Everything we need is accomplished; let us walk in victory
A person finds joy in giving an apt reply— and how good is a timely word! Proverbs 15:23
I prayed to God and spoke aloud that I wanted to BE FREE in 2023. Each day I am REminded that our ways are not His ways. My thought process was speaking this, and by 2023, I could wipe my hands of things. Now, REalistically, I knew this was not the case. However, I can say, that I BEgan to see our Father answering my prayers. There were things that I prayed for REsolution that He clearly answered, and just yesterday He showed me that just BEcause 2023 is here, He’s still heard my cry.
Today’s message is titled “Timely Word”. Part of the devotional said, “An appropriate word given at the right time is very benefical both for the giver and the receiver. To obtain the sort of wisdom this requires does not come in a sudden burst of insight, but rather from quietly listening to God…. In meekness, we should hold back our own words and ask God what he would like to tell others through us.“ Yesterday I REceived a very unexpected call, and after the conversation, like today’s message, I knew my BEing still and knowing He is God, and years of prayer and meditation, God gave me a lot of answers through one of His children. There was so much I could have said and wanted to say, but REmaining meek and quiet allowed me to hear God’s REsponses me in the most unexpected way and to REceive the confirmation He had for me. As we walk in 2023, let us REmember that silence is a key. Know also meekness is not weakness and is one of the BEst ways to show strength, courage, wisdom, and maturity.
Matthew 22
As we walk each day, let us REmember the greatest commandment as spoken by the Father in Matthew 22:37-39, “Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Reflection from Hello Beautiful by Kara Barker
Kara barker REminds us in her last message “We Have The Victory”. She says, “The last words Jesus spoke before dying on the cross apply just as much now as they did then: ‘It is finished.’” She goes on to say, “This declaration means that our healing, deliverance, prosperity, victory, joy, peace and everything else we need in life is already finished and ready for us to claim. ‘Finished’ is the word we use after a job is done. It is a word that says we don't need to work anymore because it is done. In other words, "It is accomplished!" As we move forward in life and face challenges and seek our breakthrough through, let us know it is already done; it is accomplished. However as the Bible says, faith without works is dead. We must do the work, BEloved. We have to go T.H.R.O.U.G.H. (Trials, Hurt, Regrets, Obstacles, Uncertainty, Guilt, Heartbreak) for our breakthrough, but knowing what we seek is already done BEcause of the Son.
1 John 4:9
Let us not take for granted each day, for we live today as a REsult of our Father sending His precious babe.
Everything we need is accomplished; let us walk in victory, my friend.
