Bible Verse of The Day – 12-19-23

Psalm 64:1 (NKJV) 1 Hear my voice, O God, in my meditation; Preserve my life from fear of the enemy.

David is fearful because he knows he has an enemy.

Out of desperation, he asks God to preserve his life. David is scared.

We will all be afraid at times, even as children of God.

When we are fearful, we need to get God’s help to defeat our enemy.

Wisdom is what gets us through everything we face.

God’s word says to get wisdom and understanding.

If we are facing a life-threatening situation, we need to face it through prayer. Go into battle on our knees.

Get His wisdom. Get His answers. Get His understanding.

He has all the wisdom and understanding we need to win!

Proverbs 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 7-3-23

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!

What a fitting verse for the times in which we are living!

How hard our minds work sometimes to try to decipher everything that we’re seeing.

But our minds can never fully comprehend or understand it.

Instead, we need to rely on God’s spirit. For only He knows the depths and truth of what is happening.

So, instead of busying ourselves with trying to figure it all out, let us learn to be still, resting in knowing that He has it all in His hands.

He knows what will happen before it is ever played out.

He is still on the throne.

And nothing happens that He does not allow.

Our emotions will wreck us if we allow them to.

But the Holy Spirit brings comfort, peace, joy and strength as we follow His leading and heed His voice.

Be still. Let God be God.

Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-15-23

Ecclesiastes 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For in the multitude of dreams and many words there is also vanity. But fear God.

I am one who tends to ponder on the things of life frequently.

I am in almost a constant state of meditating on the things of God and comparing them to what I see in the world.

This helps me to put things into perspective. And it helps me to see and hear God more clearly.

As I get older and I experience more of the things of God, and He gives me understanding about the depths of the depravity of the world, the easier it is for me to understand what Solomon was referring to when he spoke of so much vanity in life.

There are so many things that we think are important. We spend countless hours of our life fretting or worrying about them.

These things are vastly different for some of us, but most of them are not unique at all and are shared by millions upon millions of us.

It’s normal for us to be concerned with things that impact our lives. We are, after all, flesh and bone; subject to the emotions that come with changes and the ups-and-downs of this earthly life we live.

It is not OK, though, to allow our emotions to chip away at our faith and cause us to succumb to doubts and fears, eroding our trust in God who created and breathed life into us.

Sometimes we need to step back and look at things “from a 40,000-foot view”, to give us a better perspective and help us look from the outside, where it’s not as easy to get emotionally influenced.

This allows us to hear God better and let Him show us His way; His answers to our problems.

Our vanity and our need to have full control will begin to fall by the wayside when we hand the reins over to God and we begin following His lead instead of fighting Him every step of the way, wrestling to maintain our death grip on every aspect of our lives.

Trust Him today with your situation. Hand your cares and concerns over to Him.

It’s not always easy to do, but once we start, and we begin to see the results of trusting Him, we will never want to go back to trying to control everything in our lives ever again.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-3-23

Daniel 3:24-25 (NKJV) 24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” 25 “Look!” he answered, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.”

It feels like this is truly a season of “walking in the fire” for many of us in the body of Christ.

Trials and hard situations abound on a global scale during this season we are in. And sometimes that can make it seem like we’re constantly “up against a wall” that we can’t break through or climb over.

But it’s important for every one of us to remember this; those fires that can feel like they’re destroying us will purify us, and as we walk through them, we are not alone.

Our faithful Savior, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, is walking through the fire with us.

No, He is not spraying the fire with water to cool it down. Instead, He is equipping us and accompanying us so we can walk through that fire and come out the other side without even a hint of the smell of smoke on us.

This does not mean that the fire won’t affect us. It more than likely will, in one way or another. And it may even leave scars in some way.

But the effects will not kill us. They will make us stronger with a resolve that we didn’t have before the flames tried to swallow us up.

This is not being said to hype anyone up emotionally. It is not being said to minimize or make light of what anyone is going through right now.

But we need to understand that these trials we face have the power to make us stronger if we let them do their work.

Romans 5:3-4 (NKJV) 3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; 4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope.

