Bible Verse of The Day – 11-21-21 – A Place I Will Show You

Please click to watch the video now.Greetings in the mighty name of Jesus! 

We trust that you’re experiencing God’s faithfulness in your lives each and every day. 

Sometimes God will tell us to do something out of the ordinary, like He did when He told Abram to leave his family and his country, and go to a land that He would show him. 

In today’s video, A Place That I Will Show You, we teach on this from a Biblical and  personal viewpoint, and we share how God leads during those times of transition. 

These are important things for us to understand as we walk out the steps He has placed before us. So, we hope you’ll take the 10 minutes needed to give this a watch.

Enjoy your day and keep trusting God in everything that you do.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-8-21

Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Sometimes God’s plans can be scary when we see them beginning to play out in our lives.

Our carnal minds can’t comprehend what’s happening. We may even question God and what He’s doing.

As children of God, we often seek Him and ask Him to guide us. But when He does, we don’t always recognize it. Especially at the onset.

Because it’s something new, we deem it as foreign. And if we’re not careful, we may even attribute it to the enemy, thinking that it’s bad for us.

But this is where our faith in God comes in. We have to test what we’re seeing and hearing, and then trust Him, allowing the Holy Spirit to show us what’s truly happening.

And we have to remember that God knows better than we do when it comes to guiding our steps and providing for us.

So, when we see things happening that seem out of the ordinary, or a bit scary because they’re unfamiliar, we need to let Him be God and do what He does best.

Remember; His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts.

Isaiah 55:9 (NKJV) 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

Trust Him.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-7-21

Psalm 16:11 (NKJV) 11 You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

The path of life; the place where we move toward Him, one step at a time.

He places our feet on that path. He gives us everything we need to walk that path.

He leads us. He guides us. He teaches us, convicts us, chastens us, encourages us, forgives us.

The rest is up to us. Do we walk this path and please Him? Or do we wander from it and please ourselves?

Sometimes this path can be hard. Things can come our way that hurt and make life difficult for a season.

Those things will typically draw us closer to God if we let them.

God can use them to teach us, shape us and mold us, if we let Him.

The question is, “will we let Him?”.

Will we follow Him, through good times and tough times, letting Him teach us? Or will we do our best to avoid discomfort, and step off the path in order to seek comfort and “the warm fuzzies”?

Sometimes the best thing for us is a good dose of truth. Truth can be uncomfortable. Sometimes it can downright hurt.

But truth will set us free if we let it.

We just have to let it. We have to be willing to embrace the truth in a way that helps us bear the pain and discomfort of making whatever changes need to be made for us to get free of the things that hurt us and rip us away from God and the path He has for us.

Will we seek truth and embrace it? Will we let God help us get free of the things that hurt us and try to destroy our relationship with Him?

Truth and freedom the hard way, or lies and the path of least resistance?

The choice is ours.

God has set a path before each of us as individuals. He has also set a path before the church as a whole.

This is 1 of 2 videos. It’s informative and eye-opening, so we hope you’ll watch it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-8-19

2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Do we pout when God asks us to do something or go somewhere, and it’s not what we wanted to do or where we wanted to go?

Pouting with God does not make Him change His plans. Sorry. He will just find someone else that will be willing to do it.

But, remember, He would have preferred the person He asked first to do it, for many reasons.

One reason may be that He equipped and prepared them already for the task, and that took time. Now, asking someone else may cause a delay.

Another reason may be that the person that He has to ask now is being pulled from their post in order to do someone else’s task.

If God is tugging on our heart to come and take a step of faith in a direction we have never gone before, we shouldn’t walk away, pout, or try to fit it into our plans and our preferences. Just take the step into the unknown and see what amazing things He will pull out of it all!

Psalm 100:3 (NKJV) 3 Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

Be honored to serve Him in such a way, and let fulfillment and joy come from it all.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-12-19

Ecclesiastes 2:11 (NKJV) 11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done And on the labor in which I had toiled; And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun.

As I sat in the parking lot of a local shopping center today, I pondered on many things as I watched cars come and go, and people busily going about their shopping.

We are in the beginning of a season of major change, the details of which God is revealing to us a little at a time. So, we are both a bit excited, nervous and expectant as we wait for God to show us more.

As I watched everyone today, and as I went over some things in my mind, I began to feel the tremendous weight of what God is bringing us through. There are so many unknowns right now.

