Dealing with hurt and disappointment BY: KB © 12.9.14

Matthew 26: 52-54   …52Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword.53"Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels? 54"How then will the Scriptures be fulfilled, which say that it must happen this way?"…

This passage is Jesus speaking; just let your mind grasp the concept of 12 legions of angels; angels ready to do battle!

Now, I being a mere mortal but a believer none the less I claim Romans 8: 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs--heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

I have the same ability to call on God for the power so there is no reason to be down cast, down trodden, burdened and put upon by the things of this world.

REPEAT AFTER ME:     I HAVE A CHOICE !!!! I HAVE A GODLY VOICE AND I CAN CALL UPON HIM IN MY TIME OF NEED!!!!!

We don’t get a crown without a cross and we don’t get a testimony without the test but we can bear the burdens with joy because our inheritance is a result of our identifying and joining in the suffering which leads to our perfection.

Matthew 16:24  Then Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.
Matthew 11:29 -30  …29"Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. 30"For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."

Let me leave you with this….the old saints used to sing – I’m Coming Up On The Rough Side Of The Mountain…..


Why the rough side? Because if the mountain was smooth you couldn't climb it! Amen!!!
