Listen & Obey

Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD.” And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake; and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice. — 1 Kings 19:11-12 (NKJV) Elijah was going through stormy times, fleeing for his life, from Jezebel. And he positioned himself to hear God's voice. When an Angel of the Lord appears to Moses, in the wilderness, he drew near to observe, and the voice of the Lord came to him, (See Acts 7:30-31 NKJV). May we position ourselves to hear the voice of the LORD by drawing near to Him. Draw near in thanksgiving, prayer, praise, worship and by reading the Holy Scriptures. Give ear and hear His voice. Listen and obey. The LORD of hosts is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance. ...

Cast ALL Your Cares

By -

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]. — 1 Peter 5:6-7 (AMP) In order for the peace of God to rule in our heads and our hearts we must humble ourselves and acknowledge that we are under the mighty hand of God. He has the whole world in His hand and nothing is too difficult for Him. His purpose will prevail. (See Proverbs 19:21 NLT) Cast all your cares, worries and concerns on Him and trust Almighty God, that His plans are good and His timing is always perfect.

Keep Looking

By -
Image
I lift my eyes to you, O God, enthroned in heaven. We keep looking to the  LORD our God for his mercy, just as servants keep their eyes on their master, as a slave girl watches her mistress for the slightest signal. — Psalms 123:1-2 (NLT) Keep looking to Elohim, our Creator. He created the universe and all that it contains. He is Adonai, the Owner of our lives. Keep looking to El Olam, the eternal, Everlasting God. He is El Shaddai, the all-powerful, all-sufficient source of all our blessings. He gives gifts and equips. Nothing is too difficult for Him. Keep looking to El Roi, the “God Who Sees me.” He sees each one of us, and He is with us and will never leave us, nor forsake us. He is Almighty God and there is no other. Give to the LORD the glory due His name; Bring an offering, and come into His courts. Oh, worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth. (Psalms 96:8-9 NKJV)

Where Is Your Storehouse?

“Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.” — Matthew 6:19-21 (NLT) Evil people may have piles of money and may store away mounds of clothing, but what hope do the godless have when God cuts them off and takes away their life? (See Job 27:16 & 27:8 NLT) Continually striving to gain satisfaction or security by acquiring material possessions leads to stress and anxiety. Seek the Kingdom of God (on a daily basis), above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. (See Matthew 6:33 NLT)  “ He who leans on and trusts in and is confident in his riches will fall, but the righteous [who trust in God’s provision] will flourish like a green leaf. ” — Proverbs 11:28 (AMP)

You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. — Psalms 16:11 (NKJV) Show me the right path, O LORD; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you. (Psalms 25:4-5 NLT) Yahweh shows us His ways, let us be faithful to follow and stay on the path He sets before us. He crowns the year with His goodness, and His paths drip with abundance. (See Psalms 65:11 NKJV) In the way of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death. — Proverbs 12:28 (NKJV)

“My Help Comes from The LORD!”

I look up to the mountains— does my help come from there? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth! — Psalms 121:1-2 (NLT) “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be dismayed… With him (our enemy) is only an arm of flesh, but with us is Yahweh our God to help us and to fight our battles.” (See 2 Chronicles 32:7-8 LSB)  “For I am Yahweh your God, who strongly takes hold of your right hand, Who says to you, ‘Do not fear, I will help you.’” (Isaiah 41:13 LSB) We put our hope in the LORD. He is our help and our shield. (Psalms 33:20 NLT) Yahweh is for me among those who help me; Therefore I will look in triumph on those who hate me. (Psalms 118:7 LSB) If Yahweh had not been my help, my soul would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence. How blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in Yahweh his God, (Psalms 94:17 & 146:5 LSB). The LORD gives his people strength. The LORD blesses them with peace. (Psalms 29:11 NLT) The LORD will guard your going ou...

Run to Win!

Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. — 1 Corinthians 9:24-26 (NLT) Let us run to win, by laying aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. (See Hebrews 12:1-2 NKJV) Press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us. (See Philippians 3:14 NLT)
