished. As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!

There are leaders who preach system and man's tradition which is a different gospel... discern and come out of it.

Desperation

Psalm 34:6
This poor man called, and the Lord heard him; and saved him from all his troubles.

Bible says that God is a God of compassion... Dr Ar Bernard said that the essence of God's character is His goodness... The Lord is still good and seated on the throne of grace in our times of needs... in a normal day there will be challenges but yet in all these things we are more than conquerors thru Him who loves us...

Hebrews 4:16
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

God is a good God and He wants us to come to Him on a daily basis, even in our time of need... He wants to encourage n help us... Life is not easy yet He wants us not to worry about anything or any situation... lets commit ur situation in prayer to Him.

"Dear Lord, I need help, I commit the situation to you... thank you for the finished work on the cross that You took my failure n defeat, that I might inherit victory n blessing... I commit the situation to You and pray for my requests (pray wat is desired result of situation), I lift up to You, knowing You are faith and I receive You love and grace right now... thank You Lord for Your goodness in my situation, help me Lord I pray... In Jesus name." Amen

Trust God's plan

Psalm 139:16-18
Your eyes saw my substance being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; when I awake, I am still with You.

God has plans for our life even before we are birth into this planet.... God knows our purpose on this earth and wants us to seek Him for His Will for our life...

Ephesians 2:10
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

God has given all of us talents and abilities to do the good works which He has plan for each of us....

1 Cor 2:9-10
But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, not have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

When things go so wrong....

Proverbs 13:12
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is the tree of life.

When you did all you can and things go from bad to worst... it is time to renew your strength in God... it is time to calm down and rest in Him....Our part in life is to do our very best to go in the direction of our dreams... however bad things do happen to good pple... even times of injustice... in such situation... it is impt to from back your trust and hope in Him.... God always has a word for each moment of our life....sometimes our weakness cause the problem.... in such time... we still can look for God... for His encouragement and counsel... God loves us and knows the situation of our life... and wants us to respond in faith and obedience to Him.... Be patient for Him always...

Proverbs 20:22
Do not say, "I will recompense evil"; wait for the Lord, and He will save you.

When our own mistakes cause us to fail... we should humbly accept and work wiser and better next time.

Proverbs 21:25
The desire of the slothful kills him, for his hands refuse to labour.

But sometimes its a matter of injustice and emotional instability or even fatique or tireness that cause a loss of confidence... God will help us to be more patient and stronger in endurance... as we go through trials of difficulty... God has a better answer... that in the end we would be bless by Him double for every trial as we patiently wait on Him and follow Him...

In the end of the tunnel

Romans 5:1-5
Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappointn because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

God has a great ending for our life... the promises of God are "Yes and Amen"... no matter wat you are going thru... God wants to encourage you to persist in faith... For God is able to make all things work together for your good... Keep persisting in faith... there will be trials... there will be valley of the shadow of death... but we fear no evil for His rod and staff comforts us... and goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our life... Hope deferred may make the heart sick... but when the desire come... it is the tree of life... if you are waiting for your breakthru... keep on trusting in His promise.... delight yourself in the Lord and He shall give you the desires of your heart... He makes all things beautiful in His time...

Holy Courage

Daniel 3:16-18
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. Of that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us from your hand, O king. :But if not, let it be knowm to you, O king, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we worship the gold image which you have set up."

Because of their courage and trust in God.... God came into the situation and turn it around for their good.

Daniel 3:24-25
Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counsellors, "Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the firt?" They answered and said to the king, "True, O king." "Look!" he answered, "I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the forth is like the Son of God."

Take time to seek God for right answers

Daniel 2:16-19
So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him time, that he might tell the king the interpretation. Then Daniel went to his house, and made the decision kown to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his compaions, that they might seek mercies from the God of heaven concerning this secret, so that Daniel and his companions might not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon. Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a night vision. So Daniel blessed the God of heaven.

God loves to reveal to us His Will... we must take time liek Daniel to seek God concerning the Will of God and the wisdom of God in every situation... For God loves to reveal His ways and His will to us...

Daniel 2:28
But there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and he has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head upon your bed were these.

Daniel 2:47-49
The king answered Daniel, and said, "Truly your God is the GOd of gods, the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you could reveal this secret." Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many great gifts; and he made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief administrator over all the wise men of Babylon. Also Daniel petitioned the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego over the affairs of the province of Babylon; but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.
