Shaken But Not Stirred- October 15, 2021

 

Morning by Morning, October 15 - Shaken But Not Stirred

Good morning, Lord Jesus. In the sovereign place of Your will and the certain embrace of Your love, I trust in You and rest in You, as I begin my day grounded in Your Word and filled with Your Spirit. ...

“For the mountains may depart
    and the hills be removed,
but My steadfast love shall not depart from you,
    and My covenant of peace shall not be removed,
    says the Lord, who has compassion on you” (Isaiah 54:10)

Out of the deep compassion of Your mercy and grace, Your “steadfast love” and Your “covenant of peace” will never falter and never fail. They’ll never depart and never be removed. Even when it feels like the mountains are shaken and the hills are trembling, You are our Steadfast Security, our Strong Tower of Certain Hope.

If fact, we shouldn’t be surprised by the shakings and trembling of the world around us. Sometimes what we think is Satan is really our Savior -- shaking up what needs to be shaken up, exposing what needs to be lighted up, pruning away what needs to be cut off, carry away, and consumed in Your Holy Fire. 

As Your Word reveals to us and warns us to prepare us for these very times: 

“See that you do not refuse the One who is speaking; for if they did not escape when they refused the One who warned them on earth, how much less will we escape if we reject the One who warns from heaven! At that time His voice shook the earth; but now He has promised, ‘Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heaven.’ This phrase, ‘Yet once more,’ indicates the removal of what is shaken -- that is, created things -- so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us give thanks, by which we offer to God an acceptable worship with reverence and awe; for indeed our God is a Consuming Fire!” (Hebrews 12:25-29)

Come, Holy Consuming Fire of God! Come burn everything out of me that needs to be cut off and carried away and consumed. Come shake off of me everything that’s no longer to remain. As You’re doing it in the world and the times around me, do it in my heart and soul within me.

For this “kingdom that cannot be shaken” is also a kingdom within me -- the territory and domain of my heart and life where You rule and reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. As You said, “The kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21 KJV). “For the kingdom of God is ... righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit” (Romans 14:17).

No doubt our spiritual enemy, “the thief (who) comes only to steal and kill and destroy,” is at work trying to stir things up (John 10:10a). But at the same time, our Savior and Sovereign Lord is at work shaking things up so that we “may have life, and have it abundantly” in Him alone (John 10:10b). So we’re shaken but not stirred, as we remain steady in Your love and confident in our faith.

Lord, give me grace to endure the enemy’s stirrings and Your shakings -- without fear and full of faith. “For all the promises of God in (Jesus Christ) are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us” (2 Corinthians 1:20) So I’m eternally counting on Your Promise that eternally assures me Your steadfast love and Your covenant of peace will never depart and never be removed. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

My Friend, may you be secure and confident in the One who is whose steadfast love and confident peace will never depart and never removed through all that's going on in our world from whatever source, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!
