Nothing diminishes our happiness faster than a feeling of hopelessness or helplessness. Sampson thought everything was fun and games until Delilah cut off he hair. Complacency leads to the demise of everything one has worked for by allowing the chiseling away of those accomplishments. Much like King Saul who abandoned the Creator and sought witches to guide him instead. The good news is believers are not helpless because we have hope. The Creator promised Moses in Exodus 19 that if we choose to hear His instructions and do them that we would be His representatives to the world. That means we have influence and influence is power. The warning is we must use that influence and power for the glory of our Creator and not for our own selfish purpose or pride.

Don't be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Thought for Today: Sunday February 13:

If you learn to trust YHVH – really trust Him – with your whole being, then nothing can separate you from His Peace. Everything you endure can be put to good use by allowing it to train you in trust Him. This is how you foil the works of evil, growing in grace through the very adversity that was meant to harm you. Joseph was a prime example of this divine reversal, declaring to his brothers: [You meant evil against me, but YHVH meant it for good]. Do not fear what this day or any day may bring your way. Concentrate on trusting YHVH and on doing what needs to be done. Relax in His Sovereignty, remembering that He goes before you, as well as with you, into each moment. Fear no evil, for He can bring good out of every situation you will ever encounter.
