Bible verse of The Day – 1-24-18

Revelation 2:3 (NKJV) 3 and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name’s sake and have not become weary.

Hang in there today. Push through. Put one foot in front of the other and don’t look back. It’s a new day, with a new start, and God is for us! Amen.

We are not laboring in vain when we put God first.

When we obey God’s word, rather than doing what we want, we are setting ourselves aside and our hearts are humbled before Him as we carry on with His plan.

We have given up those things that we once considered to be ours, and placed them in the hands of our King, and we press on to serve our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

1 Corinthians 15:58 (NKJV) 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

All your hard work, your sacrifices, and efforts are seen. God knows our hearts. Keep moving forward.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-29-17

Matthew 9:20-22 (NKJV) 20 And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and touched the hem of His garment. 21 For she said to herself, “If only I may touch His garment, I shall be made well.”

Many of us know that there is something we need to do; a change we need to make.

We have been told and it has been confirmed over and over again. But we don’t do it. We freeze, afraid to move, even though God has instructed us to move.

We pray and we ask others to pray for us. We rebuke the fear, in the name of Jesus. And still, we don’t move. We hesitate. We procrastinate. We shrink back. And we cower down in fear. It’s almost like we want God to swoop down and move our feet for us.

But God doesn’t work that way. He tells us what to do. He will sometimes even show us how to do it. But if we aren’t willing to move and go after it, we will still be in the same place next week, next month or next year.

In the end, it all comes down to this: How badly do we want it? How much effort are we willing to put forth to get it?

The woman in the verses above risked everything to push through the crowd and touch the hem of the robe of Jesus.

She didn’t care what happened. She didn’t care what people thought of her. She didn’t care what people said to her or about her. She knew what she needed to do and she did it. She mustered up all of her strength and courage, and she pushed through the crowds to touch Jesus.

And the end result was the healing of a physical problem she had been battling for 12 years!

So, stand up! Push forward! Stop letting the voice of the enemy and the fear of the unknown keep you in captivity.

Press through and reach out for Him. All it takes is action on our part to set things in motion. And if we obey, we will get what God has promised us.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-19-16

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!

I was looking out my window this morning. I looked past the bare, naked trees, only to feast my eyes on the beautiful blue sky.  My heart was thankful for the pretty, sunny day we were having.

As I looked down again, and saw the nakedness of the trees, it almost changed my mood, causing me to think negatively.

But God showed me at that moment, that even though the trees look dead on the outside, what is really going on inside. They are fully alive, they are living and growing. They are being prepared to produce! They will soon be putting forth blossoms and beautiful leaves, making an even prettier picture.

You see, we sometimes forget that there is preparation time for a lot of things, before we get to see the actual beauty of it. Just because things may not look beautiful on the outside, it doesn’t mean that in their season or time they will not produce much beauty.

Be patient and wait. Don’t let the outward appearance of a situation cause us to start feeling negative and overlooking all the good that is taking place.

Be blessed. We love you all and our prayers are with you today!
