Thought For The Day

  Are we thankful for all the good God has given to us through Jesus? Ephesians 5:20,  Giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1Thessalonians 5:18 in everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Are we thankful for the breath that we breathe? Did you know every breath that we take says God's name according to our brothers in Israel? Yahweh. I found that very interesting. Are we thankful for all our family that God has placed us in? Beloved, did you realize that thanks to God comes before praise? Psalm 100:4-5 (Think on this) We enter His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name. (We use to sing this in church) For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting. His truth endures to all generations. Are we thankful for those people, saved and unsaved that God has placed in our life? Some for a reason and some for a season? We grow because of t...

Beloved, God's peace only depends on your relationship with Jesus. John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you: not as the world gives do I give to you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 16:33 "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you will have peace.  In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." Our peace will depend on what we fill our mind with. Is it God's word? Fellowship with the Holy Spirit? Fill your mind up with God's word and praise to Him. Get quiet and let the Holy Spirit speak to you. Open your heart up to the Spirit of God, and follow His direction in the way you are to go.   When you do God's will, you will have great peace.  Because you are partnering with the Holy Spirit to do the will of God in your life, His will is in His word! It tells us that Jesus is our peace and that peace lives inside of us. When correction and discipline is needed,...

  The gospel carries life and immortality. 2Timothy 1:8-9 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me. His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who saved us and called  us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to is own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began. Beloved, the good news of Jesus Christ carries far more than we realize. Paul said, "preach the gospel in season and out of season." What should this tell us? That no matter the season preach the good news in Gods word. It alone carries the power of God to change a life. Some people ask what is the gospel?  It is the good news that Jesus Christ took all our sins and paid the full price for them on the cross. It provided forgiveness, for everlasting life and healing of our soul. No more guilt and shame for the past. All things become new. Know the great Kingdom of God that you ente...

  As the leaves fall from the trees, they will provide nourishment for the new growth in the Spring. Nothing is wasted in God's kingdom. Matthew 14:19-21 Then He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave to the multitudes. So all ate and were filled, and they took up twelves baskets full of the fragments that remained. Jesus made it clear after feeding the multitudes,  waste nothing, collect what is left. Beloved, don't waste what you have learned in this past season of your life.  For you will add to the good things learned from God's word. And you will grow in the Lord. Each season has great lessons to learn. There are times of great happiness, and times of great sorrow and we adjust to each season with the help of the Holy Spirit. Each season has great lessons for us to learn. Ecclesiastes 3:2 To everything the...
