Trust In God

I went to sleep last night with such peace and I awoke with even more peace from God then when I went to sleep. The Lord saw fit to bless me in the early hours of the morning with an awesome dream that was truly wonderful to me. It was beautiful and I thank God for this, His sweet peace. Our God is awesome.

God knows all our needs. But how many truly trust God to supply those very needs that He knows we have ? His Word tells us that we should place our entire trust and will in Him and in Him alone. How many people truly trust God in this capacity ? Have you ever stopped to think about how many people truly trust God in the capacity they should ?

Proverbs 3:5-7
5) Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6) In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7) Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

Job showed true trust in God. For he knew that God knows all. He trusted, fully trusted, in God.

Job 13:15-16
15) Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.
16) He also shall be my salvation: for an hypocrite shall not come before him.

Psalms 37:3-6
3) Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4) Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5) Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
6) And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.

David trusted in the Lord in this way. He knew that by trusting in God, God would deliver him and bless him. David slew Goliath because he trusted God. He trusted, fully trusted, in God.

Psalms 143:7-12
7) Hear me speedily, O Lord: my spirit faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down into the pit.
8) Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto thee.
9) Deliver me, O Lord, from mine enemies: I flee unto thee to hide me.
10) Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
11) Quicken me, O Lord, for thy name's sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my soul out of trouble.
12) And of thy mercy cut off mine enemies, and destroy all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant.


Jesus, Himself, gave His life for us. The trust we should have in and of Him should be our entire trust. For He gave His life for our sin sacrifice. He paid the ultimate price with His Blood at Calvary, yet so many people , to this very day, do not trust in God as they should and He was willing to, and did, give His life for our sin sacrifice. Now why do people not trust fully in God? After all He gave His life for each one of us.No greater Love is there in this world than the Love of God. Why don't people trust God completely as they should ? The Lord will bless those who trust completely in Him. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart.


The verses, from the Bible, I posted are just some of the verses that teach us of how we are to trust in God/Jesus. The pages of the Bible are filled with people who truly trusted in God and also those who did not trust in God. The Bible teaches us of the trust that we should have in our God, complete trust.

People place their trust in other people daily, their complete trust. Yet they are unwilling to place that same complete trust in God. Something is wrong when a person can place complete trust in a person, knowing that the possibility is there , that the other person could break that trust. Yet they do not place their trust in God when God/Jesus made the ultimate sacrifice for us.

I choose to trust God completely. I encourage each one to place their complete trust in God and in God alone. God will never lead one wrong but man , the devil and the devils way of sin will lead one to Hell. The Lord is always working in His children to refine them into whom He wants us to be. Tried in the fire and coming forth as silver refined. Trust in God to refine you into that silver, that whom He wants you to be.

Changes

Changes are something we all experience in life. Whether we welcome these changes or not, they will arrive in our life. The thing is, to try to be prepared for when these changes do come. Of course we never truly know when a change is going to happen but we can be prepared for it, if we have God in our life. One won't be completely blindsided by changes if they are prepared.

I have been faced with many changes in my life. I have not always been totally prepared for them but I have at least been expecting most of them when they happened as God saw fit to make me aware of the circumstances that foretold of the change that was to come. If we are watchful, as God tells us to be ever watchful, then we will see the signs that point to the change that is coming. This does not just apply to when the Lord returns to this earth that He tells us to be watchful for He tells us to be ever watchful.


2 Timothy 4:5 5)But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.

1 Peter 5:8 8) Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

Change is not always good and it does not always come from God. We, as mankind, are given a choice in things. Sometimes we choose to change in a way that God does not want us to change in. Sometimes others change in a way that God does not ordain or that God does not agree with. No matter what the change is or when it happens, if one is watching they will be aware of the signs that show a change is coming. If these signs are heeded, one can be prepared for the change that is coming.

Matthew 24 tells us of how we are to know of when the time for the Lord's return is drawing nigh, by watching the signs that the Lord told us would be before His return. In the same way that the Lord told of the signs that would precede His return, He tells us of the changes that are coming in our life if we but heed the signs He is showing us. It is that, too often, we are blinded to the signs that are being given, merely because we do not want to see the truth. Some think that if they do not acknowledge that something is wrong, that something is happening, that the change will never arrive. Sort of if I don't see the signs then it isn't going to happen or ignore it because I do not want to see it and it will go away. Sadly when the change finally arrives it will devastate the one who has chosen to ignore the signs. But one can be prepared if they heed the signs that God has given them.

Happy Thanksgiving !!!

I just wanted to take this opportunity to wish everyone a " Safe and Happy Thanksgiving ". What are you most thankful for ? What and how do you place the most value upon something or someone and why ? How do you choose what or whom is most important to you ?


I have many things to thank God for. First I am thankful for God, the Lord Jesus Christ for giving His life on Calvary for the redemption of His children's sin. He knows who will accept Him and who will turn Him away. I thank God for Jesus dying on the Cross of Calvary. What an awesome Love God has for us. No greater Love is there than God's Love. No Love can compare to God's Love.

