About the power of God upon you…

Matthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will find it. (NIV)

In ways you cannot always know or understand, your choice to follow Jesus and bear His cross was made as part of His work in your life. Each minute you are alive, the hand of God is upon you. When you suffer greatly, when you think you cannot bear His cross any more, call out to God, for He hears you and He will come to your aid. The power of God is upon you this minute. The power of His name on your mind, heart, soul, and lips activates His blessings and gives you His strength to endure all things in His name. You must surely know in your heart of hearts that God loves you beyond any way we have of describing love. You must surely know in your heart of hearts that God's compassion, mercy, and grace flows over you this minute. You have been chosen by God to be His special child. You have been selected by God to be His special shining light to the world around you. Obviously, you can turn away from God's presence and defame His choice for your life. However, when you say "Yes" to Christ, the angel warriors are standing guard over you. Even in the darkest hours, God will be with you and will not desert you. When you want to be taken away from your suffering, God will remind you of how vital you are to Him in the here and now. He will remind you that you must be patient and endure all things. He will also remind you of how much He loves you.
