He will not let go

Friends,

We have all seen relationships fall apart. At times, we're dumbfounded, because the relationship seemed rock-solid - a godly man and a godly woman, seemingly devoted to one another, enduring through hardships. But even in those circumstances, we may be disappointed. But the LORD does not disappoint.

Isaiah 46:4 [NKJV]
Even to your old age, I am He,
And even to gray hairs I will carry you!
I have made, and I will bear;
Even I will carry, and will deliver you.

It is easy to be carried away by the emotions of a moment. Our challenge, brothers and sisters, is to remain focused, to purposefully remember that our God is faithful and everlasting. And His love and faithfulness is never-ending.

Be encouraged, Jose

Morning Joy

5 For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.
Psalm 30:5 (NKJV)


We all feel the heat, the pain and the season of endurance. Seasons that seem forever, seasons that seem like we are forsaken and abandoned. Yet we are not alone, because our Creator's hand is all over us. We only need to look up and see the end game scenario.

Never despise the lonely and abandoned seasons, keep your faith in the Lord steadfastly and Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6 NKJV)
These will keep you intact until the morning joy.

Be encouraged,

Afolabi
