Dial Daily Bread

<x-tad-bigger>Dear Friends of "Dial Daily Bread":

</x-tad-bigger><x-tad-bigger>As we face the tumultuous events of the
last days of earth’s history, our Savior feels for us. He says, “Let
not your heart be troubled” (John 14:1). “I will fear no evil, for You
are with me,” says Psalm 23:4. What the Bible says is don’t give your
permission for your heart to “be troubled.” Choose to trust Him by
setting your will on His side; Satan cannot terrify you without
somewhere you give him your permission! Make your choice to believe.

“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is
the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” decides David in
31:1. We want practical, common sense counsel on how to control our
emotions in time of trouble. “Come unto Me,” says the Savior (Matt.
11:28). Saturate your soul with the story of His cross. The TV comedy
tells you to laugh your fears away but it’s a lie; we’re living in the
great Day of Atonement when peace of heart comes through
serious-minded fasting and prayer. But genuine faith always lifts up
the heart with a joy that actually triumphs over your emotions. Your
soul sings, “I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I
would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living” (Psalm
27:13). Let your soul feast on the psalms that tell of Jesus’
struggles with the temptation to be afraid and to doubt (22, 40,
69--many). He overcame!

Immense Good News is yet to flood the world with light even though
evil is everywhere, for “another angel” comes with “great authority,
and the earth [is to be] illuminated with his glory” (Rev. 18:1). His
message will be “Christ and Him crucified” for Jesus said that when He
“is lifted up” (that is, on His cross), He “will draw all men unto
[Himself]” (John 12:32). Not all will let themselves be “drawn” but
all will sense the drawing. You do, don’t you?
