The LORD Himself fights for you - wow!
What a marvelous reality. If the Bible was not so clear in this, it would seem too much. God, Himself, fights for His people. God, Himself, is at work in our lives. Help us to believe and live in this and trust You more Lord!
God speaks and we believe
I don’t want to be one like Zacharias…”you did not believe my words which will be fulfilled in their own time”
I want to be like Mary…”blessed is she who believed, for their will be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord”
Pray! O how we need to be a people of prayer…more, better than we are. O how I need to pray more better than I do!
I want to be consistent in prayer
I want to be alert in prayer respond with prayer!
I want to be thankful in prayer
🎵O what peace we often forfeit…
Today, I find myself thinking how often I almost need to attach balloon’s to my thoughts…and let them be pulled above, thinking of heaven and the future. That seeing things with an eternal perspective changes everything.
Come LORD Jesus!
Colossians 3:2-4
God’s Word, the Bible, is right!
In a sin tainted world that messes up everything, it is delightful to rest on God and His Word. His Word is true, perfectly truth. He never says what He does not mean, He never promises what He will not fulfill, He is never wrong.
Thanks God!
Integrity can guide our lives!
How do we discover and walk in what God has for us? One help is integrity, righteousness.
Do the right thing!
Proverbs 11:3
The integrity of the upright will guide them,
But the perversity of the unfaithful will destroy them.
The real Christian life begins IN CHRIST, grows in CHIRST and thrives IN CHRIST
I want to WALK in Him - today, moment by moment with Him
I want to be ROOTED in Him - drawing all of my life from Him
I want to be BUILT UP in Him - growing, more in HIm
I pray that you and I know God’s will
God’s will is best for our lives
We can know God’s will
Knowing God’s will comes through wisdom. Knowing God and His Word
Knowing God’s will comes through spiritual understanding. God directs steps
Let us not cease to pray for this!
The Peace of God!
That rest, trust, tranquility that is God’s OF God
That which is beyond understanding, not through it
That which can guard our hearts and minds thru Jesus
LORD…I want this, I long for it more, deeper, more real.
I hold Your promise before You and ask for peace
I am one who has NO CONFIDENCE in my FLESH.
I am not good enough to earn heaven. My righteousness is spotty and tainted.
I am one who REJOICES IN CHRIST JESUS
I am soooo thankful for Jesus, He is my hope, my life, my joy. He is my expectation of heaven and my righteousness
I love God’s ways and want them!
God is working in the lives of His kids…faithfully
God is working in us to WILL, to want, to desire
God is working in us to DO, power, enabling power
God is working for HIS GOOD PLEASURE…what He has for us
Lord, I love this and want this.
Don’t be as stubborn as a mule!
Lord, help me not to be stubborn like a mule or as rambunctious as a horse!
Instead
Help me hear and heed Your instruction, Your teaching
Help me to know the ways I should go
Help me live under Your tender care with a responsive heart
Ps 32:8-9
As for me, I trust in the LORD!
Help me to trust You more and more
You are my God…and it is good to just speak that over all that life is right now.
My times are in Your hand
I would want them no where else!
life
Make Your face, O LORD, shine on Your servant!
Psalms 31:14-16
I pray that we grow in the love of God!
Love that is found in truth
Love that is discerning
This will help us approve good things
This will keep us from being an offense
This will help us be fruitful in right things, by Jesus, to God’s glory.
I pray this for me & for you today
Schemes accomplish what a curse can not.
How seriously we need to take the devil’s schemes! Expect them, be on guard and stand strong in the whole armor of God. If we do, we will be able to stand against the wiles (or schemes) of the devil.
Ephesians 6:10-11
Numbers 25:16-18
Find out what pleases God and do that!
Christian, we were darkness…now we are light in the LORD!
Joyfully, God’s plan is that this be fruit of the Spirit, not works of our flesh
May we be learning, growing, finding out what God has done and what pleases Him…and let’s do that
God means what He says and says what He means!
In a broken world, this is so good and comforting.
Every person we know and don’t know are sinners. They speak things untrue and need to repent.
But God is God and He is altogether perfect, unlike people
He says and He will do.
Today is Pentecost!
Today is a reminder of what is available to us as Christians - Power...enabling power from above through the Holy Spirit!
Lord, I need power, I need help! And with joy I seek what You have laid out for us...Holy Spirit fill me afresh!
Acts 1:8
