Category: God’s Faithfulness

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-14-12

(2 Tim 2:13 NKJV)  If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.

God is absolute. He is the only absolute in this shaky world that we live in.

We have all been and will continue to be unfaithful, in one way or another. But God will never be unfaithful.

Even when we have been faithless and have acted as though He isn’t there, He is steadfast and solid. He cannot deny Himself. It’s impossible.

Are you on shaky ground today? Does it seem like the world is crumbling around you? Have you done things or said things that you regret and wish you could take back? Does it maybe even feel like you’ve abandoned God and your faith in Him?

Rest in knowing that he has not turned His back on you, regardless of what you might have said or done. He is faithful. He’s right where we left Him, waiting for us to turn back to Him.

Don’t wait another minute. Turn back to Him right now and fall into His open arms of mercy, compassion and forgiveness.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-11-12

(1 Pet 3:12 KJV)  For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

God watches over us. We don’t have to worry. We just have to follow, listen and obey.

There is always going to be something that will try to pull on us, distract us and try to take our focus off the important things that we need to get done in a day. It will try to cause us to be so busy and so overwhelmed that we can’t even move, instead we are exhausted from our thoughts of trying to figure out how we are going to complete the things that we need to get done.

Before we start our day, ask God to give us His sound mind, and help us to focus and get done the things we need to get done in that day. His eyes are over us, His ears are open to us…Let Him guide us!!

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-2-12

(Heb 4:16 NKJV)  Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Have you ever made a mistake? Of course, we all have.

Have you ever been told that you have made mistakes that are too big to be forgiven for? I think most of us can also say that this is true… that we have all been told this or we have felt like this at some point in time.

Well, let me tell you today that this is a lie straight from hell. There is nothing that we can do that God can’t forgive us for if we sincerely repent and ask Him to forgive us.

His word tells us that we can come boldly to the throne of Grace, where we can obtain mercy and grace to help us in times of need.

How much more can we ask for?

If you’re struggling with feeling like God has forsaken you or that you’ve let Him down, go to Him. Repent for anything you might have done and ask Him to forgive you. And then trust that you are forgiven, because His word says so.

Walk in His peace and joy today, knowing that you are abundantly blessed.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-29-12

(Deu 10:17 NKJV)  “For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe.

As I was driving home from running some errands, I pondered on what today’s Bible Verse would be about. All I heard was “Great God”. So I looked that up and this is what God lead me to.

We serve the God of all creation; the creator of all we see.

He is the God of gods and Lord of lords. There is none like Him or above Him.

He holds the world in His hands. Nothing that happens surprises Him.

This is who we call Father, Healer, Provider, and Creator. He knows us better than we know ourselves. He knew us before we were born.

He has called us to Himself, to love Him and to be loved.

Stop what you’re doing right now and thank Him for who He is. Tell Him how much you love Him. It’s what we were created for.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-22-12

(Phil 4:11-12 NKJV) Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: {12} I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

Paul was content whether he was doing well or not so well. But nevertheless He knew that God would come through and deliver him at all times. He knew that His life was with God no matter what happened to Him and that was all He needed.

We are a child of the Almighty God! He is our Father. He cares about us, He loves us dearly and He wants the best for us!

Believe Him for that new job, new car, bigger pay increase, to be able to stay home with your children, to deliver your teen from bad influences, to give you a child you’ve been waiting for, to restore your broken marriage, to heal you and to bring on the breakthrough that you need.

Love Him today with all your heart and sing to Him. Talk to Him…tell Him how wonderful He is and thank Him for taking good care of you.

We can be content in HIM… He is all we need!

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-19-12

(1 Cor 15:57 NKJV)  But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Be encouraged today. Know that no matter what you’re going through, there will be victory!

We don’t always know how or when the victory will come, but it will come.

We don’t always know what that victory will look like, but God will give us victory.

If you’re going through a trial or a struggle today, we call forth the victory in the name of Jesus!

Lift up your head and look to the One who gives life. He is our sustainer, our provider and our redeemer. There is nothing too big for Him to handle.

No matter what’s standing in front of you right now and no matter how difficult your circumstances are right now, stand knowing that God has the final word.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-17-12

(1 Pet 2:15 NKJV)  For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men…

If we put God first in our daily walk we may find days when will have to sacrifice the things we want to do in order to do the things He wants us to do.

