Daily Bread - Your daily devotional by e-mail (www.het-woord.com/woord)

 

 

 

Be anxious for nothing,
but in everything by prayer and supplication

with thanksgiving let your requests

be made known to God

Philippians 4:6

 

 

the subject for today is:

What God wants done

 

 

Dear Friends,

 

When you feel anxious in a task or a relationship, your anxiety may be signaling the uncertainty of a goal you have chosen. You are hoping something will happen, but you have no guarantee that it will. You can control some of the factors, but not all of them.

 

For example, a teenager may believe that her happiness at school depends on her parents allowing her to attend a school dance. Not knowing how they will respond, she is anxious. If they say no, she will be angry because her goal is blocked. But if she knows all along that there is no possible chance of them saying yes, she will be depressed because her goal will not be achieved.

 

When you base your future success on something that can never happen, you have an impossible, hopeless goal. Your depression is a signal that your goal, no matter how spiritual or noble, may never be reached.

Some forms of depression can be caused by chemical imbalances. But if there is no physical cause for the depression, then that depression is the expression of hopelessness.

 

No God-given goal can be blocked, uncertain or impossible.

With God all things are possible. If God issued a command that could not be obeyed, it would undermine His authority. If God wants it done, it can be done.

 

The real question is: What does God want done?

The answer? He wants us to be what He has called us to be.

And if that's what God wants done, no situations or circumstances of life can keep you from being the engineer, homemaker, parent, or leader God has called you to be.

 

Lord, help me keep my eyes on what You want done in my life, not on the seemingly impossible hindrances that keep me from growing in You.

Thank you

Thank you so much for your Ministry, not only Daily Bread, but your other newsletters as well. I can see the changes that have occurred in my country over the last few years. People have become haters of God and lovers of their selves; I see now - deception is every where.

God has to judge this nation soon and with your Ministry the Lord will still reach the few before the end.

May God continue to bless you ministry,

You cannot thank me for “my ministry” brother, for it is not my own. I have no reason whatsoever to boast on this for it is only GRACE that allows me to do it. And If I wanted to do it from myself, I would not even have the money to accomplish it.

Furthermore it would be held against me if I did not, for it is my humble task, as one of the least servants in HIS Kingdom.

Yes things are changing in this world – in many ways – it indeed seems the world is getting ready for the last harvest.

Support our Internet Ministry!

 

Are you every day looking forward to receive "Daily Bread"?  Do you like to browse in the by now tens of thousands WebPages, or do you like the conversations in the forums? Than this is for you !

 

A big interactive site with over 10 domains, news systems, newsletters, forums, web- polls, etc. pity enough costs a lot of money.

 

The reason why we although we have to live on social welfare, still do this, is because we are sure that hundreds of people are blessed by what we are doing on the internet. It is not by accident that we had now already over half a million visitors on our sites.

 

To do this all we are completely depending on God’s grace, and because of your donations we can afford to continue. Therefore we also ask you to see if you could help us to keep this internet activity alive. Thanks in advance for your support!

 

Incase you like to support financially your donations can be sent to:

"Faith Evangelistic Assn." - Rhijnauwensingel 176 - 3077 EV Rotterdam  mentioning: "Daily Bread"

In case you would like to help us to pay for the computer please mention 'Computer'
