DAY 12 - Inner Quietness

Day 12

 Read: Psalm 131

We are living in uncertain times not knowing when normalcy will be restored. There are a lot of things we are uncertain about our job, financial situation, the economy. Change can cause us to be disturbed, worried and anxious. God instructs us to be at rest like a weaned child, comforted and quiet in His arms. 

This psalm is so appropriate for us in these times. As the world is in turmoil grappling with different strategies to cope with the pandemic, we as God’s children have an amazing God who says come and rest. God does not have senior citizens or young people, only children!! We are precious in His sight. He assures us that He will take care of us like a mother takes care of her child. In Isaiah it says, will a nursing mother forget her child? We are protected by a loving Father, rest in His care.  www.newhopetv.org

Matthew 11: 28-30 says, "Come to me all who labour and are heavy laden and overburdened, I will cause you to rest. I will ease, relieve and refresh your soul. Take my yoke upon you and learn of Me, for I am gentle, humble and meek, lowly in heart. You will find rest, relief, refreshment, ease, recreation and a blessed quiet for your soul” (Amplified Bible). In the midst of the uncertainty, may we recognize that we have an awesome Shepherd, a God who calls us to rest in Him.

To the extent that you are calm, collected and rested in the core of your being to that extent you are a mature Christian. 

:: Prayer ::

Lord Jesus in the midst of so many questions may we rest and relax because we are your children. You will take us through triumphantly even through these trying times. In Jesus name, Amen.

                        DAY 27 Read: Exodus 14:13-14                                      Dallas Willard a great Christian philosopher said,  “ ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your lives”. Contrary to the world’s idea that a busy life and multitasking are important, research studies as documented by Dr. Caroline Leaf suggests that being calm and doing one thing at a time is necessary for healthy brain function. Multitasking is unhealthy for the mind. It is vital to be at rest and in quietness.                                        www.newhopetv.org The Israelites when they were at the Red sea, thought that this was the end, they were going to drown and die. They were angry, grumbled and complained to Moses. Moses assured them not ...

                        DAY 28 Read: Zephaniah 3:14-17 Continuing our meditation about resting in God’ s love, in Zephaniah 3 :17 the Bible tells us that the awesome God lives amidst us, He will quieten us with His love, He exults over us with joy. As human beings we are longing to be loved, wanting people to love us, accept us, appreciate us. We can go through life, seeking love and become frustrated, dejected, thinking that we can never be deeply loved. But God loves us unconditionally, His love is not dependent on us, who we are or what we do.                      www.newhopetv.org Just like the father of the prodigal son rejoiced in the return of his son, so does God when we turn to Him. Enjoying God’s love brings healing and comfort. God says He loves us despite our failures, our fears and our doubts. He knows everything about us and still loves us. May we respond to t...

DAY 30 - Trusting God

                          DAY 30 Read: Genesis 37:12-35 Continuing our meditation on the life of Joseph, sometimes we think that our difficult times are the end, but we need to hold on as there is a new beginning. In a believer’s life, one can never be stuck in the same situation, something awesome is bound to happen, something new will open up. Often in our lives we go through Friday when everything seems dark, lost and without any hope. We feel that everything has come to a standstill, yet we know that it is only Friday and that Sunday is coming and it will be glorious and victorious. When life appears to be at its darkest hour, we can take courage in the hope that God is working out a wondrous and amazing beginning. Remember that though it seems dark, Sunday is coming, the glorious power of our Lord Jesus Christ will be displayed in our lives. When Christ comes in glory everything will be made beautiful. As we see in Jo...
