Nothing can outdo the will of God for you if you abide in Him. Herod tried killing all the male children in Bethlehem and its environs who were aged two years and under so as to get rid of the king of the Jews who was to be born there. But Jesus still survived and fulfilled God’s plan for humanity. Matthew 2:16.

The hope we have in God should not be just a feeling that things will improve in the future. May we be witnesses of its fulfillment over and over again, just like the disciples lived to see Christ live again and the church of God take root. May His power be manifest in our midst and may the body of Christ be encouraged by His ministry. Ephesians 1:17-21.

I sometimes spend time trying to figure out how some things will be resolved or will work out, but I don’t see how it will happen. But eventually things work out. I am therefore trying to learn to keep an open mind. The building of the temple was stopped, lies were peddled to frustrate this effort, but God’s will prevailed. Ezra 5:6-17.

Let us not be discouraged even in difficult times for Lord is with us. Let us also learn from those who are older than us or who have gone before us. We have a part to play. 1 Corinthians 10:1-13.

The Word of God has many examples of God’s faithfulness throughout the ages. Let us keep praying that He would have mercy on us and that we may continue enjoying His faithfulness. Psalm 85:1-7.

One reason for pressing on in prayer is God’s faithfulness. I’m sure if we take time to evaluate our lives and the lives of those around us we will attest to His faithfulness. Despite Peter’s temper, denial of Christ, etc, the promise of Matthew 16:18-19 concerning him still came to pass after the death of Jesus. Peter became an integral member of the leadership of the church.

Part of our walk of faith us upholding ourselves and others in prayer. We also pray for circumstances as the Lord leads us. Let us not give up. Press in and trust Him. Isaiah 62:6-9.

So hopefully we will accept God’s mercy and love extended to us through the death of Christ on the cross, if we hadn’t done so already. And if we had, may we always remember this great opportunity and forever be grateful for it. God operates in mercy and love and we should also emulate Him as much as we can. Happy Easter ? ?. John 3:16-17.

His mercy is seen in the Easter story too. Death to self and new life in Him is an acceptance of His mercy. New life in Him is made possible by the Wonderful Counsellor. If Easter never happened, if God never extended His mercy towards us, things would have been different. Titus 3:6-7.
