Tag: Bible verses about doing what God’s word tells us to do

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-17-21

Matthew 7:24 (NKJV) 24 “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:

This verse illustrates the absolute necessity of following God and doing His will. That is, the things He tells us to do.

His Word will guide us. We just have to be obedient in our listening.

Most importantly, we need to have His word working and alive in us. How do we get His word alive in us?

We read it and take it to heart. We don’t just skim through the pages and read it like it’s a regular book. We let every word penetrate our heart, and let it do its thing in and through us every day. We try our best, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to walk it out.

For instance, have you ever had a scripture seem like it leapt off the page and spoke directly to what you were going through at that very moment?

That’s exactly how it works.

Now, we can ignore that this just happened and totally go on our way. Or we can acknowledge it and press in to God, and ask Him, “What is it that I need to do?”. And then we do it. That is God’s word alive in us.

We should be wanting to spend time in His word even more once we realize the power that comes through reading and obeying the scriptures.

They will feed us when we are hungry. They will bring healing when we hurt. They will comfort us when we are uncomfortable. They will give us wisdom when we are confused about knowing how or what to do in certain situations.

His Word will bring protection upon us when the enemy tries to destroy us.

Psalm 143:9 (NKJV) 9 Deliver me, O Lord, from my enemies; In You I take shelter.

The amazing Word of God is our guide for our lives.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-3-19 – IF

Please click to watch the video nowGreetings brothers and sisters in Christ! 

Have you ever thought about the word “IF”, and what it means to us as believers? 

Actually, it’s a pretty important word for all of us, despite its very small size. 

God uses if, and the principle of it a lot in His word. And its implications in our walk with Him are pretty important. 

Today’s video discusses this little two-letter word and how it’s used in the Bible. 

We hope you’ll take a few minutes and watch it.

Enjoy the rest of your day. 

Sincerely,

God’s word is the foundation that our faith is built on. It is true and unchanging. And it is what we should stand firm on in our walk with God. Our newest video discusses this topic.

In today’s world, it has become popular to pick and choose what we want to believe and what we want to discount as irrelevant or old-fashioned. But, God has not told us to do this.

It’s important that we stay close to God and accept His word in its entirety as the foundation and the guide for our lives.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-15-18

Mark 9:23 (NKJV) 23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Believing in what God tells us is the first step toward receiving. But there is more to it than just believing. We must not stop there.

Sometimes God will give what we need in steps. He may do His step first, then He may show us a step to take. Some things come in lots of steps. So, don’t lose hope. But be patient.

Patience is a big part of receiving God’s answers or plans for our situation. If we try to force something to happen, it will not turn out the same or be complete, the way it would be if we let God move on our behalf.

James 1:4 (NKJV) 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

So many times, God will show us what He would like to do in our situation. And if we are not careful, our first reaction will ruin God’s plan quickly. Why? Because we step out on our own and we try to do it all in the natural.

But there are things in the spiritual realm that need to be tended to first and foremost, and only God can show us what that is and how to do it.

We have to remember that there is an enemy, a devil, that roams around and wants to take us out. He wants to kill and destroy anything that’s good.

Just as King Herod was after the baby Jesus, he had all the babies killed. Why? Because something great and something GOOD was coming!!

The devil doesn’t like good. He moved through the heart of Herod and brought destruction to all those little babies. His goal was to kill Jesus, which would kill God’s plan.

Matthew 2:16 (NKJV) 16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men.

He will try and take out anything that is going to be good for us too. He is the enemy that we battle against!

We need the Holy Spirit to help us receive the things that God has spoken to us. He will help us to hold onto our faith. He will help us know the direction we need to go. And He will help us to keep our mind sound and focused.

There are a lot of people in the middle of a battle right now, tired and having no idea what step to take next. It’s not over for you. God is saying, “you will win if you surrender it to Me and listen. I will take you all the way.”

If this is you today, we want you to write or call us, and we will pray with you and stand in agreement for God to take you “the rest of the way through”. As you surrender it completely to Him, and follow His direction, you will come out on the other side of this war. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-7-18

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NKJV) 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Three little phrases; rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks.

Wow! What a serious set of instructions we are given here.

As we face the things in our lives that come along, we can sometimes feel alone, overwhelmed, defeated, and so many other emotions.

Rest assured, though, that we are never abandoned, despite how it might feel at times.

The thing we need to remember is that no matter what comes our way, we need to follow the instructions above.

We need to rejoice always. That means to rejoice even when we’re facing seemingly impossible circumstances. That’s not always so easy, is it? But if God tells us to do it, He also equips us to do it.

Pray without ceasing. This one doesn’t sound so tough. But do we do it? Hmm, not likely! But God shows us by his Spirit not only when to pray, but also how to pray. So, if we’re paying attention, He will prompt us and all we need to do is listen and obey.

In everything give thanks. Two simple words, give thanks. Now this one seems pretty basic. All we need to do is be thankful and express it. But there’s a really good chance that we probably don’t do this one all the time either.

We get busy. Or maybe we have an attitude because of the trial we’re facing. The last thing we feel is thankful. More than likely, we feel anger or frustration, and thanking God for anything is the last thing on our minds.

But once we get this one right, we’ll begin to see things differently. And the other two will come more easily to us.

So, remember, as we walk through the trials of life, rejoice always, pray without ceasing and in everything give thanks.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-21-18

Luke 11:28 (NKJV) 28 But He said, “More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!”

“Keep it”. Those two words are crucial.

“Keeping it” is the key to having a blessed walk with God.

Those who hear God, and keep what He says dear to them, will not stand still. They will always be growing, learning and moving forward. They will take action as God directs them through His word.

They will mature, they will build, they will take what He says and apply it to every aspect of their life. And they will be blessed!

When God speaks to us through His word, one way or another there is forward motion.

He will speak to our everyday situations. Hear what God is saying through His word today and keep it dear to us. Move forward in it and be blessed!

He is a GOOD God and faithful to deliver on His promises.

2 Timothy 4:18 (NKJV) 18 And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!
