Finally At The End Of The Day...

Do not worry about anything, but pray and ask God for everything you need, always giving thanks. And God's peace, which is so great we can't understand it, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. Amen.

                                              -Philippians 4:6-7

-

This was one of the first Scriptures I remembered especially when I was going through an almost constant stream of unnecessary worry over the slightest things. It is important for you to recite those scriptures that mean the most to you to strengthen you each day. Meditate day and night. Yes, it is that important!

Jesus said this before leaving...

               

"I leave you peace; my peace I give you. I do not give it to you as the world does. So don't let your hearts be troubled or afraid."

                                                     -John 14:27

-

It is these words that you can read even today and it will stand the test of time. There is TRUTH and security in knowing that Jesus is looking over us daily.

Only The LORD Gives Strength...

to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.

                                                                     -Psalm 29:11

In PSALM 4:8 reflected King David's thoughts...

I go to bed and sleep in peace, because , LORD, only you keep me safe.

Also this is good to remind you...

Let the peace that Christ gives control your thinking, because you were all called together in one body to have peace. Always be thankful.

-Colossians 3:15

And since we have been right with God....

by our faith, we have peace with God. This happened through our Lord Jesus Christ.

                                                                                                         -Romans 5:1

Paul mentioned this in Philippians...


Do what you learned and received from me, what I told you, and what you saw me do. And the God who gives you peace will be with you.

                                                                                                -Philippians 4:9

A message to encourage you....

Every day, you and I are reminded of how tough life can be. It's true that life can be really hard but don't ever give up on your tomorrows!

Keep believing, keep looking ahead, keep pressing into more and more of what God has for your life.

I believe your best days are ahead. God's plan is bigger than just what He wants to do for you — it grows into what God wants to do through you.

The power of God's increase is so great that there are no challenges too big and no circumstances too difficult to be radically transformed.

When you keep on believing in the midst of your storm, not only will God lead you out, but He will lead you into His supernatural increase!

What you see as a major setback is really a divine setup.

God's working through the circumstances in your life to create an incredible moment of progress and promotion. He has pre-ordained seasons of increase in your life — not because of anything you do, but because He wants to pour out His goodness in your life.

God's plan for your life is bigger than simply solving today's problem — He wants to promote you. Through His Word and the power of His Holy Spirit, you will be amazed at what God will do in your life.

There's a path to this season of increase, and I want to encourage you to take it.

Start believing a new season of increase like never before will spring forth in your life.

Always remember that God is for you and loves to give to His children.

When you 'make it' say this simple prayer...


Lord, ALL our succss is because of what you have done...so give us peace.

                                                                                                   -Isaiah 26:12

The God Who Brings You Peace...

will soon defeat Satan and give you peace over him. The grace of our the Lord Jesus be with you.

                                                                                                                                  -Romans 16:20

-

Encouragement with a steady assurance that God is closer than we know. Awesome! 

Did you know a Child has been born to us?

God has given a son to us. He will be responsible for leading the people. His name will be Wonderful Counselor, Powerful God, Father Who Lives Forever, Prince Of Peace. Power and peace will be in his kingdom and will continue to grow forever. He will rule as king on David's throne and over David's kingdom. He will make it strong by ruling with justice and goodness from now on and forever. The LORD All-Powerful will do this because of his strong love for his people.

                                                    -Isaiah 9:6-7

-

What does this tell you? It says that the prophet Isaiah was prophesizing about Jesus way before his time. Powerful.

Continuing with Ephesians 2:13-14...

But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away from God are brought near through the blood of Christ's death. Christ himself is our peace. He made BOTH Jewish people and those who are not Jews ONE people. They were separated as if there were a wal between them, but Christ broke down that wall of hate by giving his own body.

-

What do you get when you read this Scripture? I would like to know your point of view because, man...this is a powerful statement! Think of that for a moment? 'He made BOTH Jewish people and those who are not Jews ONE PEOPLE!' That is what stands out most to me.

JESUS IS YOUR PEACE

You, LORD, give true peace to those who depend on you, because they trust you.

                                                                                                                                -Isaiah 26:3

I believe what Romans 8:38-39 says...

Yes, I am sure that neither death, nor life,nor angels, nor ruling spirits, nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us, nothing below us,nor anything else in the world will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

-

So much truth behind these very words that it should make you always feel safe and secure that God's love abounds. As far as the East is from the West! Our Lord God is an AMAZING GOD and we are to celebrate Him joyfully and wonderfully!

Ok, maybe I can finish up 2 more...

