A Word of Encouragement For Your Day.

In my morning communion time with the Holy Spirit today as I looked at Luke 8:25 which reads these words: But He said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they were afraid, and marvelled, saying to one another, “Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!”

The Lord asked me the question “Why are you fearful? Have you lost your faith in me? Now in this instance in this scripture a horrendous storm had arisen from nowhere which was threatening to sink the ship they were in and it was scary and very terrifying .

The weather that day had been very stable however Jesus had taught on the Kingdom of God and had in His private time with the Disciples explained in detail the parable of the sower in which He pointed out how things will arise to steal the word sown in our hearts. They were experiencing a storm arise because satan was seeking to steal the word Jesus had sown into their lives all day.

The Holy Spirit pointed out to me that there is no storm or situation in life that can suddenly spring up from nowhere. Then automatically just paralyzes me with such fear that I forget that God is with me. He said no matter what arises against me it will not prosper and I should not allow it to control my actions. I have the Kingdom’s responsibility not to allow anything to cause me to lose my faith in any battle. Isaiah.54:17.

My faith is in Jesus who has overcome all things. 1 John.5:4 & 5. So no new thing can suddenly arise that He has not already overcome. So from today and going forward never let any situation so captivate you that you act on it rather than on what Jesus has overcome on your behalf.

You will notice clearly from this scripture that the storm did not affect Jesus. He just spoke to it to become calm and it ceased being a problem to align with the peace in His heart. We must also in like manner speak to the storms and not allow them to make us retreat. Mark.11:23 & 24.

So today pick up your courage and speak to every storm that threatens you today and watch it melt like wax before you. Then get up boldly and go right ahead to fulfill God’s plan for your life today.

Be encouraged to move forward with no fear impeding your progress, for the Lord will propel you as you respond in faith to His plan for your life. Blessings.
