Morning with Ebenezer

CHRISTIAN LIVING

If you will humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, in his good time he will lift you up.

 Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.

 Be careful—watch out for attacks from Satan, your great enemy. He prowls around like a hungry, roaring lion, looking for some victim to tear apart.

1 Peter 5:6-8 TLB

The Bible teaches us to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God that in due time He may lift us up. I believe the Bible mean that we need to walk according to the Lord's plan in our lives and accept the way He lead us even if it is not like the way we wanted. In the process of obeying the will of God in our lives there by God is going to take us in another level.

Then Peter continues by saying we should cast away our worries and cares. This means giving Him all kinds of fears of tomorrow, problems that we are facing today and the wounds of the past. Having that confidence that He will listen to us whenever we ask Him for anything in line of His will; because He is always thinking about us and watching everything that concerns us.

He then continues that we should be careful and watch attacks from Satan; this teaches us that not all problems that we are facing are the cause of nature but others are attacks from the devil. This enemy goes around like a roaring lion looking for someone to attack and eat. He will not only attack your health, finance, family but also he will attack your spiritual condition that you may for some reasons leave the Lord.

This morning, I just want you to know humbleness before God, trust in His Word and lives of prayer are among of the keys to successful Christian living. If you want to be successful in your walk with the Lord make sure you live within those important keys. You will see the hand of the Lord being with you in all stages of your life, and by reading His Word your faith will be increased day to day. 

God will rebuke Satan out of your life and he will have no dominion of your past memories, present life and future plans. You will pray and see the result, you will purpose to do something and it will be done because your God, your Father will be with you.

****Morning Prayer****

Pray this prayer with me by faith and God is going to answer your prayer....


Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for your Word. Lord I'm asking that You may help me to walk in humbleness before You. Build in me the desire to read your Word, live the life of prayer and obey your commandments. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
