DECLARATIONS ON GOD'S LOVING PERSPECTIVE OF US!

Looking back, we see how difficult of a year 2020 was, and looking forward into 2021, we have HIGH HOPES for a BETTER FUTURE.

But for most of us, it's safe to say that for RIGHT NOW, the situation is still VERY DIFFICULT, and might even have gotten HARDER, with so many challenges involving family, work and all the miss-information about everything from politics to healthcare!

Regardless of these difficult circumstances that seem to flood our minds and emotions, threatening to blind our vision, and trying to paralyze us with fears, we need to remember who GOD is, and who we are, IN Him!! ☝

We need to take our eyes off of the storm, and keep our eyes fixed upon YESHUA, the author and perfecter of our faith!

How can we practically do that, in our day to day lives?

As it says in Hebrews 12:2 TLV

"FOCUSING on YESHUA, the INITIATOR and PERFECTER of FAITH. For the JOY set before HIM, HE ENDURED the cross, DISREGARDING its shame; and HE has taken HIS SEAT at the RIGHT HAND of the THRONE of GOD."

Therefore, regardless of how hopeless the situation may seem all around us, we need to first of all remember that YESHUA endured so much more than any one of us will ever endure on this earth. And, secondly, He is still seated on the Throne, at the right hand of the Father - He is still in control!!

Even though the world around us may be falling apart, and those currently with worldly power seem to be the ones in control, we need to take hold of the truth written in GOD's Word, clinging to it by faith, and not by sight! (2 Corinthians 5:7)

Pray for the LORD to give you the spiritual clarity you need, and the gift of faith to believe His Word, and what it says, no matter how contrary the world around us may be looking like right now!

HalleluYah!! 🙌🙌🙌 Great, now that we have established WHO GOD is, we also need to REMEMBER WHO WE ARE, IN MESSIAH YESHUA!

As it is written in Galations 2:20 TLV:

"And it is NO LONGER I who live, but MESSIAH LIVES IN ME. And the life I NOW LIVE in the body, I live by TRUSTING in BEN-ELOHIM (SON of GOD) —WHO LOVED me and GAVE HIMSELF UP for me."

This means we need to live in such a way where we can entrust every area of our lives to YESHUA, because He bought us with His precious blood!

This means that this life is not ours, but His! And because of this, the responsibility of provision now falls on HIM - He is responsible for us! And this is then why He gives us so many wonderful promises of provision, where we can put our faith into action, by surrendering control of our lives to Him. Completely trusting in Him to provide for us, all that we need!

It takes LETTING GO of control, and LAYING ALL of our concerns, worries, anxieties, fears, hopes and dreams of the future, etc... at the FOOT OF THE CROSS.

This is the point where we DIE TO OURSELVES, and the old nature is BURIED WITH MESSIAH YESHUA. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 5:17 TLV:

"Therefore if anyone is IN MESSIAH, he is a NEW CREATION. The OLD things have PASSED AWAY; behold, ALL THINGS have become NEW."

And we take hold of the new creation we are, in MESSIAH YESHUA! We do this by declaring these promises over ourselves, in prayer by FAITH!

And this is why it's so important for us to familiarize ourselves with, and memorize the Word of GOD, because it keeps us grounded in the TRUTH - the only Truth we can really trust in these days!

It's also GOD'S LOVE LETTER ❤📖 to us! It's the story of GOD'S HEART for HIS CHILDREN!
