Bible Verse of the Day Saturday July 1st ,2023

Psalms 138:8 The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever— do not abandon the works of your hands.

God has a life plan for each of us as His children, and the most incredible thing we can accomplish in this life is to recognize that purpose for our lives and follow through with carrying out that plan. We can always rest assured that His plan for our lives will work out for good in this life. We can always place our faith and trust in God's plan because it stems from His wisdom and love for us. If we continue to seek God's will for our lives, surrendering them to Him, it will work out for our good because it has its foundation in God's love and wisdom. Sometimes in our walk with God, we drift out of the stream of His will for our lives, but not out of the main channel. If we do not abandon Him and His will for our lives, He will never forsake us but use us in His mission of spreading the Gospel to all the world.

Satan leads many people to believe that God may somehow lose control over our situations. However, God will never lose control over any position we find ourselves in this life. God will never give up on us; we can always trust He will intercede for us in whatever problems we might face. The question before us is do we have faith in God that he will never leave or forsake us. There is no end to God's grace; we will always receive grace for grace (John 1:16). It is like standing beside a mighty running river. The water we see at any given time is not the same water we saw a heartbeat before. It's still the water but in continuous movement. God's love, mercy, and grace are always in constant motion, ready to refresh us in our mission here on this earth. 

Nothing happens in our lives that God is not aware of. The teaching that God is always aware of every event in our lives is, sad to say, neglected in this day in age. It is very assuring to know that our lives are not random occurrences, and that God is always in control of every aspect of our lives. When we deposit our money in the bank, we have faith that money will be there when we need it. If we choose to keep our money in some place in our homes, there is a possibility we might lose that money through robbers or housefires. When we commit our lives, hearts, minds, bodies, and souls to God, we trust Him and grant Him the opportunity to do something with our lives. This world has no sweeter peace than when we completely surrender our lives to God.
