Bible Verse of The Day – 8-9-18

2 Peter 3:9 (NKJV) 9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

For many centuries people have wondered and asked why God is taking so long for Jesus to return. After all, the world is a mess. Morals have decayed terribly. Violence is at all-time highs around the world. And so many other things are happening that make the world a challenging place to live.

So why is it that God has kept His people waiting here on earth for so very long, having to endure trials and hard times?

Because He is patient and doesn’t want anyone to perish without the chance to repent.

This may make no sense whatsoever to our minds. It may be hard for us to understand. In fact, we may not be able to understand it at all with our intellect.

But as we learn to know and hear God’s heart, we will begin to understand it a little at a time.

As humans, we tend to get angry with what we see happening around us. This can lead to frustration and may even cause us to have feelings toward others that we know God doesn’t want us to have. This brings us to a place where we need to lean on God every single day, to guide us and teach us to live by the Spirit and not by the flesh.

There is also the very major factor of God’s plans and the things that need to be carried out before He can return. There are many things that He has spoken of through His prophets that must happen. Only He knows the timing of those things.

But one thing is for sure. When the time is right, God will bring everything into order. In due season, He will put everything in its proper place.

Galatians 6:9 (NKJV) 9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.

So, don’t lose heart and don’t lose hope. God is faithful to do what He said He will do when He knows the time is right.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-8-18

Numbers 23:19 (NKJV) 19 “God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?

We want to encourage you all today. God is God!

He is not a man that should say one thing and do something else. He sticks to His promises. He tells us what He would like to do for us. And then as we trust Him, He does it the way it needs to be done.

Look at Abraham and Sarah. They were very old. She was well past her child-bearing days. But, God said He would give them a child, and He gave them Isaac. He is faithful in what He says He will do.

Genesis 17:21 (NKJV) 21 But My covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah shall bear to you at this set time next year.”

As God’s children, we have to get used to things being done differently than how we might expect them to be done. But, don’t get scared that they will never come or that it won’t happen.

Don’t get negative or disappointed when we don’t see anything changing right away. Be strong, stand firm, keep trusting and thanking Him just the same. He takes what He says serious.

Matthew 7:9 (NKJV) 9 Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-5-18

Acts 2:21 (NKJV) 21 And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the Lord Shall be saved.’

God is speaking to us today. He is saying to call on His name.

If we are lost and in need of salvation, call on His name.

If we need healing or deliverance, call on His name.

If we are hungry and we need food, finances, or a bed to rest our weary heads, call on Him.

If we are in need of anything personal, call on the name of the Lord today.

He will save us.

We are all at different places in our journey. But if we call on the name of the Lord, He will meet us where we are at. He is a very personal God.

We are blessed to have such a loving, but yet firm and caring Father, who knows our every need and sent to us the answer to every situation that we will go through.

Call on His name today, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! His is faithful! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-13-18

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.

Walking in peace is something we all want to do. Sometimes it’s really easy. Things are going great and we feel peaceful and rested. Life is good! Amen.

But, there are times when things may get stirred up a bit. Things change, and it doesn’t take much before we begin to feel the heaviness that change can sometimes bring.

Life is going to come with some bumps in the road, some hurdles to get over, and its ups and downs. Everyone will face them at times.

We have to remember that even during those times, we can walk in peace. We just need to understand that “we are not alone.” We have Someone standing with us who is willing to help us carry the load and help us make the necessary adjustments. He will give us a shoulder we can rest our weary heads on.

Today, if you are in a season of change, don’t try to stand alone. We will lose our peace if we try to do it alone. Reach out and let God fill in the blanks with His direction.

We love you and our prayers are with you.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-10-18

Micah 6:8 (NKJV) 8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?

God has shown us, hasn’t He? All that He did for you and I is written in His word. He made it very personal, because He is a personal, one-on-one Father.

What was spelled out in His word stands forever. It is truth for us, for our children and for their children, etc., for us to grab hold of and walk in daily.

His love toward us is so deep and strong. His word tells it all; All the wonderful things He has done for each one of us.

Don’t let anyone try to tell us we are of no worth or value. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was sent to us through a virgin. And He ultimately gave His life for us at Calvary, so that we may become the sons and daughters of the Almighty God, through His righteousness.

Will we take Him at His word today and live in the promises He has for us?

What is required to obtain such Goodness?

Believe in Him, and love Him back by doing what is right. Love mercy and walk humbly with Him each day on a personal level.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-9-18

Psalm 57:2 (NKJV) 2 I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me.

Oh Lord, do you hear me down here? This is what we’d like to ask Him sometimes. We usually don’t, though, because we are afraid to address Him in such a manner.

But understand, God would want us to be respectfully honest with Him. He already knows what we are thinking and feeling.

One may say, “well, if He already knows, then why do we have to say it?”.

Because, it’s not for His benefit, but for ours. When we say something, or confess it with our mouth, what happens? We hear ourselves speak.

It’s important to hear what we are asking for, just as it’s important to hear what God is saying back to us. If we are a believer, a child of God, He absolutely hears our cry in that moment.

One day in the not-too-distant past, I was at the hospital. I kept receiving bad news regarding a family member. It was one thing after another. It was hitting me so hard, all at once. I had gotten to the point where all I could say was, “Oh Lord.”

But even in those two small words, God heard me. He knew what I needed and He answered my cry.

Don’t stop crying out to Him. Keep talking to Him. If we have questions, we need to ask Him. He is listening.

Don’t ever give up on Him answering us back. He is faithful, He is kind and compassionate. And He performs all things for us!

