It is the content of your heart that determines where your life is heading! II

Greetings to you, dear friends! I am happy for the opportunity to share with you the pearls of wisdom from God’s Word.

God told Joshua:

«This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success» (Joshua, 1:8).

Twelve spies from the nation of Israel went to explore Promised Land, and afterwards ten of them said that it was impossible to conquer it and only two of them were convinced that it would be their land. The ten were led by visible circumstances that are why their position was negative: „We won’t be able to do it. We won’t succeed, because we are small and weak, not like the inhabitants of the land.” They looked at the external hindrances because they thought that their destiny depended on and was determined by the surroundings. But the other two of them – Joshua and Caleb – knew what you and I know today, – that our destiny is not determined by the surroundings; it is determined by the condition of our hearts. Joshua and Caleb said quite the opposite: «We are able, because God is with us; thus nothing will stand against us!» Those were not empty words; they were spoken with confidence, because these men kept God’s Word in their hearts. We have to realize that in order for some things to flow out of your heart, you need to store some things there.

The Word of God that you keep in your heart will save you! In hard times, when people rise against you with slander and when all the circumstances seem to be against you, only the Word of God that you have in your heart will save you. That is why we say that God’s Word is our support system. It is like a bearing wall in a building. If you take it down, the building will collapse. A bearing wall carries the weight.

If we keep God’s Word in our hearts, it will be a support system in our lives.

We will continue tomorrow!

May God protect you!

  • Jesus as the example of a true minister

    We see that Jesus experienced serious difficulties in the days of His earthly life, but He did not focus on them. Jesus was busy serving the Father and those He was sent to serve. While Jesus served people, the Father made sure people ministered to Jesus; God met Jesus’ needs through His ministry.When we serve others, God motivates others to serve us. We always reap what we have sown. We do not serve people because we do not have any problems, – we serve people because it pleases God. And when we serve, despite the fact that we have problems, needs and concerns, God makes sure some people that we do not even know serve us by meeting our needs

  • Our highest calling – to reveal God in our flesh

    The Bible says: «For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him» (John, 1:17-18).The law can never save people because the law only reveals the sinful nature of man. The law was given in order for people to realize their need for God and His help. It was Jesus who brought to us the truth and the grace that conveys spiritual power necessary to live in accordance with God’s will. Anyone who will accept this truth and grace will have the power to live a holy life and become an instrument in God’s hand that is able to manifest or declare God’s truth and grace to other people.

    We have been talking about the fact that we can plan together with God and partner with Him to construct a great future. We established also that great future does not happen automatically.We are believers, but that does not mean that we do not have to think about the future. We should not be careless about our future even though we believe that our future is in the hand of God. God has given us a mind and He wants us to move forward and create a wonderful future for ourselves. A person who does not care about his future usually turns to be a failure. It is very important to plan for the future and to envision it.

    We all follow up our dream. It is built within us to pursue our dreams and do all we can to fulfill them. When we dream we awaken a desire within us that leads us to have the drive, passion and ambition to accomplish our dream.
