Though a mighty army surrounds me....

Psalms 27:3

3 Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident.

Doesn't it feel that way sometimes? Like there's an army of problems all around us? Like everywhere we turn something else is wrong. Like life is tripping us up all the time.

But today, let's remain confident that GOD will fight against any army that tries to knock us down. Let's not be afraid of what we see around us, instead let's look up at the one that sits on the throne of majesty.

Have a Happy Tuesday.

Faith as little as a mustard seed

Matthew 17:20

And He said to them, "Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it shall move; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

Sometimes we don't see miracles happen in our lives, not because God can't do them. But because our faith is lacking. We don't believe unless we see. We don't BELIEVE GOD will do, what he said he will do.

Today, let's begin to THANK GOD for all those miracles that are going to take place in our lives.

Now that's FAITH!

TRUST in GOD, You will be BLESSED

Jeremiah 17:7

“Blessed is the man who TRUSTS in the Lord, And whose HOPE is the Lord.

Us as humans will always FAIL one another & ourselves. But the WORD says BLESSED is the man who TRUST & HOPES in the Lord. Why Blessed? Because GOD will never FAIL US. He will always stick to HIS WORD and every single promise he has made to us will come to pass.

STOP depending on others and on your own strength for life to get better. TRUST & HOPE in GOD & YOU WILL BE BLESSED.

Iron Sharpens Iron

Proverbs 27:17

As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.

Today, let's be THANKFUL for those people in our lives who make us better. Who are constantly challenging us to be the best we can be. Who will tell us the truth even when it hurts. Who will pull us back when we begin to stray. And who will stand by our side even when we push them away.That is true friendship. Iron sharpens Iron.

God bless.

I had no idea I had so many valuable possessions

Psalm 103:2 Praise the LORD, my soul, and forget not all his benefits--

ILL.- Waylon Prendergast, 37, of Tampa, Florida, committed a spur-of-the-moment robbery while on his way home from a late-night drinking session. A very drunk Mr. Prendergast forced his way into the house through an open upstairs window, filling a suitcase with cash and valuables before setting the living room on fire to cover his tracks. He then escaped through the back door and made his way home, chuckling all the way.

Only as he turned the corner into his own street, however, and discovered three fire engines outside his house, did he realize that in his drunkenness he had, in fact, burgled and ignited his own property. His comment was: "I had no idea I had so many valuable possessions.

Today, regardless how "bad" life may seem, let's remind ourselves how truly blessed we are! Having the gift of salvation is the biggest blessing of them all.

Have a Joyful Day.

I will give you Rest

Matthew 11:28

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

In this life we will all suffer from burdens, whether its financial, emotional, physical, and/or spiritual. Regardless of what burden we have, a burden is a burden. Its heavy, its draining and its overbearing. If we carry it long enough, eventually we will burn out.

But as believers, we were never called to carry this burden alone. The Word of God says "Come to me,... & I will give you rest. Today, let's stop trying to handle everything on our own. Let's give our burdens over to Jesus and rest in His Presence.

Why, my soul, are you downcast?

Psalms 43:5

Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.

There will be moments in our lives, when you feel totally down and out. Where no one is around you that can give you a word of encouragement. Where you can't even begin to utter what your issues are cause they are that deep. Where if you don't begin to praise Jesus on your own, you won't make it through to the morning.

But today remember, the HOLY SPIRIT lives within YOU. Don't feel sorry that no one is there to console you. Get up and begin to minister to yourself. REMIND yourself who you are in Christ. REMIND yourself that NO WEAPON formed against you shall prosper. REMIND yourself that our HOPE comes from above. And REMIND yourself that no matter what happens YOU WILL PRAISE JESUS.
