We are walking in today: Same God.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. The most powerful weapon against fear and worry is scripture. You can find a scripture that pertains to your circumstances no matter what they are and lean on their power to reassure you. But why are the words of the Bible so much more powerful than others? It's because the word of God has been unchangeable down through the centuries, unchangeable and reliable at all times. The God who delivered the Israelites yesterday will deliver you today and your children tomorrow. God's love, power, and almighty presence are unceasing. What a wonderful and reassuring feeling!!! Malachi 3:6 For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Change happens all around us. Day changes to night, the season change, and the circumstance of our lives change. One day we may be up and the next day, down. Even those who love us most change as the days, weeks, and years pass. God was wise enough to understand that we are human and that in our lives change should be part of human condition, yet He also gave us certain constants in our lives. Yes there are seasons, but they follow predictable patterns so that crops can grow and we can appreciate the beauty of nature. Day always follows night so we can rest when we need and wake up each day feeling refreshed. There is constancy to even the changes in our lives that tell us that God's love is always present. Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Knowing that our universe is put together so that we can rely on it to follow a reliable pattern is reassuring. It tells us that God Himself is constant in His love for us, so we need not fear. His loving kindness is eternal and never changing. Even as our lives change, jobs come and go, relationships grow and fade, God is steadfastly loving us and watching over us. God's love, power, and protection are never changing and never ending, no matter what we do or what happens in the universe. We don't have to tell ourselves that things will change when we think about God, He's always been there and always will be. God's almighty presence is with us in all circumstances and conditions, in all places at all times. Any adversity that we face gives God another opportunity for us to experience His great peace, love, and understanding. How wonderful that the Lord is so constant!!!!! You never have to worry about whether He is there for you or not. He is eternal, just as He has always said. Deuteronomy 31:8 And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed. Amen!!!!!
We serve a living God, a God that is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. He still reveals Himself to us. He rose from the grave. He gives sight to the blind. He feeds those who hunger. He can speak a word and give life to dead things. Everything that is spoken by Him comes to pass. He is still right here. He is protecting us--we can trust Him and believe Him. When we are weak, He is strong. He keeps us in perfect peace with our minds stayed on Him. He can open doors that no man can shut and shut door that no man can open. He is opening up a window and pouring out blessings that there will not be room enough to receive. He has all power in His hands. You can believe what He has spoke in your life. 2 Samuel 7:28 And now, O Lord GOD, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant. He is the same God who will give us strength to continue on. Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Weeping may endure for the night but, joy comes in the morning. He is the same God of the encore, He is our anchor and the same God who gave us a guarantee. He let us know that there is still power in the blood. The same God who makes a way out of no way. The same God who delivered the Israelites--will deliver your children. Who the Son sets free, is truly free indeed. He is a keeper. Everything else around you may change, but God changes not. He is constant and eternal. Sometimes things happen to us and bring up doubt. Do not doubt His word, it will come to pass. Wait on His word, it will deliver what He has spoken. He is victorious. He is more than a conqueror. He is more than an overcomer. Hold on the the solid Rock. We can stand on the Rock. Glory to His name!! His love for us will never change. He loves us and calls us friend. We walk and talk with Him day after day. He told us that even though the world is going through a recession, He will make us great during the world's recession. Little becomes great in His hands. He is the same God who fed so many with such a small amount of food. John 6:9-11 9) There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many? 10) And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11) And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. We lift up prayer requests, those known and unknown. Lord we lift up marriages, we know that Your word says let no man put asunder what God has joined together. We ask for forgiveness, for trying to figure it out first--instead of coming to You. We can go to You because You are a keeper. Thank You God for forgiving us over and over again. You showed us what forgiveness looks like, while Your Son was hanging on the cross, asking for forgiveness for even those who had crucified Him. Your word says that there is no condemnation when You forgive. Thank You Lord! Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
We write in the precious blood: Same God.
Welcome to the overflow....
He spoke a word and the world was created. He said let there be light and He shines that light into our lives. He is the same God who was in the fiery furnace Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He is the same God that has delivered so many others, He will deliver you too. We serve a God that never changes. You can always call on Jesus. Late in the midnight hour, you may not be able to call your friends--but we can always call on You. Thank You Lord! He is a on time God. He always shows up when you call on Him. We serve a God that has told us that no weapon that is formed against us shall prosper. I can call on the name of Jesus and the power of the blood and the devil must flee. The Lord will deliver. Hallelujah! To God be the glory. Walk in this word today. Read the scriptures for yourself. He is still the God of suddenly. Tell someone today that He is the same God. He makes a way out of no way. He shows up in the broken pieces. We have to trust who He is. Think about all that He has done. He is gooder and gooder. He has been better to us than we have been to ourselves. Call on God who brought back the keys to the kingdom from hell. He is the same God, that told us that we have not because we ask not. Ask Him--God is answering. His way is not our way, nor His thoughts like our thoughts. As Pastor Anitha, said on yesterday, interruptions in our life are just an opportunity for God to show His divineness. As Pastor Taffe said on Sunday, that we should enjoy watching God move in our lives--have fun with it. Fiveamprayer, our God is an awesome God! Have a blessed day.
