What is on the lips of every human being in the world right now?

Daily Devotional Ebenezer

Psalm 55:22 (AMP)
22 Cast your burden on the Lord [release it], and He will sustain and uphold you;
He will never allow the righteous to be shaken (slip, fall, fail).

The Coronavirus is on every person's lips right now. Do you think this happened to bring fear into the hearts of people all over the world? Are we too busy living our lives and forgetting to turn to the Lord? I realize that it's because of our finances, and we struggle with our relationships that our focus has moved from God to ourselves. Now the door is open for fear and anxiety to creep its way into our lives. Some people are feeling uneasy and restless throughout the day.

Today I want to encourage you to take all the necessary precautions and make sure you are safe. We should draw near to the Lord; He is our only way forward. The Psalms remind us to give our burdens to the Lord, and He will take care of us. In this verse, I see it doesn't refer to being anxious and that we won't experience any problems. The scripture does, however, say, when we do have issues, we should give them to the Lord.

Something to think about, why don't you spend some time today in prayer and speak to God about your fears. Why don't you write it down so you can see what is bugging you, and is it affecting you negatively? Speak to fellow Christian friends asking them to pray with you, and deal with the fears you are facing right now.

Prayer Dear Abba Father, Lord, today I want to pile all my troubles on Your shoulders, please help me carry this heavy burden. The threat of the Coronavirus is real, and people are worried and concerned about health. Lord, as I think of my family and friend, I draw a hedge of Jesus Christ's blood around my family and friends. Protect each one of us today, let this illness not come to us. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...
