You Will Survive

Comments: As we close the year 2010, let's remind ourselves that we belong to the Lord. Sometimes (and for some, many times) life and events can be so overwhelming and our faith wavers when we don't see God come through for us. However, we need to always wait for the fullness of time in that God will perform and deliver what He says He will. God is God. Will you take His Word for it?

Blessed New Year 2011. There is hope. We will yet survive because our God, the Mighty One is with us.


YOU WILL SURVIVE, by David Wilkerson Today


Happiness does not mean living without pain or hurt—not at all. True
happiness is learning how to live one day at a time, in spite of sorrow and
pain. It is learning how to rejoice in the Lord, no matter what has happened in
the past.

You may feel rejected and abandoned. Your faith may be weak and you think you
are down for the count. Sorrow, tears, pain, and emptiness may swallow you up
at times, but God is still on the throne. He is still God!

Convince yourself that you will survive. You will come out of it and, live or
die, you belong to the Lord. Life does go on and it will surprise you how much
you can bear with God’s help.

You cannot help yourself or stop the pain, but our blessed Lord will come to
you. He will place his loving hand under you and lift you up to sit again in
heavenly places. He will deliver you from the fear of dying and he will reveal
his endless love for you.

Look up! Encourage yourself in the Lord. When the fog surrounds you and you
can’t see any way out of your dilemma, lie back in the arms of Jesus and
simply trust him. He has to do it all! He wants your faith and your confidence.
He wants you to cry aloud, “Jesus loves me! He is with me! He will not fail
me! He is working it all out, right now! I will not be cast down! I will not be
defeated! I will not be a victim of Satan! I will not lose my mind or my
direction. God is on my side! I love him and he loves me!”

The bottom line is faith. And faith rests on this one absolute: “No weapon
that is formed against thee shall prosper…” (Isaiah 54:17).
