TRUST IN THE LORD

Monday, November 2, 2009


Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.


Check out what this weeks scripture says… “Trust in the Lord with … “ALL” your heart and lean not on your own understanding…” In the midst of whatever you are going through are you trusting God with all your heart? Are you leaning not to your own understanding but his? We are so wrapped up in the economy of the world that we often forget to thank God for the many blessings he has bestowed upon us. Much like the Israelites back in the day, we forget to acknowledge that all the blessings we have and all the opportunities we receive come because of his grace, love and mercy.

Things are rough for a lot of folk right now. People are desperate. What do you do when you loose your job, your money is funny, children acting a fool, and the doctors are not telling you anything good. Try this! Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Then Faith It Out until You Figure It Out! Then Shout it Out!

In Jesus’ Name! Have a blessed week! AMEN

Shabach Shalom!

My Grace is Sufficient

2 Corinthians 12:7-9 7To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surprisingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. 8Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. We can't deny that there is suffering and tragedy in the world, suffering that is so often incomprehensible to us. We can look on a global scale, and see children being slaughtered for no good reason--or for any reason at all. In Iraq thousands of innocent people are being terrorized and tormented in the name of Islam. We can look on a national scale, and see friends and relatives of the victims of hurricane Katrina still trying to put their lives back together. And, most importantly, we can look on a PERSONAL level, and see our own...

Isaiah 9:6 “ For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. ” “Giving frees us from the familiar territory of our own needs by opening our mind to the unexplained worlds occupied by the needs of others.” Barbara Bush Let us pray… FATHER WE THANK YOU FOR THAT PORTION OF THE SCRIPTURES WHICH REVEALS TO US YOUR WILL AND YOUR WAY FOR OUR GOOD AND HAPPY LIFE ON EARTH.

How Is Your Spirit?

Proverbs 4:23 – Above all else, guard your heart (the center of your soul), for out of it comes the issues of life. How is your spirit this morning? That is the kind of question Saints use to ask each other on a regular basis during Sunday School or Bible Study. The purpose of this question was posed not to pry into each other’s life. Rather, those early Saints knew that the world, the flesh and of Satan’s working overtime in wearing our spirits down. They knew, as we know, about days, weeks, months and even years of spiritual emptiness and dryness, when the words of Scripture are empty, prayer is meaningless, receiving communion is ritualistic, our sensitivity to the needs of others is dull, and God seems very disinterested in our lives. Outwardly, we continue to go through the motions, doing our duties, keeping up appearances, telling everyone that everything is “Fine, just fine,” but inwardly there is a deep thirst, a powerful craving for something more. We would like to t...
