Cure for Our Troubles

December 28, 2013

. . . preaching peace by Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all).
–Acts 10:36

Would it not be wonderful if we could find an absolute cure for the troubles of human nature? Suppose we could give a shot in the arm to the whole human race that would fill people with love instead of hate, with contentment instead of greed. Suppose, also, a cure could be found for the past mistakes, failures, and sins of mankind.

Suppose by some miracle all the past could be straightened out, all of life’s tangles could be unraveled, and the broken strings of life could be repaired. The most thrilling news in all the world is the fact that there is a cure! A medicine has been provided! The sin, confusion, and disillusionment of life can be replaced by righteousness, joy, contentment, and happiness. A peace can be imparted to the soul that is not dependent on outward circumstances.

Prayer for the day

In complete dependence upon You, Lord Jesus, let me relay Your message of love and peace to the desperately needy souls I meet.

Wow! How often do we let our outward circumstances or other people dictate the severity level of our difficulties! This serves as a great reminder! Thanks.

Father, thank you for sending your children into my life to tell me of your love, to teach me your ways, so that I could share your love with others.

Funny how Jesus blesses. Jesus brought a wonderful friend into our life 10 years ago. She has been there in rough times and times of joy,I have learned so much and felt so much because of Jesus blessing. Thank you Jesus from Mekka.

Always turn to God. Man's attempts at making a utopia on earth always result in misery.

Christ is the cure for everything and anything that ails us. Life's struggles will continue but how they are handled will change when you know Jesus Christ, as your personal Lord and Savior.

My JESUS, You are the God of hope, You are there to deal with my situation. I will bring them to Your feet. My Master, You said, "Now ye are clean through the Word, which I have spoken unto you." This is the pure "CURE" what I need....., Amen!

Annie says 12.28.2011, 07:19 a.m.

Your Word declares, "As many as touch You, were made whole." LORD, Our hearts desire is, to touch You, through the Holy Spirit, and our true heart worship. Thank You Lord Jesus, You have shown the way to receive cure. A million thanks..... Amen!

My Master, Lord Jesus, You said, " Ask of Me, and I shall give thee, the heathen for thine inheritance." LORD, I have heard You speaking to my heart, I want to do everything I can, to win the lost, for Your glory, in Jesus mighty name I pray, Amen!

I got blessed and refreshed reading the post above. Christ is still on the throne and his spirit uses the Word of God to blesses and encourages us in our Journey. He also uses believers to comfort one another in sorrow or in joy situation. Jesus is still with us.

This season should make us to know that He is the true and only God. He is the reason for this season.

Malachi 4:2 But for you who revere my name; the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings. You will go out and leap like calves released from the stall.

After living a life of sin and "it's all about me" for 55 years, I had a life changing moment and finally turned to God for everything. Life is so much more exciting and fulfilled since I put everything at the feet of God and have started living for him. I pray that I can reach others with the joy and fullfillment and peace that truly living for the Lord brings.

Vincent says 12.28.2010, 09:55 a.m.

Lord Jesus, please let me walk according to your Spirit today. Please give me victory over sin, confusion, and disillusionment as these are still present in my life. I choose you today, I believe in you and your loving kindness. Please bring righteousness, joy, contentment, and happiness in to my home. Thank you for your Word and the hope which anchors me. Thank you for the witness of your servants that encourage me. Please bring these to my family. I ask in your name, above all names Master Jesus.

For 60 years God has used this man with skin on to help millions. It's at our fingertips anytime we need it. I used to listen and thought “that's nice stuff but it can’t mean bad people like me”. God had a plan so His tears held me where I didn’t see. Why so slow God? You don’t care about me. I suffered for 58 years waiting, hoping - (believing - NOPE). My delightful, precious child, we've been waiting for you since We created the Universe and Jesus came to Earth with skin 2000 years ago. Friends, Trust in the only cure, Jesus Christ and know our Father is waiting for His perfect timing with you too so that your miracle will Glorify Him and your world will know He Is Lord.

Lord Jesus, thanks you for the peace you give to me and my family. Remind me daily to walk in your ways and allow people I come in contact with to immediately know I am a Christian.

Every one is searching for the cure and what a joy to know that the cure is in Christ Jesus alone.

Gerry says 12.28.2010, 05:27 a.m.

Christ's shed blood at Calvary is the only true and eternal way for mankind to find love and peace.

mick says 12.27.2010, 12:05 a.m.

This season should remind us of the true Cure.
