Things That God Has Prepared for Us



But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him” 1 Corinthians 2:9. 

God has a lot of things prepared for us. We become desperate when nothing significant happens in our lives. However, everything in the kingdom of God is received and attained by grace and faith. You also get the blessings of God by believing them. God is good and you have to trust Him. He is not stingy and He knows what you want before you even ask. Just stand in faith and you will get it.

Whom do you trust



Psalm 20:7-8: “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.”

People put their trust in various things, people, circumstances and etc. Christians trust in Jesus. Those that put their trust in material things and sinful people (it does not matter how powerful and influential these are) are finally disappointed and find that they are standing on a shaky foundation. On the other hand, those who trust in God stand on a firm foundation and get out of all their troubles stronger and happier. I do not mean to say you never feel bad or even discouraged for a while. Emotions have nothing to do with trust. You experience troubles, but you look at those from a different perspective. God is your protection. Circumstances and people cannot destroy you. Blessed be His holy name.

Bible verse of the day 8


Hi, today I want to continue talking about Abram and this time let us briefly look at Genesis 14:22-23:” 22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “With raised hand I have sworn an oath to the LORD, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, 23 that I will accept nothing belonging to you, not even a thread or the strap of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, ‘I made Abram rich. (NIV)’

Yesterday I mentioned that Abram was motivated by God and he did not follow the desires of his eyes like Lot did. In these two sentences we see that Abram fully trusted God for financial provision. He refused to take what rightfully belonged to him as a conqueror. He defeated those 4 kings and he could take all the spoil. And the king of Sodom freely gave it to him. Abram would not take it. Why? Because, God Almighty was His provider. 

This kind of trust in God won Abram the title of the father of all believers. Let us be like him. God bless you in putting your trust in God.
