Stand On Solid Ground

Friend, in the times of our lives we go through so many things; so many "ups" and so many "downs."

Oh, how we love the "ups!"

But it's important to know how to get through the "downs."

The "downs" in life are allowed so that our soul can learn; be strengthened and grow in knowledge.

They come to us by way of the demonic forces controlled by satan the enemy of God.

Those demons he lets loose from the pit of hell to torment, annoy and harass us.

Satan intends to groom us for his evil purposes. His hate and jealousy of Jesus is so intense that he will never stop of his own accord, the persecution of the human race on earth. He uses us to sell drugs to our fellow man. He uses us to steal and robs our fellow citizens. He uses us to murder each other. He is able to get in our thoughts and wreak havoc in our minds.

His way is to bring us ever deeper down into all of the vices of mankind.

Depression is a direct result of not knowing God, The Father of all things; not having complete trust in Him and not believing His Promises for His children.

When we know His Promises, we realize that depression has left us. The chemical imbalances have been equalized to His Perfection. We are eating what He offers and listening to His Word and desiring to know His Way, Will and Law.

We even start loving others and caring for others. We start to realize the "Big Picture" like never before. We understand the big picture we thought we knew is really the small mindedness of satan's flimsy fake world. And we believed him!!!

Yes, Jesus expects change in us. Because, friend, it is needed for our soul to flourish and bloom; to be useful for the Kingdom.

He is willing to Forgive; teach and guide us into a relationship with Him as Friend, Confidant, and Saviour.

We come to know He is Merciful. His Mercy for us and our day, is new every morning. The old is Forgiven and left behind. The new day is before us and Goodness awaits our every sense.

There is no need to fear, for He is with us.

Call Him, Immanuel, one of His Names; God with us. 

Holy Almighty and Powerful God, Perfect in every way is asking us to trust Him to keep us, to the last day. After we nailed Him to the Cross and He paid the price for our sins, we only need recognize Him for His Sovereignity over all things. Wisdom and Knowledge are freely given after choosing Him as Saviour.

No matter what He allows in our lives and there will be some trials because we are not perfect and need to be changed according to His Will and Law, we should never be afraid to trust Him and follow Him as He leads the Way through our day.

Just knowing that He is with you, should give you the strength to overcome minute by minute. With His Help you can pull yourself up out of the sinking sand.

Fight to stay on solid ground.