I thank God for my family, not only in genetic family but also my family through and in the Blood of Jesus Christ. God has truly blest me with one awesome Family. I have so many siblings in the Lord and when we get together and pray, have faith and believe, some awesome things happen. God is true, He is good and He is Real.

I thank God for my children. They are a true blessing to me from God above. He has blest me with two children who have given their own heart, soul and life over to Him. They know what is the most important thing in this world and that is God. Being in service to God and dedicating one's life to God is what has to be done in order to receive the Promise, of and from God. Only by accepting Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord of your life, by living your life as God's laws dictate, can one have eternal life in Glory with God. There is no other way to obtain eternal life in Glory with God except through Jesus Christ and living a life acceptable and befitting ,of and, to Christ Jesus.

I thank God that we have the opportunity to do this through Jesus. Without God/Jesus we would all be in death and in hell, come the end time. For us gentiles there would have been no hope except for Jesus. Just as there is no hope for those who refuse to accept Jesus and for those who turn from God/Jesus unless they repent and turn again unto God/Jesus.

I am so thankful for my Lord and Saviour. I have so many wonderful blessings to thank God for. He knows of them all. The most recent blessing is that He gave me the strength to overcome the attacks that the devil and his workers were trying to attack me with. God gave me the strength to say , " No More." I stand upon the solid rock foundation of the Lord Jesus Christ and I shall not be moved for I am planted like a tree beside the water which roots have taken and hold fast to the Life giving waters that can only come from the Lord Jesus Christ. If one has Christ in their life they too can claim the power of God the Father as their shield and buckler. For He is my strong Tower, my Fortress, a very present Help in times of trouble. If I lose all that I have, on earth, I know that my God will lift me up and restore me and that in and through Him I shall overcome the enemy and all that the enemy seeks to do. For the enemy's arrows shall fall short of the mark just as God says they shall . Just as God told King David to trust in Him and in Him only so too shall I trust in My God.

I Love the Lord with all my heart. I hope and pray and wish upon each person who reads this message that soon you too shall come to know the joy and peace of the Lord. For there is nothing that can compare to God's peace and Love within one's heart and soul. With God all things are possible, with and through God the enemy will be defeated and we, God's children, shall come forth, through the fire, as silver refined.

Have a blessed and safe Thanksgiving.

Compassion

The Lord tells us to have compassion one for another.
1 Peter 3:8-9
8)Finally, be ye all of one mind,having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
9) Not rendering evil for evil,or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

Think on the story of the Good Samaritan in the Bible.Luke 10:30-37 Here was a man lying in a ditch, hurt badly. Some passed him by but one had compassion towards him and that was the Good Samaritan who had compassion upon this person who was injured so. It shows that not everyone has compassion. They have hardened their hearts towards others so they lack compassion for their fellow man.

Some people do lack compassion. But it is our duty as a Christian, a child of God, to have compassion on and for others. Just because someone else does not return our compassion for them does not mean we are exempt from extending our compassion towards them.

I mean look at the great sacrifice that Jesus made for us at Calvary. He did this because He loves us and He has compassion upon us. Now think about how many people daily, reject Jesus/God. Even though these people turn their back on Him , He is still willing to be there for when they come unto Him. He is always here for each one of us but we are not always here for Him.

Sometimes we have to be here for others even though they do not want to be here for us. Sure we get hurt by others, so did Jesus. We get persecuted by others, so did Jesus. We have our feelings hurt by others, so did Jesus. We are rejected by others, so was and is Jesus. But it is worth it, just to know that maybe, just maybe, by our being there for someone else, they might have a seed sown in their heart that will eventually lead them to Jesus. Even those who profess to be Christians, who do not walk as true Christians, may see the difference in us and themselves and want to change to be more like us if we truly live and work for the Lord.

We never know that the seeds we sow, whether they will fall upon fertile, barren or rocky soil. The main thing is that we are sowing the seeds as God would have us to do. Sometimes it is a thankless job being a friend but at least you know that you tried, even when those said friends do not return the favor. They lack compassion. The best thing to do is pray for them.

Peace

It is a good feeling, peace is. Do you have that wonderful feeling of peace of knowing God and knowing that all is well with your soul ? Do you have the peace of God within your heart ? If you do not, then you are missing out on the most awesome feeling there is. The Love, peace and joy of the Lord dwelling within one's heart and soul is the most wonderful feeling one will ever know in their entire life. There is nothing that can compare to the peace and Love of God dwelling within your heart and soul.

It is something that is far above anything this old world has to offer. This world can not give you what God can. Nothing that this world or the devil has to offer can compare to the wonderful feeling of peace and love from God. It is something to rejoice about and to share with others when you have obtained that feeling of peace from God within you. Everyone should want this peace from, and of, God dwelling within them.

It is something God gives you if you truly want it and seek after it. It is awesome and it is only given by and through Jesus/God. It can not be bought with money or with worldly goods. It was bought and paid for with the highest price and most precious price ever paid and that is the Blood of Jesus Christ !!! It is the most wonderful gift and blessing one will ever receive. My heart and my soul rejoice with this peace. I know that no matter what lies ahead of me in the path I trod, that God/Jesus is right here with me seeing me through it all. I have His promise and His reassurance in this. To me that makes it so much dearer is that God/ Jesus is true to His Word. He is true to His promises and when He says it will be, it shall be so. And I praise God for His Word. I praise God for His great Sacrifice at Calvary. I praise God for saving my soul. Our God is awesome.

