â Today's Promise: âWithout faith it is impossible to please God.â Hebrews 11:6
~ Ruby in California
Dear Brides,
Imagine living without any fear? If we think about this and reflect on what this chapter says, this will make such a huge differing in our lives. Imagine being able to face things with excitement instead of fear?!?
I have been asking My Love if I am holding anything back from Him. To show me how to love Him the way He deserves to be loved. To help me love Him more and to reveal to me anything that stands in our way.
He revealed to me yesterday that I have fear. We all learned in this chapter that fear is the opposite of having faith in Him. And âwithout faith it is impossible to please Godâ. Therefore this is what is the way of more intimacy with My True Love. This is my mountain that I need to move to love Him more.
There are two other examples of fear that I have that is holding me back from loving My HH (Heavenly Husband) more and living the abundant life My Love wants me to have.
One is purchasing a new vehicle. I have been waiting on My Love on what to do. I, like most women, donât know or have never purchased a vehicle alone before. I am determined to do this with My HH and not by myself. I have been talking to Him and waiting on Him for several months about which to buy and what to do with my vehicle I need to sell to get the new vehicle. It has been giving me trouble and is so expensive to maintain and it uses so much expensive gas. The payment is rather high also.
This morning He told me which vehicle to call about to look into purchasing. I started off excited. Feeling that this is it! Then fear starts to come. I wonder if I heard Him right. I wonder if I should look around at other vehicles still. But I need to keep the excitement and faith that I had in the beginning and get rid of the fear before it roots itself in. I trust My Love so there is no room for fear here!!
Second, I realize that Iâm having mixed feelings about the wedding of our oldest son. I feel such joy for him but then I have this fear that doesnât let me feel all the joy My Love means for me to feel. My love revealed to me that I have fear of shame. I donât know if EH (earthly husband) will be bringing the OW (other woman) to the wedding even though the older kids and I have not met her. I know the kids would rather not meet her or have her at the wedding but I donât know what is to happen. Whatever the Will of My Love is I accept but I realize I have fear of shame in my heart still. This is never how I ever imagined us to be when our children were getting married or when we become grandparents. This fear of shame is also in the way.
Many verses in this chapter, âFeelingsâ in the book/course Moving Mountains, spoke to me. I want to always be pleasing to God and being reminded thatâŠâŠ
âWithout faith it is impossible to please Godâ Hebrews 11:6
I need to turn fear into faith as this chapter encourages us to do so that I can please My Love. I want to love Him the way He deserves to be loved.
âWhat the wicked fears will come upon him, but the desire of the righteous will be grantedâ Proverbs 10:24.
It is the wicked who lives in fear. The wicked will fall. But we Brides live hand in hand with Our HH (Heavenly Husband) and we may stumble but we will never fall. Because He is holding our hand and He will never let us fall.
The whole chapter of Psalm 37 is such a wonderful promise from our HH. His Word and Promises are true. Read the whole chapter over and over.
âDo not fret [to be worried, irritated, or agitated about something] because of evildoers, be not envious toward wrongdoers. For they will wither quickly like the grass and fade like the green herb. Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He will do it. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgment as the noonday. Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger and forsake wrath; do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. For evildoers will be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land. Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more; and you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there. But the humble will inherit the land and will delight themselves in abundant prosperity.â (Psalm 37:1â11).
