Anchoring Truths

Hebrews 12:15-17 - Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Don't allow yourself to have bitterness towards anyone no matter what wrong is done against you because bitterness only affects your heart and can cause God not to hear you because of the sin in your heart.

Psalm 77:13-15 - Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Avoid the snare of depression by focusing on God and His goodness instead of focusing on yourself.

1 Kings 19:1-4 - And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time. And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there. But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Don't allow discouragement to control and wreck your life because you can defeat it with the strength of the Lord and by remembering God's faithfulness.

Genesis 50:19-21 - And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God? But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive. Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Even though you might be in a place to take revenge on the injustice against you, don't because God is the judge and avenger, and He has a plan for everything in your life.

1 Peter 2:20-23 - For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

Daily Anchor of Truth: When experiencing injustice, remember to follow Christ's example, even though it won't be easy, and leave the situation in God's hands.

Ephesians 5:1-2 - Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

1 John 3:1-3 - Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Are you living your life as the children of God because He has done so much for you not to live a life that glorifies Him and shines a light into the world for the lost to see?

1 John 5:9-11 - If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

Daily Anchor of Truth: The Holy Spirit witnesses with your spirit about salvation, and you can have the assurance that you are saved by the seal of the Comforter.

Psalm 2:1-4 - Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together,against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

Daily Anchor of Truth: No matter what the world may say or promote, God is still and will always be in control.

Joshua 24:14-15 - Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

Daily Anchor of Truth: Choose to daily follow the Lord, no matter what may happen in your day or how you may feel, because God will always be faithful to you.
