God loves you. And He knows what to do. Trust Him. Today. So what are you facing today? Whatever it may be, look up and seek His face. He still loves you. He knows what to do. And nothing is impossible for Him. Corrie ten Boom, a heroic survivor of a N**i concentration camp, knew this from experience as she trusted Jesus no matter what happened. She said, "The wonderful thing about praying is that you leave a world of not being able to do something, and enter God's realm where everything is possible."

In our time on earth, things can appear totally different to us human beings. But God knows everything. And He provides. Yes, He provides! Most of all, He provides us believers with His indwelling presence.

When we know Jesus, we know security. So, if you feel discouraged, remember this: Even if the facts of a challenge are, indeed, accurate, God's Word never loses accuracy. He is with you. He is for you. He is victorious! Let's trust Jesus together today. Amen?

And remember "...the darkness is passing away and the true light is already shining" (I John 2:9, ESV).

Devotional Preview:
When feeling totally overwhelmed, take it as an opportunity for complete surrender to our loving Lord. Give it ALL to Him who literally gave all. Our Lord Jesus is waiting for you to say a 100% yes to Him. Today. Right now. Complete surrender starts complete victory in Christ. "Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah" (Ps. 62:8).
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Is. 55:8-9).

For everyone who knows Him as Savior and Lord, the best happily ever after is guaranteed eternal reality! And because of Him, you can experience the deepest love of God on Valentine's Day and everyday: "Surely goodness and mercy and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, And I shall dwell forever [throughout all my days] in the house and in the presence of the Lord " (Psalm 23:6, AMP).

Life on earth can be full of pits. You can feel like you can't get out of certain situations. You try to get out of a slimy pit, and you just can't get any traction. You hit a wall and fall again. The darkness encroaches you. People nearby may mock you. And you wonder if you'll ever make progress and feel victorious and free again. Good news: Through Christ, you can get out of the pit! Cry out to God and listen for the sound of the rescuer. Like a rescue helicopter, He will come to you and draw you up and out of the impossible pit! He will give you grace to get through it. He will be with you in it. He will empower you to survive and thrive in Him! And He will use you to show others how to emerge victorious in Him as they see His faithfulness in your life. Internalize God's eternal Word. Here's an excerpt from Psalm 40 (Amplified Version):
"I waited patiently and expectantly for the Lord; and He inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up out of a horrible pit [a pit of tumult and of destruction], out of the miry clay (froth and slime), and set my feet upon a rock, steadying my steps and establishing my goings. And He has put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God." Yes, like the psalmist, let us cry out to the Lord. Repent of relying on our own strength. Cast our cares on Him. And wait in His presence as we listen to His songs of deliverance.

Excerpt: Believe God. Believe Christ! And don't let your heart be troubled, as He said in John 14:1-3 (KJV): "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also" (John 14:1-3, KJV).

Let Jesus make Himself at home in your heart. Trust Him today and remember that, as you follow Him, He is preparing the way and your home -your mansion!- in Heaven.

Devotional: Trade Worry for Worship
"O magnify the Lord with me,
And let us lift up His name together" (Psalm 34:3).

Excerpt: God knows how our brains function. He made them! As someone getting her doctorate in psychology (from a Christian perspective), I know that the brain cannot just stop thinking about something without starting to think about something else. Little wonder the Lord wants us to stop worrying and start giving thanks with trust in Him instead. He always wants what is ultimately best for us.

Replace worry with worship. Worry magnifies problems and human beings' weaknesses. Worship magnifies God and His incomparable character traits! Don't wait to "feel" like praising God or giving thanks. Choose to worship and praise the King of kings. Let's heed Hebrews 12:2 (AMP): "[looking away from all that will distract us and] focusing our eyes on Jesus, who is the Author and Perfecter of faith [the first incentive for our belief and the One who brings our faith to maturity], who for the joy [of accomplishing the goal] set before Him endured the cross, disregarding the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God [revealing His deity, His authority, and the completion of His work]."

