Word of Hope for Today with Ptr. Rolly Custodio 

The Lord Jesus is our Comforter (Part-2)
“As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you.”  Isa 66:13 NKJV


Today’s Insight

When you’re troubled, remember: 

(1) God’s comfort is real. Do you recall being sad or afraid as a child? And do you remember feeling the comfort of your mother’s presence? God’s comfort is even more real than your mother’s was then. “As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you.” God’s more concerned about you now than your mother was in your childhood. “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast…? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands” (Isa 49:15-16 NIV).

(2) The Comforter lives in you. When we’re suffering, God seems distant and inaccessible. But He’s not. Jesus resolved that concern for His anxious disciples—then and now. “I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever” (Jn 14:16).

(3) Scripture brings comfort. The apostle reminds us “that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope” (Ro 15:4).

Application

You can always count on God when you need comfort! The Holy Spirit who forever abides in you is closer to you than the air you breathe. He’s equipped, willing, and able to comfort you. He will sometimes do it by reminding you of a verse from a hymn, a line from a poem, a sermon you heard, etc. When He does, believe it. Say to yourself repeatedly: “The God of all comfort lives permanently in me!” When you’re down, you may not feel like reading the Bible. Do it anyhow. It’ll bring you the comfort you long for.

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word today. Lord thank you for giving and sending the Holy Spirit in my life who always comforts me.

The Lord Jesus is our Comforter (Part-1)

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

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

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word today. Lord thank you for giving me perfect peace in my life and experience the comfort that no one can give and it is you only Lord though we are facing challenges but you are there in my side to comfort me. Lord let your Holy Spirit comforts me and empowers me to do things that pleases you. Lord makes me an instrument of your peace and comfort so those who are looking for perfect peace and comfort that they may feel and find the peace that surpassing understanding and guards their heart through Christ Jesus for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
