Bible Verse of The Day – 8-8-17

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

Where is all of our time spent? Is it at work or on work?  If it is, our relationships will suffer, along with other things.

If all of our time is spent on our family and relationships, instead of our other responsibilities, other things will suffer as well.

When things get out of balance we will feel like everything is chaotic. We lose the peace that God wants us to walk in, and that can cause misunderstandings with those around us.

Keeping things balanced will open the door to a peaceful atmosphere, both in us and around us. It is a learning process and takes action on our part.

Are we willing to learn? Are we willing to do what needs to be done to keep things balanced? If we can answer yes to this, then we will find a better way in this life than the way it has been going for us and our family.

Life is a funny thing. We all need to be taught how to live the way God intended for us to live. Even Adam and Eve blew it. But God did not stop life because of it. Instead, He made another way.

We shouldn’t give up on our family, and we shouldn’t give up on our work because things aren’t working out the way we thought.

Press in, and let God help bring a healthy balance to it all. And as we do, we will see and feel the peace of God surround us.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-10-17

Deuteronomy 10:21 (NKJV) 21 He is your praise, and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.

Going through times and seasons that are out of our control should be a normal thing for those that are leaning on God. But no matter how much we want to make it a normal part of our lives, our flesh loves to have that control over things. We are in a constant battle with wanting to have control.

We think having control over things will bring peace. But, peace will actually come when we let God have control.

God is teaching those who will give all control over to Him how to walk in such a peace.

This doesn’t happen overnight. It takes some time to learn. But each time we give a situation, circumstance, or a problem over to Him, and just let Him unfold it, we will get better and quicker at going to Him with everything.

His faithfulness is greater than anything else. We just need to allow ourselves to see it by letting Him help.

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

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-4-17

Psalm 73:25-26 (NKJV) 25 Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that I desire besides You. 26 My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

Those busy seasons in our lives do come upon us at times. But if we spend the time we need with God, to sit, listen and rest, all that busyness won’t get to us.

You know that feeling you get  sometimes when it gets extremely busy? That overwhelming, get me out of here or I’m going to lose it feeling? God has a way of calming us right down and making that all disappear.

Just a little reminder today to make time for our MAKER. He will get us through it.

Our strength comes from HIM. Amen.

Happy day! You are loved and appreciated!

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-17-16

Romans 14:8 (NKJV) 8 For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.

This verse brings great comfort in knowing that we are the Lord’s, for those who sincerely and truly believe in Him. We are His!

While we live here on earth and when we pass on, we are His. While we are here, He will guide us, protect us, carry us, lift us up, help us and provide for US as we trust in Him!!

No matter what, we belong to Him. He will be there for us.

John 1:12 (NKJV) 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

Enjoy your day knowing that you are the LORD’S! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-26-16

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.

There’s a lot of stuff happening in the world around us. Sometimes those things can cause us to get distracted from our relationship with God. They can even cause us to begin to question Him or feel uneasy, because maybe we don’t understand it all.

It’s important that we not let the things that are happening distract us from our walk with God or lose our peace. Because sometimes we can get so focused on the things that trouble us, our walk with God can suffer.

We need to remember that our peace doesn’t come from the world or from our ability to understand everything with our intellect. And we also need to remember that as we draw near to God, He will draw near to us. And, in turn, our walk and our relationship will grow stronger and our peace will grow as that relationship grows!

And, as our relationship grows, these other things will become less of a distraction and will no longer cause us to question God about so many things.

It’s not wrong to have questions. But we need to understand that sometimes there will be no concrete answers that satisfy our intellect. So we need to learn to hear God and seek understanding by His spirit.

And when we do that, we will have God’s peace; the peace that surpasses understanding.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-27-16

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Have peace. Be of good cheer.

These very words were spoken by Jesus Himself, telling us that we can rest in Him, no matter what’s going on in our lives.

It’s important that we stay joyful in our lives, not letting the things of the world and the trials we face bring us down and cause us to be depressed or disappointed.

Life will throw stuff at us that can sometimes be pretty difficult to handle. And sometimes it can try to pull us off the path that God has set us on. It can play games with our minds, causing us to get distracted. And when we get distracted, we can become weak in our faith.

But Jesus promised us that He will give us rest when we’re tired, weary and heavy with the burdens of life. We don’t have to walk around feeling defeated and beaten down.

