Joel 2:28

Jesus said; “I tell you, whoever publicly acknowledges me, the Son of Man will also acknowledge before the angels of God. But whoever publicly disowns me will be disowned before the angels of God. And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. “When you are brought before synagogues, rulers and authorities, do not worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say, for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.” Luke 12:8-12

Your Part

Matthew 22:36-38 “Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?” Jesus replied, “‘You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.

Faith Is

James 2:14-17 What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do? So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.

HOPE

Romans 8:23-25 And we believers also groan, even though we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, for we long for our bodies to be released from sin and suffering. We, too, wait with eager hope for the day when God will give us our full rights as his adopted children, including the new bodies he has promised us. We were given this hope when we were saved. (If we already have something, we don’t need to hope for it. But if we look forward to something we don’t yet have, we must wait patiently and confidently.)

Trust In The Lord

What do you do when life questions your faith, and all the dreams you had seem like they're drifting away? It takes all of your strength just to make it through the day, but through it all keep on trusting God. What do you do when you cried all you can? When you have to wear a smile when you hurt deep inside? What do you do when there is no one you can call? Through it all though it's hard, and I may have to cry sometimes, I've got to keep trusting Him! Deitrick Haddon Trusting God

Trust Me

Lord, be merciful to me and hear my prayer, teach me to trust in You and lean not on my own understanding, so You won't have to knock my feet our from under me to get my attention. ~Amen~

My Soul Finds Rest In God Alone

Psalm 62:5-8 Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken. My victory and honor come from God alone. He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me. O my people, trust in him at all times. Pour out your heart to him, for God is our refuge.

Let Go And Let God

Soak In The Spirit

For Such A Time As This

I Am Blessed Because I Believed The Lord Would Do What He Said!

Trusting God

John 12:44-50 Jesus shouted to the crowds, “If you trust me, you are trusting not only me, but also God who sent me. For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me. I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark. I will not judge those who hear me but don’t obey me, for I have come to save the world and not to judge it. But all who reject me and my message will be judged on the day of judgment by the truth I have spoken. I don’t speak on my own authority. The Father who sent me has commanded me what to say and how to say it. And I know his commands lead to eternal life; so I say whatever the Father tells me to say.”

Thankful

From Our Hearts

Our life comes from our heart, and we must guard our heart with all diligence. Great reservoirs provided by our water companies supply hundreds of streets and thousands of houses. The heart is the reservoir of man. Our life flows through our mouth, hands, and eyes; but comes from the central reservoir, the heart. Therefore, we have to keep our hearts in the proper condition, or all that flows through the pipes will be corrupt.

God is the only one who knows the natural wickedness of our hearts: Jeremiah 17:9 The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked.

The only one who can renew them: Ezekiel 36:25-26 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean. Your filth will be washed away, and you will no longer worship idols. And I will give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in you. I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.

Micah 6:8

One Soul, One Love, One Heart

My soul must come under the hand of the Spirit; just as a piece of clay on the potter’s wheel revolves, is touched by the fingers of the potter, and is molded into what he wishes it to be, I must lie passively in the hand of the Spirit of God. He must work in me to will and do of his own good pleasure. Then I can begin to work out my own salvation with fear and trembling, but never, never until then. I must have more than nature can give me, more than my mother and my father gave me, more than flesh and blood can produce. I must have the Spirit of God from Heaven. What is the best evidence I received him? That I rest upon Christ Jesus alone for salvation.

No Greater Love

There is no greater love than the love You have for me Lord. You gave Your life on Calvary so I am free to tell You of my love, worship, honor, praise and adoration constantly. I sing Your praises all the day long. I worship You above all else! There is no adequate way to express the depth, height, and width of this amazing love You put inside me!

Ordinary People

James 4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor.

Keep Your Eyes On Jesus

Never take your eyes off Jesus!
Keep your eyes on the prize!
Hebrews 12:1-3
God’s Discipline Proves His Love - Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us. We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting him, he endured the cross, disregarding its shame. Now he is seated in the place of honor beside God’s throne. Think of all the hostility he endured from sinful people; then you won’t become weary and give up.

King Of The Jews

Luke 23:32-38 There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death. And when they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left. Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.”

And they divided His garments and cast lots. And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.” The soldiers also mocked Him, coming and offering Him sour wine, and saying, “If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself.”

And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew:
THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

A Prayer of Praise

Jude:1:24-25 Now all glory to God, who is able to keep you from falling away and will bring you with great joy into his glorious presence without a single fault. All glory to him who alone is God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.
