How Great Is Your FAITHFULNESS?

The Lord Appears to Elijah 10 He replied, "I have been very zealous for the LORD God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, broken down your altars, and put your prophets to death with the sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too." 19:10 Elijah thought he was the only person left who was still true to God. He had seen both the king's court and the priesthood become corrupt. After experiencing great victory at Mount Carmel, he had to run for his life. Lonely and discouraged, he forget that others had remained faithful during the nation's wickedness. When we are tempted to think that we are the only one remaining faithful to a task, we can't stop to feel sorry for ourselves. Self-pity will dilute the good we are doing. Be assured that even if we don't know who they are, others are faithfully obeying God and fulfilling their duties. ~LAB

Instead of looking to our peers for validation, we need to submit approval from the Lord's perspective, for He is the only one who matters! For GOD'S is NEVERENDING!

https://youtu.be/2iZzsrwf_aE An angel appears to Joseph (Matthew 1:18-25) During this time in history (probably written b/w A. D. 60-65), explained to the Jews/Christians by Matthew (Levi), just how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. Joseph changed his plans quickly after learning that Mary had not been unfaithful to him (1:19). He obeyed God and proceeded with the marriage plans. Although others may have disapproved of his decision, Joseph went ahead with what he knew was right. Sometimes we avoid doing what is right because of what others might think. Like Joseph, we MUST choose to obey God rather than seek the approval of others. ~LAB Imagine if Joseph didn't adhere to the angel?