But we trust Him in everything, so there is no fear in any of this even though we may not know the when and the how of it all.

Most of all, as I sat and took all of the busyness in that was all around me, I became acutely aware of how fragile life is and how so many of us spend our lives chasing after things that, in the grand scheme of things, don’t matter one iota.

We are all guilty of this to one degree or another. And it’s not that we are terrible people because of it. After all, God does want us to have some pleasure in our lives.

But God showed me how all of this “chasing after the wind” affects our lives; how it bogs us down and causes us to lose sight of what’s really important.

If we are sensitive to God’s spirit, we will feel the tug of war going on between the things of God and the pull of the world on us. It will be like a wrestling match between darkness and light, apathy and passion, idleness and activity.

This battle won’t leave us alone until we do whatever it is that God is prompting us to do, or until we become hard and begin to ignore Him, eventually closing Him out completely.

It’s critical that we don’t let ourselves get to that point, where we close Him out. We need to stay sensitive to Him and His promptings.

How do we do this? We be careful not to let so many of these other things pull on us and take us away from Him. We make sure that we don’t get caught up things that steal our time and our affections.

Enjoy life. Live it to the fullest. But always, always, always put God first in everything.

Matthew 6:33 (NKJV) 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-14-18

John 10:27 (NKJV) 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

We hear God’s voice and we follow Him.

Where do we need to follow Him to today? Is He speaking to our hearts and asking us to change up some things? Maybe our language or our negative thoughts at times? Is He asking us to give up some things, like maybe television, certain things on the internet, or frivolous spending?

Is He asking us to step out in areas where we need to do something that will make a difference in our situation, for instance maybe tithing and the giving of our firstfruits to Him?

When God prompts us to do something, He doesn’t tell us to just take our time and ponder on it. And He doesn’t ask us to give Him a time frame as to when we will get around to it or fit it into our schedule.

There are no questions asked, and no negotiating. It is what it is and the terms are how God wants them to be. We, His sheep, are to hear it and to follow.

He will be sure to let us know when we need to make a change or a move, when we need to pull back, and when we need to be strong and press in. Don’t get too caught up in the details. Just follow what He puts in front of us.

Psalm 121:8 (NKJV) 8 The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in From this time forth, and even forevermore.

​​​​​​​Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-8-18

Psalm 37:23 (NKJV) 23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way. 

Many people ask how to know if they are following God’s plan for their life. It’s one of the most common questions we get. 

There are many different things we could say about this. But for today, let’s stick with the text of this particular verse. 

It says that the steps of a good man (person) are ordered by the Lord.  So, what does that tell you? Whose steps are ordered by the Lord? Those of a good man! 

So, based on this, we know that if we want to know God’s plan for our lives, and know that we are walking on the path He has chosen for us, we need to be “good”. 

What does God mean by good? Righteous. 

God orders the steps of a righteous man (or woman). It’s important to understand that there are two forms of righteousness. 

First, we are made righteous by the blood of Jesus. When we put our faith and trust in Jesus, His blood washes us and makes us clean. We instantly become righteous, by His blood. 

Second, we live righteously by following God’s word, applying it on a personal level and walking it out daily. 

It’s the second part that helps us to “find His path” and discern what the steps are that He has ordered for us. 

As we walk this out, we ultimately begin to walk in the steps God has ordered for us. And the funny part is that it tends to happen without us even realizing it. It’s gradual, a little at a time. 

And then one day we look back and we see where God has brought us from. And we begin to see and understand that the steps we took were not ours. They were His. 

And what’s better than this? The fact that God delights in our way! 

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-3-18

Romans 8:25 (NKJV) 25 But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.

Start this new year off by asking God for vision, to see the things that need to be changed in our lives, our homes, our finances, our work, or our ministry.

Lay it all out before Him, and then wait on Him.

God knows the things that need to be fixed, and He knows how to fix them. He knows what it will take and what will turn it around and make it work.

Write down the things He puts on our hearts and ask Him how to do it. Ask Him for the plan and the wisdom to do it. Let Him direct our steps.

God will place His vision within us and yes, it is fun and very exciting at times.

But we can’t think that once we have the vision that we can just pick up the ball and run with it on our own. That’s not how it works, and people that do this end up in a mess or in great failure.

Let Him work out the details and give us His strategy and timing. It may not come all at once, but in little pieces. Wait for it, moving one step at a time, and enjoy every moment of it.

God is precious, and the things He does for His children, He takes to heart.
