Bible Verse of The Day – 6-29-24

Colossians 1:3 (NKJV) 3 We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you…

You are on our heart today.

We hope you know you are not alone. And that you know you are loved.

Know that even if you are feeling down, you have Who it takes to get you back up. God is on your side.

We may not be feeling like we are doing good. Maybe we have failed again. God sees your situation and He is willing to pick you back up if you will reach out your hand to Him.

We are standing in agreement today for God’s will to be done in your life.

The enemy wants you to stay down and wallow in your imperfections as he pummels your mind with guilt and doubt.

Reach out your hand and our Father will meet you right where you are today.

We are praying for better days ahead for you.

Have a blessed day in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-27-24

Isaiah 43:16 NKJV) 16 Thus says the Lord, who makes a way in the sea And a path through the mighty waters…

The Lord is saying, this is Me, the One who will make a way for you today!

How many of us are having a hard time?

Maybe things have changed and our situation is looking bleak.

This past year has taken its toll on us all.

We need a God-given path through the sea and the stormy waters. We need to get to the other side and leave it all behind, welcoming the fresh new start ahead.

We can relate. We feel your struggles and know the sorrow you’ve been through. It does feel good to know we are not alone on this journey.

Thus says the Lord; He makes a way in the sea and a path through the mighty waters.

That is our word for you today!

What He says, He will do!

What is He saying to you, what promise has He given you?

Hold on, stand firm and don’t stop believing.

He will make a way!

Amen

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.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-16-23

John 18:26-27 (NKJV) 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off, said, “Did I not see you in the garden with Him?” 27 Peter then denied again; and immediately a rooster crowed.

I would not want to have been Peter when he heard that rooster crow.

I can’t even imagine what he must have felt in that moment.

Peter denied Jesus three times.

Three times he was asked if He was with Jesus. And each time, he denied knowing Him; the same disciple who told Jesus he would lay down his life for Him.

John 13:37 (NKJV) 37 Peter said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will lay down my life for Your sake.”

In his heart, he really meant what he had said to Jesus. But when push came to shove, he didn’t have what it took to do what he said he would.

I believe Peter’s eyes were opened, allowing him to see himself when he was faced with such situations as this one.

Maybe some of us have made sincere statements, and then we failed to keep them. It’s human frailty.

Our intentions are good. But to keep them or follow through with them it is a whole other story.

It shows us all that we need the help of the Holy Spirit. He will give us the strength and discipline we need to stay true to our word and our convictions when we are faced with difficult circumstances.

John 20:22 (NKJV) 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Peter is an example for us, not so that we look down on him for his denial, but to learn and see that it can happen to any one of us. We can truly mean what we say, but our actions will show us what we are really made of.

The Holy Spirit will give us the power we need to overcome our own weaknesses and prevail in those circumstances when we would otherwise give in and deny the truth and all that we know to be right.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-1-21

Nehemiah 6:1-4 (NKJV) 6 Now it happened when Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall, and that there were no breaks left in it (though at that time I had not hung the doors in the gates), 2 that Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, “Come, let us meet together among the villages in the plain of Ono.” But they thought to do me harm. 3 So I sent messengers to them, saying, “I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you?” 4 But they sent me this message four times, and I answered them in the same manner.

Nehemiah was a warrior. He loved God and stood firm to serve Him, even in the face of extreme adversity.

As Nehemiah worked feverishly with others to rebuild the wall around Jerusalem, he was threatened numerous times by people who hated him and those who worked with him because of what they were doing. They wanted badly to see them fail and would go to great lengths to try to make that happen.

They tried everything they could think of to get them to stop; threats, physical attacks on them, and even so-called “diplomatic” meetings.

But take note of what Nehemiah did; he blew them off, knowing in his heart that they intended to harm him.

There are important lessons for us to learn in this.

The enemy will continually attack us, try to scare us, threaten us and taunt us in an effort to get us to cave in and back down from standing for God’s truth.

As Nehemiah did, we need to be sure to stand firm, even when it means taking hits and feeling extreme pressure.

It may not be comfortable or easy. But remember what Jesus did for us.

