Thank you for posting Dave.
This does seem like 'This is the day the Lord has made" for this message.
I've sent it on to many people I know.
I love that the message of joy is paramount to believers in the midst of the coming chaos. We seem to be in the calm before the storm right now.
Brother Edgar exhorted the message of joy last night on the Monday night prayer call.
A believer shared with me a good rule of thumb before making decisions.
-Pray.
Confirm in the written Word of God.
-Pray.
Get godly counsel.
-Pray.
Circumstances assessed but not to dictate.
God will never contradict His Word.
"My sheep hear my voice, and they know me."
When you have the peace of God which passes all understanding:
Step out in faith and GO.
We are the ones who are not going to panic in these trying times.
We are the ones who will rejoice in difficult circumstances and impossible odds will not throw us for a loop.
In this storm we will cling closer to our Savior and persevere.
"He who overcomes will inherit these things, and I will be His God
and he will be my son".( implies daughters also)
