Deuteronomy 26:6-9King James Version (KJV)
6 And the Egyptians evil entreated us, and afflicted us, and laid upon us hard bondage:
7 And when we cried unto the Lord God of our fathers, the Lord heard our voice, and looked on our affliction, and our labour, and our oppression:
8 And the Lord brought us forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand, and with an outstretched arm, and with great terribleness, and with signs, and with wonders:
9 And he hath brought us into this place, and hath given us this land, even a land that floweth with milk and honey.
Dear Friends,
The year 2016 is drawing to a close. As with years past 2016 brought its share of joy and sorrow. There was evil that entreated us, afflicted us and sometimes we were bound by trouble.
Still we have the blessed assurance that when we cry out in earnest to God, He will deliver. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8)
His mighty hand, His outstretched arm is with us each day. It is with countless signs and wonders that God reminds us that it is He who leads us.
"Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture." - Psalm 100:2-3
We are God's people. This we know for sure!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
