Is Your Marriage Bitter or Better? As you reflect and celebrate your marriage this Valentine’s Day, are you bitter or better because of the spouse you chose? Let us evaluate your answer according to the Word of God. God’s plan for marriage is very clear in His Word. Genesis 2:21-24 – 21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Then the rib…..
Exuberant Faith As we begin a new year, I pray our focus is on the most important aspects of life. What comes to your mind first? If your response is God and family, then your priorities are aligned with God. I hope to dig a little deeper into the Word of God and allow the Holy Spirit to reveal Jesus to me further in this coming year. My husband received the words “Exuberant Faith” recently and that is my plan…..
CHRISTMAS LOVE What is Christmas? What is Love? We find these answers in the book of Luke. You may have heard it said that if you read one chapter a day in December, by Christmas you will know Jesus. I go one step further and say that you will have revelation of what Christmas love represents. We celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ at Christmas. We celebrate our Heavenly Father’s gift to us at Christmas. Jesus IS Christmas…..
Giving Thanks During our pre-service prayer this past Sunday, excerpts from Psalm 107 were read to those attending. There was such a sweet presence of the Holy Spirit in our midst, with instrumental worship music playing in the background. Psalms 107:1-2 – 1Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. 2 Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy Yes! God’s mercy endures forever! Let the redeemed of the Lord say so! We have…..
The Faith of a Child This morning I was driving our precious granddaughter to kindergarten. With excitement in her voice she said, “Hey Grandma, play ‘Let Me Tell You About My Jesus’.” I knew she wanted me to turn on the radio, but she specifically wanted to hear this song. This little one has already invited Jesus into her heart and loves to sing about Jesus. She is very inquisitive about Heaven and God, and loves to hear the stories…..
PEACE John 14:27 – Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Have you ever gotten so overwhelmed that you throw up your hands and say, “I can’t handle anymore”? Maybe you just need to stop everything you are doing and find a quiet place to get alone with the Lord. For me, I sit by…..
What Are You Asking For? While reading a daily devotional I was challenged to ask myself this question. What am I asking God for? Besides my requests in daily prayers, am I asking Him for to further His kingdom through me? Sensing it is a time in my life to reevaluate, I do not want my mind to be clouded with the chaos of this world. I want to know the heart of God and His desire for my life……
What Is Your Battle? Galatians 6:2 – “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” We have heard it said “When it rains it pours”. Although our trials/tests/tribulation seem to come in waves, as Christians we know from where our help comes from. We are to lean into God and wait for His help, His comfort, His peace. In this season we are living in, there are multitudes being affected with troubles. Whether physically, emotionally, mentally, financially, or natural…..
Take Authority This morning as I sit in quietness before the Lord, my mind roams over all the prayer requests and needs of His people. As I realize there are many in the Kingdom of God that are hurting, I automatically understand it is due to the days we are living in. Satan is our enemy and knowing his time is short, is strategizing to prevent us from spending eternity with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He believes that…..
WHAT IF What if the world as we know it is coming to an end? What if this is your last day on this earth? What if the Bible is true? What if there really is a rapture? This generation has never seen such tumultuous times that we are presently living in. The one question laying heavily on my mind recently is: What if the Rapture is a reward and we do not have to partake in the…..
