We choose our attitude every day. Jesus never had a bad attitude even though a lot of bad things happened to him. Psalm 84:11…the Lord will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. God wants us to choose a right attitude no matter what happens.
God doesn’t want us to stop growing when we get saved until we die. Grace is divine help, special help for my tasks; loving kindness and mercy that is sufficient to aid us in any danger, to enable us to have strength to bear any trouble mentally. Grace is the ability to handle any situation […]
God’s promise that he’ll be with us is the same today. He said not to fear when the enemy comes. We don’t have to doubt. Deuteronomy 20:1-4 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, be not afraid of them…thy God is with […]
The apostles learned to be stedfast after they were saved. They didn’t always act Christ-like before receiving the Holy Ghost. I Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. Before Jesus […]
Paul and Silas were in prison because they healed a woman from a spirit of divination so her master couldn’t make money by her. They weren’t in the prison saying “woe is me” but they were singing praises to God (Acts 16:16-25). James 1:2-3 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers […]
As a Christian, we can count on having conflicts. It’s a part of everyday life. Goliath was the focal point of the conflict the Israelites faced and they were afraid of him. He was over 9 feet tall and there was no one around that was so tall. I Samuel 17:1-11 Now the Philistines gathered […]
The stress in each of our lives is caused by the way we individually handle our circumstances. Psalm 37:1-3 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither …Trust in the Lord, and do good…dwell in the […]
It takes sanctification and that we have no reservations for what we will do to endure all things and serve God. II Timothy 2:10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. Job endured when he couldn’t see God […]
Whatever you do in word (what we say) or deed (our actions), do all in the name of Jesus. That means our words and actions need to be in harmony with his will and under his authority. If Jesus can’t approve of it, then it isn’t in his name. Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do […]
When God speaks to us it is clear, without static or confusion. It is specific and we know it is him. If it’s confusing, we know it’s from the devil because God is not the author of confusion (I Corinthians 14:33). We can have confidence that God hears our prayer, but we may not be […]
