Embracing Hope:

Finding Strength in God's Unfailing Promises

Introduction: In this article we'll dive into a powerful exploration of hope and strength as revealed to us through the pages of the Bible. Join us as we uncover how God's unfailing promises empower us to face life's challenges with unwavering confidence and resilience.

Scripture Passage: Isaiah 40:31 (KJV) Cross References: Jeremiah 29:11, Romans 15:13, Hebrews 10:23

Commentary: Isaiah 40:31 inspires us with the promise that "they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." This verse highlights the renewal and strength we receive when we place our hope in God.

Jeremiah 29:11 assures us that God has plans for us, "thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end." This verse reinforces the certainty of God's good intentions and hopeful future for His people.

Romans 15:13 encourages us to abound in hope through the power of the Holy Ghost, as the God of hope fills us with all joy and peace in believing. This verse underscores the role of the Holy Spirit in cultivating hope and joy within us.

Hebrews 10:23 urges us to hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering, for He is faithful that promised. This passage emphasizes the importance of steadfast faith and trust in God's promises.

Questions:

How does placing your hope in God impact your perspective on life's challenges?

What are some specific promises from Scripture that you can hold onto during difficult times?

In what ways can you remind yourself daily of God's faithfulness and plans for your future?

How can you encourage others to find hope and strength in God's promises?

Prayer: Heavenly Father, we thank you for the hope and strength you provide through your unfailing promises. Help us to hold fast to our faith and to trust in your plans for our lives. Renew our strength and fill us with your peace and joy. May we rise above our challenges with the confidence that you are always with us. Amen.

### Finding Fulfillment in God's Love

In today’s fast-paced world, many of us grapple with feelings of emptiness, seeking solace in various temporary fixes—drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, or even fleeting romantic encounters. These may provide momentary relief, but they often lead to deeper despair and a yearning for something more lasting. However, true fulfillment can be found in the unwavering love and presence of God. Here’s how…

[jeanasbeautybites]

How many times do we try to make excuses as to why we do not, look for reasons why we can't, and find a million and one other things we need to do before. Truth is we are not missing out on anything by surrending to the will of God, we are actually protecting ourselves, freeing ourselves from evils which lurk at each corner to destroy us, and secure our future. There will always be things which look better, more enticing, or more fun, but it does not mean they are better for you or have your nest interest at heart. Truth hurts, Truth makes you grow and have accountability for your own actions. Stop looking for an easy fix and begin pursuing a lifetime commitment. #lifewithgod #Truth #excuses #salvation #god #godisgood #stoprunning #woman of faith #deerjeana #commitment #accountability #responsibility #heart #getbehindmesatan (at Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoS0KawJ0G9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

God is not DISTANT..

He is not disconnected.

He wants to build a personal relationship with you.

But will you allow Him to?

Escolha

Em meio a tantas oportunidades, Uma escolha, Transforma.

Em meio a tantos amores,  O que vem do coração de Deus,  Transborda.

Em meio a tantos sentimentos,  Aquele que o Senhor nos ensinou, Renova. 

Em meio a desesperança que insiste em visitar,  A Paz que excede o entendimento quer reinar,  Fazer tudo novo. 

Inundar.

DJ: #44 Slipping into the Sacred

I did not expect for the process of writing poems to produce such a stir in my heart. Two days ago I wrote about my fears in relation to writing, specifically poetry. Unpredictably, it led to facing my arrogance and pride. Yesterday, I wrote about the death of my Uncle Todd and the impact it made on three year-old me. It ruined my day a bit. In a good way.

By the time I was ten, death was a normal part of life. I attended so many funerals they lost any personal sting. By twenty, I stopped going to death related ceremonies altogether. Why? Because of the pain on display.  The dead person didn’t bother me as much as the anguish of the living people mourning the deceased. Perfect example, my aforementioned Uncle Todd. I didn’t know him, can’t ever remember meeting him. My pain was for my father*. And yesterday was the first time I addressed the subject with the Lord. 

As I wrote my poem yesterday, I didn’t know where or how it would end. I examined the usual desire to go back and fix it, which is a hopeless position to take. It’s like being on the other side of soundproof glass. We can bang and pound, scream and holler. No one is listening. So I waited. Lord, help. And then, on cue, I saw the end. 

In my mind was three year-old me, and I asked, “what would that little boy tell me?” Unexpectedly, the little boy looked directly into my eyes and smiled. Then he repeated back to me everything I wanted to tell him. 

