Bible Verse of The Day – 5-7-24

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

I must remind myself of this truth continually.

I can be going along one day, strong in my walk, and then wake up another day with my mind and emotions getting the best of me, and I start to doubt.

I know I’m not alone in this. I have learned we need God even in our thinking process.

Spending too much time thinking is not good. Our thoughts can sometimes hinder our walk with God.

We must balance it.

We should take time to ponder on things. We need to recognize the reality of things. But we should not “over-ponder” them.

There is a line we cannot cross. If we do, we then go into worrying.

How do we know when we have crossed that line?

It’s easy. We can tell by the way it is affecting us that we crossed the line.

When we start to worry or be concerned to the point where it is all we think about, or when we see it is consuming us, we’ve gone too far.

We need to pull ourselves together, lay it down at the cross, and walk by faith.

Praising God despite not having all the answers is huge.

Praising God in the midst of a storm will move mountains.

If we choose to praise God when everything around us is causing us to doubt, it’s in these moments that God sees our hearts and how much we truly trust Him.

Praise Him today, no matter what it is that is trying to take us down.

Praise Him, by knowing Who He is in this storm; our strength and song.

Exodus 15:2 (NKJV) 2 The Lord is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father’s God, and I will exalt Him.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-24-19

Hebrews 13:5 (NKJV) 5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

We can smile all we want and pretend like nothing is wrong around people that we know and love, but God knows what is deep within our hearts.

He knows the things that eat away at us night and day. He knows that we won’t talk about it to others because we are afraid that we will be rejected for our thoughts, concerns and our actions. All the meanwhile it keeps growing and getting bigger and stronger within us.

God sees it. It is like poison eating away at us, and the only way to get help is to go to Him and ask for it. He won’t leave us for saying what we have to say to Him.  It’s alright and it is up to us to share it with Him.

Will we live with it for another day, or will we get the help we need to take care of it?

There are things in this world that can defeat us, and they will if we try to survive them on our own. But the Lord has overcome them and He will help us to be overcomers as well! Amen.

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 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.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-22-18

John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

It’s important to be alert to what is going on around us. The thief that comes to steal from us is always on the prowl. But no matter what he tries to do, we can get through it as we let God show us the way to win.

Sometimes we feel discouraged and we wonder if there is even a point in trying anymore. It feels like one thing after the other. We just get through something and then we are hit again with something else.

But here’s the thing; There is a point.

1 John 4:4 (NKJV) 4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

We are of God, and will come through it.

We have His greatness in us, working through us, to make sure of this. His hand can reach us and His plan for us stands, no matter what comes our way, as long as we hold onto Him tightly.

Don’t let the thief steal our joy, kill our hope, or destroy our faith. Stand on the promise of our Father. Take hold of His hand today, and walk.

Numbers 11:23 (NKJV) 23 And the Lord said to Moses, “Has the Lord’s arm been shortened? Now you shall see whether what I say will happen to you or not.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-30-18

Matthew 9:23-25 (NKJV) 23 When Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the flute players and the noisy crowd wailing, 24 He said to them, “Make room, for the girl is not dead, but sleeping.” And they ridiculed Him. 25 But when the crowd was put outside, He went in and took her by the hand, and the girl arose. 

Jesus had the crowd put outside. Why? Because He knew they doubted Him. 

Sometimes we can be our own worst enemy. We want to believe. We want to see God move. But we don’t really believe. We doubt. 

Doubt is the number one enemy when it comes to seeing God move on our behalf. 

You see, Jesus knew that if He allowed those people to stay in the room, the little girl would not be healed and resurrected. He knew they doubted Him. They actually ridiculed Him when He spoke. 

By having the doubters removed, He created an atmosphere that was conducive to faith, and free of doubt. 

Sometimes it is hard to believe. Sometimes doubt can be so big in our face that it’s hard to see past it. 

But it’s up to us to ask God to help us with our doubt. He just wants us to cry out and ask Him! God won’t turn us away because of it. On the contrary, He will help us believe! 

Mark 9:24 (NKJV) 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” 

We urge you today, let God help your unbelief. Don’t struggle all your life with doubt and unbelief, tossed like a wave on the sea. 

James 1:6-8 (NKJV) 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. 

Just cry out to Him, saying “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!”. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-4-17

John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 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.”

These are very powerful words.

Jesus spoke of the fact that in the world, we will have tribulation. But, He told us to be of good cheer. He also promised that in Him, we would have peace.

How? How can we have peace in the midst of tribulation? How can we be of good cheer while being tossed about by a storm?

By way of the fact that He has overcome the world. That’s how!

The world, as Jesus spoke of it, doesn’t just refer to the people of the world… the unbelievers or those who do evil. But He referred more to the world as a whole. The ways of the world, the evil in the world, the storms of life and the things we face each and every day.

These things can and will wear us down if we let them. They will suck the life out of us if we try to face them on our own, by our own power, strength and understanding.

Instead, Jesus reassured us that He has already overcome the world. And because of this, if our faith and trust are in Him, then we can also overcome the world, and all of the things in it.

He didn’t promise that it would be easy. He didn’t promise that it would happen instantly. He didn’t promise that we would be able to understand it all. He simply promised that, because He overcame the world, we could have peace and joy because of His victory. And because He overcame the world, we can also be overcomers in Christ.

So, as we feel the weight of the cares of this world on our shoulders, we need to pull our strength from Him, and stand up. And as we stand up, we need to speak to our storm and say “Peace, be still”!

Mark 4:39 (NKJV) 39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.
