Help for the Brokenhearted
“He heals the brokenhearted and bindeth up their wounds.” Psalms 147:3 God has made full provision for healing the pain of the past so you can trust again. Have you ever trusted someone to love you that did not know how to love or how to receive your love? In both cases you will experience rejection. This type of rejection is very painful, especially when it comes from someone whom you really trusted. The pain from being hurt by someone you trust is much greater than being hurt by a casual friend. It takes years to build trust, but it […]
God Prepares You for Your Blessing
“For You make him to be blessed and a blessing for life …” Psalm 21:6 David said in Psalms 21:6, that God in fact makes you to be blessed. He makes you or simply puts, He prepares you ‘to get’ His blessings so that you can be a blessing to others. Think about it, today He is preparing you for His true blessings! You resemble a storehouse that He should prepare to pour His true blessings into. If you are a little 4 room residence He may require you to expand to get a blessing. You cannot have the “us […]
Living Life to the Fullest
“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. – Matthew 22:37 I have a class assignment due in the morning. I found it extremely interesting and it got me mulling over some things at a depth I haven’t had “time” to do for a while. I think I’m moving too fast these days… I miss the times when I can just slow down and breathe. I miss abiding in Him, in His presence… resting with Him, being gentle and not SO intense about everything. The assignment was to get […]
This is the way, so now walk in it
Whether you turn to the right or the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, “This is the way; walk ye in it” Isaiah 30:21 When we have decisions to make and doubts are flooding our soul and others suggest courses of action that are conflicting, when caution dictates one approach but faith the other, it is the time to stop and be still. The scripture says, “Be still and know, I am God” (Psalm 46:10). This gives us the permission that it is “ok” to quiet the intruding opinion of others around us and then calm […]
A New Beginning
“I the Lord have called thee in righteousness, I will hold thine hand, and I will keep thee. …Behold the former things are come to pass and the new things do I declare before they spring forth I tell you of them.” Isaiah 42:6-9 I knew the Lord had told me that He would allow me to experience days of Heaven upon the earth, that I would be able to say that I have seen a glimpse of Heaven and it is glorious. As the former things all passed away I soon realized that I was being prepared for […]
In His Presence, There is Fullness of Joy
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; prayer, that goeth not out for feigned lips.” (Psalms 16:11) “Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my footsteps slip not.” (Psalms 17:5) As we travel down the path of life, the Lord will make the path very clear. The right path of life leads you to do what is right. You know you are on the right path by the peace that comes as you choose to do what is right. Sin draws you away from God’s presence and the right path. When […]
It is Blessed To Be A Blessing
For You make him to be blessed and a blessing forever; You make him exceedingly glad with the joy of Your presence. Psalm 21:6 Amp. It is God that makes us to be blessed! David said in Psalm 21:6, that God actually makes you to be blessed. He makes or rather He prepares you to receive His blessings. Think about it, right now He is preparing you for His blessings. You are like a storehouse that He must prepare to pour his blessings into. If you are a little four room house, He may require you expand to receive a blessing. You can’t have the […]
Living Life to the Fullness
“You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” Psalm 16:11 (New King James Version) We can have joy and live life to the fullest when we live by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Every Word from God is God breathed and is life. God is the only one who has the plan for your life and knows how it will unfold before you. He has the plan and the path that you need to take to get there. So, every morning, spend […]
