Good morning. Sometimes when we’re doing all we know how to do it seems as if it’s not enough. We’re standing on the word of God. We’re trusting in God and obeying his word. Yet, it seems like nothing positive is happening for us. However, when we look at the world and look at those who don’t have a relationship with God, who are as evil as they want to be, it seems like they are living the good life. The Bible declares that we don’t have to be afraid of people who are evil. It also let’s us know that people who look like they got it going on, and got everything by doing wrong, their day is coming. So, we can continue to look to the hills from whence come our help, for our help comes from the Lord. Keep living holy because holiness without shall no man see the Lord.

Psalms 37:1-2 Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.

Good morning. Often times we say; I just want to live in peace. We make statements like; nothing beats a peace of mind. If this is to be true we have to be careful to live quiet lives. We bring attention to ourselves when we post our lives on social media and when we find ourselves in everyone else’s business. We become frustrated when people comment negatively on our post when it was us that gave them a way into our lives. We get mad when someone mentions our name because we’ve been busybodies, but if we would have minded our own business no one could have our names in their mouths. In this season of our lives we don’t have time for distractions. God is speaking and moving, and if we’re not alert we will miss everything.

1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.

Good morning. Victory is ours. The enemy make look like he’s winning, but we are conquerors. The fight is fixed! There’s power in the name of Jesus! Just know this battle is not ours it’s the Lord’s. So we don’t have to fret not fear because we’ve won.

Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

Good morning. God is so gracious; he didn’t let our enemies overtake us. Because God is for us, no weapon formed against us shall prosper. Have you ever wondered where would you be if God’s hand of mercy was not on you? Do you ever sit and wonder how is it your enemies keep trying to make you fall, but none of their tactics are working? We should rejoice and praise the Lord. Our testimony should be; if it had not been for the Lord on my side.

Psalms 124 (NLT) What if the Lord had not been on our side? Let all Israel repeat: What if the Lord had not been on our side when people attacked us? They would have swallowed us alive in their burning anger. The waters would have engulfed us; a torrent would have overwhelmed us. Yes, the raging waters of their fury would have overwhelmed our very lives. Praise the Lord, who did not let their teeth tear us apart! We escaped like a bird from a hunter’s trap. The trap is broken, and we are free! Our help is from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Good morning. I just want to encourage you today. No matter what you’re going through, there will be glory after this. This is a light affliction although sometimes it seems as if you can’t bear it. Hold on to God’s unchanging hand. In his time he will allow you to have a breakthrough.

Romans 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

Good morning. How will people know that we are disciples of Christ? Will they know by looking at us? Will they know by having conversations with us? Jesus said they we know that we are his disciples by loving others. Not by saying we love others, but by showing the love Jesus gave us. Love is an action word. Anyone can give lip-service.

John 13:34-35 So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”

Good morning. Did you know you have a crucial role in where you will live once you die? You’re in control of your souls destiny. God has given us free-will and no one can make make us do anything we don’t want to do. God won’t make us serve him. Man can’t make us serve him. We choose who and what we serve. We choose what we want to believe or disbelieve. Today is the day to start believing the right thing. We can say one thing with our mouths but God knows the intent of our heart.

John 3:16-17 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Good morning. When people see us at our lowest they tend to count us out. That’s why it’s so important to surround ourselves with believers that can help us believe in tough times. No matter how low you get, if you’re a child of God know that you may be down, but not out. It will be a shame for people to count you out because the greater lives on the inside of you. Just because people count you out doesn’t mean that God has counted you out.

Acts 14:19-20 Then some Jews arrived from Antioch and Iconium and won the crowds to their side. They stoned Paul and dragged him out of town, thinking he was dead. But as the believers gathered around him, he got up and went back into the town. The next day he left with Barnabas for Derbe.

Good morning. Has the Lord ever been angry with you then he wasn’t? When you noticed his anger subsided did you have a song of praise? When was the last time you told someone how you made God angry but now he comforts you? We are quick to recognize when someone makes us mad and angry, but we never recognize that we make God angry. The Bible says God is slow to anger , it didn’t say he didn’t get angry. We need to have a song of praise on our lips always because God could have killed us in his anger, but he didn’t.

Isaiah 12:1-6(NLT) In that day you will sing: “I will praise you, O Lord! You were angry with me, but not any more. Now you comfort me. See, God has come to save me. I will trust in him and not be afraid. The Lord GOD is my strength and my song; he has given me victory.” With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation! In that wonderful day you will sing: “Thank the Lord! Praise his name! Tell the nations what he has done. Let them know how mighty he is! Sing to the Lord, for he has done wonderful things. Make known his praise around the world. Let all the people of Jerusalem shout his praise with joy! For great is the Holy One of Israel who lives among you.”

Good morning. What good is having spiritual gifts if we don’t have love? What good is being able to speak in tongues, preach, and prophesy; then turn around and be nasty, degrading, and hurtful to people? Without love we are nothing. Without love our spiritual gifts are useless. If we can’t find it within ourselves to love like Christ, we need to repent and not operate in our spiritual gifts until we have love for ourselves and others.

1 Corinthians 13:1-2 (NLT) If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.
