But
Those
Who
Trust In The Lord
Will
Find New Strength
Scripture
Isaiah
40
31 But those who
trust in the Lord will find new strength.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.
They will soar high on wings like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They will walk and not faint.
Isaiah
41
10 Don’t be
afraid, for I am with you.
Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
Observation
I
got word yesterday that my very good friend, Missionary John Seale,
went home to be with Jesus.
After
so much suffering my friend John is home!
John
and his wife Jeanie never stopped serving the Lord during this entire
time of sickness. What a man of God!
Christians
across the entire island of Cuba will mourn with us over this loss.
I
think of his wife Jeanie, their two daughters, and their
grandchildren this morning as I write this blog.
These
verses are for them today and for anyone else going through
difficult times.
And
let me add one more that I know will be in tomorrow's daily Bible
reading.
...
It
is found in Isaiah 43!
2
When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go
through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown.
When you walk
through the fire of oppression you will not be burned up; the flames
will not consume you.
3
For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.”
…
When
we go through suffering and times of loss there is an anchor for our
souls – His name is Jesus!
“This
hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls” … Hebrews
6:19
Application
I
will hold on to the promises of God when I go through times of
difficulty. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I pray for Jeanie Seale and her family. You are the God of
all comfort and all compassion. I pray that You comfort Jeanie and
her family today. Give them the strength they need to get through
this difficult time. Show them Your love and Your power. May they
sense Your presence and I pray that You draw them close and take care
of every need that they have. You are God. Nothing is too hard for
You!

Bible Reading: Isaiah 40,41,42; 1 Peter 3