Matthew 11:28 (NKJV) 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Letting Him carry our burdens isn’t always the easiest thing to do, but once we hand them over to Him, our lives change for the better, since we’re no longer weighed down with cares and worries.

It can take some time for us to get used to the idea of handing our troubles over to Him, but once we get the hang of it, it gets easier and easier. And when we begin doing this on a regular basis, we will feel so much freer and more joyful than we have ever felt in our lives.

So let Him give you peace, and be of good cheer, for He has overcome the world!

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-11-16

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

When we are walking in the things God has for us, there is peace. It doesn’t matter what is going on around us, peace will be the proof that we are where we need to be.

Peace is what helps us push through those things even when we are feeling exhausted from the journey.

Peace is what will carry us when we have no idea of WHAT to do other than to keep on keeping on.

Peace will help us smile, when we want to cry or be angry because of the pain we feel, or the scars we carry.

Peace is what will cause us to reach out to help others even when we need help ourselves.

May God’s peace be with us no matter what we are dealing with today.

We love you and our prayers are with you each day. God is faithful!

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-18-15

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

As I sit at my desk this morning, on my wall is a plaque that says “PEACE.”

Things may be happening all around us in this world. Things that would like to steal our peace. But, as we stand together, praying for each other, seeking God in all we do, His peace is there for us.

Some may say “how do we walk in this peace when the world seems to be in a terrible mess? When our family member is suffering with addictions and diseases, and our finances are in turmoil? How do we have peace when our marriage is falling apart and our children are slipping away?”

It certainly won’t happen by someone saying “calm down, it’s not that bad.” That’s not going to help us because the truth is, sometimes it is that bad and very hard to face.

We can only calm down when we face the truth and allow the truth to speak to us, causing us to admit and realize that we need God to help us handle what we are facing.

When Caleb came back from spying out the land, he didn’t pretend what he had seen was not bad. He saw it for what it was. He knew there were giants in the land that they were told to possess, but he also knew God and His Mightiness!

He knew what they would be up against, but that they could overcome it with God’s help.

Turning a blind eye to what is happening around us, ignoring medical test results, or life-threatening situations is not going to make things any less troublesome. It won’t bring peace.

We have to face it, see it for what it is and then go after it.

Numbers 13:30 (NKJV) Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, “Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it.”

Acknowledging our battle and asking God for help will bring God’s peace, His understanding and anything else we need.

Peace be with us today.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-22-15

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.

Understanding. It’s the key to so many things.

The verses above tell us to be anxious for nothing and to let God’s peace that surpasses all understanding guard our hearts and minds through Christ.

There’s some very important instruction for us here, especially when it comes to trusting God, even when we might not understand everything.

God tells us to have peace that surpasses all understanding. This means that despite being in circumstances or going through trials that we may not understand, we can (and should) still have peace, even in the midst of those seemingly-confusing things.

We may face something that seems truly hard to swallow in the natural; the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a terrible disease in our life or the life of someone we know… there can be a huge list of things that we might face and that we don’t understand.

But, as we learn to trust God, He will give us peace despite the turmoil around us. We can have peace because of our walk with God and the assurance that we have that it’s all in His hands.

We don’t rely on the things of this world to give us peace. We rely on our heavenly Father, the creator of all we see.

And that is why it is called peace that surpasses all understanding.

So look beyond your circumstances today. Look past the chaos of the world. Look past the negativity of those around you. Look past the mockers and the naysayers.

And let His peace surround you and flood your soul.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-15-15

Romans 5:1-2 (NKJV) 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Peace can sometimes be hard to find. Our world is so full of chaos and strife. It makes peace seem almost nonexistent.

But as followers of Christ, we don’t get our peace from the world. We don’t get our peace from other people. Our peace comes from God.

As we grow in Christ, we learn to trust God with everything in our lives, including those times when we are faced with unexpected, stressful situations. In the natural, it’s easy to get stressed and become frantic.

But if we walk by faith, we will learn to look past what we see in the natural, and see things through new eyes, in the spiritual realm. Learning to do this will help us to lean on God and trust Him, no matter what we face.

It’s not always easy to do, but as we grow and mature as a believer, it gets easier each time. Eventually, it become almost second nature. And as we get better and better at it, the hard things we face have less and less impact on us.

2 Samuel 22:31 (NKJV) 31 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

Trust Him and let Him give us His peace.
