GOD HAS PREPARED SOMETHING FOR YOU

Psalm 31:19 NKJV Oh, how great is Your goodness, Which You have laid up for those who fear You, Which You have prepared for those who trust in You In the presence of the sons of men!

I love this verse because it talks about the goodness God has already prepared for you and me, which means there are a whole lot of blessings He has lined up ready for us to walk into in the coming days, and Ephesians 3:20 says they go even beyond what we can think or imagine!😊 

The good news is they’re not depending on our performance but on what Jesus has already done which takes the pressure off us. He gives us blessings we don’t even deserve but that is the nature and grace of our amazing God. And if we need extra grace today then we can come and receive it, just for the asking. How awesome is that! So don’t forget to ask!😊

No matter what you intend to do today you are under the blessing of God, when you go out and when you come back in and everything in between. In fact why not just go ahead and thank God in advance by faith for the blessings and favour He has lined up for you today.

Just knowing God is walking by our side every moment is a blessing because we’re not going to do anything in our own strength but with His strength, His power, His wisdom, His help so we’re on the winning side. We have the advantage.😊

What a lovely way to begin the week, knowing we have the God who is all sufficient for anything and everything on the inside of us, and He’s anointed and equipped us for today. It doesn’t come much better than that, so go out in confidence in Him, knowing you are a child of God, approved and blessed by Him and you’re ready for anything. Glory to God. In Jesus name.😊Amen.

Psalm 31:19 NLT How great is the goodness you have stored up for those who fear you. You lavish it on those who come to you for protection, blessing them before the watching world.

ABUNDANTLY SATISFIED

Psalm 36:7-9 NKJV 

How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!

Therefore the children of men put their trust 

under the shadow of Your wings.

 They are abundantly satisfied 

with the fullness of Your house,

And You give them drink 

from the river of Your pleasures.

 For with You is the fountain of life;

In Your light we see light.

We probably all have precious things in our lives but none is as precious as the lovingkindness of God! Without that we have no comfort for our souls, no hope, no meaning to our lives, but with it, we have all of that and far more, we are blessed indeed!😊

No wonder the psalmist goes on and says God’s lovingkindness is the reason why we can shelter under His wings. We know that when we do He is always there to protect, provide and guide us throughout everyday of our lives. We will be abundantly satisfied!😊

The Message translation puts it like this : How exquisite your love, O God! How eager we are to run under your wings,To eat our fill at the banquet you spread as you fill our tankards with Eden spring water. You’re a fountain of cascading light, and you open our eyes to light.

God provides a banquet for us at His table, and for us that’s the Lord’s table of the bread and wine. When we partake of the Lord’s supper we’re remembering we have access to all God’s riches because of what Jesus did for us at the Cross. 

At His table is the fountain of life, His cascading light for the dark days, His strength for the battles, His joy to fill our hearts, His healing and forgiveness. 

The analogy of being under our Father’s wings is something we can all picture and it gives us such a sense of security, of being loved and cared for. Whenever we feel afraid or unsettled or insecure we know we can always run to Him to hide us under His wings.😊 (Psalm 17: 8 NKJV Keep me as the apple of Your eye; Hide me under the shadow of Your wings,)

We can praise the Lord with all our hearts today because He has us safely tucked under His wings and His lovingkindness, His life and light are for each one of us that know Jesus as Saviour.😊

Thank You Lord. Amen.
