Friends, just want to share with you all on some thoughts and revelations. :)
Recently, I feel that God has been emphasizing the importance of His presence and the desire to seek His presence, especially in the dry periods and periods of trials of lives.
Look at the example of David, the reason why he was favored so much in the eyes of the Lord was because of his attitude in handling his toughest moments in his life – to seek God’s presence, to never let go of God.
This week’s sermon, Pastor Kong preached about Jacob – about how he wrestled with God to get his blessing, about how he is unwilling to let God go until God touch him.
All of us have problems in seasons of our lives. I was looking at my past sermon notes, and found Mike Connell’s ‘Overcoming disappointments’ sermon.
There’s a difference between endurance and perseverance in tough seasons of your life.
Enduring | Persevering |
忍 = placing a knife over your heart Burying all your pain; accumulating it. | Joyful expectancy that the Lord will/ is able to help us. |
Trust God today that He is an able God. He is able to transform you and bring you out of your valley.
Look for the right source to release your disappointment/hurts. Find rest in His presence and word.
Let go. Release. Forgive.
Open your heart to God.
HIGHLIGHT: Psalms 42 !!!!
