"COUNT-on-ABLE"

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

ARE YOU SEEKING?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

^1-3The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

We heard such a wonderful and encouraging message yesterday at AHOP delivered by one who fully understands the faithfulness of GOD, Anna Brooks.

She has experienced the faithfulness of GOD through an unparalleled journey of hurts, loss, betrayal, disappointment, confusion, and questions. And in spite of ALL of it, she continues to emerge undaunted and remains anchored in the promises found in the WORD.

Lamentations 3:22-23

22 Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,

for his compassions never fail.

23 They are new every morning;

great is your faithfulness.

And yesterday as Anna delivered passage after passage of GOD’s faithfulness it served as a strong reminder that all “recoverers” and believers should turn to and count on the WORD when times are difficult and circumstances get tough.

It is through HIS WORD that God has given all of us an assurance that will provide sustained encouragement through every season of life.

For God truly IS faithful. HE is SUPREMELY “count-on-able”! J

We CAN count on Him to be and do exactly what He says.

For He is trustworthy!

Psalm 37:5

Amplified Bible (AMP)

⁵ Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.

He loves beyond our wildest dreams!

Romans 5:8

New Life Version (NLV)

⁸ But God showed His love to us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

He is sturdy and FAITHFUL!

Joshua 1:5

New Life Version (NLV)

⁵ No man will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. I will be with you just as I have been with Moses. I will be faithful to you and will not leave you alone.

He is so committed to our best interest that He will use any facet of His nature—Comforter, Discipliner, Savior, etc.—to guide us safely through life’s changes, it’s rough roads and it’s overwhelming circumstances.

He is there. He is prepared to help. He is capable to help and He is FAITHFUL to help!

Hebrews 13:5

I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you.

Therefore, I encourage you. Take a page from Anna’s testimony this morning and embrace the faithfulness of GOD!

Deuteronomy 7:9

Know, recognize, and understand therefore that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God, Who keeps covenant and steadfast love and mercy with those who love Him and keep His commandments, to a thousand generations,

I love you all.