No, none of us likes trials. None of us asks for tribulations. But they must come. Jesus told us this (John 16:33).

So, let us lean on God and look to Him to strengthen us as we face them, following His leading as He walks us through them.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-31-22

Romans 4:20-21 (NKJV) 20 He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.

Sometimes God requires us to do hard things.

Sometimes those things seem downright impossible. But that’s because we look at them through human eyes, analyzing them by human standards.

Serving God fully requires that we change that, learning to look at things through God’s eyes, by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Abraham had to do this. He had to look beyond his age and Sarah’s dead womb to believe that God’s promise of a son would be fulfilled.

God is the God of the impossible. He is miraculous in His nature. He does what man says can’t be done in ways that man could never even conceive in his finite mind.

This is something that we all need to remember and hold close to our hearts.

It’s something that we need to be reminded of every now and then, so we don’t lose hope and let our faith in Him falter and grow dim.

On the contrary, as we face challenges and impossible situations, our faith needs to grow stronger, not become weak and impotent.

Abraham was 100 years old when Isaac was born. Sarah had not been able to conceive or bear a single child her entire life.

Despite this seemingly impossible situation, God made good on His promise. And Isaac was born.

This is our God; the God who makes the impossible more than possible by His mighty hand.

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.”

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-2-22

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.

Job had been through quite an ordeal.

He had lost his family, his possessions and his health. And to top it off, his wife and friends were giving him very bad advice.

Job had spent a fair amount of time speaking words about God that were not favorable. He demanded an audience with God so he could question God on some things that were bothering him.

Some of those things included questioning God about the way He handles injustice, and the evil that he had seen play out over his years.

Ultimately, God had come to Job and corrected Job’s incorrect assumptions and ideas. And Job repented.

God also scolded Job’s friends for their foolish words and horrible advice for Job.

Here is a key thing we can learn from what transpired.

God told Job’s friend, Eliphaz, that he and his other friends had aroused God’s wrath against them because they had spoken incorrectly about Him. And then He told them to make a very specific sacrifice and let Job pray for them, “lest I deal with you according to your folly”.

Eliphaz and his friends obeyed God, as did Job, who then prayed for his friends and saved them from God’s wrath.

Because of Job’s repentant heart, and his obedience to God, God restored what Job had lost, and increased it.

And while some may focus on the fact that Job’s possessions were doubled, that’s not truly what’s important.

What is important is that Job repented and obeyed God. And it was this that caused God to restore Job’s losses.

Finally, it’s interesting to note that the words used in the original text actually said that God “turned the captivity of Job”, meaning that God released Job from the captivity of his situation. And then He restored his fortunes.

The key takeaway from all of this?

Stay humble. Repent. Trust in God’s sovereignty.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-22-22

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

We are in unknown territory. We don’t know what to expect. Phew… it’s challenging. It is causing us to trust God in a whole new way.

As you may know, we recently moved. And it was a big move!

Most of our old routines are gone. We are starting from scratch, you could say.

Even where I would pray in the morning has changed.

Everything we were so used to is gone. Nothing is in its usual place, if you know what we mean.

It’s not anything that any one person can help with. It hits everyone differently. But one thing we have in common is that change is change!

If it is change that God has brought, we either go with it or we stop moving forward.

God will bring change to us in different ways at different times. Some changes aren’t that hard and we enjoy them. We welcome then with open arms.

Some are changes that will cause us to feel like we cannot do it. Those changes will make us or break us. We will either go the full distances or faint on the way.

But, on this journey I have learned not to faint or be ashamed if you feel you can’t do it on your own, because those are the moments we make a very difficult choice; a choice to let go of what we know and lean on Him.

He will give us things at times that are impossible for us in our human strength to do or to bear.

But He does not want us to do it on our own. In fact, we can’t do it on our own.

What are you doing today that requires you to have God’s strength, wisdom, and joy to fulfill His plan in your life?

Don’t get down on yourself because you don’t have what it takes. Reach out for His hand. He planned it, He has the answers.

Isaiah 40:28 (NKJV) 28 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable.

Amen.
