Better Days Ahead!

02 Nov Better Days Ahead!

Faced with the enormous challenges of life, we need good advice. And who better to go to than God Himself.

🎯The Holy Spirit has given us a series of advice on living at peace and these are some: Rejoice evermore; Pray without ceasing; and In everything, give thanks.

🎯Rejoice evermore: You may ask how do I rejoice all the time when there are problem?

💥The Bible made is clear that your rejoicing should be in the Lord.

💥The scripture says, “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, rejoice.”

💥In other words, your rejoicing should not be tied to anything material, physical or what is happening around you, but to the Lord.

💥If you rejoice in the Lord, your joy will be constant because the Lord doesn’t change. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever.

💥Even when you have to be sorrowful, rejoice because joy is coming.; “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

💥”As surely as day will follow night, joy will always follow sorrow.”

💥If you have failed in business, marriage, your examination, the Bible says “As long as there is life, there is hope.”

💥When your friends and helpers desert you there is reason to rejoice because He says “I will never leave you and I

will never forsake you”.

💥There is a friend who will never leave you nor forsake you, His name is Jesus Christ.

💥If you are worried about tomorrow, remember that, “Christ in you the hope of glory.”

🎯Pray without ceasing: many people don’t pray because they don’t believe God will answer but He has assured us when we call on Him he will answer.

💥He says, “Seek and you shall find, Knock and the door shall be opened unto you.”

💥Pray without ceasing; just one more prayer and breakthrough will come.

💥If you have prayed all manners of prayer and you are not getting results, maybe you are praying the wrong prayer.

💥Maybe the only prayer you should pray is just one: ask God for mercy.

💥It is of the mercy of the Lord that we are not consumed.
You are alive today not because you are good and clever but God decided to be merciful.

💥What you need from God is mercy.

🎯In everything, give thanks. The Bible says “Come to His presence with thanksgiving.” Give thanks before you call on me.

🎯Thank him for what He has done in the past.

🎯That you are still alive today is enough to thank God for.

🎯You might have suffered some losses, but without the mercy of God, things would have been worse, so give thanks.

💥We should give thanks it is the will of God

💥Even in a storm, we should give thanks because God is still on His throne.

💥There are many important things He does without our contribution; things like the choice of parents, our sex, where we are born, etc.

💥He said “before I formed you in the belly, I knew you.”

💥 And It doesn’t matter how many enemies are working against you, what God has decided concerning you shall come to pass.

💥Because He is Alpha and Omega; the Beginning as well as the Ending, He started with you and He is going to complete with you.

💥Give thanks particularly for knowing Jesus. The only person who has a lot to worry about is the one who refuses to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour.

💥But you can get out of trouble by running to Jesus Christ.
