Bible Verse of The Day – 2-6-19

Mark 6:32 (NKJV) 32 So they departed to a deserted place in the boat by themselves.

Getting away from the everyday routine can often help us to come back with a fresh and renewed perspective. Many times it will give us a new outlook and ideas on things that may have been troubling or concerning us.

But, if you are like most people, you will put yourself on the back burner over and over again, doing for everyone else and not taking any time for yourself. This is not healthy or balanced.

It’s very important for us to get away and have some quiet time. We cannot keep going and expect to produce excellence if we are burned out. And that is exactly what happens. We get burned out, tired and bored.

Boredom is the worst. It is a killer. We were designed as humans to find contentedness, but not boredom. There is a big difference.

Bored – feeling weary because one is unoccupied or lacks interest in one’s current activity.

Content – being in a state of peaceful happiness.

Whether we are doing something we love or don’t love, if God is in it and we know we need to be doing it, it will bring a peaceful, content feeling. And we will find happiness in it because we know we are obeying Him.

Take time out here and there and make sure we are being refreshed every now and then.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-5-19

Nehemiah 8:10 (NKJV) 10 Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

No matter what comes our way, whether sorrow, sadness, mourning, good news, bad news, weeping, laughter or anything else, we all choose how we will react and how we will carry ourselves in light of what we face.

We can choose to be downtrodden and sullen, letting the weight of the things we face drag us down into despair.

Or we can choose to look beyond what we’re facing and let God lift us up above our situation, finding our joy in Him.

God has equipped us with emotions, feelings that allow us to express ourselves. But never did He intend for us to let those feelings drive us or rule us.

God wants us to look to Him and draw from Him in every situation of our lives, no matter how bad or how incredibly great it is, and let us find our strength in the joy that He brings!

Our lives should not be based on what we have, what we see, what we don’t see or what we lack. But based on letting God speak into our lives every minute of each and every day.

Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”

Let our joy be in Him, and His joy be our strength. Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-4-19

Psalm 55:5 (NKJV) 5 Fearfulness and trembling have come upon me, And horror has overwhelmed me.

Fear will stop us right in our tracks. It will cause us not to move forward.

But we can’t let fear overtake us. Be alert and watch for it. And when it starts to come on us, say no and rebuke it, in Jesus’ name.

So many people right now are stuck because of what fear likes to do to us. The enemy will use fear any chance he can.

This is why we need to be careful not to let our guard down. Stand tall and know that God is for us. He has the plan and the way out of any problem we face, as long as we seek Him.

Go after your answer; pray, watch, and listen. It will come along as we keep standing and trusting God. It will come and we need to make our move when it does.

Don’t just sit and wait for it to happen. Take what God puts in front of us to do and do it with all our might.

That means that if nothing new is happening, we keep on doing what we were already doing until we get a glimpse of something else. It means if we are feeling we need to make a change and something has changed right in front of our face, make the change. Go through with it.

God has a way of confirming what He wants us to do. And when He does, we need to move on it or nothing will happen.

What holds us back? Many times, it’s fear. It’s sad to say, but it’s true. Yes, fear will even hold back God’s children.

Will we be the one that says, “Yes, Lord”? Will we be the one that will say, “I will do it. I may not know what will come of it all, but I will go in faith and trusting you every step of the way.”?

Step out today and trust God. He will lead our every step.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-2-19

Psalm 139:14 (NKJV) 14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.

Has someone called us names, talked down to us, looked at us as good for nothing? Have they told us that we will never get anywhere or amount to anything? Have they looked down at us or made fun of us because of our appearance, or our intelligence?

Those words and accusations are not for us to take on or carry. We don’t listen to that voice. Instead, we shut it out and shut it down.

That voice is not allowed to have a say over us. Those negative words will not affect us or determine who we are. They will not define us.

Our Father of truth, Jehovah Jireh, will tell us who we are, and He says it best. We are all fearfully and wonderfully made!

Marvelous are His works, and we are all part of His work. No longer will we let those lies have a voice in our ears. Instead, we hold tightly to the words of truth, and we walk in them.

We are beautiful in God’s eyes. Know it today.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-1-19

Galatians 5:16 (NKJV) 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

Walking in the Spirit means taking what God says, such as, to be kind, be forgiving, be loving, be patient, etc., and put them into practice.

When a problem arises, or something doesn’t go just the way we thought it would, remember what God’s word teaches us to do, how to respond and what to say.

It’s not easy, we know. But when we let His Spirit teach us, we push down the ugly fleshly desires.

Walking in the Spirit takes practice, discipline and strength. Our Spirit man needs to be sharp and built up through the word of God, that we may be able to resist the wiles of the enemy.

Ephesians 6:11 (NKJV) 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

What is the whole armor of God? Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, God’s word. As we move in these, no weapon formed against us shall prosper. God’s Spirit will be right there fighting for us.

Isaiah 54:17 (NKJV) 17 No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord.
