right to the edge

Just having a thought...that at times the Lord waits until we are pushed right to the edge until we're about to fall...

then His hands would catch us and right there we see Him.

We then see His providence and saving hands...

I still believe... that those who hope in the Lord will not be disappointed.

I then say to my soul, why downcast O, my soul? put your hope in God...be still and know that He is God.

an battle-full day

My first class today! :) so excited! not too sure what to expect..and oh dear how God has a different things in mind about my day today. I thought that I would just leave the house, drive there and that's about it.

Started my day with God's promises and His presence :) not knowing that the moment there I had would help me throughout the day. Had a frantic afternoon running around to get something settled, anxiety almost creep in, but I was just praying throughout..the battle for my peace.

Then started driving to Maroochydore, where the class is (haha!), it was about 115kms away, and in the highway, had this crazy blind driver almost ran into my car...had a moment there..but praise God it didn't happen...fear almost creep in...and I was praying throughout...the battle for my peace.

I realized that everyday is a battle, where our attitude must be one where we would proclaim the truth in the face of challenges, taking hold of His promises of our inheritance. The Lord was teaching me, that if I stay passive, the enemy that tries to steal, kill and destroy our inheritance would actually succeed in that. He has given us all that we need to overcome, His words that's the sword of the Spirit, and to stand, putting on the whole armor of God. Passivity and complacency will leave us defeated and helpless, where His heart is for us to be victorious and to be conquerors in Him who gives us strength.

It was an awakening in my Spirit, it's time to take hold of the inheritance of God's promises, possessing the enemy's gates and walking into the promise land.

I know that the battle has been won, now I just need to declare the victory in the face of the enemy.

Pray unceasingly for all saints, for everything and anything, in this way we are paving the way for the Kingdom to come on earth, and to carry each other's burden. What a great responsibility and privilege!

Hmm, aside from that, I had a great class meeting!! Met a group of people who are passionate about what they want to do in life, and that they are actually doing it. Learning a lot. Time where something was sparked within me...who knows what He can do through this? But need to catch up on few weeks studies..hehe...Lord, help! :)
