Thoughts for another day

Feb. 1, 2014.

Today's verse: Ps. 73:26.  My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever. (KJV)

(Pls. read the above before you read further.  Thanks)

No matter where I’ll be the next moment, no the matter the problem I face, my being has only one refrain…God is the strength of my heart; my portion forever.  That’s the truth of my life and the lives of many of my Christian friends and other Christians around the world for we know that Yahweh Shammah is always there.   He is for us, a Refuge; a strong Tower into which we run and are safe.

How sweet are the Words of our Scripture today to a soul fed on the body and blood of the Savior, expecting nothing else but, a room in the Father’s mansion to live in eternally; to gaze at His countenance day and night in awesome awe and reverence having been given the ability to worship at His throne as His Holy Spirit gave the utterance ‘Abba Father’ signifying that you and I are His child, heir of His throne…yeah, throne for what else will the child of a King inherit, but His Father’s throne. 

In living this life, I know there’re perils galore, for the enemy of souls, doesn’t look with joy at those whose hearts are tuned to heaven and he sends barbs, both painful and intense, for in his lies he somehow feels I’ll be unhappy with God and leave Him.  But, He doesn’t realise the fortitude of God’s chosen ones who’re His from even before the foundation of the world.  Between sobs and tears in my heart I look up to the heavens and see His face just like Stephen did when they stoned him to death, and I see God’s glory and the Precious Son of Man at his right hand and I know that though my heart fail, and my flesh collapse, I’ll yet sing a song for I know that God is the strength of my heart and my all forever.  Who or what can be against me then?
