Tag: What the Bible says about God’s faithfulness

Isaiah 40:8 NKJV) 8 The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”

The world is anything but stable, especially during the times we’re currently living in.

Some days it seems like it can’t possibly get any crazier. But it does.

In times like what we’re living in, we need to understand that there is only One who can bring stability; God, the Creator of everything we see.

Everything around us eventually withers, fades and dies.

But God and His word stand forever.

If we have placed our hope in the things or the people around us, we will be sorely disappointed as each one will eventually let us down in one way or another.

Things will break or fail. People can hurt us or let us down in various ways.

Our one true source of stability is God. Anything or anyone else will fade away just as the grass and the flowers mentioned in the verse above.

But our God? He and His word will stand forever. Amen.

Psalm 119:160 (NKJV) 160 The entirety of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever.

We must believe the whole Bible and take to heart the things that God has spoken to us.

Stand on His Word no matter what we see going on around us. Keep our hearts focused on Him, and don’t look back.

This place we live in is only temporary. But while we are here, we must take action as God’s children.

His promises have been given to each and every one of us.

If we need salvation, it’s in Him.

If we need hope, it’s in Him.

If we need deliverance, it’s in Him.

If we need healing, it’s in Him.

He is everything. And we can do nothing without Him. We must abide in His truth.

John 15:5 (NKJV) 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

He will carry us through the hardest times we have ever had to walk through and get us to the other side!

So many of us struggle with this when things begin to fall apart around us. We lose sight of Him and begin to grow weary if we are not careful.

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.

Losing heart means that we begin doubting His very words, and giving up.

Hold tight. He is faithful to get us to the other side! Amen.

Merry Christmas to you all!

Matthew 19:26 (NKJV) 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

We are so very thankful today for each and every one of you. Thank you for listening to the Holy Spirit as He directs you in your giving to help this work at Seven Seas Ministries.

You have helped us reach the nations, day by day.

It is more than we ever thought we would do in a lifetime. And yet, here we are, doing just that, with your incredible help.

It’s a funny thing, because we don’t even want to know the number of people we reach, their location or even how we reached them. Because we know it is God, not us.

We are so grateful that He brought you alongside us to help. We could never do this on our own. Never.

Many years ago, when we decided to walk this call out. God gave us a vision. In this vision He showed us our home, right in the middle of a valley.

There were thousands of people all around the home. He told us, “they will take care of you and provide what you need”.

That was shocking, because we started out with just a few people receiving our emails.

How would it get to that point without Him? How, since we’ve never even met most of you face to face?

But guess what; with God, all things are possible!

You are connected to us through the Holy Spirit. We have never met most of you, but we are one in His Spirit. Those we have met, it seemed like we knew them all our lives.

What God is doing is amazing. We live in a miraculous situation every day, never knowing who will help us, or how it will happen, only trusting God to move on the hearts that will follow.

Thank you for listening. And not only that, but for taking action. You are doing a mighty work on this earth.

May He bless you, your home, work place and anything you touch. May you reap from the seeds you have sown out of obedience, in Jesus’ name. Amen.

We love you all, and we are grateful, even if we have not met you yet. We will all be together some day, where we will celebrate our Miracle Maker!! Amen.

Zechariah 4:6 (NKJV) 6 So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts.

An angel of God had come to Zechariah with a vision that was meant to comfort a remnant of the people of Israel, who were in exile.

They longed to be able to return to their homeland, Israel.

Their heart’s desire was to rebuild the temple of God and wait upon the return of the Messiah, bringing the fulfillment of God’s promises to His people.

They were up against circumstances that looked impossible by human logic and human understanding.

But, as the angel spoke to Zechariah, he assured him that God had a plan, and that it would be fulfilled.

The catch, though, was that these plans would not be carried out by traditional power or might, but by the Spirit of God Himself.

This is very fitting for us today.

We are witnessing so many events on a global level that are 100% evil in their origins, displaying corruption on a scale not seen before by most of us.

And it makes us wonder what will happen next. How will this evil be overcome and brought to its knees? How will justice prevail in such times as these, where depravity is the norm for so many?

I don’t have the exact answer, nor the timing of it. But know this; God is on His throne, and none of this is too big for Him.

None of this has caught Him by surprise. Evil will be crushed, in one way or another.

And while I may not have an exact answer as to how it will play out, I know beyond a doubt that it will not be by human might nor power, but 100% by the hand of God, by His Spirit.

In that, I rest. In that, I hold confidence. And in that, I have the peace of God that surpasses all understanding.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV) 6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

Romans 12:9 (NKJV) 9 Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.

I love how Paul tells us how it’s done; 3 very important things to pay attention to.

Love without hypocrisy. In others words, make sure that when we love, we mean it. No faking it in this walk.

Some people are good at faking their love. We wouldn’t even know they were faking it if God didn’t show us. That’s why we need Him.

One day, in a vision, God showed me a person that I cared about deeply. They were stabbing me in the back with a knife, laughing all the while.

I was like, “no way, God. It can’t be. They love me!”.

Well, it turned out to be true, and it happened.

When God shows us things like that, pay attention. Don’t be like me, arguing back, saying, “no way, can’t be”. God’s not going to make things up.

To abhor evil means that we hate it or despise it.

Don’t give into bad talk or filthy gestures. Don’t even entertain those thoughts for one second.

Don’t give into anything that we know is bad. It’s bad and we don’t need to be a part of it or have anything to do with it. Walk away.

For those of us stuck in a situation where we don’t know what to do, we need to seek God on how to get out of it. He will give us wisdom as to the best way to handle it.

Find the good, and don’t think that just because we may have done wrong throughout our life that bad will have a grip on us. No. Turn from it and get with God.

He will help us to change our path. He will help us turn our lives and our situation around. He is our Father. What Father would not help their child?

God is good…cling to Him.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NKJV) 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

Rejoice.

Isaiah 43:2 (NKJV) 2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.

What a friend we have in Jesus!

He will pass with us through the waters. What waters are we walking through today? Are they murky and full of weeds, causing us to not be able to see the bottom?

Is it a stormy rough water, splashing over the top and filling the boat? Is it causing us to be tossed back and forth?

He says here in Isaiah, “I will be with you”!

Has the heat been turned up and things are getting hard to deal with? Is our situation getting worse? Are our finances drained, or our marriage on the verge of total loss?

How about our walk with God? Is the pressure of things causing us to doubt Him?

He says, if we walk through the fire, we shall not be burned. When we come out not even be scorched.

Why?

Because God will be with us.

He is our comfort. Cry out to Him for help today and He will carry us through in ways we never thought possible.

We are coming out of this together!!

Dear God,

Please help me. I don’t know how to cross over the murky waters or walk through the burning fire. I need YOU, Your direction and Your protection today.

Thank you. In Jesus’ name I ask. Amen.
