Are you troubled today?
"And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled?..." Luke 24:36-38
Jesus gave a word of assurance in Luke 24 as He was preparing His disciples for the climactic events over the next several days. I believe His words are very applicable to any situation or trouble that we all go through.
"Do not let your hearts be troubled" Jesus forthrightly commands. We need to recognize that "peace of heart" is available to all and most desirable in the midst of troubling circumstances.
Are you troubled because of your circumstance? Today I must tell you there is reason to hope. The Bible tells us that God will never leave us. He can make something beautiful out of ugly circumstances.
He can bring good out of what others meant for evil. He still offers hope, peace and words of inspiration to each of us today. God is in control, even in the middle of these troubled times we can be at peace knowing - God does not change... Ever!
Jesus asked His disciples, "Why are ye troubled?" Are you troubled? So many people are troubled over their marriage, or their family. Their spouses have walked away from their vows and are living in disobedience.
Whatever is your situation today, take your cares and burdens to the Lord in prayer. Ask Him to stand with you and give you peace that only He can give.
Let's look at some of the comforting words of our Lord. "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."(John 14:1-3)
Matthew 11:28-30, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." Let the Lord help you carry your burdens.
Take your situation in prayer to the Lord. Every one of us faces needs and trials in our lives. Sometimes they are beyond our own means or understanding. These are not the times to panic or to give up in defeat. These are the times to have faith, and trust the Lord will meet and supply our need from His unlimited resources, as only He can.
If you have been receiving these daily devotionals, will you consider supporting this Ministry today? I am praying that as I pray to the Lord daily to speak to the hearts of wayward spouses, He will also speak to hearts of those who have not been supporting this Ministy. Will you help today? Thanks in advance.
