What concerns you also concerns God

It is such a pleasure to write to you again today. I do hope you had another great week and you are looking forward to a relaxing weekend. Were you able to memorize any of the promises of God for you and your family this week? Well if not let's shoot to start doing so this weekend.
  
 Do you have a child or children that you are concerned about. Perhaps they may have a chronic illness, or have been diagnosed with a type of cancer, or learning disability; maybe they are being bullied at school or themselves bullying other children. It could be that they are rebellious and challenge everything you tell them, perhaps you are concerned that they seem to have no friends or too many friends. Whatever the issue, if it is concerning to you then it is important. We talked last week that every promise that God has for you and your children are sealed with a yes and an amen. Is there a promise that would address our concerns about our children?
  
 Here is one that I do believe fits very well and it comes from Psalm 138:8. This scripture makes it very clear that the Lord will perfect that which concerns you.  The word perfect here means to mature or bring to completion . God will not leave you to flounder. What concerns you concerns Him as well. Phil 1:6 reassures us that if He has started any work with us He will see it through. All that you need to do is to tell God about your concern. Open your heart to Him, you can confide in Him, He will never repeat what you have told Him. You mean too much to Him. God will keep His promise you only need to believe it.

Activating God's Promises

I trust this was a great and productive week for you and I wish for you and your children an empowering weekend.
  
For this week I would like to focus our attention on activating the promises of God for us and our children. The bible is filled with promises for us and our children. I have not personally counted them but according to one source they are in excess of 3000. I am not going to get hung up on how many they are but can confidently say that they are numerous. It must ne noted that most of these promises do not have the actual word "promise" mentioned but uses other words which has the same meaning.

One of the first thing that we need to understand is that all of these promises are secured in Christ by an Amen- 2 Cor. 1:20 The only thing between these promises and there activation is us. We can start the activation process by simple believing that all these promises are indeed true. The next thing we need to do is to become familiar with what these promises are. It is senseless trying to access, what you don't know exist. We do this not just by what we hear people say but we can go through the bible for ourselves and find these promises. Identify at least one of these promises to meditate on daily and read what the requirements are to achieve it and follow them. Believe me when I say they will not be anything that you are not equipped to do. God does not wire us for failure but success.
  
  Let us practice Psalm 112:1-2    Blessed is the man that fear (reverence) the lord, and delight in obeying His commands.
 
So what does these verses say that I should do to be blessed? Reverence God and be happy in obeying Him.  Not only will I be blessed but it continues to say that my children will be successful everywhere they go and a whole generation will be blessed. All this from my having a reverential fear for God and an obedient heart. Go ahead get a jump start.

Cast Your Care Upon Him


I trust you had a great fourth of July, some good food, fun and relaxation. and you were able to perhaps enjoy at least some of the fireworks.

For this week I would like to leave you with these words of exhortation which comes from I Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Did you realize that Jesus cares as deeply for you as he did for his own  mother.  Unlike when left the care of His mother to John as He hung on the cross, He has taken on the responsibility to care for us personally. Jesus is aware of how concerned mothers are over their children, He understands our heart beat. After all He saw how concerned His own mother was when at the age of 12 years old their first trip out of town He was missing.

Jesus is also equally concerned about your children. Can you remember when He rebuked the disciples and told them to let the little children come to Him? What did He do?  He took them in His arms and blessed them.

Go ahead give Him your concerns and worries. Take your children to Him as He asks, He only wants to bless them and you as well.