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-5-18

Mark 11:24 (NKJV) 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

One of the things people have the hardest time with is believing that God would actually want to help us in our situation. Maybe that’s why we try so hard to do things on our own and get stuck in a rut, because to think someone wants to helps us is almost unheard of these days.

People seem to all have their own problems, their own issues and their own life to live. This is true, but one of the things we need to remember is that God is God, a loving and very caring Father. He enjoys and truly wants to help us.

He will bring certain people around to be just that; a helping hand in time of need. It could just be a word of encouragement, or a word of wisdom. It could be a hot cooked meal, or a card containing a financial blessing.

We don’t know what God will do, or how He will do it. But we must believe for His help to come to us in the right way and the right time.

Believe God today. He wants to be the One to carry us through. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-26-17

1 Samuel 2:2 (NKJV) 2 “No one is holy like the Lord, For there is none besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.

Today’s word is “better days are coming”.

The past few years for my family it has been one thing after another. I am not complaining or ungrateful at all. God has been our provision, our escape and we have seen miraculous things happen right before our very own eyes.

But we have been through a lot of things that have been very trying and very tough.

It has been bittersweet at times. But the best thing is to know that whatever we were faced with, God was close by! He was right there with us.

Having such an Anchor standing with us when we were faced with hard news made it all much better. It kept us grounded even when our first instinct was to take off running from it all.

If you are going through a lot, we know how you feel. We are here with you.

We want you to know that you are going to come through this, and better days will come your way as you continue to press in to your Rock.

Our Lord God Almighty is our Rock. He will calm the storm for you! Amen.

​​​​​​​Psalm 107:29 (NKJV) 29 He calms the storm, So that its waves are still.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-25-17

Hebrews 13:1 (NKJV) 13 Let brotherly love continue.

Today, as we sit here to put another Bible Verse and devotional message together, we are reminded of how devoted each one of you are.

Our hearts are humbled and we are ever so grateful for the love we receive from you, our brothers and sisters in Christ!

Going into this year, we had some things we were facing; things that we needed God to make provision for.

He told us to trust Him when we stepped out 8 years ago. He told us to trust Him when we decided to do what we felt He was calling us into. Not knowing how it would turn out, we stepped.

We passed up job opportunities that would take care of us and bring security. We passed up living in areas we would love to spend time in. Instead, we said yes to God.

This changed us for good. We had no idea that on the other side of this computer, you would be there. You were there waiting, listening and open to God for what He wanted to say and do through you.

He has used you to help us in this faith walk. You have been obedient in your giving and your sowing, both in your time of drought and in your time of feast! You have stepped out and obeyed. And God took care of our needs.

Thank you for helping us. Thank you for listening and stepping out, and for following what God has put in your hearts to do.

Together we will continue to reach this world with the message of the hope found in Christ. We will bring His hope, peace and love. We will stand together and help people find the truth, as we found ours. Amen

Here is our heartfelt prayer today.

Dear God in Heaven,

Bless these dear ones who have been ever so faithful, diligent and consistent, not only in their giving but in their walk with YOU. We know that You have blessed them for their obedience more than we could ever do. We pray Your protection over them.

And we pray for a burning desire in them to keep growing, keep obeying and keep walking close to You. Help them to keep trusting that as You guide them to take new steps, they never look back. That they just move forward in this journey You have them on, knowing You will be right there with them.

And we pray these things in the precious name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen

God bless you all. We are here for you!

Love and tight hugs to all of you from the bottom of our hearts.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-20-17

Lamentations 3:22-23 (NKJV) 22 Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.

Sometimes we do things that we know aren’t pleasing to God. They seem like small things or they may seem like big things. Either way, they make us feel pretty bad.

Sometimes we carry guilt and shame because of the things we’ve done. We walk around with this on our shoulders. And sometimes the weight of it can be pretty heavy, maybe even to the point of making us feel like we might collapse under it.

But here’s the deal. That thing that we did yesterday, last week or even last year? It’s not ours to carry. God wants us to give it to Him. He wants us to confess it, repent and then leave it behind.

Why? Because He is compassionate and merciful. Forgiveness is His to offer to those who simply ask with a sincere heart. And His forgiveness is forever.

Each morning as we rise up, we are given a new day, clean and pure, to walk out God’s steps for our lives. It’s like a bright, white, pure sheet of paper with nothing on it. So why should we spot it up with yesterday’s sins and sorrows?

Give your guilt and shame to Him today. Let His mercies wipe your sins away and make you spotless.

Today is a new day. And just as this is a new day for you, His mercies are new for you also.

He’s offering them to me and to you. Take Him up on His offer.

He is faithful.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-7-17

Genesis 18:14 (NKJV) 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”

God spoke to Abraham and told him that his wife, Sarah, would have a son at the appointed time. Sarah had been barren for years, and now they were both old and well past the age of having children.

Do you feel like you are just chomping at the bit to get something done on your home, or save up to purchase a car to drive? Maybe you have been waiting for a spouse or for your children to change in their behavior.

Some people are waiting for things to change in their marriage. You are praying and believing God, but you feel like it will never change; it feels like it’s too late.

I want to remind you today of His appointed time and Whom your faith is in.

God is not going to leave you empty-handed. He will not turn His back on you, and He will not ignore you. Your prayer is not voided out.

He is God. He is forever and ever! He doesn’t forget what we have asked of Him, even if we haven’t seen any changes as of yet.

He won’t disappoint us. He won’t say “Oh, my dear child, you have asked me for so much. You met your quota and I cannot give you another thing”.

God is faithful. God is Good. He will remember, and you will get your answer as you stay steadfast in your faith. Sing praises to Him today, for in that appointed time He will meet your needs!

Psalm 57:7 (NKJV) 7 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and give praise.
