Bible Verse of The Day – 3-1-18

Psalm 91:1-2 (NKJV) 91 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”

Many times, we go through way more stress and struggle than is necessary.

Life will always throw stuff at us that can be hard to bear, hard to go through. But we can get through it without getting so beat up all the time. It’s all in how we choose to face it that determines whether we come through it unscathed or not.

God has given each of us a secret place. A place where we go for refuge. No, this isn’t the same as the “safe places” that we hear so much about today, where people hide from their problems, instead of facing them and fixing them.

This is a secret place. It’s a place where God calls us so we can spend time with Him and commune with Him, one on one. And in this secret place, as we draw near to God, He encourages us, equips us and teaches us.

He teaches us to trust in Him, no matter what we face. So that, instead of running away from our problems and the things we come up against that are less than pleasant, we learn to face them with Him by our side, guiding us through each and every step by His spirit.

He is our refuge, our fortress, where we go to rest and replenish our spirits, so we can face our battles refreshed and renewed, ready for victory!

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-27-18

Psalm 73:28 (NKJV) 28 But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, That I may declare all Your works.

Be encouraged today. Life is wonderful! We serve an awesome and mighty God who cares for us.

Things may not be perfect for us right now, but nothing stays the same forever. Change comes, new seasons come and breakthroughs happen. God is faithful!

We are praying for you, and we know that God will turn your situation around as you obey His voice in the decisions that need to be made.

If we walk closely with Him, our life will be blessed! For His yoke is easy and His burden is light. We will see His mighty hand working in ways we could never imagine. Just follow.

Matthew 11:30 (NKJV) 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

When we are walking with Him, there will be times when we want to jump out of bed in the morning, with great anticipation. Because we know that our Father in Heaven is taking care of every detail, and He will guide our steps to do whatever our part is in it. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-4-17

Acts 2:25 (NKJV) 25 For David says concerning Him: ‘I foresaw the Lord always before my face, For He is at my right hand, that I may not be shaken.

No matter what is hitting us right now, loss of income, loss of a relationship, loss of health, loss of a family member, loss of position, etc., God is at our right hand if we lean on Him.

Our situation cannot and will not shake us if we don’t give in to it. It may try, and it may feel like it is winning at times. But if we stand and we look to God, the One who saves us, the One who lifts us up, the One who will get us through, we will not be shaken!

Get into that secret place and hold on to the ONE who will keep us standing on solid ground.

Psalm 91:1 (NKJV) 1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-14-17

Job 1:8 (NKJV) 8 Then the Lord said to Satan, “Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?”

God Himself says that Job was blameless and upright. He feared God and shunned evil, meaning Job persistently avoided, ignored, or rejected evil.

Wow, I’d say he was disciplined and determined in wanting to live right and follow after God.

Of course, the devil didn’t agree. He thought that if God took away all of Job’s blessings that he would surely curse God to His face.

Job 1:9-11 (NKJV) 9 So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!”

That is exactly what the devil did. He took away all of Job’s blessings. Job lost his oxen, donkeys, sheep and camels. He lost all his servants and his sons and daughters. But in the end, Job remained faithful to God.

Why? Because his heart was pure and His love for God was real. Nothing overcomes real love.

Sometimes it’s good to do a self check. If we were to lose everything, would we still honor God? Would we stick with Him, or would we get angry and walk away from Him and all that He has taught us? Would we blame Him for all that happened and give up on life?

Life is not a bowl of cherries, so to speak. It comes with its trials, and we all go through them. Remember to remain faithful to God, our Restorer.

Job 42:10 (NKJV) 10 And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-30-16

Psalm 46:10 (NKJV) 10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

Be still.

Those are probably two of the hardest words we will ever be told by God to carry out.

Being still when we’re going through trials requires that we trust God 100%. It takes a lot of faith to sit still when things are crumbling around us. But being still is what God says to do.

He wants us to be still so we don’t get frantic and rely solely on our intellect or our logical mind to try to fix everything. Instead, He wants us to have faith and trust Him to help us.

And He wants us to listen for His voice, through the Holy Spirit, so He can tell us what to do.

Most times, our minds are so busy trying to come up with solutions to our problems that we can’t hear Him when he does speak to us. This is why He tells us to be still.

It’s easy, when everything is going well, for us to say that we trust God. But when things get difficult, and the rubber meets the road, that’s when we get tested. That’s when “walking in faith” can be the most difficult.

But it’s then, during those trying times, that we need our faith even more.

Living and walking by faith takes time and practice to adjust to. It doesn’t just happen overnight because we want it to. But as we begin to trust God and be still in little things, we will find it easier and easier to do in bigger things.

So start today. Trust Him and be still. Know that He is God!
