When tired and frustrated -- DO NOT GIVE UP!

Things been sooooo crazy lately with moving /shifting things around preparing for

another chapter of my life and wasn’t able to do my lil readings.

So here I am catching up and sharing with you some of my lil daily readings

and hope it will bless you too. You see, this has become my “Soul refreshment” ..

I have developed or still learning more of this habit that instead

of WORRYING OR ANXIOUS or COMPLAINING about many things,

I just choose to sit and read #Bibleverses like these cuz it amazingly lifts me up

and helps me get back up again.

Who says the bible is boring? (well, I used to. But I WAS WRONG!) Can sit and read with me? No matter what’s going on in my life right now I can honestly say “Surely, the battle is the Lords!

I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME! Upps almost forgot my coffee.

(Psalm 92: 2-3, 13-14, 15-16)

R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

It is good to give thanks to the LORD,

    to sing praise to your name, Most High,

To proclaim your kindness at dawn

    and your faithfulness throughout the night.

R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

The just one shall flourish like the palm tree,

    like a cedar of Lebanon shall he grow.

They that are planted in the house of the LORD

    shall flourish in the courts of our God.

R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

They shall bear fruit even in old age;

    vigorous and sturdy shall they be,

Declaring how just is the LORD,

    my rock, in whom there is no wrong.

R. Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

     Lord, it is good to give thanks to you.

How Jesus saved an atheist on her death bed :) | Cassidy Kellagher Testimony

I love it when she said, "Just give Jesus a try. You got nothing to lose."

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my story! All glory to God. You’re not alone. Don’t give up. Jesus is with you every step of the way. Feel free to share this video if you feel called to ❤️ The verse that reflects my testimony: “God disciplines people with pain on their sickbeds, with ceaseless aching in their bones. They lose their appetite for even the most delicious food. Their flesh wastes away, and their bones stick out. They are at death’s door; the angels of death wait for them. “But if an angel from heaven appears— a special messenger to intercede for a person and declare that he is upright— he will be gracious and say, ‘Rescue him from the grave, for I have found a ransom for his life.’ Then his body will become as healthy as a child’s, firm and youthful again. When he prays to God, he will be accepted. And God will receive him with joy and restore him to good standing. He will declare to his friends, ‘I sinned and twisted the truth, but it was not worth it. God rescued me from the grave, and now my life is filled with light.’” ‭‭Job‬ ‭33:19-28‬ ‭

The Real Meaning of being Rigtheous

 

The Real Meaning of being Rigtheous

 

 What has a right understanding of your righteousness got to do with expecting good to happen to you today? Everything!

Many believers associate righteousness with a list of things that they have to do, and if they fulfill this list, they feel "righteous." Conversely, when they fail in terms of their behavior, they feel "unrighteous." But this is the wrong definition and understanding of righteousness.

Let's go back to what the Bible has to say. Look at 2 Corinthians 5:21: "For He [God] made Him [Jesus Christ] who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him [Jesus Christ]." We are not righteous because we do right. We became righteous because of what Jesus did for us at the cross. "Righteousness," therefore, is not based on our right doing. It is based entirely on Jesus' right doing. Christianity is not about doing right to become righteous. It is all about believing right in Jesus to become righteous.

Do you realize that we have been conditioned to associate being blessed with doing right? Most belief systems are based on a system of merit whereby you need to fulfill certain requirements—give to the poor, do good to others and care for the underprivileged—to attain a certain state of righteousness. It all sounds very noble, self-sacrificial and appealing to our flesh, which likes to feel that our good works have earned us our righteousness.

But God is not looking at your nobility, sacrifices or good works to justify you. He is only interested in Jesus' humility at the cross. He looks at His Son's perfect sacrifice at Calvary to justify you and make you righteous! Attempting to be justified by your good works and trying your best to keep the Ten Commandments to become righteous is to negate the cross of Jesus Christ. It is as good as saying, "The cross is not enough to justify me. I need to depend on my good works to make myself clean and righteous before God."

The apostle Paul said, "I do not frustrate the grace [unmerited favor] of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain." My friend, consider carefully what Paul is saying here. He is effectively saying that if you are depending on your good works, your doing and your ability to keep perfectly the Ten Commandments to become righteous, then Jesus died for nothing! That's what "in vain" means—for nothing! So don't frustrate the grace of God by depending on your good works to make yourself righteous and put God on your side. Jesus' sacrifice is more than enough to justify you! And when you know that you are justified, you can be confident that the unmerited favor of God is on your side and expect good to happen to you today!
