Bible Verse of The Day – 5-5-18

Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NKJV) 7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. 8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.

These are beautiful words of wisdom, promise and knowledge!

Who will be blessed? The man who puts His trust and hope in the Lord, not in material things, not in financial riches, and not in big success.

This is the man that will be blessed. He will be blessed in all areas of his life! He will be blessed in his schooling, his home, his work, his family, his health, and his relationships.

Why? Because he has settled in his heart to give his all to God. He holds nothing from Him.

If God is touching our heart right now and asking us to give something very personal to Him, will we do it? Will we give to Him that particular thing that we hold dear to our hearts? Or are we going to say, “NO, Not now God. We need it for our security. It’s really nothing anyways”.

If we cannot let it go, then it’s more than NOTHING to us.

Let’s not put our trust in anything other than the Lord, that we too may continue to walk in His blessings every day. Amen.
