What's in God's heart?

Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.

That is possibly what God is thinking all the time. He wants us to prosper, and to be in robust health as our souls prosper. He wants us to be so filled of Jesus and His finished work at the cross that we will know Jesus will take care of us in every aspect of our lives, that He is vitally involved in our daily activities.

God is not a God who is far far away in Heaven that we have to be really good in order to be right with Him. He wants to be so close to us that He sent His Holy Spirit to dwell in us. He wants us to filled of the Holy Spirit so that our every word and action is guided and directed by the Holy Spirit. He has His word for us in the bible to know more of Jesus, to have a fresh revelation of Jesus daily.

God only has good thoughts toward us. He wants us to come to Him boldly. He wants to commune with us every moment. He loves us so much as to send His only begotten Son to divinely exchange His position with us at the cross.

Be bold to go to Abba Father for even the smallest thing that bothers us, for He cares. Nothing is too small or too big for our God. Put our trust in Him and He will see us through. Hallelujah!

Casting all your cares upon Him for He cares

Cast all your cares upon Jesus for He cares.

The bible says that we ought to cast ALL our cares upon Jesus for He is willing, and able to resolve all our problems. The bible also says that the accuser of the brethen goes about devouring those who he can devour. Who are those which he can devour? It is those who still, trusting their own effort to solve their issues, hold on to the cares of their hearts.

Sometimes, we think that we should only "bother" God with only the big issues that we have no resolution. We feel that we are more than capable to tackle the "simple" cares of our lives. We should cast ALL our cares upon Jesus for He is able. We honour the finished work at by Jesus when we cast all our cares upon him.

Maybe some of us are going through a challenging time dealing with marital issues. Maybe some of us are experiencing lack in our finances. Perhaps some of us are feeling the symptoms of a dreaded disease. Or it is something as simple as choosing where to eat for lunch. Whatever big or small the issue may be, we are to leave it at the feet of Jesus and allow Him to work miracle in that situation.

Nothing is impossible for God. He loves us so much that He wants us to have a Christ-filled life. Trust in the Lord who loves dearly.

Good things happen when you behold Jesus

Casting all your cares upon Him for He cares. He cares about me more than I care about myself. When one casts all his cares upon Jesus, good things always happen.

There are many testimonies on how married couple just don't bother about trying to have a child and just enjoy each other's presence and the next thing you know the wife is pregnant with a child.

There are people who don't think about their diseases and just behold Jesus having all their diseases completely removed from their bodies. There are many testimonies on people who got healed of terminal illness.

There are also many testimonies where Jesus just take away a person's huge debt. Some of them are just simple miraculous. That's how Jesus will work in our lives.

Whatever difficult challenges that we are facing, behold Jesus. For He is Alpha and Omega, the Author and Finisher of our faith. He always has the last word in our lives and He is always having good thoughts towards us. The bible says He will never leave us nor forsake us.

Jesus is ever ready to take care of our cares, if only we will place those cares upon Him. Trust Him and good things will happen to us.

I Am that I Am

I Am that I Am. That's God answer to our every question. He is the very present help in times of need!

When the children of Israel was suffering at the hands of the Egyptians, God appeared as a burning fire in a burning bush. He identified Himself with His people for His people were suffering as slaves. He heard His children every groan.

When the children of Israel was wandering and wondering in the wilderness and dwelling in tents, God was dwelling in the tabernacle. In the heat of the day, He appeared as a pillar of cloud to keep His children cool. In the cold of the night, He appeared as a pillar of fire to keep His children warm.

When Joshua took over the helm of leading God's people into the promised land and was facing Jericho, God appeared as a warring Angel. He told Joshua to circle around Jericho and shout His praise on the seven day and the wall of Jericho came tumbling down.

My God is the I Am God. When we are suffering from illness or diseases, He is our healing. When we are suffering from lack, He is our provision. When we are suffering from relationship breakdown, He is the glue that keep us together.

He is always ready to jump into our situation and turn the situation into our favour. He is always ready to take care of our cares once we cast them into His hand. Be bold to go to the mercy seat in times of need for God is always there for us. Just trust in Him. Hallelujah.

How to live a worry-free Christian life?

Many Christians live their lives as if they don't have Jesus in their lives. They rob their future by worrying in their present. They are anxious about their future and they are constantly living in regret for past failures.

How then do Christians live a worry-free life? The answer is pretty simple: look to Jesus and cast all your cares upon Him. How do Christians look to Jesus and cast their cares upon Him? Christians look to Jesus by beholding Jesus. By the inward knowing that Jesus had finished a complete work at the cross some two thousand years ago.

Christians can look to Jesus in the word of God in the bible. By looking into the bible, Christians will be able to see Jesus as who He really is. Jesus heals the sick, comforts the afflicted, provides for the needy, proclaims the good news to everyone and goes about doing good. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He is always working while Christians are sleeping and turning everything for the good of Christians. He has provided for all our needs and is still providing. He is everything that we need.

When Christians cast their cares upon Jesus, their are putting their trust in Jesus that He is the Lord of their lives and He will take care of their cares. They are no longer striving to turn things around by their own efforts. They can come to the point whereby they are at rest inwardly. For the bible says, the devil goes about seeking those that he can devour. Therefore, if a Christian is not restful inwardly, he is subjective to the devouring of the devil.

Be at rest and cast all your cares upon Jesus. Do not be afraid. Let go and let God. That way, we will be able to live a worry-free Christian life.

"Faithing"

Some of us neglect our walk with Christ after the so-called honeymoon period after our salvation day. We think that since we have faith on our salvation day, we will have faith for the rest of our lives.

But faith in the bible is usually a verb and not a noun. It is "faithing". We are to believe and continue to believe that God is love and He is always good to us, regardless of our circumstances. We are to have faith in God.

God wants us to turn to Him for every need in our lives on a daily basis. He wants to communicate with us every moment. He wants us to cast all our cares upon Him. He has a master plan for everyone of us, and his master plan for us is always good for us.

God's manna is only fresh for the day only. We can't live on yesterday's manna. That's why we should look to God to provide us our daily bread, our daily provisions. Do not worry about tomorrow.

Our thought lives

Many a times we act according to what our minds tell us to do. It pretty much determines our actions outwardly. We will react to circumstances when our minds tell us to even when the outward circumstances are not exactly what our minds perceive.

How important, then, to have the right belief that God is a good God and that He cares for us more than we care for ourselves? He already knows all our cares and just waiting for us to cast them into His mighty hands. When we are conscious of how good God is to us, our action will follow suit. We will live lives that of king-priests, for we are born of the royal priesthood.

When we give glory to God, we will see good things happening in our lives. All outward circumstances will align themselves with our inward thoughts for they are aligned with God's will in our lives.

Let go and let God

Count God faithful! When we are faithless, He is faithful. He will not rest till all our challenges have been overcome, all our issues are resolved.

Many of us feel that we are capable of great achievements. And rightfully so for those who are in Christ! However, how often do we find ourselves in a tight spot that we are not able, with our own effort, to get out of. For without Christ, we are nothing and we can do nothing. But we can do all things in Christ who strengthens us!

Lets cast all our cares at the feet of Jesus for He cares. Our worries and fears will not change the outcome of a difficult situation. But God can turn all things, including those that are adversed to us, for our good. He is more than willing to take care of all our cares. The moment we let Him take over, all our cares will be taken care of.

Therefore, stop striving to get things done through our own effort. Allow the Holy Spirit in us to work in and through us, with the peace of God, to bring about the completeness of things. Be restful at heart and mind and trust in the goodness of God . For He is good and His mercy endures forever.
