Where Do We Find Strength? - 2

Exodus 33:14 

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

Deuteronomy 31:8 

The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

Deuteronomy 33:27 

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, ‘Destroy him!’

Psalms 34:17 

The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.

Isaiah 30:15 

This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.

Luke 2:1 and 4-5

1 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.

4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 

5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child.

Thoughts on Today's Verse....

Isn't it amazing at how many inconveniences in our lives the Lord uses to accomplish his will in us. Can you think of a worse time to have to go on a cross-country trip with their modes of travel than Joseph and Mary faced. Yet God turned it into the moment in which the angels found their tune and Satan met his match.

Thoughts 

. Knowing the Bible helps us know the God of the Bible.

. Daily blessings are daily reminders of God.

. We follow the example of Christ when we serve people in need.

. Jesus longs to turn our mistakes into amazing examples of His grace.
