Bible Verse of The Day – 6-13-23

Matthew 5:13-14 (NKJV) 13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. 14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Fellow believers, do you want to know our call?

It’s very simple; to be the salt and light of the world.

Our call is to influence and penetrate a secular society for the good; to reach the lost.

We must stay close to God by feeding our spirit with His word daily. This helps us to keep our flavor and our spark, and keep our brightness strong.

There is no time for us to let down our guard. We must remember that this journey here on earth is only for a season. And it doesn’t last nearly as long as we think it will.

That is the amount of time we are here on this earth. Our rest comes when we go to our heavenly home. Until then, we work. We press in, and we push forward.

Let us get up each day with a song of praise in our heart and a determined will to do good, and to light up this earth with our “God-given influence of love” and leave an impression wherever we step foot!

God is our light. He lives within us. We can’t be afraid to speak up, to pray for others, to encourage one another and to glorify Him through our actions!

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-25-23

John 8:12 (NKJV) 12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

What have we been called to do as God’s children? Shine bright!

When we are on the right path, shining is easy. But what if we slip up?

And just let me say, we do slip sometimes.

Can we lose our shine forever?

When we are messing with the wrong thing, we can definitely dull that shine. The light that is in us will be unnoticeable. It will be tainted with sin. And sin is dark.

If we are following Jesus, we have the Light of life living in us. This Light of life is what causes us to shine. We have to be the one to make a conscious effort to keep that light shining by doing the right things.

If we are hesitant in our decision, it can be very easy for the enemy to push the wrong things on us, and we will fall for it and find ourselves thinking, “what did I just do?”.

We have to know quickly in our hearts, and then turn from or resist the devil with the help of the Holy Spirit.

James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Maybe we have made some wrong decisions in our life and we are paying for it big time. But that does not mean we need to stay there.

We can come back up and gain respect and trust when we decide we will try our best to do what’s right next time around.

If we take the steps to repent and follow Jesus Christ, His light of life in us will shine again! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-6-18

Matthew 5:14 (NKJV) 14 “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

We are the light of the world. Why? Because as we let God’s Spirit live in us, we are full of His life. Abundant life!

Can we even comprehend the magnificence of His Spirit living in us? Maybe not. Our minds aren’t that big. But if we just have the faith and trust, He will do things right before our very eyes.

How AWESOME to have the Spirit of the Son of the living God, living, moving and breathing, not just in us, but through us.

Now, to be the light of the world we must let Him move through us each day. Yes, some days we are tired and not as willing. But, the days that we are willing, He will open doors for us to walk through that are amazing!

For example, it could be a phone call from someone that needs encouragement. It could be someone standing in line at the grocery store that just needs someone to be patient with them. It could be a little child that may need someone to sit with them and read them a story. It’s not hard or complicated, but comes naturally to us as children of God.

Don’t always look for that BIG thing that we think God will use us for. Stay open to what the Holy Spirit aligns us with at that moment and go for it. He will put in our mouths and hearts what is needed at that time. Just be open minded with whatever He would like to do and shine that light, sister and brother!

With Christ in us we are destined to shine. It’s up to us to agree with the Holy Spirit and let Him be free in us.

Rest in Him, have fun, and let the world know who we are in Christ!! Full of life. Amen.

John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-21-16

John 8:12 (NKJV) 12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”

Jesus is the light of the world.

There is no darkness in Him. And as His followers, He wants us to represent Him well.

We want to encourage everyone today to let God shine His light on us and show us if we’re carrying things in ourselves that spread darkness instead of light.

Sometimes it might be our attitude. Sometimes it might be unforgiveness. Sometimes it might be negative words that we speak. Sometimes it might be greed, envy or jealousy.

There are many things that we can carry that God wants us to lay down. Sometimes we carry them because of things that have happened to us. Sometimes we carry them by choice. Other times we carry them and don’t even know why.

Either way, we encourage you today to let God show us where we are harboring darkness and to let Him help us lay it down, once and for all.
