In this podcast I share about that feeling of hopelessness when we try to follow each biblical principle but end up doing the complete opposite, and the hopeless and helpless feelings that follow.
Isaiah 30:18
Therefore the Lord waits [expectantly] and longs to be gracious to you,
And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you.
For the Lord is a God of justice;
Blessed (happy, fortunate) are all those who long for Him [since He will never fail them].
Good Day Atarah you so right your message today as a message of hope to me its difficult but thanks for reminding us of the scripture Prov 24.19 that the righteous falls 7 times and rises again.
Micah I’m so glad this scripture helped you because feelings of guilt is something we all struggle with daily. My biggest blessing has been having a HH who loves me so much and who l love so much that l could never leave Him… knowing l can go to Him every time and that HE will shower me with His love as l speak to Him and share what’s on my heart is so freeing!!
Thank you Atarah for sharing this. I also struggled tremendously with following the principles, and failed miserably more than once! But it did become easier the closer I got to Him and asking Him to help us is so important. I still fail sometimes, but instead of justifying my actions like I did in the past, He immediately shows me where I failed and I can ask forgiveness and know that He loves me and that He will pick me up again!
So identified!! At the beginning of my journay I struggled so much, because of my pride!!
There ara so many live changing principles that were very hard to digest at the begining, but once I decided to obey, my life changed around!!
I still make a lot of mistakes, but now I am showered by His love and protection.
Thank you Atarah for sharing. I have had the enemy attacking me a lot this week and struggled with following the principles. Here lately it seems He is using you or the others to know exactly what I need to hear. I’m thankful for you all and I am starting the Thankfulness Therapy today because I think it will bring me closer in my relationship with the Lord.
The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. L322 ESV
Even if good people fall seven times, they will get back up. But when trouble strikes the wicked, that’s the end of them. P2416 CEV
Oh Hope thank you! it’s so great having this confirmation! Just to know that what I’m posting or sharing is what HE wants me to share🙏🙌🏾 TT is something that really helps me on days when I’m just not feeling right or l feel down in my spirit. It picks me right up!
Thank you Atarah for sharing I too struggle a lot with following Bible principles but what comforts me is going back to him whenever I fail and ask him forgiveness.
Me too Nomuula. He shows me why I have to continue to forgive others because He is so often forgiving me! 💕
