Romans 13:10 “Love does no harm to a neighbor, therefore, love is the fulfillment of the law.”

Jesus came to fulfill the law, not to cast it out. The 10 commandments are still there & we need to obey them. The world, when they look at the Bible & us as Christians, they see the law “thou shalt not”. To them it’s just rules & rules they don’t necessarily want to obey. But the Word says, Jesus came to fulfill the law. How? through LOVE, for Jesus is love. When you have Jesus (love) you walk in love and when you walk in love, you fulfill the law without even thinking about it. Because love does no harm! Read Romans 13:8-14

Zephaniah 3:17 “The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”

Our God is mighty to save!! Whatever circumstance you find yourself in today, the Mighty One will save! That loved one who is still in the world, the Mighty One will save. That co-worker who persecutes you, the Mighty One will save. The teenager you know, whom the world has no hope for, the Mighty One will save!

Zephaniah 3:17 “The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One will save.  He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”

This goes along with Heb 13:5 “….I will never leave you nor forsake you”,  God is in your midst.  He is with you every step you take!  He is with you in all that you do, you are never alone.  He is your friend, comforter and helper in time of need.  Call on Him today, in whatever circumstance you find yourself in, He is right there.  He will rejoice with you in victories won and will be your strength in victories still to be won.

Matthew 25:23 “His Lord said to him “Well done good and faithful servant, you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things.  Enter into the joy of your lord.”

Sometimes we get so focused on doing great and mighty things for God that we forget about being faithful in the little things.  Our faith grows as we serve in the little things and that prepares us for the bigger things God has for us.  He is watching and if you are faithful in doing good and doing it with a pure and excellent heart, God will reward you in due season.  Remember that God has placed you where ever you are now, for a season.  I want to encourage you today to stay hopeful, do not get discouraged in doing good and always stay faithful in the little things.

2 Corinthians 12:9 “And he said to me “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”

In our weakness, He is made strong. In our weakness, as painful as it can be, that is where we truly depend on God and through it, He shows Himself strong in our lives. Don’t be afraid of your weaknesses, for God is there and through that, He not only reveals Himself to you, but also to the world.

1 Corinthians 3:11 “For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”

Jesus is the foundation of the building, and we are to build on His foundation. We need to take heed of how and with what we build, because on The Day, it will be judged by fire. If we build wisely, it will remain, but if not it will be consumed by fire and it will show as works of the flesh and not of God. Are you a wise builder for the Kingdom? Read 1 Cor 3:5-17

Luke 12:42 “And the Lord said “who then is that faithful & wise steward, whom his master will make ruler over his household, to give them their portion of food in due season?”

God needs people whom He can work with to get His will done here on earth. He needs someone who will be faithful and act on His Word. Someone who is alert to the move of the Holy Spirit, knows His Word and will be obedient to it. God needs people He can count on, whom He can trust over His household. Are you a faithful steward?

Isaiah 55:8-9 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.”

There are times in our lives where we know that we know that God wants us to do something, yet our flesh kicks against it with all its might. Sometimes we do what God wants us to do, yet we feel remorse in our hearts because it just doesn’t make sense in the natural. This is where we need to guard our hearts and always remember this scripture. His ways are truly higher than ours, and in the end, God always have our best interest at heart. You may not understand it now, but trust and obey Him and feed on His faithfulness.

Ezekiel 36:26 “I will give you a new heart & put a new spirit within you. I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh & give you a heart of flesh.”

Have you hardened your heart towards God? Towards His way & will for your life? Well friend, today God wants to remove that heart of stone, rebellion & unforgiveness. We don’t always understand God’s will but we need to trust Him. Let go of the things that can’t be changed and allow your heart to be pliable and teachable again. Allow God to heal and restore what has been lost and receive your new heart of flesh today.

John 10:27 “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.”

Motives, ambitions and preconceived ideas, can make it difficult for us to recognize God’s voice. All these things can make us hear what we want to hear and not necessarily what God is telling us. It is important to remember, that the voice we hear inside, must always agree with God’s Word.
