When I have Jesus, I have something money can't buy, poverty
can't lose, no one can steal, death can't stop, the devil can't touch, and I
can't mess up. I have something success can't secure. Failure can't forfeit.
Popularity can't gain. Loneliness can't lessen. Winning can't win. Losing can't
lose. Demons can't deny. People can't produce. Fear can't conquer. Politics
can't control. Friends can't fracture. Enemies can't erase. The boss can't
break. Taxes can't take. Suffering can't suffocate. Affliction can't eliminate.
All the noise of the world can't drown out. And all the evil in the universe
can't keep down. I can win it all or lose it all. But Jesus is still my all in
all.

When I Have Jesus

The Success Problem
Life is full of people who have a great gift. And they use
it to achieve a level of success. It seems like they’re living a blessed life.
But eventually it all comes crashing down. And some of them get rediscovered,
and get another chance. And they start to use their gift again. And it starts
to work for them again. But they fall right back down again.
Why do people with such great gifts keep falling down? Because if your character doesn’t grow with your gift, that gift will crush you. Their problem isn’t a lack of success. Their problem IS success.
In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus said that doing what he says is like building your house on a rock. And when the storms come, the house doesn’t fall. But not doing what he says is like building your house on sand. And when the storms come, the house comes crashing down. You see, everyone has storms in their life. But not everyone’s life is built on a firm foundation.

Remember God’s Heart
1 John 3:20 says – Whenever our heart condemns us, God is
greater than our heart, and he knows everything. When John says that God is
greater than your heart, he’s telling you that God is greater than your
desires, your emotions, and your will. It was God’s will to baptize you into
Christ. It was God who justified you, declared you righteous based on the merits
of Jesus Christ. When you remember your past sins, however awful they may be,
you should not despair, but trust that God is greater than your past. When your
inner feelings weigh you down with guilt, God knows your full reality, and your
redemption. And His mercy and grace are greater than your self-doubt. When you
fear your own heart, remember God’s heart!
