Word of Hope for Today with Ptr. Rolly
Custodio
The Lord Jesus is our Comforter (Part-1)
“He comforts us every time we have trouble.”2Co 1:4 NCV
Today’s Insight
Today’s Insight
Of all the names given to God in
Scripture, none is more consoling than “the God of all comfort, who comforts us
in all our troubles” (vv. 3-4 NIV). Notice the words “all comfort.” That means
there are no exceptions and no limitations to God’s comfort, no matter how
dreadful your circumstances. Comfort is God’s name and nature; it’s who He is
and what He naturally wants to do! You can’t get close to Him and not be
comforted.
Lack of comfort results from a disconnect
with God—usually the result of a faith deficit. Comfort comes by faith. You can
know intellectually that He’s the “God of all comfort,” but not feel comforted
because of your doubts. Jesus instructed the blind man who came for healing,
“According to your faith be it unto you” (Mt 9:29). “Knowing” needs the
addition of “believing” before you’ll experience comfort. Feeling follows
faith, not vice versa!
Suppose you’re taking your first ocean
cruise and have some concern about safety. The captain assures you he’s a
qualified veteran and the ship’s the latest version available, equipped with
modern communications and safety equipment. If, like too many Christians, you
refuse to believe him until you first feel the comfort, you’ll probably
disembark or spend the entire voyage unnecessarily sick with worry.
Application
But if you make up your mind to believe the captain’s word, you’ll soon
feel the lessening of
anxiety and the presence of comfort! Today, decide to trust the “Captain of our
salvation” who is Jesus and who promises to “comfort us in all our troubles,”
and you’ll experience the comfort He provides.
Today’s Prayer

feel and find the peace that surpassing understanding and guards their heart
through Christ Jesus for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
Prayer

bottom of your heart you are now saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16
