Life-Giving Words of Encouragement Restore Joy to the Heart!
“Now as they said these things, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them, and said to them, “Peace to you.” But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. And He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts?”” Luke 24:36-38.
Jesus himself stood in the midst of them and said to them, “Peace to you.”
But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed they had seen a spirit. He said to them, “Why are you troubled? And why do doubts arise in your hearts?”
“I stand in your midst this day,” says The Father, “speaking Peace to you. Do not be terrified or anxious about anything.
Anxiety and fear gets into your heart and causes depression and weighs you down, but a life giving word of encouragement can do wonders to restore joy to your heart and to those around you.
You have words in season to lift people up and not drag them down. Lovers of God give good advice to their friends, they are passionate and make good use of their time, wealth and energy.
Abundant life is discovered by walking in righteousness, but holding on to anger leads to death.”
“These are the words which I spoke to you, while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the law of Moses, and the prophets, and the psalms, concerning Me. Then He opened their understanding that they might comprehend the scriptures. Then He said to them, Thus it is written and it was necessary for Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations… and you are witnesses of these things.” Luke 24:44-49.
“I poured out everything I had for you. I AM fully invested in your success and the fulfillment of your life’s destiny,” says The Father.
“When I laid down My Life for you, I took the punishment for the sins of the world. There is no qualification necessary to receive Me, except to receive My free gift of so great a salvation paid for through the blood sacrifice of My Son that provides forgiveness for your sins, past, present and future.
My love transcends your understanding and covers a multitude of sins and when you repent and turn from them, they are removed as far as the east is from the west, so far have I removed your transgressions from you.
As a father loves His children, so My Love is surrounding you and My Provision is being released toward you this day.”
“Jesus said to them again, “Peace be to you; as My Father hath sent Me, I also send you.” When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Ghost. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them, if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.’” John 20:21.
“Jesus came and spoke to them saying, “All authority is given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of The Father and of the the Son and the Holy Ghost; teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you and lo, I AM with you always, even to the end of the world.”“ Matthew 28:18.
“Just as I love you,” says The Father, “so you ought also to love one another. While Jesus yet hung there dying on the cross for the sins of the world, having committed none, He forgave those who hurt him, for they know not what they do.
He held no offense or bitterness towards them. Unforgiveness causes undo suffering as you hold yourself and others in bondage.
As an act of your will, you choose to forgive and release, not condone their actions and accept abuse, but release their hold from your life and thinking.
As you forgive, including anything you have against Me or yourself, you also receive forgiveness.
My Mercy abounds toward you and you shall walk free and be victorious starting this very moment.
My Peace that passes all understanding shall guard and keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus.”
