WE NEED HIM MORE THAN EVER

HE IS THE ROCK!

 

 

Praise the Lord!

 

I have been going through a lot lately. Lots of dilemma and lack of confidence in me made me give in. Fear gripped my every thought and every problem seemed so huge.

 

I was so scared that I couldn't go to church; I felt like a loser and felt like God wasn't hearing me out. I hate to give up but I was so stressed that I couldn't think otherwise. I had asked brother Danny to give me some time off because I wanted to refresh my relationship with Jesus.

 

I know I can't count on anyone except Jesus, but my relationship with him was falling apart. Many of us as Christians feel this way from time to time. It's a fact that I am willing to confess.

 

My life as a Christian is not easy, especially now, but I just can't seem to imagine any other God in the place of Christ. I keep telling him that I know no other God except you. I am dependent on Jesus 24/7.

 

I did go to church after 2 weeks today. It was communion Sunday and when I was in the bus on my way to church I was talking to Jesus and I was like, "I don't know how am going to worship you because I just can't feel you and I don't want to be a hypocrite".

 

But the minute I entered church I felt him, his presence and I couldn't help but praise him. Later that evening the message that was rendered in that service was for me and I knew Jesus would do this and I was like Oh my God (You know how to make me smile)

 

Sing to the LORD! Give praise to the LORD! He rescues the life of the needy from the hands of the wicked. (Jeremiah 20:13)

We do have a God who listens and cares about us. But there is something that we ought to do from our end to keep us going and that is to set our minds right, earlier in my message I had mentioned that Fear gripped my every thought and I was lost. Things haven't changed as yet but it's bound to. Not just for me but for each and every one of you.

Let us believe together and surrender all that we have to the Lord above. I learned a lesson, the lesson being; don't let your thoughts control you. In other words don't let what is happening in the natural break and crush your belief in the supernatural.

 

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy — meditate on these things. (Philippians 4:8)

We can't always control our thoughts that enter our mind, but we do have control over how long we keep them there. Think about it.

Precious people of God say this prayer today and see God work wonders in your life:

Father in heaven, how great is your loving kindness. Thank you for being so patient with us in spite of our weakness. You are the rock on whom we stand and we are proud and grateful when we say we are your children. Help us dear Lord to seek you at all times and worship you even during the most trying times of our lives. I pray that you would release your blessing up on every soul that is crying out to you and I pray that you use us to touch many lives in Jesus precious name we pray and all of God's people said. Amen!

I would like to leave you with one of my poem that I wrote for Jesus.

What This World Needs

Lord, I give myself to you
I love everything you do
Your the one this world needs
It's your words that I read
You heal the broken hearted
Something that which was shattered
Your what this world needs
It is your love that I breathe
I will do my part
I will keep what you said in my heart
You shed your blood
You died on the cross
For the sins I did
But, Lord you treat me as your own kid
You are what this world needs

I pray that one day people will take heed.

JESUS IS THE ROCK ON WHOM I STAND. WE NEED HIM!
