Bible Verse of The Day – 10-20-16

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

Trusting God can give us rest. Rest from planning and trying to figure things out based on our own knowledge and understanding.

Let us not confuse resting with being lazy and unproductive.

Trusting God and resting in that which He tells us to do is a very good thing and healthy for both the natural and the spiritual man.

When God says “trust ME”, we can have peace, knowing that He will work on our behalf and He will guide us in what we need to do on our end. We will stop dwelling on those things that we have NO control over. We will stop trying to force things to happen. We will be OK with letting God do what only He can do and wants to do for us.

God wants to do the impossible for us. He wants us to experience HIM in a personal way, by leading us through challenges and difficult times and teaching us to see things through more than just our natural eyes and natural understanding.

Will we trust Him?

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-5-16

James 1:22 (NKJV) 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

If we just listen and never do anything with what we hear or learn, what good will come from it? Applying it is how we get results and see changes come; Good changes!

As we read God’s word, this is Him sharing His heart with us. The conviction we feel at times, even though it can hurt or make us squirm, is Him trying to help us. He’s showing us where we may need to change things up a bit. He is not condemning us for what we’ve done or not done, but simply showing us the truth of the matter and how to fix it.

It’s up to us to listen and then do it, not listen and then say, “well, I’m still a baby Christian, I need some more time for that one”.

We all have things within ourselves we need to be tending to and changing. And not one of us is better at doing it than the other. We all have to work hard and It takes constant effort for sure.

Let’s focus today on the things we know we need to be doing. And in the meantime, keep loving each other, because we are all working toward trying to get it right. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-22-16

Matthew 22:37 (NKJV) 37 Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.

Love God with everything!!  

How can we show God that we love Him? What makes Him pleased in us and the things we do?

When we simply obey Him. When we study and follow His word to the best of our ability, and let the Holy Spirit be our Helper and guide us through, one day at a time.

The Holy Spirit will help guide us on what to do, what to say and how to worship Him.

John 4:23 (NKJV) 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

God has equipped us with everything we need to love and worship Him with all that we are.

He is seeking us to worship Him!

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-15-16

Psalm 27:14 (NKJV) 14 Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!

Are we getting ready to make a huge move? If we can hold out and wait on the Lord, He will strengthen our hearts and help us to make the right choice.

Are we tired today, feeling like we are just done with it all? Are we stressed and worn out from waiting, and then waiting some more?

We may need to remind ourselves of all the other times that God was there for us and He answered our prayers.

This time is no different. It may be a little different situation, but He is the same God that helped us last time. And He will be there for us this time as well.

Be of good courage and wait!!

Don’t let anxiety take over and sweep us off our feet. It will distract us and take us down the wrong road, if we let it. Anxiety, or anxiousness, is a wearing out tactic the enemy loves to use on us all.

The Lord is faithful. Wait. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-5-15

Isaiah 55:8-9 (NKJV) 8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

It’s important to give God time, space and a PLACE in our everyday walk with Him.

We serve an awesome God! His plans and thoughts for us are more then we could ever imagine.

He is full of good, great and mighty ideas for us, beyond what we could ever think of.

We need to surrender our thoughts and our plans to Him and let Him take us places we have never been before.

Let us walk together in His greatness. He is good!! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-18-14

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Life is a funny thing. No matter how hard we try, we will never figure it out completely.

We can be cruising through it, thinking everything is perfect and then, suddenly out of nowhere, we get blindsided and everything is turned upside down. And we have no idea why.

Or maybe nothing tragic or catastrophic has happened, but we’re just trying to find our way through and figure some things out. You know, just the normal everyday stuff.

Well, either way, whether we’re in the midst of a crisis or just working our way through everyday life, we need to know that we don’t always have to understand everything or have it all figured out.

God moves on our behalf in ways that we would never think of. He isn’t stuck in a box, even though we try to stuff Him in there most of the time.

When God moves, He does what He sees fit to do, not what we think He should do. And even if we might have a situation that’s similar to something we went through in the past, God won’t necessarily do the same thing to help us this time that He did last time.

So if things aren’t making sense to you, or if you need a solution to a problem you’re currently having, trust God to work it out for you. Untie His hands and let Him move on your behalf.

It can be hard to take our hands off of things when we’re in the middle of a situation or crisis. Our minds just naturally want to try to figure everything out. But let’s learn to trust God and not lean on our own understanding.
