Continue to receive from the Lord, all things that are profitable to your soul (1Cor.6:12). But, even though they may be permissible you must have discernment to know they are not profitable.
As for me and my family, my prayer will always be for the Lord to expose any fear in me (Eph.5:11) and to give me the discernment of spirits (1Cor.12:10) to know all affects of any evil that would or could manipulate my mind, will, or emotions (2Cor.4:4). I must continue to be on the look out against the devil who roams like a lion seeking to devour me (1Pet.5:8). At the same time, I must acknowledge Christ who is the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last (Rev. 21:6; 22:3), of whom without I would have no life to live nor air to breathe (Acts 17:28).

"The road of the cross is not always an easy one, but it is sweeter than the alternative.
During the hardest moments in life, the sweetest of sanctuaries is found in Him. The rewards are not obvious to observers, but they are unmistakable to the gladiators in the midst of raging battle.
God's ways are so much higher than our ways and allowing my fears to crumble in His mighty hands was the best thing I ever did - ALL things work together for the good of those who love the Lord."
- Pastor Shen Xiaoming (China and End Time Prophecy)

"I will place over them one shepherd, my servant David, and He will tend them; He will tend them and be their shepherd." (Ezekiel 34:23)

[Psalms 16:8, NLT] I know the LORD is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.

[시16:8] 내가 여호와를 항상 내 앞에 모심이여 그가 나의 오른쪽에 계시므로 내가 흔들리지 아니하리로다

“So don’t worry away with your...

“What will we eat?”

“What will we drink?”

“What will we wear?”

“Don’t worry about tomorrow.”
(Matthew 6:31-34)

Are there any commandments as straightforward as these that we so regularly flaunt?

Jesus offers us rest.
Thank you, Jesus. I receive Your rest.

this thought just popped into my head

when I was walking up a steep hill one day, someone told me to stop looking up. because it can be quite psychologically demotivating to see how much further you have to go

and i'm sure that is a very sensible thing while walking up a hill

but there are two issues with that as a Christian

if we look at our feet, we won't know where we're going.

or, to put that one another way - and far more importantly - we won't see WHO we're going towards

because Christianity isn't just a journey to a destination

it's a journey to a person; to a 'Him'

also, if we only ever look down at our feet, we won't be enjoying the journey we are on

just a mini thought that popped into my head which i thought i'd share with my DingDash family

let's look up to our guide, who already know the twists and turns of the journey ahead

Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
You will revive me;
You will stretch out Your hand
Against the wrath of my enemies,
And Your right hand
will save me.

Psalms 138:7 NKJV

@Antonio, dear brother, you and the many believers around you are seen and known by our Savior. You are not alone or trekking through these valleys without His knowledge and tender love toward you. Thankyou for your encouragement to us here in the US, through your zealous love for Jesus and the furthering of His kingdom. Satan knows his time is short; be strong in the Lord and in the power of His Spirit who is mightily at work in you! Praying from Pennsylvania, USA.

@sinbach it's certainly very easy to go for the comfy option

it's all too east to place our reliance on unbiblical approaches like 'use your common sense'

because while God gives us minds to think through problems. He also desires us to 'trust and obey' and our own thinking can get in the way of that all too easily

the narrow path is dangerous, yet exciting...do we want danger? Or comfort?

ouch.
OK God. OK....
