Our God really cares about what’s going on in the world and in our lives today. The circumstances we face have harden our hearts and consequently keep us from understanding exactly how deep God love to humanity really is. God knows all about what is happening and He promised to make it all right one day. You and I have the assurance that trouble will not last always. We should rejoive. Our God reigns and He cares. You and I must remember that we are in this world but we are not of this world. . we're going to have the opportunity to be raised from the and it should give us joy and confidence. confidence. we do have the promise of better days ahead. We have to set our eyes on the greater reward: Eternity with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

My friend no matter what you are facing today, don't you be discouraged. Our God reigns and He is able to do far better things than we can imagine. He is able and willing to exceed our expectations. We hope for better financial situation. We hope for a better job. We hope for better health, better protection for our children, caring and god-fearing government, those are great hopes and our Father is able to provide it all, but is the hope of the resurrection that should thrill us. it is the assurance that we're going to rise from the grave, and we're going to stand in the kingdom of God along with Jesus Christ that we should focus on.

Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]--Ephesians 3:20

Praise the Lord!

Psalm 7


Psalm 7

1 LORD my God, I take refuge in you;
save and deliver me from all who pursue me,
2 or they will tear me apart like a lion
and rip me to pieces with no one to rescue me.

3 LORD my God, if I have done this
and there is guilt on my hands—
4 if I have repaid my ally with evil
or without cause have robbed my foe—
5 then let my enemy pursue and overtake me;
let him trample my life to the ground
and make me sleep in the dust.[c]

6 Arise, LORD, in your anger;
rise up against the rage of my enemies.
Awake, my God; decree justice.
7 Let the assembled peoples gather around you,
while you sit enthroned over them on high.
8 Let the LORD judge the peoples.
Vindicate me, LORD, according to my righteousness,
according to my integrity, O Most High.
9 Bring to an end the violence of the wicked
and make the righteous secure—
you, the righteous God
who probes minds and hearts.

10 My shield[d] is God Most High,
who saves the upright in heart.
11 God is a righteous judge,
a God who displays his wrath every day.
12 If he does not relent,
he[e] will sharpen his sword;
he will bend and string his bow.
13 He has prepared his deadly weapons;
he makes ready his flaming arrows.

14 Whoever is pregnant with evil
conceives trouble and gives birth to disillusionment.
15 Whoever digs a hole and scoops it out
falls into the pit they have made.
16 The trouble they cause recoils on them;
their violence comes down on their own heads.

17 I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness;
I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.

Praise the Lord!
