My Focus Is On God’s Keeping Power!

Keep - To obey; to keep in focus with the eyes; to observe; to give uncompromised attention to; to guard; to fulfill a responsibility; to pay attention to.
Keeping - To watch over, to guard!
Perfect Peace - Shalom - Completeness, Soundness, Welfare, Peace!
God has an obligation through His Word that because you have been awakened to knowing He Dwells within you, and you are consistent in The Knowledge of Him, knowing He cannot lie, you are resting in His Power and His Might, then you have to realize that God has full responsibility of your future! “He knows what He thinks towards you, plans to prosper you and not harm you. . . “
When you have become awakened to the Keeping Power of God, you will realize that I Smile because I know that God Is Keeping Me, even in this! Regardless of what circumstance you may be in right now, The Eye of God is upon you, and He Is Keeping You in the midst of it!
His Eye - The Bible says in Deuteronomy 32:28 “For they are a nation void of counsel, Nor is there any understanding in them.
When your focus is on the problem, not the Keeping Power of God in the problem, then you will not understand that “All Things Are Working Together For Your Good!” Because now your own thinking has convinced you into believing that “It Is Always Something. . .”
But you must be reminded, and I have been commissioned to declare this to you, that regardless of the trial, temptation, or persecution, You Are Good Because God Is Keeping You!
You Are The Apple Of His Eye - What does this mean? God has not turned His Face from you, He is keeping you because you know that He is in you, and through His Son, He sees you as He is, in the Earth!
Greater things will you do, says Jesus The Christ! Christ is seated in His Rightful place, you are here in the earth, but not of the world because God has empowered you with His Keeping Power; therefore, you have already overcome, you have already gotten the victory, you just need to remain “Locked In” to the Keeping Power of God and do not be persuaded by the trials of this life!
Proverbs 11:14 Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
Counsel is advice, direction; God has sent His Only Begotten Son, and because you know Him, you have been given directions to continue on, even in the midst of the persecution you may face!
God said; “I Will Repay. . .” Not you! Just be thankful that you have the ability to smile in the midst of calamity, why, because God Is Keeping Me!
When we allow the world to conform us, we become foolish and unwise in our direction, we seem to be falling because we are no longer allowing the multitude of counselors God has given us, to remind us of His Keeping Power and that He keeps us safe, regardless of the circumstance!
The people of God could not realize His Keeping Power, they were so warped by being wise in their own opinion, they chased after other gods! But even though you may feel as if your way is lost, it is not because God has not forgotten about you, you just need to consider His Word!
Deuteronomy 32:6-7 (NKJV) 6  Do you thus deal with the LORD, O foolish and unwise people? Is He not your Father, who bought you? Has He not made you and established you? 7  "Remember the days of old, Consider the years of many generations. Ask your father, and he will show you; Your elders, and they will tell you:
When you consider all things that you have encountered, gone through, and overcame, you must realize that thru all of that, God Kept Me From Losing My Mind Up In Here!
Truth be told, many times you thought to do the unthinkable, but yet The Power Of God Kept you from giving into the anger, the sin, the temptation. . .
Yes, we all have made mistakes, and have come short of His Glory, but that was then, this is now!
I have been awakened to The Keeping Power of God! I do not take His Grace for granite; regardless of what state I am in, I have learned to Praise Him and give God all The Glory! I am obligated to Worship Him, I am obligated To Honor God in all my ways for I’m Good, Only Because God Is Keeping Me!
So I put the enemy on notice today; it does not matter what I encounter in this life, I Am Good, Because God Is Keeping Me! He is my Guard; in the front, the back, and all around, He has encircled us and His Face is towards us; therefore, His Keeping Power is with us always, no longer do I say; “It Is Always Something. . .” I now realize that with God, It Is Always Something Good!
For I realize that because my mind is Locked In on Him; His Ways, His Precepts, His Power and His Purposes; I cannot fail, I cannot be destroyed; I realize now that God has given you and me something that this world cannot take! JOY - For The Joy Of The Lord Is My Strength!
Because my Trust is everlasting, so I do not waver because of the roaring storms, I do not give in because of the intense heat of the persecution that befalls me; I will trust in The Lord, I will wait upon Him, for in due season, God will manifest the harvest that He has prepared for you and for me!
Isaiah 26:19 (NKJV)19 Your dead shall live; Together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; For your dew is like the dew of herbs, And the earth shall cast out the dead.
It may seem like you are in a season of drought, but God is keeping you! You may feel as if you are in a season of calamities, after calamities, but God is keeping you! Do not allow the world to conform your thinking, but transform the world because you have renewed your thinking and realize that God has brought you pass your past and His given you Grace to carry on!
Isaiah 26:1–4 NKJV
1 In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: “We have a strong city; God will appoint salvation for walls and bulwarks. 2 Open the gates, That the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in. 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. 4 Trust in the Lord forever, For in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength.
Arise, praise God from Whom all blessings flow, give Him all The Glory for He has empowered you and endowed you with Power; He is Keeping You because He has established a Peace that will surpass all understanding!
They cannot stand you because they realize that you are rising above their tricks, so do not come down, you keep rising because Jesus Arose. . .
