Good morning. If God worked things out for us before he can do it again. Whatever situations we find ourselves in know that God see’s us and he’s waiting on us to open our mouths and call out to him. He already knows what we need but are we willing to ask for it? Are we willing to ask for help, favor and mercy? Communication goes a long way with God. It’s good to have others pray with you or pray for you but it’s better when you talk to God for yourself.

Habakkuk 3:2
I have heard all about you, LORD. I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger,
remember your mercy.

Good morning. This is not the season to be willfully sinning. God is not playing around with us nor is he winking at us anymore. He’s literally taking folks out of the earth. Know that our sinful behavior is not acceptable in his sight. We’ve had warning after warning, so when God’s judgment comes we can truly say we brought this on ourselves.

Isaiah 66:3-4
But those who choose their own ways— delighting in their detestable sins— will not have their offerings accepted.
When such people sacrifice a bull, it is no more acceptable than a human sacrifice.
When they sacrifice a lamb,
it’s as though they had sacrificed a dog! When they bring an offering of grain, they might as well offer the blood of a pig. When they burn frankincense, it’s as if they had blessed an idol. I will send them great trouble— all the things they feared. For when I called, they did not answer. When I spoke, they did not listen. They deliberately sinned before my very eyes and chose to do what they know I despise.”

Good morning. It’s good to have money and not have to ask anyone for help. However, we are not to love money and we are not to think that we can do everything on our own. The Lord is our helper and he’s designed it so that we have to lean and depend on him. We are not to be fooled by our bank accounts, thinking because we have enough money we don’t need the Lord. Don’t trust in riches, trust in the Lord.

Hebrews 13:5-6
Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you.
I will never abandon you.” So we can say with confidence, “The LORD is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?”

Good morning. God’s promises are true. God promised us a Savior and he gave us Jesus. We can shout and rejoice knowing that Jesus has redeemed us before the father. Jesus has bore our punishment. Jesus makes intercession for us. Jesus makes sure we don’t get what we deserve. So before we start feeling sorry for ourselves and murmuring and complaining; remember Jesus saves.

Luke 1:68-70
“Praise the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has visited and redeemed his people.
He has sent us a mighty Savior from the royal line of his servant David, just as he promised through his holy prophets long ago.

Good morning. There are some believers who are weak in the faith. We are not to condemn them or treat them less than. On the contrary, we are to love on them, encourage them, take them under our wings and help cultivate their faith. Remember, we were not always as strong in our faith as we are now. It took time for our faith to grow. Stronger Christians labored with us and taught us by example. Let’s make sure us stronger Christians are not the ones being stumbling blocks for the weaker Christians.

Romans 14:13
So let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.

Good morning. Because of Jesus’ death on the cross our sins are forgiven and we are no longer separated from Christ. We now have an advocate that can plead our case and drop all the charges against us. Once guilty of sin, now we are pronounced not guilty because of the shedding of the blood of Christ. This new verdict gives us freedom in Christ. Let’s not neglect the Lord. Let’s not take his sacrifice for granted. Let us always remember he took our place. Let’s not act like Jesus owes us anything, when he paid everything just to save us. With our new found freedom let’s tell a dying world about Jesus; the one who forgives sins; Jesus, the one who’s the Savior of the world. Jesus, the one who redeems our lives out of the pit. It’s time we show the world what a Mighty God we serve.

Colossians 1:20-22
and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross. This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions. Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.

Good morning. Why do we think children should be left out of ministry? We include them in movies when some movies are not suitable for them to watch. We include them in sports when some language is not appropriate for them to hear. Yet, when it comes to ministry, we want to exclude them, put them in a room with hotdogs and chips and call it children’s church. We should be teaching our children how to pray, how to worship, and how to search the scriptures. Jesus loves the children and he welcomes them to come to him. We have to stop pushing our children away from the Lord and start ushering them into his presence.

Matthew 19:13-15
One day some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could lay his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him.
But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.” And he placed his hands on their heads and blessed them before he left.

Good morning. If we ignore the message of salvation and live the way we want to live, let us not think we can escape the wrath of God. It doesn’t matter who the message comes from, we need to take heed. Jesus is giving us every opportunity to accept him. We cannot waste our time or our lives thinking we can do whatever we want to do then accept the Lord right before we die. We don’t know how God has chosen for us to depart this world. So while the blood is running warm in our veins, we need to grab hold of this salvation that Jesus is offering and we need to live our lives according to the word.

Hebrews 2:3-4
So what makes us think we can escape if we ignore this great salvation that was first announced by the Lord Jesus himself and then delivered to us by those who heard him speak? And God confirmed the message by giving signs and wonders and various miracles and gifts of the Holy Spirit whenever he chose.

Good morning. Have you ever wondered why God does things a certain way? Surely, if we had a choice in the matter we would do it a bit different. What we fail to realize is, God ways are not our ways and his thoughts are not our thoughts. The sooner we accept that God is going to do things his way, the better off we will be.

Ecclesiastes 7:13
Accept the way God does things, for who can straighten what he has made crooked?

Good morning. God is responsive to those who call on his name in truth. Since God knows our every thought, he knows when counterfeits are mocking and calling his name. God is a very present help in the time of trouble, therefore, we must call on him knowing that he’s near. We must call on him knowing that he will answer. We must call on him knowing that he knows our voice, and that he knows we’re calling him out of a pure and sincere heart.

Psalms 145:18
The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