Fact: Only God's Word remains unchanging and ever-lovingly true. Yes, God's Word remains the final word. How He describes us should define us: Only our Creator deserves and reserves the rights to define you. Only in Christ can we experience true security. When we repent from sin and accept Jesus Christ as personal Savior and Lord, we experience complete transformation as God's fully adopted children and (wait for it!) co-heirs with God's Son Himself! It can't get any better than that, my friends. Amen?

This literally Rock-solid truth never fades. Only our focus blurs if we start to look around instead of gazing upward at our Lord Jesus Christ. God's love exceeds our highest comprehension! The cross puts that point across.

Accept God's acceptance of you as a new creation in Christ. Derive your identity and security from Christ Himself. Ignore cultural shifts. No substitute exists for prayer. Keep praying and resolutely looking up to Jesus, my friends.

Take God's Word to heart: "[He has also appropriated and acknowledged us as His by] putting His seal upon us and giving us His [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as the security deposit and guarantee [of the fulfillment of His promise]" (2 Corinthians 1:22).

Into our emotional fog and overall darkness, God beams His clarifying light. Embrace the truth. John 3:16 remains reality. Trust our Lord Jesus Christ 100% and take His Word to heart, my family members in Christ: "...for He has said, “I will never [under any circumstances] desert you [nor give you up nor leave you without support, nor will I in any degree leave you helpless], nor will I forsake or let you down or relax My hold on you [assuredly not]!'(Hebrews 13:5, AMP)."

You see, Jesus Christ never forsakes His own. He never abdicates His throne. He reigns! He holds us. He indwells us who know Him as Savior and Lord. He always loves us. He's with us!

Immanuel means "God with us" -not just at Christmastime. The tomb is empty not just near Easter. He remains good. He remains God!

Today, my friends, take a look again at our focus verse: "And lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20).

He is with you. He is with me. Hallelujah! Now tell your friends. Love them with His love. And look up! The Son still shines.

Sometimes, feelings paint false pictures of the future. Don't base your life on feelings. Enjoy the stability of totally relying on the facts found in God's Word. You are so loved by God. Your life is about far more than
what you see right now. Trust Him: God IS working!
And His plans for you are good.

We're almost to 2025. Are you feeling energized or immobilized? Let's have a Christian pep talk.

Focus on Whom you know: The importance of deriving our identity from God and not other people cannot be overemphasized in our image-focused world. When we know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, we know we are God's very own children and heirs to His kingdom, which cannot be shaken! We know He works all things together for good for us who know Him! And NOTHING from the past year or the next can stop His love and ultimate-best eternal plan for us. Anxiety melts away in the warmth of His love. Go ahead and throw down every worry, every care at His feet. Go ahead and mourn when needed while knowing He cares and comforts like no other. Go ahead and trust Him, knowing He goes ahead of you.

At Christmastime, many encounter the "impossible" hurtful people in their lives at work, church or at family gatherings. Moreover, it can feel impossible to pray for them to come to know the Lord or grow in Him. Think about this: At one time, the Apostle Paul was one of the most "impossible" people ever.

Prior to his conversion, the Apostle Paul sadistically killed Christians. If he had any Christian relatives, I'm sure it looked almost impossible to them for him to repent and receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. But he did.

Friends, let's not look at the "impossible" people as beyond God's reach. Let's ask God for His perspective and keep on praying for hardened hearts to be softened and spiritually blind eyes to see the Light and receive Christ, who miraculously transforms us in to new creations who love Him and love others with His love. Instead, let's repent of not believing that our awesome God can draw them to Himself.

God knows it's for the ultimate good for us to do things His way, and that includes praying for the "impossible people": "...Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you..." (Matthew 5:44). So let's make an "impossible" Christmas prayer list.

Excerpt of devotional: Like Joseph, choose to believe God. Replace worry with worship. And remember that, even on the wildest journeys of our lives, God never misleads you. Trust Him. "Seek and deeply long for the Lord and His strength [His power, His might]; Seek and deeply long for His face and His presence continually" (Psalm 105:4, AMP).

Like Joseph, welcome Jesus regardless of any outward conditions or inward worries. Determine today to seek "His face continually..." (See I Chronicles 16:11.) Amen?
