MY FRIENDS, “I DON’T FEEL TIRED, I’VE COME TO FAR, GOD HAS NOT BROUGHT ME THIS FAR TO LEAVE ME”!!

As much as I try an inspire each of my readers to not look back, but to keep your focus at what lies ahead, I seem too always Calmwonder back myself to a time and place, where I had no relationship with God and sin abound on every level of my life.

My friends, this journey, I should be tired, worn out and ready to say I quit, because of the dedication and endurance it takes to finish and where Satan seems to forever triumph. “But I DON’T FEEL NO WAYS TIRED, I’ve come too far from where I started from.

Nobody told me that the road would be easy, but I DON’T BELIEVE HE BROUGHT ME THIS FAR TO LEAVE ME.” Because I’ve been friendless and ridiculed, but God has brought me, I’ve been scared and lonely, but God has brought me.

In addition, I’ve been through the Storm, rain, trials, tribulation and the ups and downs of  a life that I created with the help of the god of this world, but God has brought me.

And that is why I love God selfless and unconditionally, and today I GIVE HIM MY ALL, and I hope you will do the same. For our Savior imagestells us “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matt. 11:26 (NKJV)

So if the presence of God is forever apart of us how can we ever get tired of serving Christ. Today my friends, let’s focus on 1 Kings 18 and19 “Soon the Lord’s angel woke him again and said, “Get up and eat, or else you’ll get too tired to travel.”

So Elijah sat up and ate and drank. The food and water made him strong enough to walk forty more days. At last, he reached Mount Sinai, the mountain of God, and he spent the night there in a cave.

imagesBefore all of this happens, is the biblical account in 1 Kings 18,  where Elijah through the power of God stopped the rain for 3-1/2 years. On Mount Carmel brought down fire, when the Baal prophets could not. And then he kills the 450 Baal prophets on that same mountain.

Then through the power of God makes it rain. Then “Ahab the king, told his wife Jezebel what Elijah had done, so she sends a message to Elijah: “You killed my prophets. Now I’m going to kill you! I pray that the gods will punish me even more severely if I don’t do it by this time tomorrow.”

Elijah is terrified, even after what He has accomplished through Jehovah. So He runs, and this is the part of the story where we are now, he is being feed the food of heaven by the angels of God. Food with the power to sustain him on a 40 day journey on foot.

My friends when we allow the Spirit of God to feed us from the word of God we WANT FEEL NO WAYS TIRED on our Journey either, for God’s word “is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Heb. 4:12 (NKJV)

Consistent with this, once we allow the power of what God’s Word does through our faith, then like Elijah, we stand by our Elijahmountains as the strong winds, earthquakes, fire, rain and fear of our past, pass before us.

But then through our faith and endurance the gentle breeze of the Spirit of God tells us, “DON’T BE TIRED, WE NEVER TOLD YOU THAT THE ROAD WOULD BE EASY”, Because “narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life [eternal], and there are few who [will] find it.” Matt 7:13-14 (NKJV)

In addition, “WE DID NOT BRING YOU THIS FAR TO LEAVE YOU.” My friends “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord,….but share… in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, ”For He who has begun a good work in [His Children] will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” 2Tim. 1:7-8, Phil. 1:6 (NKJV)

 

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
