Let Your Journey Begin

So many sermons and podcasts focus on our needs and wants. The content too often focuses on our purpose. And, while all that is good, what about God? Don't lose your focus in this world. All that matters is Him.

One day, we will see the majesty of God and the glory of His kingdom. We will then realize the privilege of praying to our creator and King. That privilege was granted to us by the sacrifice of His dear Son. Never take for granted the grace that has been given to you.

God has always loved His people even when they turned from Him and followed their evil ways. His love for us is profound. His grace and mercy continue to pour out in our lives. Forgive us Lord for following the culture of the world. Return us to Your grace. Thank you for your unfailing love.

We live in a microwave society expecting everything at once. The Bible tells us that with The Lord one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as one day. Lord, increase our faith to trust in Your perfect will for our lives. Teach us to wait believing that the scriptures are true.

Just as King Josiah did what was right in the eyes of The Lord, we too much take a stand against evil. You have been called to make a difference in this world! You are appointed to be His light in the darkness! Stand firm when God calls.

We are in a spiritual battle but do not be dismayed! Victory belongs to The Lord!

Sometimes God speaks to us and we have to wait for the revelation of His Words. Remember to allow yourself to be covered in His great love and expect elaborate spaces to work for His kingdom.

Moses was a powerful man of God and yet doubted God when He called Him to free His people from captivity. Do not doubt God's power and ability when He calls you to your purpose! Be strong and courageous knowing that with God behind you, there will be nothing and no one to stop you.

Too many people are trapped in the trauma of their past. Yet God loves you and lives to liberate you! Break out of your chains! You are precious to Him and His kingdom! "....The Lord comforts His people and will have compassion on His afflicted ones." Isaiah 49:13

It's not easy living as a Christian in this world today. Christianity is not for the weak. But our God asks us to set ourselves apart for Him. We are in this world but not of it! Be strong and courageous. Understand when you walk with The Lord, you will never be alone and your heavenly reward will be great.

What are the treasures that you are building up in heaven that cannot be destroyed on earth? Pray and ask The Lord to show you what matters to Him. Ask Him to teach you those things that are eternal and will never perish.

When God speaks, believe Him! He is faithful and true! Never doubt and stand on His promises! The scriptures cannot be broken!

The Lord knows your situation! He sees what you're going through! Pray boldly in humility seeking His understanding. You will receive your answer because The Lord hears your prayers.

To be born again is to leave your old life behind and start a new life in Jesus! Listen for the Spirit of God to speak to you! He will speak and He will guide you into becoming all He has created you to be!

How can we make God rich when we have nothing and He is the creator of everything in heaven and on earth? We can add to His wealth by capturing lost souls for the kingdom! Go out today and spread the good news of His unlimited and unconditional love!

Just as God chose the shepherds in the fields to announce the birth of His Son, He has also chosen YOU to help spread the good news of His great redemptive love. Let 2024 be the year that you follow the calling of God on your life! May this coming year be the year of loving one another and forgiving others just as we have been forgiven! May you have a Happy and Blessed New Year!

It's during the hard times in my life that my mind goes quickly to The Lord! The Bible tells us that He is close to those whose hearts are broken. Learn to give Him praise in dark times knowing that He will bring you closer to Him.

The Bible tells us that Jesus Himself took time alone to pray to His Father. Are you taking time to be with The Lord? Be still and know that He is God. Take time to speak to Him and to listen for His voice. It is a sure way to find peace in this fast paced world.

We learn from the Bible that an angel of The Lord gave Samson's mother specific instructions on how to live her life during her pregnancy. Healthy and holy guidelines are also essential for you. Thank you Lord, for reminding us how our lives not only affect those in our presence but also the unborn in our bodies.

Each of us, like Samson in the Biblical days, have been set apart for the glory of God. While we may not see the fruit of our work, we will reap our reward in heaven!
