Shalom,
Today I want to share from our partners, Kenneth and Gloria Copeland's, devotional "From Faith To Faith":
Recall God's Mercies
This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3:21-23
God is faithful. He's full of
compassion. His mercies are new every morning. As a believer, you know all
that. But simply knowing it is not enough.
For it to do you any good, you have
to recall it. You have to remember it again and again in order to rekindle your
hope and stir your faith.
So, make it a point to remind
yourself of God's faithfulness every morning. Remind yourself of the benefits
that are yours in Jesus.
What are those benefits? Psalm 103
spells them out:
1. He forgives all your sins.
2. He heals all your diseases.
3. He redeems your life from
destruction.
4. He crowns you with lovingkindness
and tender mercies.
5. He satisfies your mouth with good
things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
6. He executes righteousness and
judgment for you against oppression.
7. He sets you free.
8. He makes known His ways to you.
9. He gives you His grace and mercy
in times of need.
Make it a point every morning to
say those things out loud to the Lord. Stand before Him in prayer and recall
His mercies to you. Keep it up and you'll be stronger in faith and more
confident of God's love than you've ever been before.
Don't just settle for knowing God's
blessings. Remember them every day and watch them come alive in you.
AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "What A Beautiful Name":
Shalom in Him!
