Through The Valley of the Shadow of Death

Life is an unstable path and has its ups and downs. As Sons and Daughters of God, you may think your path would be smooth, but it is not. First of all, you are in a fallen world, even though you're not of the world, a clear sign that the things of this world would stand against what you came here to do (ref.: John 15:18-20).


Being a person born again into the body of Christ, your Spirit is perfect before God, but your mind is transforming (ref.: Romans 12:2). With that you could live a life of unbelief that gets you into trouble.

As true Christians, by being in this world we experience trials, and through our faith in Christ Jesus, can get out of these trials. Sometimes, these trials could be so serious, that it appears God is not in the picture because it could be a case of your mistake through ignorance, and even acknowledging the mistake you make by coming humbly before Christ Jesus, you would expect He would show you a way out of the mess immediately, but the case doesn't look like it.

The truth is, Christ Jesus in His love, grace and mercy always shows us a way out of every mess we put ourselves into. But it may not be what we would expect. It may appear unrealistic and not see the sense in taking the path. But remember, Jesus knows all and sees all. He knows the end from the beginning and His ways sort and solve the mess once and for all. It's just what He does.

No matter what you go through, even if it appears as the valley of the shadow of death, just know that the Lord is with you and it is a phase you are passing through, and not a phase to remain in.

The Lord loves His children so much that His ways have, are and will always be the best way to do anything in life, as long as we trust and follow Him. This is why everyone born-again has the Holy Spirit to be led in the Spirit of truth. And as you follow His leading, you'll manifest the finished works of Christ Jesus.



Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
