PEACE IN THE VALLEY

"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"   Psalm 46:10

"Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6

"Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” Hebrews 13:5

"…teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”  Matthew 28:20

“I will go before you And make the crooked places straight;
I will break in pieces the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.” Isaiah 45:2

"And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night.  He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day or the pillar of fire by night from before the people." Exodus 13:21-22

Throughout the Bible, as evidenced in the above Scriptures and many others, Adonai gave us His promise that we are never alone.  Adonai is faithful to His Word to perform exactly what He says.  The Bible tells us He is not a man that He should lie. Numbers 23:19

.

Everything we do must be done with the help of the Ruach haKodesh/the Holy Spirit.  The Bible tells us that He is our Helper Who was sent when Yeshua/Jesus returned to Heaven to the Father.  John 14:26

Any believer who attempts to do anything without the help and direction of the Holy Spirit is doomed.  When we proceed with our activities and plans and they fail, more than likely we didn’t ask for the Father’s help or direction.  It is imperative that we always pray and ask for direction from Adonai.  Nehemiah did… “ O Lord, I pray, please let Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants who desire to fear Your name; and let Your servant prosper this day, I pray, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man.” Nehemiah 1:11

“With all that Adonai has given us in His Word, if we are obedient, follow His direction and stay faithful and trust Him, we will have peace. “No matter what we go through in this life, it’s not the end, only the journey to your destination…when you get there, you’ll give thanks that your journey was blessed, that you were never alone and that He was with you every moment making sure that you made it to the Promised Land.”  The Book of Mysteries by Jonathan Cahn/Day 165

We will have peace in our valley situations knowing that Adonai has heard our prayers.  Adonai already knows what things we are in need of and He has already answered our prayers.  As we wait for the manifestation, pray for the needs of others.  We are commanded to pray for each other… "Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." James 5:16

Also pray for our leaders, government, etc. “Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior” I Timothy 2:1-4

As we pray we maintain that peace in our valley situations, stay encouraged as David did… “David strengthened himself in the Lord his God” I Samuel 30:6

When doubt creeps in, stay encouraged by reading and meditating on Adonai’s Word; being still so that you can hear what Abba Father is saying to your spirit and know that He is faithful to His promises in His Word.

Shalom!
