GHG SHORT DEVOTIONALS - 33 (YOU WILL NOT PERISH)

“…do You not care that we are perishing?" - Mark 4:39

In the recent past you are asking this question to God as you feel that your life is sinking. You are in a troubled situation for long and you feel that you are surrounded by darkness as your prayers seems to be unheard. You could not find a way to move forward as everything has gone out of your control. Your mind is filled with so many questions and the most important one is, does God really cares about me and my situation? 

1.     God’s heart yearns for you.

“Is not Ephraim My dear son, the child in whom I delight? Though I often speak against Him, I still remember Him. Therefore, My heart yearns for Him; I have great compassion for Him," declares the Lord.” – Jeremiah 31:20

2.     He will take control.

“Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be still..." - Mark 4:39

3.     He will save you and you will not perish.

“…And the wind ceased and there was a great calm." - Mark 4:39

4.     Have faith in God and do not fear.

“Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong.” – 1 Corinthians 16:13

However hard your life’s situation might be, do not fear and have faith in God. Because God cares for you and He will do great things in your life.

On that day when a windstorm arose and waves began to spill over the boat, they saw the situation around them and were frightened. They thought they will perish and God doesn’t care about them. But then Jesus did a miracle and saved their life.

He will do the same to you. You will definitely see the miracles and wonders which God’s Hands are going to do in your life. You will be comforted says God to you.

SONGS I LIKE - 41 (HOW CAN I GIVE YOU UP? BY SHYJU MATHEW - WITH LYRICS)

LYRICS:



Day by day – my promises wait,
The more I called, the more they ran.
Yet it was me – who taught you to walk,
I held you in my arms and bent down to feed.
For I am God, and not a man,
I’ll hold my wrath and bring you home.

How can I give u up?
How can I hand u over?
How can I make you like them?
How can I, how can I, how can I?

My heart recoils within me…
My compassion grows warm & tender…
I’ll take your heart – the heart of stone,
And revive you, with a heart of flesh.
Come back to me – I wait for you
My arms open wide, from the day on the cross.
For I am God, and not a man,
I’ll quieten you with songs of love

GHG SHORT DEVOTIONALS - 32 (YOUR FACE WILL NO LONGER BE SAD)

“…her face was no longer sad.” – 1 Samuel 1:18

Hannah went to the presence of the Lord and wept in anguish. She was in bitterness of soul says Bible. But then when she finished her prayer she was no longer sad.

Your face will no longer be sad says God to you today.

What kind of situation Hannah went through?

1.     She went through miserable situation because of somebody.

2.     Her state of agony seems to be a drunken state to somebody.

Even today you might be going through a sorrowful state. People around you might not understand what you are going through. Someone might have called you a wicked person. You might face wrath of someone for the things that you have not done. Do not lose hope. God will do justice. 

What Hannah did that brought joy into her life?

1.     She poured her heart to God and she believed in God.

Her situation had not changed immediately after she poured her heart to God. But she had never let her situation trouble her once she gave that matter into the Hands of God. She believed that definitely God will answer her prayers and so she was no longer unhappy. God changed her sorrow to joy. God remember her as she believed in God. 

God will remove all your sorrows and fill your heart with His peace as you have cried unto God. God will open all the doors that was closed in your life. He will not despise your tears for He cares for you. Believe that God will do miracle in your life and surely, He will do so.
