Shalom,

If you have ever felt as though there was no one you could count on, I have some extraordinarily good news for you today! Look at Psalm 119:89-90:
89 Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven [stands firm as the heavens]. 90 Your faithfulness is from generation to generation; You have established the earth, and it stands fast.

As a born again believer in Jesus Christ, there will NEVER be a time when you are all alone! He has given us His Spirit Who will live inside of us and never leave (John 14:16), and His Word, which is eternal! The word "forever" in verse 89 is the Hebrew word "`owlam", which means: eternity; time out of mind; forever; perpetual; always; continuous; indefinite or unending future. Now look at verse 96:

96 I have seen that everything [human] has its limits and end [no matter how extensive, noble, and excellent]; but Your commandment is exceedingly broad and extends without limits [into eternity].

We no longer have to rely on mere human ability, strength or wisdom! We have all of the resources of Heaven available to us, but we MUST know how to appropriate them! Let's look at a few more verses from Psalm 119:

97 Oh, how love I Your law! It is my meditation all the day. AMP

105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. AMP

130 The entrance and unfolding of Your words give light; their unfolding gives understanding (discernment and comprehension) to the simple. AMP

144 Your righteous testimonies are everlasting and Your decrees are binding to eternity; give me understanding and I shall live [give me discernment and comprehension and I shall not die]. AMP

160 The sum of Your word is truth [the total of the full meaning of all Your individual precepts]; and every one of Your righteous decrees endures forever. AMP

165 Great peace have they who love Your law; nothing shall offend them or make them stumble. AMP

The only way for us to walk in the provision and benefits of the Word of God is to meditate on it until it becomes real in us! Look at Joshua 1:8:

8 This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success. AMP

"Meditate" is the Hebrew word "hagah", which means: to murmur; to ponder; to muse; to imagine; to speak. This involves speaking the Word to ourselves or to like-minded believers so that we can continue to think about it and to get a clear picture of the Word inside of us. When the Word becomes real to us, that is when we will be able to speak and it will happen, to act on it and see great results (John 15:7). AMEN! I encourage you to pick up the pace on your study of God's Word so that you can continue in a state of readiness for whatever He instructs you to do. THEREIN lies the key to your prosperity, in every area of life! HALLELUJAH! Here is Hillsong with "Where We Belong":


Shalom in Him!
