I'm subscribed to daily devotionals in my email and here are the recent verses I got that spoke to me and my current situation.
June 26:
"Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them?" declares the Lord. "Do not I fill heaven and earth?" declares the Lord. - Jeremiah 23:24 (NIV)
I am in too much pain. It's been 5 days that I've been feeling the lower left back pain. Today, God assures me that He sees me and my sufferings. I am comforted.
June 28:
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. - 2 Peter 3:9 (NIV)
I really felt God embracing me with His Word with this verse. He will lift up this disease from me in His perfect timing. I just need be still in Him.
June 30:
"The Lord will vindicate me; your love, Lord, endures forever - do not abandon the works of your hands." - Psalm 138:8 (NIV)
After a day of being at A&E and going back to urologist for consultation, the Lord affirms his promises that He will not forget the works I do for His Kingdom and that He alone will edify me from my situation.
July 2:
[ Humble Service in the Body of Christ ] For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. - Romans 12:3 (NIV)
I received this verse before my service to the church leaders seminar/meeting. I am asked to sing for the segment similar to "The Voice" talent show. I am singing with another sister - it's a duet. I am reminded to be humble even though God has given me the gift to sing.
July 3:
The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it? "I the Lord search the heart and examine the mind, to reward each person according to their conduct, according to what their deeds deserve." - Jeremiah 17:9-10
Today, I take this as really don't go for gut feel or emotions. Feelings are just feelings. I should look upon God, His Word and His will and let Him search my heart to make it pure for Him to use me.
Thank You my God and my Father for seeing me, hearing me and loving me. Thank You for reminding me of Your Word and Your love.
