UPHELD BY OUR FAITH!

 

UPHELD BY OUR FAITH!

 

EVERY DAY

Our world faces challenges

Our country faces challenges

 

AND WE face many

Personal struggles and challenges

In our life

 

ALL we can do

Is PRAY=pray that we

Will be UPHELD BY GOD=

And our own PERSONAL FAITH!

 

BELIEVE in God the Holy Father

And Christ Jesus=

UPHELD IN OUR FAITH!

 

“…….the angel of the Lord

Appeared to Gideon=and said

 

‘The Lord is WITH YOU

O champion!’

 

Gideon said to him

‘My Lord=

IF the Lord is with us

WHY has all this happened?’”                                                                                               Judges 6:12

 

And don’t you FEEL like Gideon

WHY DO WE

 

Have to deal with Covid?

WHY do we have

Racial strife?  And why do we

Have this political DIVIDE?

 

Why do we have

These PERSONAL health-

Finance-and relationship problems?

HOW can we go on

Despite it all?

 

UPHELP BY OUR FAITH!

Strengthened by our God

 

“For the eyes

Of the Lord

 

Range throughout the earth

To STRENGTHEN-those

Whose hearts

Are fully committed to him”                                                                                            2 Chronicles 16:9

 

“My soul is weary

With sorrow=

STRENGTHEN ME

According to your word”                                                                                              Psalm 119:28

 

“So do not fear=

For I am with you

 

Do not=be dismayed

For I am your God

 

I will STRENGTHEN YOU

And hold you=

I will UPHOLD YOU

With my righteous hand”                                                                                       Isaiah 41:10

UPHELD BY OUR FAITH!

 

We know ANTHING

Can happen=in this

Crazy mixed-up world

That we live in

 

We know that OUR LIVES

Are NOT going to be

A bed or roses

 

I imagine that is

What the ANGEL

Was telling Gideon

When he=his family

And Israel

Were IN a very tough spot

 

In the end=GOD UPHELD Gideon

Jesus ROSE in the end

We will be acquitted too

 

We will be upheld=

UPHELD BY OUR FAITH!

Strengthened by our faith

 

“I pray that

Out of his glorious riches=

He me STRENGTHEN YOU

With power

 

Through his Spirit

In your inner being”                                                                                                   Ephesians 3:16

 

We believe in God

We believe in Jesus

ALL THINGS are possible

 

God will give us FAITH=

The Holy Spirit=and UPHOLD US

In our times of need

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name of our ever STRENGTHENING Holy Father!
