I love the saying: "We need to put our problems into prospective: "Problem...here is my God!"

Everyone either faces or is fighting some form of battle. Battles of fear, pain, lonliness, anger, temptation, hardships, difficulties, rejection...

2 Ch. 20:15 b...This is what the Lord says to you; Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's.

We may not face an enemy Army, but everyday we face personal battles. When we pray and ask God to help us with these battles (struggles)...God "will" fight them for us. We need to realize our human limits...and that the battles are not ours, but Gods. "Let go...let God." We need to allow the Lords strength and power (Eph. 6:10) to work through our fears, weaknesses, and discouragements. During the most troubling times... claim the peace of Christ! (John 16:33b "so that in Me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." Php 4:4-**7**)

With the Lords strength, power, peace... we may face battles...but the Lord fights them for us. Whisper...we are more than conquerors...

"THROUGH HIM!" (Romans 8:37)

Eph. 6:10-19 1 John 4:4 Rom. 8:37 John 16:33 2 Cr. 20:15 **2 Cor 12:7-10** In Christ, Brown Eagle

Have a blessed Tuesday!

Natural Mountains turned into Spiritual Mole Hills

Natural roads are rough these days. Traveling is difficult and overwhelming at times. Direction grows blurry...getting side tracked makes getting lost much easier. Anothers map is ineligible in ones own personal walk. Depending on the season...roads may become dangerous...to others fatal. Mountain ahead...possible job loss, loved one walking out, worn out, illness, finances at zero... and a few find dead ends...miles still continue on.


Open your map....Gods Word...for direction and guidance. (Isa. 48:17 Isa 58:11 Psm 139:9,10 Col. 3:2)

Facing the earthly mountain.... Mount Job Loss. Spiritual map...Jer 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, "declares the Lord," plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Is that mountain starting to become a spiritual molehill yet... if not... press on...deeper. Phil 4:19 Psm 23:1 Luke 12:27-31 Matt. 17:20, 21 Ecc. 3:6

We cannot control trials, sufferings or the mountains along our path... but our faith and walk must not be hindered by them. (Matt. 17:20, 21) In faith...tell those mountains to move. Whisper...If you are unable to do this, turn your eyes away from the mountain and look to Christ for a deeper faith. Whisper...More faith...until you are able to see natural mountains become spiritual molehills. In Christ, Brown Eagle

Isa 40:4..."Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low, the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain."

Jesus Promising Spiritual Rest
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. (Matthew 11:28-30)
Two of the Lord's "exceedingly great and precious promises" (2 Peter 1:4) are found in our present verses: "I will give you rest" and "you will find rest for your souls." These promises supplement well our earlier studies on God's promises and God's rest. The first promise pertains to justification and spiritual birth. The second pertains to sanctification and spiritual growth.

The first promise is addressed to those who are struggling under the burden of guilt and condemnation related to sin: "all you who labor and are heavy laden." This is where everyone begins their earthly trek. David testified of this common starting point for humanity." Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me" (Psalm 51:5).

In order to enjoy the benefits of this initial promise of rest, a person must bring their sin and guilt to Jesus. "Come to Me." The Lord Jesus can remove this load of guilt, because he carried that burden of sin for us on the cross. "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53:6). For all who come to Jesus in humble repentance, forgiveness is granted. The promise is fulfilled: "I will give you rest."

The second promise is addressed to those who have found the initial rest of forgiveness, but their soul is restless. They are struggling under the burden of trying to produce a godly life by their own fleshly resources. "Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now being made perfect by the flesh?" (Galatians 3:3). They yearn for rescue from the crushing load of walking according to the flesh. "Who will deliver me from this body of death?" (Romans 7:24).

In order to enjoy the benefits of this additional promise of rest, a person must yoke up with Jesus (walk with Him in daily intimacy). "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me." This yoke is not for the purpose of pulling half of the load (like the yoke placed upon two oxen). "My yoke is easy and My burden is light." This is yoke of relationship and communion. "Learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart." Those who walk this path of growing communion with the Lord have this second promise fulfilled. "You will find rest for your souls."

Lord Jesus, I give You praise for granting me rest from the burden of sin's guilt and condemnation. Now, I seek You for that daily rest from a self-striving soul. I want to walk with you intimately, day by day, that I might learn of Your humble ways. I long to walk in humility and faith toward
