A true sense of security comes only from knowing that we are loved with a love that can never end, that God cares about, even the smallest details of our lives. When we are persuaded that nothing that happens can harm us, the torment of fear is overcome!

My heart was filled with so much joy yesterday at the Church, when we got singing the hymns. I was particularly strengthened by this stanza:

“He will guard my soul, and leave me never;
From His love no power on earth shall severe;
And I know He’ll keep me now and ever
In the hollow of His hand!”

Nothing can separate us from Christ’s enormous love for us.
Not circumstances. Not temptations.
Not angels. Not demons. Not death. Not even all the powers of hell!

If there’s one thing in all the earth worth believing, it is the intensity and eternity of God’s unconditional love for us. God’s boundless love makes all the difference.

Our joy doesn’t come from the fact that there will be no troubles. No, for there will always be troubles!
Our deep sense of joy comes from knowing that we are not alone, that we have help right there in the midst of the the troubles. God is our present help. When? In times of trouble!
Listen to what He says:
“If you’ll hold unto me for dear life,” says GOD, “I’ll get you out of trouble. I’ll give you the best care if you’ll only get to know and trust me. Call me and I’ll answer, be at your side in bad times; I’ll rescue you, then throw you a party.
I’ll give you a long life, give you a long drink of salvation!”
(Psalm 91:14-16, MSG)

Again, God says to you,
“…Do not fear…
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.”
(Isaiah 43:1-2, NIV)

We conquer fear when we are convinced that God’s love will never fail us, that His love won’t quit on us in the middle of troubles. And that He will keep us from being harmed; give us the best care; and get us out of any trouble. When we come to know and really believe that God is with us – that we are not alone – we are no longer afraid, no matter what we come up against.

Knowing that God isn’t against us, but for us, and that He isn’t angry with us, but takes a peculiar delight in us, is key to daily victory over fear.
Apostle John the beloved stated this truth in his epistle.
“We need have no fear of someone who loves us perfectly; his perfect love for us eliminates all dread of what he might do to us. If we are afraid, it is for fear of what he might do to us, and shows that we are not fully convinced that he really loves us.”
(1John 4:18, TLB)

The intensity of our fear reveals just how much we are yet to come to grips with the fact of God’s unconditional, unfailing and unending love for us.

Our greatest challenge is not the circumstances that surround us, but our inability to believe that God really loves us – enough to keep us unharmed!

It’s my prayer that you will come to really believe the intensity and the faithfulness of God’s love for you. Then His perfect love will stump out fear, and cause your troubled heart to be at peace. In Jesus Name.

With much love,

We are still looking at the fact that God loves you and has made provision for your healing in the death of His Son Jesus Christ.

Today, we will start from where we’d left off yesterday. If God loves me, then why am I not healed in my body?
To answer that, let’s remind ourselves what we said yesterday: in the sight of God, you are already healed.

Your healing has been paid for by Christ. It’s all yours to enjoy. However, what we have given to us by grace, we must receive by our personal faith. Faith in Christ’s sacrificial death. Faith in our healing in Him.

The Spirit of God through apostle Paul tells us in Ephesians 2:8 that,
“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God.”

What God has given to us by His grace, we take a hold of it by our faith. By our faith, we reach out and grasp our healing, which has been paid for in full by Christ’s grace.

Faith is a personal responsibility. You can grow your own faith by taking time to labor in the Word of God. Spend time meditating on healing Scriptures, and God’s love for you. I have discovered that, faith for anything else, becomes a lot easier, when our focus is on God’s boundless and and unconditional love. When we know just how greatly God loves us, it becomes easier trusting Him for our healing and every other thing.

God loves you and dearly prizes you. And has provided for your healing. So reach out in faith and receive it, that Christ may be glorified in your body.

I remembered a long time ago, when I took ill with fever. I was shaking all over and my body was really hot. This continued for three days. So on Sunday, after everyone had left for church, I decided to watch Mel Gibson’s Passion of the Christ. For no obvious reason, I decided to play the second disc instead of the first. And the first thing I saw was the scene where Christ’s flesh was been torn by the Roman whip. Something powerful jerked inside of me. I got up from where I was sitting, and with such fury, I told myself that if Christ went through all that for me, then I had no reason being held down by fever. My faith rose up. And that was it, the fever left me.

It’s my prayer that you will have your focus on Christ’s unfathomable love for you and the healing He has made available for you through His death.
