DAY 39 - Reverential Fear

DAY 39

Read: Proverbs 19:21-23

Proverbs 19:23 says (Message Bible): “The fear of God is life itself, a full life and serene, no nasty surprises”. The fear of God leads to life. In the NASB it says, “The fear of the Lord leads to life, so that one may sleep satisfied, and untouched by evil”.

When I truly love God, obey Him, turning away from everything that is unholy and ungodly, seeking His favour, I will see problems in the right perspective. I will not be overcome by fear rather the fear of the Lord will reduce the circumstances to its right proportion.

Difficulties will come but God will see you through. There will be many checks, but you will not be checkmated. “You will sleep satisfied” implies you are not stressed, nor anxious, not worried nor afraid, not disturbed. The fear of God liberates us from all other fear. The fear of people, of the future, health, job; all these fears can be overcome when we are completely submitted to the Lord. The fear of God leads to life.

We need to be strongly connected to the Almighty God, His love, His protection and that will produce a serene life.

God is with us and will see us through and make something beautiful out of our difficulties. We can go through suffering in our own strength or choose to avail His grace and be more than conquerors in our trials.

:: Prayer ::

Lord Jesus You have promised to be with us at all times. May we revere Your name and love you with all our heart. Thank You for the assurance of Your protection. 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
