Jun-21 The Greatness of the God

He gives strength to the weary, And to him who has no might He increases power. Isaiah 40:29 AMP

Weary and weakness are the side effects of an exceedingly long journey. The truth is that when we allow Him in the journey, He is ensuring the opposite, which is strength and power, in an increasing measure - a seeming paradox. He is filling up again, restoring it to the former levels and supply fully as and when we turn unto Him, because He is The Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become tired or grow weary (V28).

Let’s look at the terms of condition to such functionality.

a) Who wait for the LORD, who expect, look for, and hope in Him- Will gain new strength and renew their power- When we rise close to God, like eagles rising toward the sun, we will run and not become weary and will walk and not grow tired. (V31)

b) To let Him Shepherd us because He will gather the lambs in His arm,
He will carry them in His bosom (remarkably close or intimate)- to tend, to guard, to govern, to provide pasture, to defend from danger, as a shepherd does his flock. (V11)

O God, You are awesome in Your sanctuary; the God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to us, His people. Blessed be God!  May He refresh the weary soul and replenish all who are weak in the Mighty Name of the Lord. Let The greatness of the Lord, make it clear to us by the magnitude of His operations as Creator, by the perfection and self-sufficiency of His knowledge, and by the insignificance in comparison with Him of all that exists. We Pray this, in the Holy Name of Jesus, Amen.

Ps: Ps 68:35: Jer 31:25

At the altar, our destiny is altered

At the altar, our destiny is altered... Reference-  Job 37:23-24 MSG “Mighty God! Far beyond our reach!     Unsurpassable in Power and Justice!     It’s unthinkable that HE would treat anyone unfairly. So bow to HIM in deep reverence, one and all!     If you’re wise, you’ll most certainly worship HIM.” God is unfolding His story in His own way. The Sovereign and Supreme Ruler is in control of everyone, everything, and everywhere, and the accuser must seek His permission before acting against us. He sees us as His own, and we belong to Him just as He belongs to us. As Job said, God can do all things, and no purpose of His can be stopped (42:2). The Just and Righteous Judge – Our God is fundamentally just, and it’s unthinkable that He would treat anyone unfairly. His rule and governance are righteous, even if at times our eyes, ears, and hearts may not fully understand. The source of all wisdom and revelation is God , whose knowledge is complete unlike ...

God's way is the Power

God's way is God's Power Reference- 1 Cor 4:20 MSG -  God’s Way is not a matter of mere talk; it’s an empowered life!! In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks to a divided church where some were proud, eloquent, and believed they were spiritually superior because of their words and wisdom. He contrasts this human pride with the true power of God, shown in the cross, in changed lives, and in the work of the Spirit, the God's Power. It’s an empowered life—God’s ways are the true power, not found in mere talk, endless words, idle chatter, or impressive responses built on layers of discussion. It is a life empowered by the power of His Spirit, the presence of the Holy Spirit. It is power that breaks chains, sets us free, anoints us, and creates new opportunities, fresh paths, flourishing streams, divine strategies, abundant life, and limitless expansion. Paul didn’t ask the Corinthians to be practical . It’s not about having everything, but about having Him alongside others. That’s why h...

Efforts that counts...

Efforts that counts... Reference- 2 Ch 17  Context: King Jehoshaphat was a seeker and follower of the God of his father and was obedient to HIM; he wasn’t like Israel (at that time, Ahab was ruling Israel). And God secured the kingdom under his rule, gave him a firm grip on it. And everyone in Judah showed their appreciation by bringing gifts. Jehoshaphat ended up very rich and much honoured. Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone - Apostle James in 2:17 Efforts that showed his intention to Seek and Keep Him: Sticking to the ways of Asa (his godly father). Rejecting Baal — non-conformity to the ungodly culture. Removing high places and Asherah poles. This is personal reformation — the king putting his own house in order spiritually. Efforts that enabled others to Seek and Keep Him: Building defences — not just military, but spiritual covering. Sending teachers throughout Judah with the “Book of the Revelation of God” (likely the Torah or existing OT Scriptures). ...
