Thank you so much for sharing how to rest in Christ in attacks of the enemy. Just went through some too. I'm always asking God for help at work but I've not had that renewing that you received today. I must have just received it through you though, Praise God thank you Christ Jesus!
30:28 I have gotten to the point in my life where when calamity hits, I rejoice. My first instinct is to panic, and then I thank God, telling Him I can't WAIT to see the good that's going to come out of this since He is sovereign!
Amen Brother ❣️🎯💯 Thank you Holy Spirit for giving utterance. Thank you Jacob for this cup of refreshing Water🔥⛲🙌 This has been my experience and what the Lord has taught me. This is how we reign in Life. The Body of Christ so needs to hear this and understand, because I feel that too often we are still trying to use the Holy Spirit like you said, "as a magic Jeannie in a bottle" to help perfect our flesh or our circumstances, and we keep relying on our own strength to get through situations because we have been taught by religion that we must keep the law in order to be pleasing to God, when sometimes our own efforts to try and make a situation work are actually hindering the Work of God, when He hasn't called us to handle them but to cease from our labour and enter His Rest. 2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. Romans 5:17 KJV - For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) John 10: 9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. Ephesians 6: 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.40 He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward. Seek the Lord's Wisdom in every situation. I heard a line from a movie this week that is True: Whether you throw yourself in the river or stand on the bank, remember that there is Grace for you on either side. Some burdens are too heavy for us to bear, and its ok. In fact that is the best realization you can come to. As for me, I stayed in an abusive marriage for 30 years thinking that is what God required of me in order to be pleasing to Him, and thinking that I needed to lay down my life for my ex-husband husband in order to try and save him, until the Lord woke me up to my self righteous flesh and said in my spirit, "Are you trying to be God? I laid down my life for you and am the only one who can save. Yes, I hate divorce, but I also hate abuse." I was raised in the Church of Christ that taught that you would go to hell for divorce. It took a lot of years for God to bring me to the end of myself, and that is when I discovered God's tremendous Grace and finally learned of my true Identity in Christ. All I can say is my efforts in my own strength produced nothing but rotten fruit and destroyed God's image and character in the eyes of my children who want nothing to do with God or me now. There are consequences to the decisions we make in life, but you cannot go wrong Resting in Christ. He will work all things together for good. There is no condemnation to them that aee in Christ Jesus. Matthew 11: 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Wow, praise God. Thanks for taking the time to type all that out, that is really edifying! I love those verses, and that's a very powerful testimony. Your attitude is encouraging, and I'm glad God led you into rest in Christ through those things 🙏
@@JacobInChrist Praise God for your courage to speak Truth and Light knowing that it will be rejected by law/sin/works focused "Christiandom." 🙌😘 1 Thessalonians 2:4 KJV - But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.
Good on you Jacob. 👌 Just the fact that you were able to use this stressful situation to build up other believers, this is a blessing. God is 100% on our side (and on our inside😂).

Thanks David. 2 Corinthians 12:9: And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. All glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
