Keep me safe, O God, I’ve run for dear life to you. I say to GOD, “Be my Lord!” Without you, nothing makes sense. My choice is you, GOD, first and only. And now I find I’m your choice! You set me up with a house and yard. And then you made me your heir! The wise counsel GOD gives when I’m awake is confirmed by my sleeping heart. Day and night I’ll stick with GOD; I’ve got a good thing going and I’m not letting go. I’m happy from the inside out, and from the outside in, I’m fi

… you asked GOD for help and he gave you the victory. GOD is always on the alert, constantly on the lookout for people who are totally committed to him. (‭‭2 Chron 16:8) I’m sure we’ve all heard stories of people who have given their last penny in a church offering and GOD (somehow) gave them back many pounds. Well … I remember that it happened to me too! We’d just moved to a town over 250 miles away from our families so that I could study under the awesome Teacher John McKay

… so I wouldn’t get a big head, I was given the gift of a handicap to keep me in constant touch with my limitations. Satan’s angel did his best to get me down; what he in fact did was push me to my knees. No danger then of walking around high and mighty! At first I didn’t think of it as a gift, and begged God to remove it. Three times I did that, and then he told me, “My grace is enough; it’s all you need. My strength comes into its own in your weakness.” Once I heard that, I

Most of all, I’m writing to encourage you to pray with gratitude to God. Pray for all men with all forms of prayers and requests as you intercede with intense passion. And pray for every political leader and representative, so that we would be able to live tranquil, undisturbed lives, as we worship the awe-inspiring God with pure hearts. It is pleasing to our Savior-God to pray for them. He longs for everyone to embrace his life and return to the full knowledge of the truth.

When I saw him, I fell down at his feet as good as dead, but he laid his right hand on me and I heard his reassuring voice saying: Don’t yield to fear. I am the Beginning and I am the End, the Living One! I was dead, but now look—I am alive forever and ever. And I hold the keys that unlock death and the unseen world. (‭‭Rev‬ ‭1:17) Jesus is clearly speaking to all of his siblings throughout eternity that we’ve not to yield to fear. He tells us this because he now holds all th

Jesus answered, … “Go back to your home and to your family and tell them what the Lord has done for you. Tell them how he had mercy on you.” (Mark‬ ‭5:19‬) My wife had been walking with Christ for only a few hours when she suddenly said, “you have to take me to ‘such and such‘ Hospital, my colleague is in there and I must go and tell them now about Jesus!” I was really nervous – but when your wife commands..! We arrived about visiting time and there were lots of this guy’s fr

He alone is my safe place; his wrap-around presence always protects me. For he is my champion defender; there’s no risk of failure with God. So why would I let worry paralyze me, even when troubles multiply around me? (‭‭Psa‬ ‭62:2‬) I learned a long time ago that there is GOD’s perfect will and His passive will. His perfect will is that all of mankind should embrace just what He did for us through Jesus the Christ, His Son, by saving us all from ourselves. His passive will i

Having determined our destiny ahead of time, he called us to himself and transferred his perfect righteousness to everyone he called. And those who possess his perfect righteousness he co-glorified with his Son! (‭‭Rom 8:30) Think about it – you have been co-glorified with Jesus. And what was Jesus glorified for? The reason the Son of God was revealed was to undo and destroy the works of the devil. (‭‭1 John‬ ‭3:8‬) ❤️ #answeredprayers #grace #worship #loveinaction #kindness

God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through? (Num 23:19‬) I gave my heart to Jesus over 35 years ago and in all that time I can unequivocally state that He has always been and so IS Faithful! Please forgive me for boasting in my Lord, but according to documented medical records I have come through cancer, heart attacks and a stroke, as well as a mul

Joyfully you teach them the proper path, even when they go astray. Keep showing the humble your path, and lead them into the best decision. Bring revelation-light that trains them in the truth. (‭‭Psa 25:8) How many of our prayers begin with a question, or with a request? The Bible teaches us that GOD knows what is best for us and that it’s our arrogance – in thinking that we know best, that keeps the real ‘best’ from us. Child of the Living GOD, it’s not the self-sufficient

(Jesus speaking) “Here, then, is the deeper meaning to my parable: The word of God is the seed that is sown into hearts. The hard pathway represents the hard hearts of men who hear the word of God but the slanderer quickly snatches away what was sown in their hearts to keep them from believing and experiencing salvation. The seed falling on the gravel represents those who initially respond to the word with joy, but soon afterward, when a season of harassment of the enemy and

But God still loved us with such great love. He is so rich in compassion and mercy. Even when we were dead and doomed in our many sins, he united us into the very life of Christ and saved us by his wonderful grace! He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ! (‭‭Eph 2:4) Think about it – He has never taken away the ‘Gift’ of Life he offered u

… Bring Yahweh praise and you will find him. Your hearts will overflow with life forever! (‭‭Psa ‭22:26‬) (For me) It’s easy to thank GOD when he ‘feels’ to be close at hand – the sun is shining, my bank account is full, my health is good, I feel valued, etc., etc. But when he seems distant, and the clouds cover the sun, my bank account seems empty and my wife starts to tell me some home truths … ! The thing is, the Truth of who GOD is to me, should always motivate my actions

I remember boasting, “I’ve got it made! Nothing can stop me now!… But then suddenly, you hid your face from me. I was panic-stricken and became depressed. O Lord, my healing God, I cried out for a miracle and you healed me! You brought me back from the brink of death, from the depths below. Now here I am, alive and well, fully restored! I’ve learned that his anger lasts for a moment, but his loving favor lasts a lifetime! We may weep through the night, but at daybreak it will

So search your hearts every day, my brothers and sisters, and make sure that none of you has evil or unbelief hiding within you. For it will lead you astray, and make you unresponsive to the living God. (‭‭Heb 3:12‬) Unbelief hides within us all, and many times we ignore the Holy Spirit within us and our prayers are watered down as we struggle to believe to a more bland and ‘safe’ prayer such as: “… if it be your will.” Lord, I want to believe – help my unbelief. ❤️ #health #

When people work, they earn wages. It can’t be considered a free gift, because they earned it. But no one earns God’s righteousness. It can only be transferred when we no longer rely on our own works, but believe in the one who powerfully declares the ungodly to be righteous in his eyes. It is faith that transfers God’s righteousness into your account! … What happy fulfilment is ahead for those whose rebellion has been forgiven and whose sins are covered by blood. What happy
