Bible Verse of The Day – 3-28-24

Psalm 46:1 (KJV) 1 God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.

I can’t count the number of times I’ve had to run to God to get help in my lifetime; to get answers, or some guidance. So many times, and I still do.

He has a way of settling us down.

When we are up in the air about something, His peace will give us rest.

His steadfast strength just fills us when we bask in His presence. Oh, how He will calm our nerves. He surely knows how to care for His child.

What a refuge He is for us all. He is sound, reliable, trustworthy and a continual help!

There are days when fear and exhaustion will overtake us, and we will want to lay ourselves down and stay there. He will be there at that moment to stand us up by His strength. He will save us.

Isaiah 35:3-4 (NKJV) 3 Strengthen the weak hands, And make firm the feeble knees. 4 Say to those who are fearful-hearted, “Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, With the recompense of God; He will come and save you.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-11-23

Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV) 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.

To keep something means to preserve it or maintain it in a specific state of being.

So, keeping us in perfect peace means that God will preserve or maintain us in a state of His peace in every situation that we face.

Who does He do this for?

Everyone whose mind is stayed (focused) on Him and who trusts in Him.

Have we been trusting Him lately? Or did we give up on the whole trusting thing when we got blindsided by something devastating?

Maybe our situation has changed drastically. Maybe we lost our job or took a major decrease in our income.

Maybe our health has declined, or our children are heading on the wrong path.

Maybe we just got tired of waiting on God and walking by faith, so we decided to take matters into our own hands, and now nothing is going as planned.

If we are willing to give God a chance to show up in our defense, and let Him do His thing, that peace will come back.

Our minds will shift from worrying, to focusing more on Him.

We will pay attention and be intently listening and watching for His guidance once again.

God wants to keep each one of us flowing in this beautiful peace. All we have to do is keep our minds stayed on Him and trust Him. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-4-23

John 1:18 (NKJV) 18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

One day as I was crying out to God, I had a vision.

In the vision, I was on my hands and knees. And as I asked God to help me through some things, I saw His hand hover over my back.

Out through my back and into His hands went all the heaviness and concerns that I was carrying.

I then saw Him roll me over into His arms, and I laid in them like I was sleeping. Then He pulled me into His chest/bosom and held me close! There I rested completely.

Nothing is too hard for Him. I say that from experiencing things I’ve seen Him do throughout my life and the lives of others dear to me.

I believe God gave me this vision so that I would realize how much He wants us to run to Him with everything.

The challenges of life will exhaust us, wear on us and cause us to grow faint if we don’t let Him do what He does best; Father us, carry us and love us.

I was so very encouraged by this. I wanted to share it with you in hopes that today you will let Him hold you and draw you in; that you would know you are loved more than you will ever know.

Your problems that look so tall in your eyes are teeny tiny to Him.

Let Him hold you today and draw you close.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-19-23

Mark 4:39 (NKJV) 39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.

These 3 words changed the outcome of the storm.

What we say and do when we face a storm will determine our outcome.

Jesus rebuked the wind and spoke to the sea. The wind ceased and the sea was calm.

Jesus knew what to do and what to say in that moment. He spoke the words necessary for the moment, and the storm ceased.

Will we remain calm enough in the midst of a storm to hear God and apply His Words to our situation?

When we have faith in God and we trust Him no matter what rises up around us, it is powerful! There is no storm, no change in our situation, no problem too big for us to face with Him in the boat with us.

If we are facing a sudden, unexpected change in our situation, or if a heavy storm has hit, remember the 3 words Jesus spoke; Peace, be still!

Have faith and trust God to bring the calm. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-18-21

John 14:27 (NKJV) 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Peace may be in short supply for some, as we all face various trials and tests.

Sometimes it may even feel hard to catch your breath.

We are here to tell you today that the peace you seek lies in one source; God Himself.

No person and no physical thing can give you the peace that God can give us.

To some this may sound cliché. To others it may sound like religious babble.

But it is, in fact, cold, hard truth.

For those of us who have walked through many difficult times that have been thrown at us by life, if we have held fast to God, we can testify to the fact that there is no peace like the peace of God.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

So, if your life is upside down and you’re struggling just to stay standing, hold fast to God.

Let Him hold you up and walk you through whatever you’re facing. Let Him put solid ground beneath your feet again. And let Him bring you out the other side with His victory.

Don’t bow to the enemy and let Him steal your joy. Bow, instead, before the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. And cling to Him.

Trials and tribulations will not claim victory in your life. Evil will not prevail.

Revelation 17:14 (NKJV) 14 These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”

So, if we’re “with Him”, we also cannot lose. We cannot be defeated.

