WHAT IS HE DOING?

Sometimes you are challenged to show and or tell what the LORD is doing for you. Someone is ready to dissect the contents of you testimony. Your faith is always under scrutiny and it is often difficult for you to provide tangible evidence, when the demand is: “show me what God has done for you”. Your hands are empty, your mind goes blank and you are near speechless, searching hard for a satisfactory answer. It is difficult when you are not able to connect your blessings with tangible things or with some great and miraculous experience. It could be that at the very moment, you are enduring much trials and tribulations and the challenges are many. The problems are many but the solutions are few or none existent. This type of experience is sometimes the Believers greatest obstacle to sharing the Gospel. We are apt to forget and or discount the Saving Power of His Grace. Afraid of reviewing our past, comparing it with our present. We put it aside to search for something that we consider more tangible and more relevant. Quite often we find that the more we search for that event or thing that we consider relevant or equal to the testimonies of others; we come up empty handed and can see and feel our faith shrinking. Doubt sets in and we may even start questioning the faithfulness of the LORD and or His presence in our lives. Our lives feel so void that we often forget that the Holy Spirit is continually with us. The continuous works of Christ and that of the Holy Spirit often escape us because of a weakened faith. Then we really feel and experience weakness all around. God knew the challenges we would face, our weakness, our infirmities and all our fears. He knew that we all had a learning problem when it comes to His ways, short memory, un-willing heart, lack of faith and lack of understanding. Therefore the Holy Spirit is always there to teach us all things, guide us into all truth and to bring to remembrance all that we have been taught (John 14:26 and 16:13 KJV). And to backup His promises and guarantee the fulfillment of the better Covenant; we have an advocate with the father: Jesus Christ the righteous (1 John 2), who is working on our behalf taking care of those things which we are un-aware of and all those others that we believe we know well and how to deal with.

Beloved: there is always an Answer and a Testimony worth sharing. They tell of the Mercies of God which are new every morning. They speak of a Savior who is alive and who never cease from His labor of love. WHAT IS HE DOING for me; you ask? The truth is I am too ashamed to tell you the truth about my Crimes, my offences, my lapses, my desires, my wants and all my Sins; because they are not good and they are too many, but I thank God Almighty for His unspeakable Gift. His Son, The LORD Jesus Christ is my Counselor and Advocate who pleads my case continually before the Righteous Judge, God the Father. I am confident of an acquittal on all charges because Jesus is my Defense. He guaranteed it with His own life. Jesus has never lost a case and He can never loose. He is able to save me to the uttermost, because HE EVER LIVETH TO MAKE INTERCESSION FOR ME (Romans 8: 27 & 34) and (Hebrews 7: 25).  How about you, WHAT IS HE DOING for you?
