The Lessons In The Little Things....

Consider the lilies how they grow:  they toil not, they spin not, and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.  If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and tomorrow is cast into the oven; how much more will e clothe you, O ye of little faith?  Luke 12:27-28.

How many of us see this Word and say glory to God, but keeps it moving?  How many of us battle with the spirit of worry? 

Let’s face it, we can all turn on the news right now and before it’s over, we can find something to worry about.  We can worry about the kids and schools.  We can worry about walking down a street and getting robbed or murdered.  We can worry about our health.  We can worry about the economy.  Oh, it’s easy to worry.  Yet, is that walking in faith as a child of God or walking as a child of darkness? Do we really know that we are part of the Kingdom of God or just say it in church on Sunday?

The Lord reminded me of something.  See I just left the dentist (a professional I’m thankful for but hateJ), so I decided to go to the store to help relieve the hour I had to wait before eating again.  I saw this purse that was so cute.  Yet it didn’t have a price tag on it, it didn’t have the bar code needed, and it was the only one left in this store.  I contacted an employee and tried so hard to get the purse, but decided to let it go.  Besides it’s only a purse.

Being bum out by it, I decided to go next door to the shoe store just to look at some shoes since I couldn’t get the purse.  I come down the escalator and there it was the same purse I wanted from the previous store.  No problem with price tag, same design, and same color.  When I saw it, I felt myself leaping for joy and praising God in my car for this purse. Now, I know this is just a purse right. 

The lesson I got from that day was if God granted my desire of my heart with a purse, a desire, not a need; how much more He will grant my needs.  See I never said I prayed to find the purse somewhere else.  It was just given to me that way.  So the same God that granted my desire is the same God that can grant my needs.

The eyes of the Lord are every place, beholding the evil and the good.  Proverbs 15:3

God sees even when we feel like He doesn’t see!  He sees we need money.  He sees we need our health.  He sees we need our jobs.  He sees we need safe peaceful dwelling places.  He sees!  He knows!  Yet here’s the kicker…He cares!

So I encourage the saints to take authority that they have in Christ and tell the spirit of worry to depart from you in Jesus name!  We are part of God’s kingdom, not the kingdom of this world!  We have goodly heritage in Him!

The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea I have a goodly heritage. Psalm 16:6

Remember saints, nothing is too hard for the God we serve!
