Bible Verse of The Day – 10-20-22

2 Corinthians 13:14 (NKJV) 14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

The Lord has given us this verse to pray over each and every one of you this morning.

Grace, love and communion are the three most powerful and important gifts that we have been given to keep our relationship alive and moving forward every day.

They are exactly what God is all about.

Because of God’s love for us, He sent His Son to save us from death and destruction.

Jesus Christ brought grace to us through His sacrificial death on the cross. He spilled His precious, perfect and holy blood for us.

The Holy Spirit brings us into communion and strong relationship with our Heavenly Father; The Creator of the heavens and earth!

We can live, breathe and walk out His plan through the gift of the Holy Spirit in us.

May you know the love we have for you and how much we want to see you living in your calling, walking daily in the life God has planned out specifically for you and your family.

His plan is so beautiful and so fitting to your specific personality, gifts and your needs here on this earth.

Our greatest reward is to know you are living in it. That is what we move and breathe for each day.

Hear our hearts cry for you today and rejoice in the Lord, for He is good! You are in our prayers. Amen.

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

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-29-22

Psalm 34:19 (NKJV) 19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.

No one likes to hear the first part of this scripture. After all, who wants to be told in advance that we, the righteous, may have to endure afflictions.

What are afflictions? Things that cause pain or suffering.

As a child of God, we will face things.

Many of us have already been there and seen the Lord’s deliverance in our lives. We could probably share some good stories together.

I would love to write a book of testimonies from those who have seen the hand of God in their lives. He is faithful to the end!

We may all face things, but God promises in His word that He will deliver.

So, we can’t stop up our ears when we see or hear the word, “afflictions”.

We need to know about God’s deliverance and how He is there for us in times of famine and in times of feast.

Let us be real today and know that God has us! Amen.

Isaiah 46:4 (NKJV) 4 Even to your old age, I am He, And even to gray hairs I will carry you! I have made, and I will bear; Even I will carry, and will deliver you.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-27-22

Psalm 37:4 (NKJV) 4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

I am in awe of the moments when God does something to show us how personal He is.

I celebrated my birthday recently. I remember thinking around that time how nice it would be if the last project in our new home would be finished in time for my birthday.

The carpenter had been working on it intermittently, but it was still not complete. I knew he was swamped with work and I did not want to press him.

But then, a couple days before my birthday, my husband, said to me unexpectedly, “the carpenter is coming today”.

I was excited, but still not expecting to have the project finished, knowing the work involved and his busy schedule.

But, you see, God knows our desires. And between Him and my husband, they worked together to make this happen!

The project was completed that same day. So, I got a wonderful birthday present from my beloved Lord and my wonderful husband who saw it through.

Thank you, Father, for always causing us to be in awe at Your magnificence and faithfulness, even in those things that might seem insignificant!

And I’m grateful to have such a blessed man of God by my side, till death do us part.

God bless you all. Enjoy the faithfulness of our Lord as He brings those personal thoughts to life and gives us the desires of our hearts.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-26-22

Acts 8:1 (NLT) 1 Saul was one of the witnesses, and he agreed completely with the killing of Stephen. A great wave of persecution began that day, sweeping over the church in Jerusalem; and all the believers except the apostles were scattered through the regions of Judea and Samaria.

As the early church began to grow and flourish, it seemed like nothing could possibly stop them.

The number of people being added to the body of Christ was increasing daily. The believers were helping each other, and miracles were being performed regularly.

What could possibly go wrong?

And then Saul showed up, inciting hatred and violence upon the believers. His goal was to stop this new movement, even if it meant killing some of them.

He even gave his approval to the stoning death of Steven.

This immense persecution caused fear to sweep over the church, and all the believers except the apostles fled, scattering throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria.

And so began the end of Christianity. Or so it might have seemed.

But you see, what the devil means for evil, God uses for good.

And those very same believers who scattered took with them the gospel of truth, and they began to share it with others everywhere they went!

Acts 8:4 (NLT) 4 But the believers who were scattered preached the Good News about Jesus wherever they went.

So, as they taught the people about Jesus, His truth spread far and wide.

This thing that Saul and the other Jews tried to stop became unstoppable, flourishing despite what appeared to be imminent decimation with the death of Steven.

And to top it all off, God tore from Saul the desire to kill Christians by making him one!

Isn’t that just like our God?

We need to always remember that even the darkest times can be turned around. And nobody can do that the way God does.

Genesis 50:20 (NLT) 20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good…

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-13-22

Psalm 37:3 (NKJV) 3 Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

Feed off His faithfulness!

He is just like His word says; very faithful.

He is omnipresent; Present everywhere at the same time.

He is omnipotent; having unlimited power and able to do anything.

He is omniscient; He knows everything!

That about covers it all, wouldn’t you agree?

He is trustworthy and loves us deeply.

He knows our hearts, and He is speaking to the very hearts of those who might need to take a step of faith today.

Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not when we think we’ve got it all together. And not when we see results of what we are waiting on.

That is not having faith. That is calling the shots ourselves and receiving the results of the plans of a mere man vs. the results of the plans of an Almighty God!

Reach out for Him and His plan today, and trust Him.

Yes, there will be times when He may show us what to do and it will seem rather off the wall compared to our human, intellectual minds.

But, if we feel like it is Him, we need to trust it all the way through!

His faithfulness will surprise us, even in His provision for those little things we need. He will take care of it all.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-23-22

John 9:31 (NKJV) 31 Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him.

Some people wonder why God is not answering them, and they go through so much complication in their life.

They’ve lost so much, and now they are hard from life itself and the things that have beaten them down.