So these three things continue forever: faith, hope and love. And the greatest of these is love.

                                                                                                                  -1 Corinthians 13:13
-
This is one psalm I would repeat every single day and it has kept me guided in knowing that
with these 3 things, we can really feel the renewing of our spirits.



Let Me Get you This Scripture Before the Day Closes...

The LORD shows his true love everyday. At night I have a song, and I pray to my living God.

                                                                                                                                     -Psalm 42:8

Wednesday, May 25, 2011

Here is what Jesus says with ABSOLUTE sureness...




Those who know my commands and obey them are the ones who love me, and my Father will love those who love me. I will love them and show myself to them.

                                                                                                                                            -John 14:21

These are word you can live by without feeling that heavy weight. Jesus gave us a lot. He taught by example and not empty words. The key word being: obedience. If we can be obedient to those
commands we can draw closer on a regular basis.

Let these words remain with you forever...

And I will make you my promised bride forever. I will be good and fair; I will show you my love and mercy.

                                                                                                                                        -Hosea 2:19

For it is by the Lord's Word we can surely and truly believe. He would not make this promise to you if it were not true.

Jerimiah 31:3 brings it into more focus...

And from far away the LORD appeared to his people and said, "I love you people with a love that will last forever. That is why I have continued showing you kindness."


And even to this day He still shows kindness to those who obey and follow His precepts. One should never have to worry that they are calling out in vain and that 'He just ain't hearin' me!'
He does hear you. He wants to see if you will truly obey Him and do as He commands.

A Wise Proverb Can Say So Much



                                   I love those who love me, and those who seek me, find me.

                                                                    -Proverbs 8:17


 In such short terms of expresssion, this proverb keeps it simple for the reader to interpret and the very words can fill one with a renewed peace that mentions that all we need to do is seek Him and truly trust Him.

Listen to what Paul says in Ephesians 3:17-19

I pray that Christ will live in your hearts by FAITH and that your life will be strong in love and be built on love. And I pray that you and all God's holy people will have the power too understand the greatness of Christ's love-how wide and how long and how high and how deep that love is. Christ's love is greater than anyone can ever know, but I pray that you will able to know that love. Then you can be filled with the fullness of God.

As so wonderfully stated in John 15:9-13, 17, Jesus said...

I loved you as the Father loved me. Now remain in my love. I have obeyed my Father's commands, and I will remain in his love. In the same way, if you obey my commands, you will remain in my love. I told you these things so that you can have the same joy I have and so that your joy will be the fullest possible joy. This is my command: Love each other as I have loved you. The greatest love a person can show is to die for his friends. This is my command: Love each other.

When you read these words and relate them to you life, it can seem like such a simple command. We should be able to put it into practice on a daily basis instead of it being just words.
I have found that by reading over and over something that puts the hook into my imagination, this is something I can work closely with and study the results. And I see it, with practice of this simple life lesson, it works well for me.

The Scripture of 1 John 4:16, 19 mentions...

And so we know the love that God has for us, and we trust that love. God is love. Those who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. We love because God first loved us.

Let's read what 1 John 4:7-12 says:

Dear friends, we should love each other, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has become God's child and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love to us: He sent his one and only Son into the world so that we could have life through him. This is what real love is: It is not our love for God; it is God's love for us in sending his Son to be the way to take away our sins. Dear friends, if God loved that much we also should love each other. No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is made perfect in us.

In John 3:16, it states...

God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son so that who whoever believes in him may not be lost, but have eternal life.

JESUS IS YOUR LOVE

But God shows his great love for us in this way; Christ died for us while we were still sinners.

Romans 5:8

Monday, May 23, 2011

Open up to Acts 2:25 and you will see...

For David said this about him: " I keep the Lord before me always. Because he is close by my side, I will not be hurt."


For the Lord was always watchful over David and he knew this and gave reverence to Him.

In Mark 12:30 it mentions that we should...

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind and all your strength.


This is to mean with every ounce of our being, we are to love the Lord with every facet of our being. That we should never lack in our zeal for the Lord. That we should determine that while there is still breath in us, we are to repent from all that other nonsense and truly focus on how we are going to renew our relationship with Him on a daily, continual basis. This scripture should speak volumes to your heart and mind.

The prophet Isaiah 50:7 says...

The Lord GOD helps me, so I will not be ashamed. I will be determined, and I know I will not be disgraced.

This is another saying that one can add to there repetitive mentions of God's assisting us in our daily lives.

