Let us examine to see just where and what does our faith rest in. Is it in uncertain riches?
As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be proud and arrogant and contemptuous of others, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches, but on God, Who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything for [our] enjoyment. [Charge them] to do good, to be rich in good works, to be liberal and generous of heart, ready to share [with others], In this way laying up for themselves [the riches that endure forever as] a good foundation for the future, so that they may grasp that which is life indeed. 1 Tim 6: 17 (Amplified)
Is it in some formula, maybe a secret marketing plan, law of attraction or just in being a good person? All these have some validity in bringing us to a greater place of confidence and success. The law of attraction for instance is nothing more than a witch’s formula without knowing the true God of this universe and His greatest Law of all. His saving grace and the only way He provided for being reconciled and having access to His Holy throne. The truth is Jesus is the answer. He is the only way to be heard by God. He is the only way to be reconciled to God.
Such a shame to see people just settle for temporary riches. Some even will argue, “well the formula is working for me.” Yes, sure it will work for all, good and evil alike. The question is what about for eternity. For what does it profit a man if he gains riches, honor, fame and a seduced sense of peace if in the end he loses is soul?
Some even put their faith in faith itself. Believing in anything hard or strong enough isn’t the answer. I have even seen good Christians, in my many hours of counseling as a former pastor, actually wanting a divorce because they believed their mate’s faith wasn’t strong enough. They attributed all their problems to the partner’s weak faith. Oh God help us put our faith in you not in our faith.
Today’s Letter from God
I am your Lord , your Supply. You must rely on Me. Trust to the the last uttermost limit. Trust and be not afraid. You must depend on Divine Power only. I have not forgotten you. Your help is coming. You shall know and realize My Power.
Endurance is faith tried almost to the breaking point. You must wait, and trust, and hope, and joy in Me. You must not depend on man or lean to your own understanding but on Me, on Me, your Strength, your Help, your Supply.
This is the great test. Am I your supply or not? Every great work for Me has had to have this great test-time.
Possess your souls (minds) in patience and rejoice. You must wait until I show the way. Heaven itself cannot contain more joy than that soul knows, when, after the waiting-test, I crown it Victor, but no disciple of Mine can be Victor, who does not wait until I give the order to start. You cannot be anxious if you know that I am your supply. Love You all. Your Heavenly Father.
Today’s Power Affirmation:
I will let patience have her perfect work, that I may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. Based on: James 1:4
Today’s encouragement: “Possess your souls in patience and rejoice.”
