For only we who believe can enter his rest. As for the others, God said, “In my anger I took an oath: ‘They will never enter my place of rest,’” even though this rest has been ready since he made the world.
When you feel frustrated or upset, or if you have lost your peace and your joy, ask yourself, “Am I believing God’s Word?” The only way to be free from struggling is to believe the Word and obey whatever Jesus puts in your heart to do. Believing God’s Word delivers you from struggling so you can rest in the promises of God.
If your thoughts have become negative and you are full of doubt, it is because you have stopped believing God’s Word and trusting Him. As soon as you start believing God’s Word, your joy will return, and you will be at ease again.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, when doubt creeps in, help me believe Your Word and obey what You’ve asked of me. Restore my joy and peace as I choose to trust You fully. I love You, Lord, amen.