God can not hear from a sinner. If someone has not truly accepted God’s Son, Jesus Christ, who is the way that He has made for us all to be able to communicate with Him, then He can not hear from them.

In order for Him to hear us and be able to help us, we must first acknowledge His Son and believe in Him. When we do this, we will find ourselves truly worshiping Him and living our lives to please Him and obey Him.

It’s a sure thing. Our prayers will be heard and He will guide us, protect us and provide for us.

Wow! Let us believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, worship Him in truth, and do His will, that He in return will hear us.

John 4:24 (NKJV) 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-13-22

1 Chronicles 16:31 (NKJV) 31 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; And let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.”

Life is messy. The world can be a crazy, scary place.

But there is one thing that I can say that will bring light to seemingly-insurmountable darkness; The Lord reigns.

No matter what life throws at us, whether individually or collectively, The Lord reigns.

We can face some horrendous things in our lives, again, either individually or collectively. But no matter what we face, God is the source of hope, strength and light in the darkness.

We were never promised a life of rosy situations. We were never promised that life would be fair. We were never, ever assured that life would be without trials and tribulations.

In fact, Jesus told us the exact opposite.

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 what else did Jesus say, at the end of verse 33?

He said, ”but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”.

So, our strength and hope lie in the fact that He has already overcome the world, meaning that, although we will face trials and tribulations, we have victory in Him through it all.

And this even applies when things might not go the way we think they should.

And as we walk through this life here on earth, and we deal with the obstacles and the setbacks we sometimes face, there is one thing that we need to be careful not to do.

And it is this; we should never question God’s sovereignty and the way He chooses to do things.

Should we decide to do so, we just may find ourselves in the same shoes as Job, when God so aptly put him in his place after he questioned God’s ways.

Job 38:4 (NKJV) 4 “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell Me, if you have understanding.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-18-22

Matthew 2:7-8 (NKJV) 7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. 8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.”

Herod hoped to deceive the wise men, so he could locate the Christ child and kill Him.

Isn’t it just like the devil to make himself seem to have a righteous purpose behind one of his evil schemes?

And isn’t it just like God to expose the enemy’s evil plans?

People of God, we live in a world where good and evil do battle constantly. And evil masquerades as good, hoping to trick those who are unaware.

We see pieces of it played out right in front of our eyes. But then there is a lot more that we don’t witness in the natural, because it’s carried out in the spiritual realm.

This is why it’s so critically important that we learn to discern absolutely everything that we encounter.

Truth and lies can look so much alike sometimes. And many times, it’s hard to know who to trust when it comes to getting trustworthy counsel and understanding.

Again, this is why it’s so critically important that we learn to discern absolutely everything that we encounter.

So, how do we learn to discern the things we see and hear? How do we know truth from lies? How do we know the difference between honesty and deception?

We immerse ourselves in the word of God. And we let the Holy Spirit teach us how to separate truth from lies; deception from the genuine article.

There is only one place where we can go for this; the word of God.

His word will show us the light in the midst of darkness, even when others can’t see it.

He is trustworthy and true, from start to finish.

He never abandons us and never leaves us without knowledge and understanding.

All we need to do is to desire to know the truth, and then diligently seek it out.

He will be faithful to show us.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-9-22

Psalm 86:10 (NKJV) 10 For You are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God.

The more I live here on this earth, the more I understand the reality of this one thing; He alone is God. And He alone is worthy of our trust, our faith, our honor and our worship.

Trusting in anything here on earth is like riding on a rollercoaster. One minute you’re up, and the next minute you’re down. Or, you’re being thrashed around from the wild ride you’re being taken on.

With God, there is no worry of Him changing. There is no worry of Him abandoning us.

And it’s in that fact that I find my solace, my peace and my stability.

We urge you to do the same.

Let go of the world. And hold only loosely to the things of this life.

Place your trust firmly in Him, and hold fast to Him every minute of every day.

You will not be disappointed.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-24-22

Deuteronomy 1:33 (NKJV) 33 who went in the way before you to search out a place for you to pitch your tents, to show you the way you should go, in the fire by night and in the cloud by day.

God will always go before His people!

This doesn’t mean that He will make it effortless, although some people may think that because He’s God He will do everything for us.

We have to be strong, for there will be areas we are not familiar or comfortable with.

It takes a people who are dedicated and who will not faint in times of tribulation, but know where to pull their strength from; Him and His word!

They will go out of their way to do what needs to be done and they will not shrink back in the face of danger.

These people will not focus on what they want or prefer. And they will not give up when things get hard.

Instead, they will focus on what God asks of them, and then go for it, pressing onward, no matter the cost.

When we trust God with our lives and let Him lead, He will definitely show us the path to take. But He won’t take it for us.

It’s kind of like being on call; ready to go, take directions and do what needs to be done.

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

Praise be to God!

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-14-22

Lamentations 5:19 (NLT) 19 But Lord, you remain the same forever! Your throne continues from generation to generation.

There are a few things we can count on in life.

1 – Change will always come. Life is about change. Sometimes it comes in little ways. Other times it comes in big ways that turns our lives upside down. Either way, change is part of life.

2 – Evil will impact our lives in one way or another. It will either impact us directly because of choices we make, or it will impact us indirectly because of choices that others make. Either way, evil will impact us.

3 – Now this is the best one of the three. God is the same forever!

God will never change. He will always be steadfast and true.

He will never lie, and He will never forsake us.

This far outweighs the first two constants that we listed. And it makes life worth living, no matter what we’re facing or fighting against.

Hold fast to God. Cling to Him in everything.

He will never, ever change. And his throne continues from generation to generation.

Nothing is more sure than this.