Lift your eyes and fix them upon Him, the King of kings and Lord of lords. And let Him give you His peace.

Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-13-21

Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV) 3 You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.

Who will He keep in perfect peace? Those whose mind is stayed on Him!

In other words, those who don’t get distracted by the problems in front of them. Those who keep their eyes and heart fixed on Him.

Our trust in Him is needed if we want His peace.

Some say, “I’m not at peace with what is going on around me”. God says, keep your mind on Me.

Some say, “I’m not at peace with myself”. God says, keep your mind on Me.

Some say, “my family is all messed up. I don’t know how to handle it, and I’m going nuts trying to pull it together”. God says, keep your mind on Me.

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

There are a lot of people right now who have lost the peace that surpasses all understanding. Why?

Because their mind and heart are not on the Lord, but rather on the problems before them.

Sorry, but it doesn’t work that way.

Our minds have to be fixed on Him if we want His peace to work in our lives and help us to make the right decisions.

If we’ve left Him behind, we need to get back to Him.

Because If we left Him behind then we were not trusting Him. We were trusting ourselves.

There is never going to be His peace in that.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-3-20

Colossians 3:15 (NKJV) 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

What should be ruling in our hearts?

Anger? No. Jealousy/envy? No. Greed? No. Fear? No.

What then? His Peace!

If His peace doesn’t rule, then we are off.

We need the Peace of God ruling in our hearts.

How hard is it to get His peace to rule? It’s not hard if we really want it.

God will help us as we listen to Him and get rid of the chaos, the noise.

All the hustle and bustle need to go.

Chaos should not be near a child of God. We should be sound and peaceful, even in the middle of a storm or in the midst of a battle.

God’s peace will surpass all understanding. He guards our heart and mind from getting out of control and He causes us to move accordingly.

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

If we want His peace to rule today, let go of the things that are causing chaos. Listen to and follow His lead.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-24-20

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Do we suffer from anxiety? Do we wake up at night gasping for air, panicking over something that is weighing on our minds?

We’ve been there. It’s frustrating.

After struggling through a night of broken sleep, we do our best to go about our day and find some kind of peace. And then, out of nowhere, we’re reminded of our situation. Finding peace in that can be difficult.

But God’s peace surpasses all understanding. To surpass means to exceed; be greater than.

Sometimes when we are anxious or worried about something, we don’t want to hear about God’s peace. We want something done about the situation we are in. Peace is not what we think we need at that moment.

But, it is the very thing we need to have if we want to move forward and work things out.

We can not be moved by anxiety. We can not be moved by our fear. We can not be moved by a lack of understanding. We can not move forward without God’s peace.

The peace of God upon us will move us in the direction we need to go. It will guard our heart and mind and keep us on the right track.

God’s peace surpasses, or should we say, exceeds and is greater than all understanding.

Get God’s peace. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-28-19

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

The peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, is the key to a life that’s not constantly marred by stress and anxiety.

Once we begin to get this peace, we will begin to see our lives change in many ways.

But, the key to this is reaching a point where we live in this peace. How does that happen?

It’s all about trusting God. You see, as we learn to trust God more, we will begin to have more and more of this peace in our lives.

This is something that takes time and effort to make happen. It isn’t the result of someone praying over us, laying hands on us or prophesying it over us.

It takes a deliberate effort on our part. The funny thing, though, is that this effort can’t be directed at obtaining this peace. It has to be aimed at building our relationship with God.

Our relationship with God is the foundation of every other aspect of being His child. The strength of that relationship dictates how every other part of our lives plays out.

So, it’s critical that we make the effort and spend the time to build and keep our relationship strong. When that happens, our trust in God will grow. As our trust grows, anxiety, worry and stress gradually fade away into the background.

Spend time in His word. Make a deliberate effort to pray often, being sure not only to talk to God but also to listen to Him. Do what He directs you to do. And watch your life change as the peace of God permeates it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-17-19

Philippians 4:7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

No matter how much we try to prepare and make everything go smoothly, we all know that sometimes it doesn’t take much for chaos and confusion to show up and try to throw us off.

Some days we are ready and can handle what comes our way very easily. Other days we are moved quickly and distracted to the point where we get nothing accomplished and feel like we are walking in circles. Why is that?

One word; emotions.

Our emotions are a funny thing; they are up and down. It can be hard to keep them calm, collected and steady. It’s only through staying close to God that we will remain peaceful.

When we heed His voice, taking to heart what He says, it brings a steadiness in our thoughts and our reactions to things going on around us. It doesn’t mean we won’t freak out at times, but it won’t happen as much if we spend time in God’s word.

His word brings us peace, even in the most difficult changes or circumstances that we may face.

Give time to Him and His peace will be there for us.
