You Are for Me
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. (Isaiah 41:10)
God Knows You
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. (Psalm 139:13-14)
God knows you! He knows the details of your life. Nothing is hidden from Him! He sees when you sit and when you rise. He is familiar with all your ways. He knows each word you will speak. He was there the moment you were conceived. He formed you in your mother’s womb. There is no where you can go to flee from the Lord. He is everywhere you go. He will never leave you, never forsake you, and never let you go!
The Lord sees even your darkest days. He promises to bring a rainbow after every storm you face.
To Be Like Christ
All things are lawful [that is, morally legitimate, permissible], but not all things are beneficial or advantageous. All things are lawful, but not all things are constructive [to character] and edifying [to spiritual life]. (1 Corinthians 10:23, AMP)
Why fill our hearts and minds
With what doesn’t edify
And doesn’t help our spirits grow
To be truly unified
What we believe in our minds
We should believe in our hearts
So we will speak with sincerity
What the word of God imparts
Heavenly Mindset
Therefore if you have been raised with Christ [to a new life, sharing in His resurrection from the dead], keep seeking the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. (Colossians 3:1, AMP)
Lately, God is reminding me to be focused on things that are eternal. This stuff down here on earth is really just a glimpse of what is to come. I can’t get my heart and mind entangled in things that don’t last forever. God has called me to set my heart and mind on Him.
Precious Again
And he said, “I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 18:3-4)
