 Have you talked to your Father today? Have you told Him about your plans, hopes, dreams? Have you asked Him to guide your thoughts and actions? Have you shared your joys and enjoyment of the beauty of His creation? Have you shared your hurts and fears with the only One who truly understands your needs? Have you asked for His protection in your life and in the lives of your family? Have you repented your evil attitudes and ideas? Have you asked for His help to spread His grace among the people in your world? Have you given time to just sit in His presence and feel the surrounding power of His being? Have you "let go and let God"? Have you remembered to praise and thank God for all that he does? Take time to be holy Speak oft with your Lord. Abide in Him always  and feed on His word. Make friends of God's children Help those who are weak. Forgetting in nothing  His blessings to seek. (by William D. Longstaff)

      Since the establishment of modern Israel (officially 1948), the Biblical scholars have questioned what God has in store for His creation.  Since no one knows exactly when Jesus will return, all sorts of people have predicted the coming date - the latest being the Feast of Trumpets - only to be proven wrong.  Even though the children of God anxiously wait for His return, we continue to live under His power.  Yet the year 2020 has proven to be the most definite indicator that the time of God is coming soon - when is the only question.  All nature has revolted against man's inability to husband the land and animals.  Rather than protect what God gave people to use for their benefit, mankind has constantly tried to control and boss the creation of God.  Now the world faces gigafires which burn millions of acers of land without re-guard to the punny efforts of man to stop the wildfires.  Hurricanes have struck land with an unprecedented...

Psalm 117 All you nations, PRAISE THE LORD. All you people, PRAISE THE LORD  because the Lord loves you very much, and His truth is everlasting. Psalm 118 Give thanks to the Lord for He is good. His steadfast love endures forever. WAIT for the guidance of the Lord and depend on Him. WATCH for the return of Jesus, who will come for His people SOON and very soon. PRAY for the Lord God to rain, rein, reign over the nations of the world, the cultures and peoples whom he has loved with an everlasting sacrificial love that is true and just.            THIS IS MY FATHER'S WORLD!

 Live your life so that the light of God will be a beacon of hope for the people you meet, know, and love in all seasons of your life - spring, summer, fall, winter. Follow the guidance of God 2 Chronicles 7:13-19 13 - events that are to call us back to God - drought, destruction, disease 14 - response expected from believers - who follow the Lord God, Most High         How to respond:                a. Humble yourself - dump self pride and depending on own thoughts/strength/ideas                          b. PRAY - study, meditate, focus on Jesus - an earnest out cry to the Triune God                c. Repent - regret and give up all sin (anything that does not please God)                d. Turn from sin (wicked thoughts and behaviors) seeking the face of God and His guidance...

2 Peter 1:3-8 3  According to His divine nature power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue; 4  Whereby are given to us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5  And besides this giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6  And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7  And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and abound they make you that you shall be neither barren barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. God. the Most High Triune God, wants us to seek Him and to follow His guidance always.  Pray daily for His love to flood through you on to others. Watch for things you can do to being Honor and G...

Psalm 91 Upon reflection on the soldiers' prayer, I realize that Psalm 91 is for all of the "soldiers" in God's army. He promises to protect us, lead us, and surround us with His merciful grace, power, and love.  While thinking about these words I used the following outline: I Sin to confess - for me it is my failure to trust on God and follow His guidance. II Promise to claim - God will allow us to be surrounded by danger and never be harmed IF we will trust him at his word. III Example to follow - Daniel who trusted God even when he was thrown into the lions' den. IV Command to obey - Trust in God always V Knowledge to gain - God surrounds His children and shelters them from all danger.  He is our refuge, sanctuary, strength, hope, guide, our HEAVENLY FATHER who loves us beyond measure just as we are.

 For centuries this question has plagued mankind who has sought answers in the heavens, the earth, in political power, science, and in human relationships.  The answer. however, lies in the 66 books of the Bible where God reveals himself to the hungry minds of people. God is the Holy Creator of the universe who appears in three forms. God the Father - who formed everything God the Son - who became flesh and died for our sins and rose from the dead God the Holy Spirit - who indwells the children of God and guides our thoughts and actions. God is Three persons in one entity.  Unique and wholey one. It is the choice of humans to have a living relationship with this Holy God by giving Him total control of the daily life and to be willing to follow His guidance like sheep follow the shepherd who provides and protects them.   CHOOSE WISELY.

 Pray for the Nation to return to the laws of God and to His control where lies true freedom.  Trust in the guidance of God who created the Universe for His pleasure and glory.  Watch for the imminent return of Jesus who is the Savior of those who acknowledge Him as Lord and Master.  The only way to heaven is through the blood of Jesus and the acceptance of Him as the ONLY TRUE SON OF GOD, who is all man and all God at the same time. Pray for your family Pray for your friends Pray for the economy Pray for the farmers who produce the food we eat and the fiber we wear. Pray for the educational system to return to the foundation of God's way - the Judeo/Christian values and guidance - the 66 books of the  Bible. Pray  PRAY PRAY EVERY HOUR OF EVERY DAY! GIVE THANKS TO THE HOLY ONE GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD GOD FOR ALL OF HIS BLESSINGS. Wait patiently - Watch faithfully - Pray constantly.

  Today is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Worship the Lord with gladness and depend on His Word. Sing songs of joy in all seasons of life - celebrate the power of God. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. Praise Him all creatures here blow. Praise him above you heavenly host. Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Rejoice in God always giving thanks for everything.

 Easter is the Day that the One and only Son of God rose from the dead and declared that anyone who believes in Him as the Savior of the World will live with the HOLY TRIUNE GOD forever.  Easter is the day that Salvation defeated sin and hatred.  Jesus won the fight and is gathering God's family to live with Him.  Jesus is the only way to enter Heaven through the free gift of His blood sacrifice of a perfect life to meet the just demands of a Holy God.   Look for the return of Jesus for His people who trust in the promises found in John 3:16-17 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whosoever (me, you) believes on Him will have everlasting life.  God did not send His Son to condemn the world but to save it."  John 14 "In my Father's house are many mansions.  I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also." Revelation 21:4 "And God will wipe a...

 Turn to the Most High God for all things Repel evil thoughts and focus on Jesus Use the gifts God has given you to spread His glorious holy presence Stand firm in the WORD clinging tight to His promises Trust in the Lord and lean not on your own understanding.  Follow the guidance of God. Take up your cross, daily. Humbly pray, knowing in your heart, mind, and soul that God is always in control. Examine your thoughts and actions and dump evil thoughts, anything that clouds your vision of the Lord. Live so that the Light of God shines through your life Open your heart to others and share with them - laughter and tears Repent of your sins asking God to draw you closer to His presence Depend on God always, for all things.
