Bible Verse of The Day – 8-8-24

Psalm 37:39 (NKJV) 39 But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is their strength in the time of trouble.

Are we feeling weak and empty today? Is our strength gone? Are we tired and at a loss for words? Are we worn out and heavily burdened?

Here’s something to hold onto! Our salvation is from the Lord. We may be battle weary, but we are not defeated.

He will meet us right where we are in this hour.

What are we dealing with today? Is it too hard to even begin to explain?

The Lord is our salvation and strength! He can pick us up and turn this whole thing around. He will do the impossible, the unimaginable, and the unexpected, just to help the righteous.

We can rest assured that in our greatest despair He will be doing a new thing.

Isaiah 43:19 (NKJV) 19 Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert.

Hold fast to Him!

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-20-24

Psalm 73:26 (NKJV) 26 My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

As humans, we are inherently weak and feeble.

Our flesh is fickle and prone to failure. On our own, we can do nothing.

This is not an opinion. It is a fact that the Bible reiterates many times.

The Apostle Paul, despite all that he accomplished. spoke of being disappointed in himself when his flesh was determined to do one thing, but his spirit wanted to do the right thing.

Romans 7:15 (LSB) 15 For what I am working out, I do not understand; for I am not practicing what I would like to do, but I am doing the very thing I hate.

Similarly, David was not afraid to admit that his flesh failed him. He knew it.

He was not proud of it. But he was humble enough to readily admit his failures and own up to them.

It was in this that he found strength in God.

In the opening verse the word, strength, is translated as rock. God was the rock that gave his heart strength.

Despite his failures, David is still someone we can learn a great deal from, especially when it comes to drawing strength from God during times of weakness.

And just as Paul confessed his battle with the flesh, let us also confess our struggles to God and allow Him to strengthen us in times of weakness.

He alone can give us strength when our flesh fails us.

Bible Verse of the Day – 6-11-22

Psalm 18:32 (NKJV) 32 It is God who arms me with strength, And makes my way perfect.

How often do we try to be strong, but end up breaking down or falling apart because we just can’t handle it anymore? It’s too much for our natural man.

We were not made to be strong on our own.

God will arm us with His strength. He will make sure our way is perfect if we humbly go to Him for help and trust Him.

Do we need His strength and our way made perfect? Cry out to Him.

If we are heading into battle, we don’t go in alone. We make sure we are armed with God’s strength. We can trust that our way will be made perfect if we let Him lead.

Psalm 31:3 (NKJV) 3 For You are my rock and my fortress; Therefore, for Your name’s sake, Lead me and guide me.

He is our ROCK and our Fortress! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-12-19

Psalm 9:10 (NKJV) 10 And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; For You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

How hard is it to get out of bed and start our day with Joy in our hearts and a beat to our step?

How hard is it to rejoice knowing that this is the day that the Lord has made?

How hard can it be sometimes to love on someone when our own situation keeps pulling us down?

It can be very hard if we try to do this on our own strength.

We can’t do what God has shown us to do on our own. We don’t have what it takes. Our emotions get in the way. Our pain and suffering tell us to do something else.

We walk the path God has for us, by what? By His Spirit.

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

If we don’t walk by the Spirit, the strength, discernment and understanding we need to carry this out is NOT there.

We can’t kid ourselves today. We live in a real world with real problems. We live in a place and around people that can make things very hard for us at times.

Don’t even think for one second that God has asked us to stand alone. Don’t think for one second that He has left us to take care of these situations on our own.

He will give us JOY, even in our trial. He will give us a song to dance to on the hardest days. His love will carry us through and we will rejoice as we put our trust in Him!

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-25-14

Ephesians 6:10 (NKJV) 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

Every week we receive emails, and sometimes phone calls, from people who are struggling or going through trials and tough times.

And although we are pastors, and we teach God’s word and encourage people on a daily basis, we are not immune to some of those same trials. We all face things from time to time that try to knock us down and keep us from moving forward with God.

It’s because we have also gone through trials that we have learned how to press in to God and be strong in Him when our own strength seems spent. It’s because we have gone through hard times in many different ways that we can empathize with all of you and relate to where you’re at, and offer counsel based on our own experiences.

And it’s because we have walked through these hard times and come through them victoriously that we can tell all of you to be strong in Him and in His might.

You see, when we have been knocked down and our face is in the dirt, it’s then that we need to realize that God is the one who gives us what we need to push through and keep going.

Our own strength is limited and will run out after a while. But His strength will never fail us. He will never abandon us or leave us to wither and die.

It’s when we’re at our weakest that we need to look up and reach out to Him and grab hold of Him with everything in us, and draw our strength from Him.

2 Corinthians 12:9 (NKJV) 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness”…

It’s when we’re at our weakest that His strength shines, if we let it!

So we encourage you, no matter where you’re at right now, in this moment, to hold fast to your faith, and never let go.

Hebrews 10:23 (NKJV) 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

Maybe we can’t do this. At least not on our own. But we can do it with God’s help, if we don’t let go of our faith.

Let’s hold fast to our faith!

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-10-15

Psalm 119:28 (NKJV) 28 My soul melts from heaviness; Strengthen me according to Your word.

We all need God’s strength to get through each day.

I remember one day, being alone, laying on my living room floor. I was crying very hard because of what we were going through and dealing with at that time. There was not an ounce in me that knew what to do about it or how to fix it. I felt helpless and lost, sobbing like a child, just looking up at the ceiling.

I looked beside me and in a split second I saw Jesus. He had a slight smile on His face and said, “It’s going to be alright.”

He comforted me in my moment of despair. He was ever so gentle with the softest spoken words. The smile on His face touched me in such a way, it took away the guilt I was feeling for mistakes we had made, and it gave me hope.

He didn’t tell me how it would be done. But I knew in that moment I had been strengthened to keep going and to trust Him in whatever needed to take place.

Just one touch from Jesus and He will change our attitude, bring us hope, bring us peace and the strength to pull us through.
