“The Lord has taken away your judgments; He has cast
out your enemy. The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst; You shall see disaster no more." - Zephaniah 3:15
You might
be filled with fear right now worrying something might happen to you that has
happened in the past. The situations that you are facing today might be too
tough to handle and you might feel a void in your heart and mind.
Today
God promises to you that you will not see disaster any more. Whatever that happened
in the past was gone. Your past guilt, wound, failures will not affect the
blessings that God has in store for your future. God is with you.
In II
Samuel chapter 11 we read about how David yielded himself into a temptation. He
committed adultery with Bathsheba. Then he killed Uriah, her husband. The thing
David did displeased God. And then God had sent a prophet to David. When
Nathan, the prophet told a story to David, at the end of it David burned with
anger and said the man who did wrong should be killed.
David
brought judgment upon himself through his words. But yet God spared his life
and took the life of the child which was born to him.
His
heart would have filled with guilt. He knew what he did was wrong. But then
again Bathsheba got pregnant. Surely David would have got so many thoughts. He
might have feared whether the next child will live or die.
A
child was born and Bible says that the Lord loved that child. God blessed the
child with wisdom and wealth. When David came to know that through that child
God will build His temple, his heart would have rejoiced as a father. His fear
and worries would have gone.
Even
today something which you have committed and did in the past might be haunting
you. Your heart might have filled with guilt. You might feel like the situation
and worries will prevail in the coming days also. You are filled with a great
fear about your present situation and you might feel like that there is no hope
for your future.
But
today God says to you that He loves you and He will no longer remember your
sins. For a moment it seems that God might have forsaken you but today Holy
Spirit says to you that God is with you and you will not see disaster any more.
In the same situation which brings fear into your heart, God will do wonders.
You will see God blessing you with greater blessing. You will be filled with
His peace and joy. You will live.
