March 23rd 2025 – Safe and Secure with Jesus


“I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)

I want you to fully understand the safety and security you have in God’s presence. If you have invited Jesus into your life, you are on the path to heaven, and nothing can hinder you from reaching that glorious destination. When you leave this life, you will have the incredible joy of seeing Him face to face, a joy that surpasses all earthly experiences. Even now, you are never separated from Him, even if you must see Him through the eyes of faith. He will walk with you until the end of time and beyond into eternity.

There may be moments when we don’t always feel His presence. Here are just a few of God’s promises to remind you:

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Deuteronomy 31:6)

“The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” (Deuteronomy 31:8)

“No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you.” (Joshua 1:5)

“May the LORD our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may He never leave us nor forsake us.” (1 Kings 8:57)

“Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’” (Hebrews 13:5)

While we may choose to turn away from God, He will never abandon us. Regardless of how bleak a situation may seem or how empty you might feel, remember that God is always with you! His promises are unwavering, and His word stands above all else. We can move forward with confidence, knowing He goes before us. And if God is for us, who can stand against us?

When you forget His presence, you may experience feelings of loneliness or fear. It is through the awareness of His presence that peace can replace negative emotions. Make it a practice to walk consciously with Jesus each day.

“God’s promise: Safe and Secure in His Presence”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for walking with me and providing peace. I surrender each day to You, asking that You use me to help others come to know You. Continue to shape me into the person You have destined me to be. I love You, Lord. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

If you do not know Jesus personally,  I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior please click here Click here

January 3rd 2025 – Focus On The Things Above

“The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.” (John 11:44)

Symbolically, Lazarus is like many Christians. The Bible speaks of us passing from death unto new life when we are born again. However, it is also true that in the physical and emotional realm, we bring our “grave clothes” from our old life with us (i.e., habits, attitudes, depression, etc.), and we need to be “loosed” to fully enjoy our life as Christians.

Our emotions and attitudes follow what we think. When we focus our attention on our problems, they are magnified out of proportion. When we neglect our problems and think on God’s provision, the answer is magnified, and the problem shrinks. Whatever we think upon will dominate us. If we think on depressing things, we’ll be depressed. If we think on uplifting things, we’ll be uplifted. If we think, “By His stripes, we are healed,” we’ll be healed. If we think on sickness, we’ll be sick.

Godly contentment isn’t dependent upon circumstances. That is totally the opposite of the way most people think today. No one really desires depression, but very few feel any responsibility or authority to maintain positive emotions in the face of negative circumstances. They think emotions follow circumstances. That’s not true. Emotions follow the way we think, and we can choose to think on things that are lovely, true, of good report, and so forth, regardless of our circumstances. As we think, so we respond emotionally.

Focus your attention on the invisible truths of the spiritual realm that are eternal, instead of the visible things of this physical world that will pass away.

“We all have a measure of faith. What we choose to put our faith in will ultimately guide our decision-making, our perspective, and the course of action for our lives.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the love You have shown me through the death and resurrection of Jesus. Help me to hold firm to this Truth so that my faith will continue to grow. Fill me with Your Spirit daily so that I will stop hearing the lies from the enemy. Protect me and help teach me that I can have real hope. Encourage me to focus on Your written word when You feel distant in my life. Also, help me share with anyone who needs to hear the Gospel message. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Put your faith and trust in Jesus! If you do not know Him personally, please read below.

Jesus Christ says, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20).

The Bible promises eternal life to all who receive Christ: “God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John 5:11-13).

God has made it possible for you to know Him and experience an amazing change in your own life. Click here  to discover how you can find peace with God.

November 21th 2024 – God’s Provision

“Your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need.” (Matthew 6:32-33)

God promises to meet all our financial needs if we sincerely ask Him for help, learn how to be content, practice giving in faith, maintain our integrity, and trust Him with our lives.

Worry is honestly just a form of not believing in God. Every time you worry, you’re acting like an atheist. You’re saying, “It all depends on me.” That’s not what the Bible says.

Worry is a warning light that indicates doubt in the love of God. Yet, the Bible says God “provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever.” (Psalm 111:5)

The book of Romans tells us that God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross to pay for our salvation. If God loves us enough to send His own Son to die for us, don’t you think He loves us enough to take care of our bills?

Moreover, He solved our biggest problem when He saved us. The bottom line is really this: Am I going to believe that God will do what He says He will do — that He will provide for me?

Plain and simple, God wants us to trust in His provision for our needs, and sometimes that provision requires us to step out in faith and use the resources He has given us. It may not seem like a lot to us, but God can multiply our efforts when we trust Him.

