In Job 5:12-16 & 24, Eliphaz, as he falsely accuses Job of wrongdoing, he mentions some words of encouragement for anyone who may be feeling aggrieved or oppressed. May these words comfort and encourage you.

I don’t know what you are trusting God for, but one thing that I know is that nothing is impossible for Him. The critical thing is to be in His will. Acts 17:24-30 paints the picture of God the creator as one who created the world and by one man produced humanity as we know it today. He made the nations and demarcated their boundaries. There is nothing too difficult for Him.

May we see God (His love, character, power) and His will even in the midst of all we are going through and all that’s happening around us. May our faith in Him be strengthened continuously. May we realise the importance He places on a relationship with us. May we in turn be transformed more and more into what He wants each of us to be. Romans 8:28-32. Shalom.

Concerning Corona, work, business, kids, health, etc, Romans 8:35-39 is very reassuring. None of the challenges should separate us from God’s love. Despite the pressures, be assured or His love.

May the Lord keep us safe for we take refuge in Him. May we not chase after other gods. May we enjoy that which the Lord has assigned us and what He has secured for us and the delightful inheritance He has assured us. May we always give Him prominence and stand firm in Him. May we enjoy rest in Him and be glad. May we get to know the path of life He has set forth for us and be filled with joy in His presence and have eternal pleasures He provides. Amen. Psalms 16.

Acts 2:25-28 quotes parts of Psalm 16 written by David. The theme of that Psalm is the joys and benefits of a life lived in companionship with God. Please take time and read and meditate on that Psalm. Be encouraged and purpose to be God’s companion on this journey of life.

There are some things that remain constant, no matter what happens around us. One such thing is mentioned in Acts 2:25-28. It is the unchanging love of God. We may be uncertain about when schools will reopen, work, etc. But God remains the same. We can be assured of that. I choose to remain hopeful and focused on Him and His unchanging nature.

Paul’s attitude in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 is encouraging. He surrenders his weakness to the Lord, trusting that God will take control in that area and show Himself strong on Paul’s behalf. He talks about this problem with others. That would have made it possible for him to be held accountable. How are you dealing with your thorn?

Do you have a thorn that the Lord has allowed in your life? Why has He allowed it? Paul knew what His thorn was. He had prayed asking God to remove it, but to no avail. He knew why God had placed it in him. What about you? 2 Corinthians 12:7-9a.

May we also look at our situation and realise that we have a role to play in moving to the next level, even as we trust Him to guide us. He will use what He has uniquely placed in us to accomplish the tasks He wants us to do. He may also use challenges we face to help us accomplish the task. 2 Corinthians 12:7-9a.
