Psm 145:13 "Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is faithful to all his promises and loving toward all he has made"
I spent time praying for comm while waiting to fall asleep last night. It was very heavy upon my heart to pray for protection for each of them. Their names went through my mind and I started interceding for them. Recently I have been feeling that there is alot of spiritual warfare going on(as much as I hate to admit it). Its very unsettling. And I tend to commit the sin of worrying:( So many many many things have made me realise the reality of the battle that isnt against flesh. If you ask me personally, i'll tell you what are the things. And so i got up to find out more about spiritual attacks and spiritual warfare. Its hard to be strong and courageous when your fear is clobbering your faith. Seeyue asked me fear of what. Fear of the unknown. Its not that i dont believe God can handle all these things, its just that I lose focus. But God never fails to reassure me. I studied Isaiah 5:1-7 yesterday and I felt like I'm just the keeper of God's vineyard. Isaiah 5:4(Jesus speaking) 'What more could have been done for my vineyard than i have done for it?'. God reminded me that sets everything for good but if we/i am not spirit-led or have that sensitivity to His voice admist everything that drowns it out, we produce bad fruit.
I delight in God because He gives me 2 verses my heart really needed..
Isaiah 54:17 " No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgement you shall condemn. This is the herritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord
2 Chro 16:9 " For the eyes of the Lord run to, and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him"
Admist all these, I have never felt I loved God more. I have never desired to bless His heart as much as I do now. I have never enjoyed His sweet presence as I have during this period..
But i was reminded once again how real this battle was once again, with shalyn jiap eve all not being able to go for cf installaton. It just came, so unexpected. It was climaxing this morning. My heart really couldnt take it. Plus I havent been feeling very well this weekend. On the way to fmc, my dad even lost his temper on the road and i just couldnt take it anymore.. I wanted to cry. I know i'm not strong at all:'( so i messaged my fav 2. But they dont really know what im going through because i havent got time to tell them. I hope you both see this:(
But guess what God still revealed to me 1 more thing during cf installation today. And that He is good. He is good. He is good. He is good. He is good. He is wonderfully good. wtv shit this world brings, He is just good. I tell you. He is so good. I just felt that so immensely today during worship. And I just praised Him in this trial and storm whatever you call it. I cant attempt to tell you how it feels like when God meets you during worship and you as much as life doesnt allow you to believe that God is in control, as the words of God and the promises of his word come forth, you cant help but believe and come in line with His eternal perspective. i <3 God.
and so kimmie's all time favourite
psm 37:4 "delight yourself in the Lord and He will grant you the desire of your heart"
I live by this psalm, because i dont know any other way to live in this world.
P.S. this will only be here for a limited time, because i dont like my thoughts not hidden away. its like part of me is ripped out and placed here for everyone and anyone.
