DAY 121 - God has power to do what He has promised



Today’s Reading: Romans 4

Please read Romans 4: 1 – 25 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method please read my “Count Down 5” from this blog. You may click this link directly for the method: Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf . (You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.)

Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. Romans 4:20-21


Jesus is so wonderful! Before I turned the Bible to Romans 4 to have my daily devotion, I looked at the day of my post today and it is DAY 121. Then Jesus reminded me of Psalm 121, one of my most favorite psalm in which I had an important encounter with Jesus in August 1990:

I lift up my eyes to the hills where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121: 1-2

My body is shaking and tears are pouring down from my eyes now as I read this:

Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. Romans 4: 20-21

Praise the Lord that He talks to me in a very special way. So many times I have wavered and fall into discouragement and bitterness but whenever I can lift up my eyes to Jesus, my help comes! Thank you Lord Jesus Christ!


Dear Lord Jesus,
I praise you for this wonderful experience this morning. Help me to focus on you and be strengthened. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
