Sure-footed In Christ

Therefore, let all who are faithful offer prayer to you; at a time of distress, the rush of mighty waters shall not reach them. Psalm 32:6 (NRSVU) Stay prayed up in order to not be beaten down by life. At all times seek the Lord in prayer. When we seek God with all our hearts, through the vicissitudes of life, we will remain sure-footed. When troubles come and the tides rise He is our help. God is faithful to carry us through difficult days and sustain us during challenging times. As we daily face concerns that seem to mount, let us look to Him to be our stability in inconsistent places, our solid ground in shaky spaces and our shelter in the storm. No matter what comes your way take everything to God in prayer. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

The Lord is my Shepherd. I will have everything I need. Psalm 23:1 (NLV) Jehovah-Jireh provides all that we need. God is our Source. Jobs, careers, degrees are a resource, but He is the ultimate provider. He opens and closes doors. He creates opportunities and He redirects our path when we are stepping out of His will. All that we desire is found in the Lord. Don’t look at what you see and fret. Believe that God is greater than what you’re facing. God is limitless. He has the ability to turn your situation around. Look at your life and declare, the Lord will provide! Press Forward! ADaubon

Go With God

Then David said to his son Solomon, “Be strong and courageous, and take action; do not fear nor be dismayed, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you nor abandon you [but will guide you in the construction] until you have finished all the work for the service of the house of the Lord.” I Chron. 28:20 (Amp.) There will be times in our life when God gives us an assignment that we may think is too big for us or out of our realm of capability. We must believe that when God has called us to a task He has already gone before us and prepared the way. He has also prepared us in advance for all that we are called to do. Move forward knowing God will not abandon you or the assignment He has given you. Let’s go grow together. ADaubon

Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually. I Chron. 16:11 (NRSVU) Sometimes we seek strength when we are low; but we look for it in all the wrong places. Seek the Lord first in relationship; then receive the benefit of His strength. No one and nothing can give you the help you need other than the Lord. The power that you desire can only be found in the one who created you and knows all your innermost parts. Whatever weight you are carrying, release it in His presence. All that you are missing, find in His presence. Let Him restore and refill you. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

The LORD hears his people when they call to him for help. He rescues them from all their troubles. Psalm 34:17 (NLT) There is absolutely nothing that you are going through that God is not able to help you. No matter what you’re dealing with, know that He hears your cries and is attentive to your cares. Even when it looks like you are facing defeat, He will turn it around and give you victory. Find comfort and hope in knowing that God has promised to rescue us in our times of trouble and He keeps His promises. Call out to Him and wait in great expectation for your deliverance.

I prayed to the LORD, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears. Psalm 34:4 (NLT) There is a lot that you may carry that you need not bear anymore, In His presence are all the answers that you’re looking for. Seek His face for all that you need. When He answers, take heed. God sees you in every intricate part. He is faithful to minister directly to your heart. Cease from seeking insight in the wrong people and places. Be reminded that it is God alone who can fill all your empty spaces. So, if you feel like you are drowning and need a lifeline to survive. He’s faithful to release you from all that is trying to hinder your ability to thrive. We can be free today, when we stop worrying and pray. Let’s grow and go together. ADaubon

I will praise the LORD at all times. I will constantly speak his praises. Psalm 34:1 (Amp.) No matter what you go through, don’t lose your praise. We must give God praise with all that we have, even when we don’t feel like it. He is worthy on our good days and our bad days. Don’t let your circumstances or challenges cripple your ability to praise God. Worship Him for who He is and all He’s done. Believe in your heart that if He’s done it before He can do it again. When you feel like exalting God is a hard press, press anyway. In the midst of your worship you will receive the peace you seek and the rest you desire. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Protect Your Space

“In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.” Eph. 4:26-27 (NIV) Most of our anger derives from pain and hurt feelings. Having an inability to forgive or process your emotions in a healthy and safe way can plant seeds of bitterness and anger deep within you. It is better to settle a matter before it takes root and grows a life of its own. It is not easy, but it is worth the effort to release what’s trying to keep a hold on you. When your emotions are hemmed up in a negative place you have now invited the enemy into your space. Guard yourself by denying access through the door of anger. May God keep you as you surrender all things and people unto Him, so you can walk in peace and experience true rest. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