At first it may be really challenging, but as we continue it will get better and after a while we won’t even think much about it; it will come naturally.

Knowing how to do good comes from reading God’s Word and being taught right from wrong. Then, we take the steps and apply them to our everyday situations.

Sometimes we may not know the right thing to do at the moment some situations occur. Always wait on God, He will never steer us wrong.

God is a Good God!!

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-10-12

(Gen 16:2 NKJV)  So Sarai said to Abram, “See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing children. Please, go in to my maid; perhaps I shall obtain children by her.” And Abram heeded the voice of Sarai.

I suppose at the time that Sarai told Abraham this, she thought it was a good idea… a good way to either help God out or to make up for what she saw was God’s lack of action.

Have we ever done something like this? Have we ever gotten impatient with God and His timing and done something on our own because we just thought we needed to take care of it ourselves?

I can guarantee you that any time we’ve fallen into this trap and done things ourselves, instead of waiting on God when He has told us to wait, we’ve wound up in more trouble than we were in to start with.

Sometimes it can be hard to discern the voice of God and understand His timing completely, but as we draw closer to Him and begin to understand Him better, we’re less likely to make the same kind of mistake that Sarai made. And believe it or not, the entire civilization of the world is still paying for Sarai’s mistake, even today.

Let’s wait on God’s timing and learn how to make good decisions!

Your Daily Bible Verse – 3-3-12

(Luke 1:38 NKJV)  Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.

In the verse above, one of God’s angels had come to Mary to tell her that she was chosen to be the mother of God’s son. Mary received this word and accepted the assignment that God had for her.

Sometimes when God reveals things to us, it can be a little tough to swallow, even when it’s not necessarily a bad thing. I remember very clearly when God revealed to us that he was calling us to be pastors, we cried our eyes out. I remember thinking “no God, anything but pastors”!

As it turned out, the calling didn’t happen overnight and God took the time to prepare us for what He was asking us to do. And by the time it actually happened a few years later, we were pretty settled with it.

The thing is, we have a choice as to whether we want to accept God’s path for our life or choose our own path. Sometimes it looks easier to choose our own path because we think it requires less effort and less commitment. But in reality, if God chooses to use us for a specific task, He will prepare us and shape us for that task.

It’s not always easy, but it’s sure to be easier than any path we choose ourselves.

Your Daily Bible Verse – 2-29-12

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

How many of us are facing something today that man says is impossible to overcome?

Have you lost your job? Has someone you love betrayed you? Are you seeking healing for an affliction? Is there something in your life that you just can’t seem to overcome, no matter how hard you try?

Is it alcohol, drugs, lust, pornography, cigarettes, weightloss? None of these things is too big for God. Seriously.

We may face many, many obstacles in life and some of them may seem too big to overcome. And this might be true with man.

But with God, nothing is impossible. He is the God of making the impossible, possible!

I know this may seem like something that’s easier to say than to do, but sometimes we need to really stretch ourselves and BELIEVE that God can do what He says He can do.

Sometimes all we need to do is put forth the effort and believe God for the results. Other times, we just need to trust God 110% and let Him take care of it.

Listen for His voice and hear what He has to say about your situation, your dilemma or your trial.

With God all things are possible.

Your Daily Bible Verse – 2-28-12

(1 Cor 1:9 NKJV)  God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

God is FAITHFUL!

Last week, I had a scare! My grandson, age 4 yrs. old, fell down a whole flight of wooden basement stairs, about 13 of them. He had his blanket over his head and was walking around and took a wrong turn. The extent of his injuries was just a few bumps and bruises on his legs, the areas where he was not covered by his blanket. Do you know not one bump on His head or face? Wherever that blanket covered him, he was untouched.

I believe that is the way it is with the blood of Jesus, God’s covering for us. Whatever part of us we give to Jesus, we are covered!  Whether we give him our finances, our emotions, our jobs, our kids and even our spouses, etc.

We give it to Jesus and ask for His help and protection and He will keep whatever part we give Him safe as we trust Him with it and follow His directions.  We’re not saying we won’t ever have to go through tough times, His word tells us that tribulations do come… (John 16:33 NKJV)  “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Things do happen. What we’re saying is those things we lay down and trust Him with, He will take care of.

Plead the Blood of Jesus over all that He has blessed you with today and be free…no more bumps and bruises!
