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 – 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.