Just a note:



A lot of people are going thru some tough times these days. Especially the hungry children of the world. I don't know about you, but this is one thing that truly affects me. Not only is this just a African situation but a WORLDWIDE epidemic!


That is why I have added the Support My Blog app and would really appreciate any contributions that you could part with without feeling you are 'breaking the bank'.


I am really seeing what I can do for someone else who is really in need. So your gift is essentially a gift for someone else who might need something very basic like clothes, water, food or shelter.


So I am appealing to those who have and can support with a very minimal donation.

Take note of Psalm 86:5...

Lord, you are kind and forgiving and have great love for those who call to you.

Understand Psalm 73:28...



But I am close to God, and that is good. The Lord GOD is my protection. I will tell all that you have done.

Psalm 68:19 is worth remembering...



Praise the Lord, God our Savior, who helps us everyday.






This is simple and worth noting for our every worry. That it is Him who is with us. The Lord does not forsake those whom He loves.

Romans 14:8 say that...

If we live, we are living for the Lord, and if we die, we are dying for the Lord. So living or dying, we belong to the Lord.

There is that which in Acts 2:36 says...



So, all the people of Israel should know this truly: God has made Jesus-the man you nailed cross-both Lord and Christ

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

You should know your body is a temple for the Holy Spirit who is in you. You have received the Holy Spirit from God. So you do not belong to yourselves, because you were bought by God for a price. So honor God with your bodies.

And Romans 12:1-2 mentions...

So brothers and sisters, since God has shown us great mercy, I beg you to offer your lives as a living sacrifice to him. Your offering must be only for God and pleasing to him, which is the spiritual way for you to worship. Do not changes yourselves to be like the people of this world, but be changed within by a new way of thinking. Then you will be able to decide what God wants for you; you will know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect.

Romans 6:13-16 says...

Do not offer the parts of your body to serve as sin, as things to be used in doing evil. Instead, offer yourselves to God as people who have died and now live. Offer the parts of your body to God to be used in doing good. Sin will not be your master, because you are not under the law but under God's grace. So what should we do? Should we sin because we are under grace and not under law? No! Surely you know that when you give yourselves like slaves to obey someone, then you are really slaves to that person, which brings spiritual death, or you can obey God, which makes you right with him.

In Luke 6:46, Jesus asked this question...

Why do you call me, "Lord, Lord," but do not do what I say?

That question is still as relevant as it was the day he first spoke it from His mouth. The question remains. But it is up to us to be able to give the correct answer.

Romans 10:9-10 mentions...

If you use your mouth to say, "Jesus is Lord," and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. We believe with our hearts, and so we are made right with God. And we use our mouths to say that we believe, and so we are saved.

JESUS IS YOUR LORD

So God raised him to the highest place. God made his name greater than every other name so that every kneee will bow to the name of Jesus-everyone in heaven, on earth, and under the earth. And everyone will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and bring glory to God the Father.

Philippians 2:9-11

Psalm 106:8

But the Lord saved them for his own sake, to show his great power.

2 Timothy 1:8-9 states...

But suffer with me for the Good News. God, who gives us the strength to do that, saved us and made us his holy people. That is not because of anything we did ourselves but because of God's purpose and grace. That grace was given to us through Christ Jesus before time began.

2 Corinthians 5:17 says...

If anyone belongs to Christ, there is a new creation. The old things have gone; everything is made new!

Check out Romans 10:9

If you use your mouth to say, "Jesus is Lord," and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved.

It's that simple! It is not difficult to be saved. All you have to do is to WANT IT.

Ephesians 2:8-9

I mean that you have been saved by grace through believing. You did not save yourselves; it was a gift from God. It was not a result of your own efforts, so you cannot brag about it.

In John 6:47, Jesus said...

I tell you the truth, whoever believes has eternal life.

Ephesians 2:4-5

But God's mercy is great, and he loved us very much. Though we were spiritually dead because of the things we did against God, he gave us new life with Christ. You have been saved by God's grace.

Romans 3:22-24

God makes people right with himself through their faith in Jesus Christ. This is true for all who believe in Christ, because all people are the same: All have sinned and are not good enough for God's glory, and all need to be made right with God by his grace, which is a free gift. They need to be made free from sin through Jesus Christ.

JESUS IS YOUR SAVIOR

We have seen and can testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.

1 John 4:14







JESUS IS YOUR SAVIOR



He saved us because of his mercy. It was not because of the good deeds we did to be right with him. He saved us through the washing that made us new people through the Holy Spirit. God poured out richly upon us that Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ our Savior.
