Jesus took it all...

Thank you Father that we don't have to rely on our strength to overcome the opposition we face daily, to turn around impossibles we see or rely on our hope in hopeless situations...because Jesus has already overcome this world & every impossible in it-His hope anchors us when this world depletes us (Jn 16:33, Heb 6:19)! No devil in hell can steal, kill or destroy what Jesus died to give us...unless we release it to him (Jn 10:10). God's given us the authority over the enemy; this is a truth, not a feeling-so we must appropriate what we know...not what we feel (Lk 9:1). We do not have the power to change others, but the Holy Spirit does. Our power is in our privilege of prayer-we can partner with our Father, the Creator of everything we see & don't see & agree with His promises to come to pass (1 Thes, Col 1:17). 

We must ask God daily to help us believe when the path ahead is dismal & dark-knowing His Word is a lamp to our feet & a light to our path (Ps 119:105). What He calls us to do-He will equip us to do (2 Cor 12:9). We have to rest in His daily provisions... seriously like what other choices do we have? Jesus took it all...regrets of the past, fears in the present & every unknown we will face in the future-our confidence is in Him. Every time we come to the end of His strength-we can be confident of the endless supply of our Savior's strength; He will do exceedingly, abundantly more than we could do or imagine (Eph3:20); we must allow His strength to have full reign in us, by having faith...constantly (Mk 11:22). Will you let our Father love & care for you like He wants to so you can live the life He's purposed for you? 10/19/13LMM #jesustookitall #christianinsightforlife www.facebook.com/christianinsightforlife
