Word for Today: Faithful is Our God
God is a restorer and a re-builder – and that more than anything else is what I need today. But God is faithful in all things and through all things. Even in the midst of adversity his faithfulness is made known through the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit and sojourners of the Christian faith who continue to minister that truth to me in action, word, and deed.
Over the course of the past week, I have seen the heart of many in my social circle and learned even more about the need for focused prayer and intercession, because even though I’m the one who bears the physical scars of this altercation, there are many who carry the emotional scars.
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is thy faithfulness and greater is thy reward. Fear not, but sing God’s praise; for those who are with you are greater than they who are with them.
Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice – for the battle is not yours, it’s the Lord’s. Lean not unto your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path.
