DAY 31 - Overcoming Fear

DAY 31

Read: Psalm 53

As we continue to meditate on Psalm 53:5,6 we learn that often we are afraid of things that do not exist. We live in dread of things that might happen when 90% of the time, the things we are worried about never occurs. This is an important truth for us to understand if we want to live a victorious life.

In Job 19:25, Job says “I know that my redeemer lives, and He will take His stand on the earth”. Job was able to say this because he knew God. He had a personal, intimate joyful, confident and experiential knowledge of God.

As it is recorded in Psalm 27:13, “I will live and see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living”. With confidence in the Lord may we say even though I am going through a difficult time now, ‘I will live’.

In his book Laughter, Joy and Healing, Dr. Donald E. Demaray states that the resurrection testifies that God is in charge, not evil, not the devil. God is in control and He has the final word. May we remember that the dark times, evil or Satan are not in charge of our lives. The God of the resurrection, the God who demonstrated this tremendous power is in charge.

So, may we rest and relax in the promises of God and like Job, say, “My redeemer lives and He will take care of me”.

:: Prayer ::

Dear Lord, in our difficult times, may we realize that the resurrection testifies that You are in charge, You are in control and You will see us through. 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.

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
