DAY 8 - Protection Amidst The Coronavirus

By

     

Day 8

 Read: Psalm 91

In Psalm 91, the words pestilence and plague are used thrice. As believers we need to claim this promise that God will take care of us and protect us. As we dwell in the shelter of the Most High, we can rest in His love. We need to abide in the shadow of the Almighty. We must choose to remain in God. 

Jerry Root a famous Christian scholar describes the greatest sin as a failure and a denial to recognize the love of God. In the garden of Eden, Satan deceived Eve by suggesting that she can find out for herself and not be fooled by God’s promises. A failure to recognise God will lead to fear and insecurity that then leads to worry and anxiety resulting in us trying to control our lives. Pride says ‘I will be like God’. As we dwell and abide in God, we rest in Him and therefore we are secure, confident and settled in His love.   www.newhopetv.org

1 John 4:18 says, “Perfect love casts out all fear”. In this time of uncertainty, we can be secure in God’s love, humbly submitted to Him.

:: Prayer ::

Forgive us Lord for living in worry, fear and insecurity, trying to take control of our lives. Help us to trust You to take care of us and may we rest in You. In Jesus Name, Amen.

             Day 15  Read: John 20:19-23 Christ has destroyed the power of death through His work on the cross and His resurrecton. He is risen and He is with us. The disciples stayed behind locked doors in fear and isolaton afer Jesus was crucifed. The frst words Jesus spoke to them was, “Peace be with you” (John 20:19) And my peace I give unto you” (John 16:33). The Lord wants us to be in absolute peace and contentment. The word ‘Shalom’ implies absolute harmony, lacking nothing!                       www.newhopetv.org In the midst of the Coronavirus situaton, Jesus tells us to be at peace. We live discouraged, disheartened, disconnected lives, lacking joy in our relatonships. But in Jesus, we are more than conquerors. We can live in peace and harmony. During this tme of lockdown, may we refuse to show frustraton and biterness especially with our loved ones. In the peace that Jesus gives us, we can be victorious in every situaton.

DAY 32 - God At Work

                            DAY 32 Read: Genesis 37:31-36 Psalm 53:5 says, they feared where no fear had been. Joseph’s brothers sold him off and informed their father that Joseph had been eaten by the wild animals. Jacob on hearing this news tore his clothes put on sack cloth and was a broken man. He refused to be comforted. Meanwhile, God was working in an amazing way. Joseph was taken by Potiphar, the captain in Pharaoh’s army. While Jacob wept, God was working out His plan.      www.newhopetv.org Often when we think all is lost and there is nothing to look forward to, God is still at work. He will fulfill His promises. He is in control of everything. Jacob was weeping for his son Joseph thinking he was dead while God was raising him up. Trust God to be true to His promises.  To be continuously sad is rebellion and disobedience toward God. :: Prayer :: Forgive us for weeping, grieving, being anxious, afraid and worried. You are working behind the scenes to make something beautiful

DAY 34 - Be A Blessing

                              DAY 34 Read: Genesis 40:1-8 Another important virtue we see in Joseph is his concern for the people around him. In Genesis 40:6, the cupbearer and baker are in prison and are dejected. Joseph asks them the reason and is led to help them. Though Joseph himself had enough problems of his own: being sold by his brothers, falsely accused, put in prison, he still chose to think of others. Look out for people who are suffering, it makes our dark periods lighter, it helps to shift the focus from ourselves to others. It makes us think less about ourselves and more about the needs of others. As Paul exhorts us, we need to look out for the interests of others. As we see in Job 42:10, God waited, as Job moved from his suffering to interceding and then to restoration.          As the renowned cardiologist, professional educator and author Dr. B.M. Hegde says that  “ I” “I” leads to Illness;  “ We “ We ” leads to Wellness/Wholeness/Health. Let us not be lost in self-pi
