Trust in the Lord

 As we continue to wait, we need to turn to God for His strength and protection.  We need to trust in Him because He is greater than any human who thinks he know what is best.  In Psalm God tells us clearly to trust in Him.  

"I was in trouble, so I called to the Lord.

The Lord answered me and set me free.

I will not be afraid, because the Lord is with me.

People can't do anything to me,

so I will see my enemies defeated.

It is better to trust the Lord

than to trust people.

It is better to trust the Lord

than to trust princes." (Psalm 118:5-9)

No matter what is happening in the world, God knows the choices we make and wants us to depend on Him for all things.  Place your hopes, dreams, problems, fears in His control daily and ask that He show you the path you are to follow.  He will place you where you will best serve Him.  All you need to do is keep your eyes, ears, heart, soul open to His guidance following Him always.  Daily OBEY the promptings of the Holy Spirit no matter how seemingly small.

Please Lord Jesus, Most High God, who was, is and will be, allow us to approach your Holy presence knowing that even though we are a sinful creature who makes destructive choices YOU in your infinite mercy and grace love us.  Please return to the earth to rule over us and guide us into a personal real living relationship with You so that we reflect Your Heavenly throne in our daily lives.  Please provide for our needs - physical, mental, spiritual - personally and as a community of believers that stretches across the miles and millennia.  Please Lord convict our spirits so that we will turn to you pleading for your forgiveness and asking, begging that you pour your mighty protection over us.  Teach us to love our fellow humans - family, friends, neighbors, community, enemies - and to forgive them as you have so gloriously forgiven us.  Save us from all evil thoughts and behaviors and make us into witnesses of your merciful grace and loving kindness.  Thank you for your many mighty and wonderful blessings that fill our daily lives.  You Most High Lord God are the mighty King of the universe full of glory -honor - majesty.  Praise your Holy Name now and forever more.

Go boldly into the presence of the Most High God

As a child of God, I have the right and privilege to come into the presence of the Holy Pure God because of the blood sacrifice of Jesus, 2000 years ago.  As His child, I can be assured that He will listen to me and answer my questions, statements, and pleas for help. Today, March 16, 2020 President Trump declared that the United States is in a war with a world wide enemy - Corvid 19 or the Corona Virus.  This fast moving killer of the elderly and weak invaded the world and has spread like a meteor strike.  Many people have felt the effects of this virus personally for them I raise my pleas that God will give them comfort, healing, and peace.  For those indirectly affected, I ask that God will pour His peace of spirit and knowledge into their hearts and minds.  I am asking all of my brothers and sisters in the LORD JESUS CHRIST to pray continually and diligently that God will move swiftly to eradicate this horrible threat to humanity.  I pray that God g...

Lessons in Life

 Each day the Lord opens His heart to His children and demonstrates the way to make wise decisions and choices. Yet all too often people close their eyes and ears to what is really happening around them.  They do no see the needs of people - physical, mental, spiritual.  People need to look for ways to open their minds to the guidance of God.   Watch for chances to serve others and to celebrate their strengths and hopes. Wait for God to open doors or windows for you to move through. Pray daily, in humility and desire to follow Jesus more closely. Please Lord Jesus pour your love through me on to others - strangers, friends, family.  Guide my thoughts so that I continually seek to know you in a real loving relationship.  Give me the strength of spirit to do what you want done.  Let me hide myself in you - my Rock and my Salvation.  Amen WATCH WAIT PRAY

Growing in God's garden

God has planted a beautiful garden that grows and produces fruit.  As he tends his garden, He often prunes and removes dead growth.  During this time, the pain of the process cause His children to accuse Him of rejecting them.  God grows an organized well structured garden and desires the best for each person. Now during this time of pandemic and hate, more than ever before the Children of God must deepen their roots and offer shelter to those in need.  The question becomes how. God offers patterns for Spiritual Growth -  1. Assurance of Salvation - Do you know in your heart that you are saved?  Read 1 John 5:13 2. Understanding you are forgiven - The one willing sacrifice of Jesus who gave His life for you is all you need.  Read Ephesians 1:7 3.  Desire to study the Word of God - read the Life manual of God daily.  1 Peter 2;2 4. Pray CONSTANTLY - communicate with God always about all things  Philippians 4:6 5. Be a witness for Jesus by...