“Therefore, we never stop thanking God that when you received His message from us, you didn’t think of our words as mere human ideas. You accepted what we said as the very word of God — which, of course, it is. And this word continues to work in you who believe.” (1 Thessalonians 2:13)

“God Wants Us to Trust Him”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I ask that You increase within me Your obedient spirit so that I may follow Your instruction. Help me, Lord, to walk by faith and not by sight. I don’t always understand what You’re doing in my life, but I choose to trust You. I ask in true faith that You will provide for my needs. Place within me joy, peace, and rest to endure all that comes my way. Right now, I make the decision to trust You, Lord, because I know that You’re in control of my life, even when it seems to be out of control. Lord, I thank You for clarity, guidance, provision, and strength. I pray and ask for these things in Jesus’ name, Amen.

If you do not know Jesus personally, I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here

November 17th 2024 – Open Our Eyes to Truth

“Jesus said, ‘For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind will see and those who see will become blind.’ Some Pharisees who were with him heard him say this and asked, ‘What? Are we blind too?’ Jesus said, ‘If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin; but now that you claim you can see, your guilt remains.” (John 9:39-41)

Spiritual blindness is a profound condition that many individuals experience, often without being aware of its presence. It signifies an inability to grasp essential spiritual truths and to recognize the active work of God in our lives. In the passage from the Gospel of John, Jesus addresses the Pharisees, who were self-assured in their understanding of the Scriptures yet remained oblivious to their spiritual shortcomings. Their extensive knowledge did not equate to a genuine comprehension of God’s heart and intentions.

When we become overly confident in our ability to see and understand, we risk falling into complacency, relying solely on our own insights and experiences rather than earnestly seeking God’s guidance. This arrogance can lead to a form of spiritual blindness, where we fail to perceive the richness of God’s grace and the depths of His mercy.

The challenge lies in acknowledging that spiritual insight does not come from human wisdom alone; it is a gift from God. The more we claim to possess clarity, the more we must examine whether we are truly in touch with divine truth or merely living in the shadows of our presumption.

Take a few moments of quiet reflection, inviting God to reveal to you any areas of your life where you may be experiencing spiritual blindness. Consider how you can actively seek His wisdom and guidance in your journey, fostering an openness to the transformative truths He wishes to unveil.

“When we rely on our own wisdom, we risk pride and spiritual blindness, missing the depth of God’s grace and mercy.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You seeking illumination for my soul. Open my eyes to the areas of my life where I may be spiritually blind. Grant me the discernment to recognize the powerful truths embedded in Your Word, and help me to sense Your presence in every aspect of my daily life. Instill in me a humble heart that acknowledges my need for Your wisdom, and the grace to pursue a deeper understanding of Your ways. May I never reach a point of self-assuredness that blinds me to the beautiful revelations You desire to share with me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

If you do not know Jesus personally, Give yourself the greatest gift you could possible ever receive. I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us. If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, please click here

November 15th 2024- Finding Hope in Grief

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” (Psalm 34:18)

Grief is a deeply personal journey, one that can feel overwhelming and isolating. When we lose someone we love, it’s natural to experience a range of emotions – sadness, anger, confusion, and even relief. In these moments, it’s essential to remember that God is near to us, especially when our hearts are broken.

Jesus Himself experienced grief, as seen in John 11:35, where He wept at the death of His friend Lazarus. It’s a powerful reminder that grief is not a sign of weakness but a testament to the love we shared with those we’ve lost.

Action Steps:

1. Acknowledge Your Feelings:

Take time to be honest with yourself about your emotions. Write them down in a journal or express them through prayer.

2. Reach Out:

Don’t hesitate to talk to friends, family, or a spiritual leader. Sharing your feelings can lighten the burden and bring support.

 3. Create a Memory Ritual:

Consider creating a special ritual to honor your loved one. This could be lighting a candle, planting a tree, or simply spending time reflecting on the happy memories you shared.

 4. Seek Comfort in Scripture:

Spend time reading passages that speak to God’s love and comfort. Psalms and the Gospels are filled with encouragement for those who mourn.

 5. Be Patient with Yourself:

Grief doesn’t have a timeline. Allow yourself the grace to heal at your own pace.

 As you walk through your grief, remember that God is your refuge. He understands your pain and is there to carry you through the darkest days. Trust in His promise that one day, all tears will be wiped away, and we will be reunited with our loved ones in His eternal presence.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, in my sorrow, I turn to You for comfort and healing. Help me to navigate this painful time with Your grace. Remind me that it’s okay to grieve and that I am not alone in my suffering. May Your presence bring me peace, and may I find hope in the promise of eternal life through Christ. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Do you have a personal relationship with Him? That is the ultimate decision you will have to make. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves you and wants to help you.
