Genesis 30: 1-31:16
Matthew 10:1-23
Psalm 12:1-8
Proverbs 3:13-15
"Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding, for she is far more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. She is far more precious than rubies nothing you desire can compare with her."
This verse I feel is the foundation for today's blog. Living for God in a deceitful world can be lonely., but know we are never alone in our battle against evil. When we feel alone I pray we may seek other believers for strength and support.
I pray we go to the lost and spread the word, that Jesus will give us the words and opportunities, we must just listen. Jesus prepared the disciples for persecution. God chose them to spread the word about him. The bible teaches us that Gods message of salvation is for ALL people. We may face hostility like the disciples but we must find a balance between wisdom and vulnerability to accomplish Gods work.
Living for God often brings on persecution, but with it comes opportunity to tell the good news of salvation. So weather we are lonely or asking for something we trust in God when nothing seems to happen even if it's difficult as it may be harder to live with the consequences if we take matters into our own hands. Resist the temptation to think that God has forgotten you, have the patience and courage to wait for God to act.
I pray we continue to be in constant prayer, that we read the word to increase our wisdom so that we ourselves can prepare for those opportunities that may arise,
Amen
