'This world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.'
- We live in a world that is characterised by constant change.
- Our earthly experience is temporary and fleeting.
- What is popular and essential today may well be irrelevant tomorrow.
- But when we do what pleases God, there is an eternal reward in store for us.
Prayer: Lord, help me to keep my eyes fixed on You. May I not be influenced and drawn away from You by things that are temporary and fading away. I choose to do what pleases You. Amen.

THE MIGHTY HAND OF GOD IS WITH YOU
May 17, 2021
When we are facing challenges, or hard times, it can often feel like God has abandoned or deserted us. It can feel lonely, when things do not seem to be working out like we had hoped or expected. When our path does not take us straight to the destination, we had seen in our mind s eye, its easy to get discouraged. When our brokenness and despair seems without purpose or end, we may be tempted to take our eye off the goal, and choose to look at the waves, that seem to have the power to overwhelm us. However, the truth of the matter is that the Lord is with you. His hand remains a mighty hand. He remains mighty to save, mighty to deliver, and mighty to bring about breakthrough and deliverance. The mighty hand of the Lord is with you today!
SCRIPTURE READING:
Exodus 13:9 For the LORD brought you out of Egypt with His mighty hand.
NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE MIGHTY HAND OF GOD IN YOUR LIFE.
In Exodus 13, Moses repeatedly reminds the people of the mighty hand of the Lord, that was part of their lives, and this included their past, their present and their future. Oh, to know that the mighty hand of the Lord is with you, is surely the greatest comfort any human being can know. When we begin to imagine a future without the Lord and His mighty hand in our lives, it brings fear, dread, anxiety, and hopelessness. When we contemplate a future, with the full knowledge that He, together with His mighty hand, will accompany us, we can be bold, determined, fearless, and secure. When we remind ourselves of the strength of His mighty hand, and the fact that His hand is with us, we can be filled with positivity and hope. To underestimate something means to estimate it as being unable to deliver what it has promised. When we underestimate something, we estimate it to be smaller or less important, or less able to deliver, on our expectations. Begin to remind yourself that God is great and powerful, and remind yourself that His mighty hand is in fact MIGHTY BEYOND WORDS and reaches beyond all the limitations of life, and our opinions.