Ease and comfort were never promised for us when we chose to become a child of God.

Joshua 1:9 (NKJV) 9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-13-19

Colossians 3:23 (NKJV) 23 And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men…

No matter where we stand today, in this moment of our life, if we do what we are doing as unto the Lord and not unto men, nothing that man tries to do to us will stop us. We will give it our all and not even look back.

This is a good reminder for those that are in a position where they simply can’t stand one more day of abuse under their supervisor, or any other type of authority. If we are feeling mistreated and we want to quit, remember what we do and Who we do it for. God will get us through this as we do our work unto Him.

There is no way we should to give up because someone is trying to beat us down, bad-mouth us, or make us look like trouble makers.

He will set us free in the right timing and in the right way. Stay steadfast until He releases us.

This is not easy for us to do, and can be very stressful at times. But know that as we continue to persevere, God is faithful to move on our behalf in His timing.

Hebrews 13:6 (NKJV) 6 So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-7-18

2 Timothy 4:7 (NKJV) 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

We are survivors, through Christ!

We don’t give up and we don’t give in. We live day to day and we fight the good fight.

Our minds may battle us at times, and sometimes it might get to the point where we just want to give in and do things the way our human understanding tells us to. But the voice that is strong within us keeps us walking on that straight and narrow path.

We are strong. We are moving forward. Satan is a loser and God has already won the battle!

Let us not grow weary in doing what is good. For in the end we will see it was all worth it.

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.

We are ambassadors for Christ. We walk by faith and not by sight. Whatever battle we see in front of us now is not too hard for us to face. We need to put on God’s armor, stand firm on His words and His promises to us, and walk forward.

God is our Rock!

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.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-14-18

Romans 8:25 (NKJV) 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

One of the hardest things to do is to persevere when we are in a battle. Most times we are already tired and weary. All we want to do is crash somewhere, let someone else take over, close our eyes and go to sleep.

How many of us know that feeling? Just let me sleep it off, and when I wake up maybe it will be gone.

If we want to put this battle behind us, we must win. It’s not time to lay down and rest or take a break. It’s time to stand and keep on standing until we get our answer, our breakthrough.

Maybe we are in a situation today that has us feeling like we can’t think straight. Our mind is all worn out and our body is feeling beaten down from the emotional stress of it all. God wants to personally show us how we can go further than we’ve ever thought of going.

He wants to renew and refresh us with His strength, His Might and His power. He wants to keep us going. We can’t lay down yet; not until we reach that point where we have the peace of God in us, speaking loud and clear, saying, “It’s over”.

Receive His strength today to keep on going.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come to you in the name of your precious Son, Jesus Christ, and we ask Lord for your strength to keep us going. Give us the strength we need today to move forward and to press in and persevere. We want to finish this battle and be done with it once and for all. We want to put it behind us and look at the better days that You have, not far away. We know that You are faithful and diligent in all Your ways. It is us, Father, that is weak. Please forgive us for allowing our weakness to take over and almost cause us to give up. We know now that we need You to help us to persevere today. Please strengthen us. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-3-17

Ephesians 6:14 (NKJV) 14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness…

Stepping up to the plate can sometimes be scary. There is no doubt about that. But if it is what God wants us to do, we need to take the step.

Many years ago, we were asked to step up to the plate and be the pillars of a crumbling church.

We had never done anything like that before. And at the time, we were hurting within ourselves after seeing what had taken place. We were in the midst of our own pain and sorrow. Our hearts were hurting from the damage that was done. It touched us in a very personal way.

When things happen to us personally, it can be hard to pick up the pieces and move on. It’s hard to be strong in these situations.

We ached so badly in our hearts. And our eyes were filled with tears. We couldn’t see a light at the end of a very dark tunnel. But, that is when God builds that muscle in us, to believe for what we can’t see.

It’s in those moments that we forgive, trust and keep going and do what needs to be done, even when we are hurting and in pain.

He brings beautiful things out of what seem to be terrible situations.

We just have to step up to the plate and stand, letting Him lead, before we get to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and the beauty that is waiting there for us.
