JESUS IS ALIVE

[Pastor Edith Chima]

When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then Thou knewest my path....I cried unto Thee, O Lord:  I said, Thou are my refuge and my portion in the land of the living....Psalm 142:3,5

God's purpose is not to destroy us, but to restore us.  The enemy is the destroyer, but God has promised to restore the things the enemy has taken from our lives - all the years of lost joy, all the times of frustration and defeat, all the moments of regret, all the pains of lost opportunities, all the hurts of broken relationships.  God is building His kingdom within you - a kingdom of joy, love, peace, righteousness, victory, redemption, and right relationships.  If you are hurting, if you are feeling alone, if your are confused, if you are in bondage to sin.........please, please turn your eyes upon Jesus!...."and the the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace!"  God loves you so much.  He is working His purpose out in and through you.

Well, I have good news for you. The Lord wants to restore your vision. He wants to help you to see the goodness that He has for you and the direction that He wants you to go in.

When the enemy comes in to try and divert you and shake you up, keep looking to the Lord and let Him restore your vision. Laugh at the enemy in spite of his attempts to unsettle you and rejoice in the Lord, because He is gi...ving you  the victory! You may feel defeated and feel like he is laughing at you, but you can laugh back in his face, because you have the victory! He can never keep you down for long.

Every dead thing or situation in your life has been resurrected today in Jesus name, Amen.

Happy Resurrection Day to you all!
