♕ Today's Promise: “My soul weeps because of grief; strengthen me according to Thy Word.” Psalm 119:28
Dear Brides, Pursuing the Lord will make you glow with radiance that will heal all wounds, and make all fear and shame disappear. Not only will you be free from your pain, but it will empower you to bring others, including your EH to the Lord. Work on developing this intimacy with the Lord. It requires time and heart.
Pursuing only the Lord will make me glow that radiates with so much attraction that men gets drawn to God. Therefore, to pursue the Lord, so that people in general, can be led by this radiance in me to also want it from the Lord. In other words, to use this light to minister to people to the Lord for their salvation.
I used to think that happy people on social media pursuing their worldly dreams were truly happy. But this lesson Chapter 3 "The Love of My Life" taught me that without having the Lord, a man nor a woman, will truly ever be happy.
“For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.” James 2:26
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” Hebrews 11: 6
The first scriptures talks about walking in Faith. The second talks about the promises of having faith. It pleases God and He rewards those who seek Him.
I have been struggling with letting go completely because I have not fully developed that intimacy with the Lord. I am pursuing the Lord for healing, transformation, and greater things, but I still look back by snooping and having my heart broken again into pieces with worry and anxiety.
It shows how I am still lacking with a stronger relationship with the Lord that will change me from inside out so that nothing will shake me! I am still yet to experience the sheer joy and happiness so pure and lacking nothing to live my life abundantly. Every time I head that way, I take 10 steps back again when thoughts get into me to check on him. My biggest mountain here is to overcome the feeling of longing and snooping!
Press on with getting closer to God in prayer, fasting, and giving. Meditate more on His Word and let Him transform me. Wait on Him constantly. Let Him fill every part of me with His Holy Spirit so that I can share the joy and love of the Lord. To love unselfishly. To be concerned about other's happiness more than mine. And when I glow from seeking the Lord, use the radiance to minister to others and bring them all to the Lord. Lord I have been unfaithful to You by sneaking around and hurting myself. Please forgive me and help me move forward.
Let’s pray as we pour out what is in our hearts: Dear Lord, Thank you for your grace which is sufficient in my weaknesses. I praise your name and exalt you on High because You're all I want and You're all I need. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My heart has been overwhelmed lately Lord. But take me to the Rock that is higher than me. I praise You because you cause all things to work for good to those who love you and who have been called according to your purpose. Your in Love, Nova
