So many times when we are going through crisis or problems, like Peter, we take our eyes off our Savior.  We take our eyes off our very present help in time of trouble.

"Keep on asking and it will be given to you; keep on seeking and you will find; keep on knocking and the door will be opened to you."  (Matthew 7:7 AMP).

Many times in our lives, we give up before we get our breakthrough.  We give up before we obtain the promises of God.  We stand on the Word for a few weeks and when nothing happens right away, we quit.  Instead we need to stick with it.  We need to hold on until we receive what we are believing God for.  No matter how bad things look.  If we press in, God will always come through for us.

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour?  Do you believe Jesus died to pay the price for your sin?  That He was raised from the dead?  Then just pray aloud, "Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins.  Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour."  If you believed in your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again.  Let us know if you prayed this prayer.  

Every scripture is God-breathed,so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well-fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17 AMP).
 
Every word of the Bible is breathed by God.  We are to read the Bible so that we may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.  It is only when we let ourselves be taught by the Holy Spirit that we understand the Bible that well.  He is our Teacher.  Only He gives us the knowledge we need to understand the Word.  Only He can show us what to do in every situation.  Only He knows what we need at the right time.  Every time.  He is the best Teacher we will ever have.

[Touching] the Almighty, we cannot find him out: [he is] excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict. - Job 37:23

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. - 3 John 2 (King James Version).

God wants us to prosper and be in health as our soul prospers.

What does that word prosper mean in this context?  It is the Greek transliterated word euodoo, which means to grant a prosperous and expeditious journey, to lead by a direct and easy way, to grant a successful issue, to cause to prosper, to prosper, be successful.

In other words, God wants to lead us into prosperity of our health, wealth and in  every area of our lives.  He does this by leading us by a direct and easy way that will cause us to prosper and be successful.

We will never be successful in life if we don't let God lead us.  If we follow our own way, we will fail every time.  How much we are yielded to God will determine how much prosperity we enjoy in our lives.

Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. - Hebrews 12:2

We all make choices in life. We decide whether we will go out with Fred or Martin. Whether we will cheat on our taxes. Whether we will pursue that career or another one.

This week I experienced some physical discomfort. Nothing serious, but it hurt nevertheless. I tried all the remedies and nothing seemed to work.

I believe that I am healed. I know that according to the Word, Jesus already took all my sicknesses, pains and discomforts when He took stripes on His back at the Cross.

Some times, though, when we are in the middle of the problem, still feeling the discomfort, waiting for God's Word to manifest, we become discouraged.

In those times, we can complain. We can say things that are contrary to the Word, such as “I'm going to have this pain forever” or “God's Word doesn't work."

Or we can choose to continue saying faith-filled words, such as “By Jesus' stripes, I am healed,” “God has taken sickness away from the midst of me,” or “God has restored health unto me and healed me on my wounds.”

The choice is ours. We can continue to stay in faith, believing and speaking God's Word. Or we can allow doubt and unbelief and the discomfort to bully us into saying words of fear and discouragement.

I choose to continue to believe and speak what God says. What about you?

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. - 1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV)

We need to stand firm to the Word and to what God Himself has spoken to us personally.  We cannot allow the devil, our finances, our health, our neighbors, our sisters and brothers at church to move us off that Word.  We have to stick to it through thick and thin...and hold onto it when everything else in the natural says it isn't going to come to pass.  We must be like Linus from the Peanuts comics and his security blanket.  We need to hold that promise, that Word from God, even when it is tattered and torn.  We have to watch for that promise until we see it manifest.  We cannot let go.