Do you feel the peace of God in your heart and soul ? If you can't please seek Him , His forgiveness, and you can feel His peace within you. Sometimes we get down in the valley but do you know that even in the valley God will give you His peace if you truly seek it. His peace passeth all understanding. Philippians 4:7 tells us of this, and His peace will keep us if we truly have His peace dwelling within us.
Philippians 4:7
7) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding , shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

I have this peace. It came over me the other day, after I gave something over to God, and realized it was something God had been wanting me to do for a long time. I had kept this burden within me, my heart, my soul and I did not give it completely to God as I should have. But when I gave it over completely to God , His peace filled my heart and soul. No matter what happens , no matter what I am faced with I know that God will see me through it. He is with me just as He is with each of His children. He is standing there waiting for us to learn this lesson.

How many times have you been in a situation that you just couldn't let it go, you had to make the other person see your way, make them know how you felt or how what they had done to you made you feel ? That was wrong. I have done this myself. I am guilty of this myself. I finally realized that this is wrong of me and any of us to do. Yes, tell someone how you feel, share with them your feelings but then let it go. Give it to God. Don't keep harping on the situation because it will make things worse. Speak your piece and then let it go.

If you have God/Jesus in your life you can make it through anything. You can lose your home and everything you own and you will still be okay and you will bounce back as long as you have Jesus/God as your Lord and Saviour. But if you don't have God/ Jesus in your life then you don't have anything. You can have all the riches of this old world and of the devil but if you don't have God/Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you don't truly have anything. Because without God in your life you are lost and doomed to eternal damnation and torment in the Lake of Fire. With God/Jesus in your life and with Him as your Saviour and Lord you have all that truly matters.
When His peace and love fill your heart and soul you will know this to be true. For without Him you have nothing but with Him you have everything.

Yes trials will come, temptation will come, testing will come. But with God and Jesus in your life you will make it through all of these and come through it a better person if you learn the lessons that God is teaching you. God wants to fill you with His peace and Love. It is a precious gift from Him that He wants to bless each of His children with. Please reach out to Him today and seek His forgiveness and ask Him into your life as your Saviour and Lord. Learn the lessons He is teaching you and come through it all holding on to His unchanging hand and you will come out with His peace and Love instilled in your heart and soul. Believe me it is well worth it. For what God/Jesus has to offer you is far better and far out weighs the wages of sin( which is death and the eternal torment of the lake of fire). God/ Jesus offer eternal life in Glory with Him in peace, Love , joy, eternal worship and service to God Almighty, the great I Am.

Let the peace of God enter in to your heart by accepting Him into your life and living your life for Him. His peace is awesome. Nothing compares to what God can give you. Jesus is the best and what He offers His children is the best. He wants the best for His children and He delights in His people. I love God/ Jesus and I thank Him for His glorious peace that dwells within my heart and soul. This , God's peace, is what I want all to know for it is awesome. Our God is awesome.

Autumn

Here it is Autumn again. Another season past. Another year gone by. Time that is behind us can not be regained. The things that we did in our past can not be undone. The things that we have said or done to harm others can not be taken back . We, our self, can not make up to someone what we have done to them willingly to hurt them. Think before you willfully choose to hurt another person.

God can help us to try to seek the forgiveness of someone we have intentionally or willfully hurt in the past. We each need to come to God to first seek forgiveness for the wrong we have done to someone else. Then we need to seek their, the one we have chosen to hurt, forgiveness. Whether it is by sending a letter, an email, making a phone call, paying a visit to them or however the Lord leads one to try to make amends for the wrong they have done someone else, it is time to do that.

We never know how much time God has given us. We are not guaranteed no time past the present moment we are living in. Do you want to die without making things right between you and the one you chose to willfully hurt ? Do you want the one you willfully hurt to die before you have had a chance to make amends with them ? This is something you , each of us, needs to think about ? Do you have a brother or sister that you have not spoken to in years because you had a misunderstanding ? Do you have a parent you have not spoken with in a while or visited in a while because of some slight one of you did the other ? Have you a husband or wife whom you chose to hurt and not sought forgiveness from them yet they have sought your forgiveness ? Do you have a child you either no longer talk to or visit or they do you in this same way ? Have you a friend or family member who you hurt or they hurt you that you have not tried to make things right with ?

I encourage each of you to please seek to make things right with those you have chosen to hurt or those who have chosen to hurt you.At least try to make amends. Let them know of how you feel and that you are trying to understand them and how they feel. Let them know that you bear them no ill wishes or harm even if they do not accept it or even if they were the one that chose to hurt you. We have to forgive those who have chosen to hurt or harm us even if they do not seek our forgiveness. The Lord tells us that if we do not forgive then He will not forgive us.


Matthew 6:14-15
14) For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15) But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
