Bible Verse of The Day – 11-11-22

Psalm 27:13-14 (NKJV) 13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.

This verse has recently become more and more meaningful to me.

Why?

Because as we have all faced increasing amounts of evil in our everyday lives, it has magnified the goodness of God in everything that I see.

That may seem counterintuitive, so let me explain.

In the natural, seeing such an explosion of evil at play would normally cause me to become really irritated at the huge amount of injustice we’re seeing.

And it does, in the natural realm.

But as God has taught me and helped me to mature spiritually, the massive presence of evil has caused His goodness to be magnified, giving me a stronger appreciation for who He is.

No, that doesn’t remove the evil presence, and it doesn’t undo what the evil is doing.

But it causes me to change my perspective and stop focusing on the evil, focusing instead on Him and His goodness.

And with that comes a greater joy and a stronger peace that only He can give.

We encourage you to let God do the same for you, giving you peace amid the turmoil that surrounds us, even as the fires of evil rage.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-8-22

Psalm 107:8 (NKJV) 8 Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

Today was the first day we started to feel better after being very sick with a virus.

Boy, it sure does remind us how fragile we are when we get hit with something this powerful. It makes you really stop and think about how blessed we are to have a Heavenly Father who cares for us.

Thank God He is with us and helps us to get back on our feet again no matter what we face.

Earlier today I took a ride to get some fresh air. We had been indoors for quite a while.

Nothing is more enjoyable to me than the fresh ocean breeze and the warmth of the sunshine, all of which we can take advantage of if we are careful not to get too busy with our everyday routine and schedules.

Today I sat by the beautiful intracoastal waterway that’s just down the road from our home. I marveled at the power in the seas; how there is so much life going on underneath the water that we can’t see most of the time.

And then there’s all the life on top of the water; sail boats and motor boats floating by, as well as kayaking, paddle boarding, and jet skis.

It just amazes me to know we all have so much beauty at our fingertips to enjoy, even if we live in different areas of the world.

But, are we taking advantage of them? Are we enjoying the blessings of the Lord that are right in front of us, in our home towns?

I hope so. I pray that in the middle of whatever is taking up all our time we would find a nice balance and be able to enjoy these simple little things in life that bring so much joy.

Plan some time out. Make it happen for you and your family. Enjoy the goodness of the Lord and all the beauty He has blessed us with.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-10-22

Psalm 27:13 (NKJV) 13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.

Lately I have been spending a lot of time contemplating and reflecting on the goodness of God

The longer I am alive, the more God’s goodness becomes glaringly obvious to me.

In fact, not only is it more obvious, but it’s becoming more and more impossible to avoid or deny it.

What we are seeing in the world right now is shocking. The amount of evil playing out right before our eyes sometimes leaves me (almost) speechless because of the degree to which it is being taken, and the brazenness of it.

It is shocking. It’s not normal to our senses because we have never been exposed to these levels of evil.

In reality, though, God told us through His prophets that this would happen.

He warned us all about these types of things and these kinds of people.

So, not a single one of us should be surprised by it.

On that note, though, I want to encourage everyone who is reading this.

In spite of all of this evil, God is still the same God He has always been.

And He is still on His throne. He is still in control. Not a single thing that we’re seeing surprises Him.

So, it’s important that we keep our focus on Him through it all.

No, we don’t stick our heads in the sand and pretend it isn’t real. It is real.

But we don’t let it pull us away from God. On the contrary, we let it push us closer to God.

And in that growing closeness we will find our solace; our peace and the answers to our ever-growing list of questions and concerns.

No, we may not understand everything. We may not get answers to every question that we have.

But if we have Holy Spirit-led understanding, that’s enough. Enough to ease our minds and give us rest in Him.

And resting in Him is exactly where we should be.

So, look to Him. Hold fast to Him. And trust Him as you never have before as we walk through these historic, Biblical days.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-30-20

Psalm 27:13 (NKJV) 13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.

The goodness of God. If we were to think and ponder on our lives, we would have to admit that it’s the goodness of God that keeps us going.

It’s the grace and mercy of God that have rescued us from ourselves.

It’s the hand of God on our lives that has pulled us from the pits of darkness; depression, suicide, debauchery, loneliness, lying, stealing, adultery, homosexuality, drunkenness, addictions and so much more.

He has rescued us all from something.

Maybe some of us have testimonies that are more dramatic than others.

Maybe some of us have led seemingly-ordinary lives with no major crises or anything terribly traumatic.

Either way, though, the goodness of God has played a major part in shaping our lives and bringing us to where we are right now, at this very moment in time.

Knowing that should cause each of us to ponder on God’s goodness and thank Him, not only for what He’s done for us, but most importantly for who He is.

For without Him, we would all be living lives that would be drastically different than they are now.

Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-10-18

Micah 6:8 (NKJV) 8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?

God has shown us, hasn’t He? All that He did for you and I is written in His word. He made it very personal, because He is a personal, one-on-one Father.

What was spelled out in His word stands forever. It is truth for us, for our children and for their children, etc., for us to grab hold of and walk in daily.

His love toward us is so deep and strong. His word tells it all; All the wonderful things He has done for each one of us.

Don’t let anyone try to tell us we are of no worth or value. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, was sent to us through a virgin. And He ultimately gave His life for us at Calvary, so that we may become the sons and daughters of the Almighty God, through His righteousness.

Will we take Him at His word today and live in the promises He has for us?

What is required to obtain such Goodness?

Believe in Him, and love Him back by doing what is right. Love mercy and walk humbly with Him each day on a personal level.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-13-17

Deuteronomy 29:29 (NKJV) 29 “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.

God’s word is filled with wonderful blessings for each one of us. He reveals them to us throughout the Bible. They belong to the children of the Most High God, Lord and Savior!

King David shares about how good His Lord is to him as he places his trust in Him alone.

Psalm 21:6-7 (NKJV) 6 For You have made him most blessed forever; You have made him exceedingly glad with Your presence. 7 For the king trusts in the Lord, And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved.

The Lord God Almighty is a good God! We are blessed, and in His presence there is peace, love and joy! His mercy and grace are forever with us, as we stay close to Him and walk in His ways.

We are never alone. We are protected in His mighty hands.

Psalm 21:13 (NKJV) 13 Be exalted, O Lord, in Your own strength! We will sing and praise Your power.

We are a blessed people! Amen.
