The Daily – Rise UP!

I cannot get my mind off of the Scripture I gave as a memory verse in our last lesson. I find it so profound…

“I have carried you since you were born; I have taken care of you from your birth. Even when you are old, I will be the same. Even when your hair has turned gray, I will take care of you. I will sustain you and I will rescue you.” – Isaiah 46:3-4

I am amazed! He Carries, Saves and Rescues Too??

As if loving us and sending His Son was not enough. He tells us, His beloved children, that He has and will carry us! He has and will SAVE us! He has and will sustain & rescue us!

WHOO HOO!

What an awesome, mighty, loving, wonderful and amazing God we have! His love has no bounds. His grace is never ending. His arms are ever ready!

Whom have you to fear or dread??

For God knew His people in advance, and He chose them to become like his Son, so that His Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.

And having chosen them, He called them to come to Him. And having called them, He gave them right standing with Himself. And having given them right standing, He gave them his glory.

What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us?

Since He did not spare even His own Son but gave Him up for us all, won’t He also give us everything else?

Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for His own? No one—for God Himself has given us right standing with Himself. – Romans 8:29-33 (NLT)

Rise up dear sisters, and gain confidence in knowing that the Creator of the Universe is CARRYING you!!! You WILL have victory. You WILL make it through your dark situation. You CAN make it.

Our God WILL sustain you!

Do you not know Him???

He is Abba, the Great I Am, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, Provider, Savior, Great Physician, El-Olam – The Everlasting God, Holy, Rewarder, All Powerful, Ever Present, All Knowing, Love, Shepherd, the Living God, Prince of Peace, Sanctifier, our Banner, Creator, Father, Mighty God, Friend who sticks closer than a brother and Lover of your soul!

If that does not fire up your soul, I do not know what will! OUR GOD, Who IS ALL I just said and MUCH more is carrying you through your storms. He is walking WITH you. He loves you and will not let you slip from His hands!

For I am persuaded beyond doubt that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:38-39 (amplified)

Stop wallowing and complaining. Depression has no place in you.

Do you not know who you are??

You are above and not beneath, the head and not the tail.

NO weapon formed against you shall prosper!

You are MORE than a conqueror!

We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed

perplexed, but not in despair;

persecuted, but not abandoned;

struck down, but not destroyed.

You are the APPLE of your Daddy God’s eye!

YOU, my dear, are a daughter of the Most High!

Nothing, nothing, I repeat NOTHING can ever change that!

Believe it.

Take hold of it.

Own it!

It IS the TRUTH!

Now…

RISE UP!

Let’s Pray;

Daddy God, I love You! Thank You, thank You, THANK YOU! Your Word is LIFE. Thank You for the awesome and wonderful things You have said about me. It is hard to own them and believe them. It is hard when I am in the midst of a trial to grab hold of these Truths. Help me. Remind me. Never let me go! I want to be confident in YOU! I want to be all that You created me to be! Save me from my own doubts, fears and insecurities. I love you, Daddy. In Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

    I LOVE this verse and am thankful you included it inThe Daily today! Having been “blessed” with early gray hair, this verse always has connected dearly to my heart and soul. And lately, I have found comfort in it as my husband, Dan (who suffers from Parkinson’s) has recently needed to be “carried”, literally!

    Prayers are needed and appreciated for us… I’m not sure if it is cool to link this here or not, but I would love to share a story with you. It’s called “Standing Tall” — and very hard to convey. (it is located on my site)

    love, a