It was a powerful moment as I sat in my office chair, head buried in my hands, sobbing. I felt something drop off my mind, a weight I didn’t know was there. It’s very possible whatever took place is deeper than I realize. 

For starters, I have no idea what it’s like to live life without thinking of others first, their well being, their happiness. I’m not trying to get away from it either. Part of a balanced life and walk with Jesus is loving my family, friends, community, neighbors, and enemies. The burden has always been the need to fix other people’s pain. I slung that yoke over my shoulder at three years of age, and never let it go. Until recently. There’s a Great force at work.

If you read this blog, you will read about my journey further into the center of God, but now I feel as though I’m being drawn into it. I suppose I could stop the momentum, jump off the tracks. But why would I? All of the weight of expectations is gone. The need for perfection? Destroyed. Having a grand plan for the future? Yeah, f-ck that. 

My biggest problem now is being present, being me in the moment. I still find I drift into the future, where everything is awesome.  I know the trap all too well, escape into the future to avoid the present. Thing is, I’m not trying to escape the present. Drifting into the future is an old practice. Some old practices take time to whither and die. I now have more grace for myself than ever. I no longer see a need to constantly criticize my actions or get worked up over mistakes.

Every day I wake up and choose Jesus is a day I walk away from all I was. It’s scary and exhilarating. Each day I notice a part of me die a little more. One salient example is my desire to smoke weed. I haven’t smoke in ages, yet I’ve maintained I probably would, in the future. This month I observed a shift in my attitude toward puffing the green dragon. I no longer have a desire for it or be around it. Where did that come from? Not sure. I can’t say what’s changed, I just know something changed**. 

I am separating from what I was. 

The internet is not in agreement on how to define the word sacred, so I came up with my own: devoted and separated into the Lord. It’s what I feel is happening to me. Day-to-day, in the moment, life is slow and unyielding. But when I step back, sit on the mountain with Him, I can see my steps took a sharp turn up the path. The only way up the path is through determined devotion, and it is not part of the main stream. Even in the Christian world. 

*I’d say I’ve only truly grieved the death of three or four people, on a personal level. As deep a thinker and feeler as I am, the certainty of death is never something I put to God. Which I’d like to explore at another time. 

**I have absolutely no qualms with anyone using marijuana. Zero. (It needed to be said.)

Tak perlu menyalahkan

Sebab setiap manusia selalu bergerak menuju jalan mereka masing-masing

Setiap manusia diarahkan untuk menempuh setapak kecil mereka sebelum menemukan jalan luas.

So, lapangkan hati, lebarkan senyum dan percaya

Jika Tuhan meremukan, Ia selalu bertanggung jawab untuk memulihkan.

Tuhan selalu didepanmu, dan takkan membiarkanmu.

Deuteronomy 31:8

And the Lord, He is the one who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed."

Having an after church conference meal with a good friend and prayer partner. A simple meal after recieving a great but simple message. For me, eating after church is a personal expression of gratitude celebrating the spiritual feeding I received. That was even true when my son and I would eat at Ocean Dragon. Now I know lots of people don't necessarily "do church" or think God isn't real. Trust me, I understand. But let me say this. People tend to be fake. God is always real with us. We tend to make the mistake of equating him with people, not recognizing him as God, and that's where the pain begins. As for me, he's the realest I know, and I'm not ashamed to let it be known that I'm influenced by God. #rareepiphanysking #nyneelementz #influencedbyGod #producerlife #musiclife #musicproducer #poet #lyricist #beatmaker #streetminister #realtalk #friendship #shrimpfriedrice #thegathering #lifewithGod https://www.instagram.com/p/B4lvVnmHkJk/?igshid=q2mh5781r9zq

Without God, all we do in life, no matter how great or significant, will pass and is useless. Only the things with Jesus at the center will bring peace and happiness to both mankind and the world at large. #withoutgod Life without God no matter how seemingly valuable leads to EMPTINESS. #withoutgodimnothing Life without Jesus is like an unsharpened pencil...it has no point. #withoutgodiamnothing God created a void in your heart that is only His to fill. When life becomes meaningless, boring, and hard it's because we've been filling it with anything but Him. #withoutgodwearenothing To learn more on how to figure out your purpose, how to utilize your talents that God has given you or just advice aiding you in living in purpose, checkout this playlist on my YouTube channel titled, "Purpose."
