My dear friend Jill Kanyike invited me to share with her ladies at the Bible Study for Calvary Chapel Kampala this Tuesday. They have been studying, “Loving God with all Your Mind,” by Elizabeth George. The scripture for this week is:
Romans 11:33: Oh,
the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How
unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!
On the same page as this verse is the
topic heading, “Accepting the Unacceptable” and before I looked at anything
else the Lord began to stir my heart…
Maybe you are in a place that feels
unacceptable, impossible, excruciatingly painful, hopeless, unending, and at
the same time you realize it’s unavoidable. Don’t give up ~ don’t give ~
Christ the Great Shepherd's skilled eyes will lead you THROUGH this
Valley of Death… look into His eyes not at the war zone you are trapped in and
trust in His Spirit to revive you!
He is RICH in Love, Mercy, Peace, Hope,
Strength, Comfort…
His
knowledge is limitless ~ all the facts are crystal
clear to Him and
Divine
Wisdom means His next step will PERFECTLY meet every demand…
The
HOW and the WHY are unsearchable, beyond my comprehension...
But Beloved the WHO is not outside our situation...Jesus longs to show you Himself!
But Beloved the WHO is not outside our situation...Jesus longs to show you Himself!
… I pray for you
constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give
you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of
God. I pray that your hearts will be
flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope He has given
to those He called—His holy people who are His rich and glorious
inheritance. I also pray that you will
understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe Him. This
is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him in the
place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms. He is far above
any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else~not only in this
world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority
of Christ and has made Him head over all things for the benefit of the church... His body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills
all things everywhere with Himself. ~Ephesians 1:16~23
The enemy lives to discourage our hearts
and it’s time to FIGHT back!
Stop, bow your heart, and breathe out a
quick prayer asking God to show you
…the incredible greatness of His
power;
…the
height, depth, breadth, and width of His unconditional love,
…the
exceeding richness of His grace;
…or
any other facet of His awesomeness…
That simple prayer will shatter the
onslaught of the enemy in your valley…
If
you ask, He will answer!
