God of comfort - Bro. T. Stephen

Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given you today is from the book of 2 Corinthians 1:3, “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort”. Jesus will not leave you as orphans; He will be with you and will comfort you.

Sometimes, God allows you to go through difficult times. Through this, God wants you to learn to trust and rely on Him for all your needs. When you fix your eyes upon Jesus, you will be encouraged by the counsel you receive from Him. You will be comforted and will also have peace in your heart. We see in the book of 2 Corinthians 1:4, “God comforts us in all our tribulation that we may be able to comfort them who are in trouble”. Our God is a God of comfort. He comforts you when you are distressed. Likewise, you will also be able to comfort those who are in need of comfort.

Finding comfort in times of trouble relieves you from all your worries. The Lord will wipe away all your tears. Do not be troubled my child. Isaiah 40:29 says, “He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak”.  God will strengthen you when you are weak. He loves you and He cares for you. Trust in Him for all your needs.

I would like to site an incident from the bible where Jesus comforts the weary. Jesus comforted Mary and Martha over the death of Lazarus. Mary and Martha loved their brother Lazarus very dearly. They could not bear the loss. They kept weeping. That was when Jesus comforted Mary and Martha. God moves with compassion and comforts those who are weary and weak in their spirit. One word of encouragement is enough to enlighten your day.

When Jesus could comfort all these people and rejuvenate their lives, will He not comfort you? Jesus the Father, sees your pain and your worries. He will comfort you my child. Be encouraged in the Lord. He will surely comfort you, for He is the God of comfort.

God bless you.

Prayer:

Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord, there are many children who are weak and weary in their spirit. I do not know what their problems are; but Lord, You know each and every desire of their heart. Father I pray that You may send forth Your word and comfort them. Fill Your dear children with gladness. In Jesus name we pray,

Amen.
