Today Reminder (Seek) – 17 August 2017

A reminder for today
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. (Jude 1:24-25)

We are in the midst of a terrible update as I have told you before. We struggle to get all in place and the pressure is high on us delivering a perfect model for our customers. I find it hard at times to stay the course and sometimes I feel that I just need a break, but we have to carry on and see this through.
What is the hardest is how quick people are to see the bad and how slow they are to see the good and the blessings in their lives. We are almost genetically altered to focus on bad and terrible and miss good and nice. How often have you find it that people will remember the mistakes and wrongs you did despite the fact that your good outweighs your bad. People are inclined to get negative much easier than to remain positive about something. 

I am convinced that it is our faith that is weak and insufficient so that the little we have are trampled by the enemy and we accept his lies. You see the enemy wants to remove God from every situation so the moment things do not go your way you will rather listen to the lies of the enemy and get negative instead of remembering the almighty God that lives in you. 

I love this verse in Jude: Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.

The only one that we should concern us with is Jesus Christ. He is way and the truth and the life. He is the one that keeps us from falling and He is the one that makes us faultless. He is the giver and the redeemer. He is the creator and the game changer. He is the one that drives out negative thoughts and replaces them with righteous thoughts. He is the one that lead us and guides us and He is the one that will never leave you and never forsake you.

So, the answer to all negativity is simply Jesus Christ. In Him we have all we need and we will never fail, because when we bring Him into the equation it is for His glory and it is all about Him. Suddenly your whole perspective will change and your fears and worries will be replaced by peace, trust and faith.

Therefore, you have the opportunity to change all the negative minds around you by introducing Jesus as the way maker. 

Lord, we are so fortunate to have you in all that we do and to see you at work in our lives. Lead us through the last stages of this year and bless all that we do so that you will get all the glory for all that we do and that the world will see you are God and you alone. There is no one like you. In Jesus name.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers
