Amen!!! I am much older than most on the forum. and many of you
are many miles behind me, so I am just trying to encourage those of
you coming along behind. THERE is HOPE in thine end!!
My late grandmother Lizzie and her husband made it through the
Great Depression of the late 20's and early 30's. I have wondered
if the circumstances of those days of difficultly could have had a
part in her being willing to follow the Lord in truth she had not known
before. When people get hungry, they get willing. Physically and
spiritually. Willing to do His Will!
My late parents went through WWII, him serving overseas in Japan
and in the Philippeans, He had 4 small children and a loving wife at
home in the states. He not only trusted his own soul and life, but the
lives of his family back home. God didn't fail him or them and I am what
I am today, partially because of not only hearing of God's provision and
protection, BUT seeing it lived out after Dad came home. He came home
and he and Mom raised eleven children to adulthood, all graduating from
high school and several with higher education. All received the Holy Ghost
and were baptized in Jesus Name. All are still living except one who went
to join Dad and Mom in 2007.
Dad and Mom believed there wasn't anything God couldn't and wouldn't
do if we just believed and dared to trust HIM. I believe they same! HE
did not fail or let those who have gone before me down. He will not let me
and mine down. He will not let us down in dark time IF we look to Him and
ALLOW Him to direct our lives. The dark times just makes the "LIGHT" shine
that much brighter, in and through us!
So today, I can BOLDLY say, "The LORD IS MY HEPER! I will not fear
what man can do to me." GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL my NEEDS according to
HIS RICHES in glory, by Christ Jesus!
Yes, God intends for us to provide for our own and HE will help us do
that while trusting and working with HIM!!
Psalms 118:5-9
I called upon the Lord in distress: The lord answered me, and set me in a
large place.
The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?
The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me.
It is better to truust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes.
Heb.13:5,6
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Blessings
