Day 17

Faith in GOD always moves us forward..!
Faith is the very wellspring of purposeful living..
There is no compelling motivation than the knowledge that we are sons and daughters of the Most High GOD, and that GOD expects us to do something with our lives, and will help us when we seek Him and depend on Him..
We fall prey to the illusion that our lives don’t matter and we have no connection or impact on the world around us. That is the biggest lie of the devil..
But you are God’s chosen treasure—priests who are kings, a spiritual “nation” set apart as God’s devoted ones. He called you out of darkness to experience His marvelous light, and now He claims you as His very own. He did this so that you would broadcast His glorious wonders throughout the world..
I will cry to God Most High, Who performs on my behalf and rewards me, who brings to pass His purposes for me and surely completes them..!
He will send from heaven and save me from the slanders and reproaches of him who would trample me down or swallow me up, and He will put him to shame; [pause, and calmly think of that]! God will send forth His mercy and loving-kindness and His truth and faithfulness..
“Great [are You] in counsel and mighty in deed, whose eyes are open to all the ways of the sons of men, to reward or repay each one according to his ways and according to the fruit of his deeds;” (Jeremiah 32:19)
