Bible Verse of The Day – 5-11-17

Romans 8:28 (NKJV) 28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

It’s funny how sometimes you see a verse and it just speaks loud and clear to whatever we may be facing.

That is God. He is alive! He knows what we need when we need it whether we are in moments of despair or moments of celebration. His word is amazing and works in perfect timing!

What a wonderful, compassionate, loving and kind-hearted God we serve. Amen.

Do you know today that you mean everything to Him, and as you love Him back He will work everything out for GOOD?

Have a lovely day and keep seeking Him!!

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 – 3-7-17

Proverbs 30:5 (NKJV) 5 Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him.

As we sat down by the water early this morning and watched the sunrise over the ocean waters, I was reminded of how blessed we all are.

Looking around at such beauty every day is just one of the ways that God reminds us of His love for us. Every day we can open our eyes and see His creation. Every day we can feel His love. Every day we can know how much we mean to Him, as we just open our eyes and look around.

Children of God, we are a blessed people. Enjoy today. Praise Him in all that our eyes can see. His love for us is so strong. He cares greatly. We can see it everywhere.

Trust Him with our lives. He is faithful to shield and protect us.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-7-17

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (NKJV) 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails.

Love is powerful. It unites, builds and heals.

If your marriage, family or relationships, etc., are falling apart, it is love that will help fix them.

Life can take its toll on us all, and our hearts can get pretty cold and hard over different things we go through. We can point fingers and say it’s so and so’s fault. And it may seem like we get some relief by blaming others for it. But it won’t change it or make it any better.

If we want to fix things on our end, we truly need to give it to God. Let Him step in. He is an expert at loving and He will teach us how it’s done.

The love that God has doesn’t give up when things get uncomfortable, or because something didn’t turn out the way we thought. This love doesn’t stop when things get too hard and complicated. Instead, it gets stronger.

Jesus Christ was God’s example to us on how to walk in such love. He never gave up on us.

There may be times that, because of love, we have to take a strong stand about something. But if we do it out of love, and with the right motive, no matter how it looks we will win!

Don’t give up. LOVE never fails.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-4-16

Matthew 11:28 (NKJV) 28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Sometimes we receive questions from people by email, asking about different subjects and topics.

One question we’ve gotten a few times is whether Jesus came and died for everyone, or was it just for the Jews.

The verse above states very plainly that He came for all humanity. He never made any kind of reference, anywhere, to a specific ethnic group, skin color, etc. “Come to me, all”.

The word “all” is inclusive of everyone. No one is left out!

John 3:16 (NKJV) 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

The “world” is all inclusive. It leaves no one out, ever. Amen!

So if you ever doubt that Jesus died for every human being, regardless of who they are or where they’re from, don’t doubt any longer.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-16-16

Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJV) 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

We can get sidetracked pretty easily sometimes. When this happens, we can even lose sight of the thoughts that God has toward us. Today is a little reminder of how He thinks toward us all.

The devil would love for us to think that we are not included in this verse, maybe because we have done many things wrong against God.

But, the truth is that our name is in this verse. We have all done things wrong at one time or another and God gives us a chance to fix things. God truly loves us and wants the best future for us.

Matthew 18:22 (NKJV) 22 Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.

We serve a GRACIOUS Father. It’s not too late for us to give Him first place. We have to want to. We have to reach a point in our walk where we are sick and tired of the wrong things we do and want to do what’s right. We have to hate the sin and love God and righteous living MORE than we love the sin.

Are we there yet? Are we willing to hate that which pushes us away from our loving Father?

Only we can answer that question. And only then can we take the steps to get close to Him and let Him help us have the future He wants to give us.

If we are alive and breathing then it is NOT too late. And yes, the offer still stands, no matter how far we have fallen, but we have to be willing to CHANGE.

Today is a new day and a fresh start.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-15-15

Romans 8:38-39 (NKJV) 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Have you ever wondered if God would turn His back on you and abandon you?

Let us reassure you that God’s love transcends all boundaries and obstacles that we could possibly dream up.

God is not a fair weather God. He’s not here for us only when we’re on top of our game and doing everything just right.

God loves us in spite of ourselves, in spite of our shortcomings and in spite of our faults.

It’s because of these things that we so desperately need Him and it is these very things that He wants to help us overcome and have victory over.

Romans 5:8 (NKJV) 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

So if you’re living in fear or if you’ve been doubting His love for you, take rest in knowing that He loves us so much that Christ died for us, even while we were still sinners.

You. Are. Loved.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-9-15

Romans 5:8 (NKJV) 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

We were in NC when we got a request to visit a dying man, in CT. They had taken him off the defibrillator and it was just a matter of time before he would be gone.

As we prayed to God in NC, we asked Him that if we don’t make it back in time, that someone else would share the gospel with this man; that he would not die unsaved. God heard our prayer.

We left NC to drive home to RI, and on our way home we hit a very bad storm; extreme ice and snow. People’s cars were off the road all around us, many in the ditch, some even upside down. We had many hours to travel under these conditions to reach our destination. The further we drove, the worse the storm got.

A trip that should have taken us 12 hours, took us18 1/2 hours. We were determined to return to RI, though, and not quit. We needed to get home.

And we did. We made it home, safe and sound. Thank God!

When we went to the hospital to visit the man, we shared God’s love with him. We let him know we are all sinners and yet God loves us all and provided a way for us to be forgiven. When he heard these words you could almost feel him relax. He listened to what we had to say and when it came time to pray he was ready.

After we got done praying, his reaction was, “that felt nice”.

With nurses and different staff members in and out of his room, he asked if we could talk more, as he would call it, “about religion.” We spent a bit more time with him and then headed home.

The very next day, this man took his last breath and is in now in Heaven! Amen

God made a way for this man to hear the truth, almost until his very last breath. He will make a way for us all.

He loves us no matter how bad we are at times. He wants us to know this.

God doesn’t love the sin that we participate in, but He sure does love the Sinner, and will love us to the end and give us every opportunity to reach out to HIm.

He sent His Son for each one of us; this is the Good NEWS!

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-29-14

John 15:13 (NKJV) 13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.

Have you ever questioned God’s love for you?

Have you ever doubted that God could love any of us?

I have. You see, I’m a thinker. I have a personality type that makes me a logical person. I like to reason things out and try to understand everything.

And to be honest, sometimes I have thought long and hard about whether God really loves us as much as so many people tell us that He does. You know, unconditionally.

I mean, the vast majority of us are really quite unlovable once we get past our church faces and our public facades. And I don’t say that to be rude or accusing. It’s just the way it is with so many of us.

We can have bad habits. We can think bad thoughts. We can do bad things to each other. We can just be downright mean sometimes. And we do this while trying to convince everyone how nice we are or how godly we are.

So I’ve asked God about it, on many different occasions. One of those occasions was this past weekend while I was out fishing.

And it isn’t some deep question. I just asked Him if He really does love us unconditionally. And He answered me rather quickly. YES.

He does love us unconditionally. And the proof is in the fact that He sent His son to die for us, even while we were (and are still) vial sinners.

Romans 5:8 (NKJV) 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

So if you’re a logical thinker like me, rest your weary, inquisitive, logical mind and know that you are, in fact, loved by the Creator, very, very much!

And here’s one more little tidbit for you to start the week off with. Being a logical thinker doesn’t mean that I have to have answers for all of my questions. It just means that I have to have bigger faith in an awesome God 🙂
