Philippians 4:8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about these things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
This is a new week and we get to start it and live it with the King of Kings and Lord of Heaven's Armies. Jesus is our Champion, our glorious Saviour, the One who goes before us, who has prepared paths of favour, paths of health and wholeness and prosperity to walk in, hand in hand with Him. He has already borne all our griefs and sorrows so we can partake of His joy.
What a wonderful Saviour. There is no doom and gloom in His lovely presence. There is hope and expectation of good. He surrounds us with His favour. (Psalm 5:12 Nkjv). Jesus said I am come that they may have life, to the full, till it overflows. (John 10:10) That is the Good News of the gospel. Living in right relationship with our Father God, with our sins forgiven, clothed in His righteousness and our eyes are on Him looking to Him all the time with hope and anticipation of good for everything we need.
There are so many wonderful testimonies of God's people all round the world being blessed, healed, restored and prospered. All glory to His Name. Let's remind each other of those.
The scripture commands us to think on all the good things, the things that have virtue, uplifting things not to dwell on the negative and depressing reports. Yes they are real, but God commands us not to rehearse them, not to rehearse what the devil has done, but to rehearse the good things our God has done and is doing for us every day.
I want to lift Jesus Name up high today for all His immense goodness to us all, His kindness that is beyond our understanding and His wonderful grace and mercy if and when we forget just how powerful He is. He rescues us, He heals us, He provides for us, He keeps us safe.
All glory to our God this morning. We give You all our praise today Father and we rejoice in You, in Your salvation and we draw joy out of the well of our salvation today.
Have a good week, God blessed, Holy Spirit filled and led, with our eyes on Him.
