Thursday Writing by Brother Thomas & Jody.........2/2/17

Good morning,

Brother Thomas Ukwute and Jody Ward co-authored today's writing which is titled, "God Is Always At Work." Their topic is that waiting for God as he works unseen is required. God is always at work behind the scenes in our behalf. This is a quote from this writing, "The enemy may fight, the road may be lonely and rough, the night may be dark but one thing is for certain. He will not rest until He brings to pass His purposes for your life."

Hope you are will have a good Thursday. The news is daunting and we need to pray for our country and our president.

God bless,

Corinne, Brother Thomas, & Jody

Today's Devotional

"God Is Always At Work"

For Zion’s sake, I cannot keep silent until her righteousness shines like the sun. 

Because I love her, and my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I will not cease to pray for her until her vindication radiates brightness.

I will not stop crying out to God on the Holy City’s behalf and I cannot rest until her salvation burns like a blazing torch in the night and her deliverance rises like the dawn. I will not be silent until she is safe and secure.

Isaiah 62.1

Many times, in our journey of faith, we feel so lonely. It feels as if God is not near us or around us. Sometimes, we get so discouraged that some of the things we expected are not coming through. Other times, we get frustrated that we took ten steps forward and then slid four steps back. Then, while mourning for the four lost steps, we forget we are six steps ahead of where we used to be.

When we see, or hear, that someone slipped and fell, do not put them down or make fun of them. Keep in mind, underneath each person is the hand of the master crafter who will remove all the rough edges and bring them up in perfection. This is because of who He is and what He can accomplish, even in dark hours and tough times.

The Lord is not afraid to let us go through hills and valleys, for it is in those situations that He will make Himself known as we experience His presence, power and love. The enemy may fight, the road may be lonely and rough, the night may be dark but one thing is for certain. He will not rest until He brings to pass His purposes for your life.

So why are afraid, worried, frustrated or discouraged? There is no need for these things. Your God is working behind the scene for you and He will bring it to pass soon.
