God Is Sovereign, And I Am Not

You are God, and I am not.
You knew me before I was formed.
You know the number of hairs on my head.
You sent Your Son for me.
Help me stay grateful—even for the next breath.
I trust You again. Amen."

God's sovereignty isn’t just a doctrine. It’s a pillow for your weary soul. Rest on it tonight.

Division Is The Visions

What we learned today is that God works through unity, and unity comes when God’s people rally around leadership that carries His vision for His Church. As we bond and rally around His vision, we experience God's provision — the word “provision" means “for the vision.”

In contrast, Satan operates through division. Since division essentially means 'two visions,' there can be no unity until everyone embraces one vision—God’s vision—and works together to bring it about.

Valleys

We have to do our part, we must dig the well. However, when that time comes when we can't do anything else. When our resources have run out when, there is no way out or no way through. God steps in and meets the need. Note that God often will not do only what He can do until we do all we can do. When we come to the end of ourselves. The God connects, it's been said that God is all you need until He is all you have.

Arising From The Baggage

Everyone carries baggage. It’s really not a question of if, but how much. What we must allow God to do in our lives is help us shed the baggage that can hinder us from fulfilling our purpose and destiny. We must let go of it as God highlights it in order to move toward wholeness. Removing the baggage from our lives that keeps us from prospering, that keeps us from fulfilling our purpose and destiny in our lives.

Rise Up!

SO, IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING OR IN BONDAGE, It is time to Rise Up! from under the table. The glory of the God has arisen upon us, and He gave us power to  trample.

Sickness, fear, death, anxiety, anger, jealousy, pride, unforgiveness, lust and addiction AND ALL THINGS THAT BIND US.

He will restore your thumb and big toes if you get up from under the table.

BECAUSE GREATER IS HE WHO IS IN YOU THAN HE WHO IS IN THE WORLD...WE CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS US

 

The Bronze Serpent

While we are to put our trust in God and His Word for everything in life, how much more must we turn to Him and His instructions when we are facing times of crisis? Like the Israelites, when we have been “snake-bit,” we are to look to God’s revelation of His will as found in His Word; when we do so by faith, we will receive the remedy that is found therein. This grace is found and mediated to us through God’s work in Christ. Whoever looks to Him in faith will also live and will also be healed.

The Right Response!

For those who are Christian’s, resting in the victory Jesus won us at the cross, let us strengthen our commitment to the Lord and truly, from a true heart of worship, make a dedicated decision to stay the course, in humility seeking God to make us holy vessels through which His power can be released in our lives to accomplish His purpose in this world. Jesus paid the price for your sins and by sincerely receiving His forgiveness in your life and asking Christ to begin a new life in you.

7 Letters To 7 Churches Part 8

 

We have a great High Priest who passed through the heavens and dwelt with us, taking on the form of a human and living life here with us. He was tempted in all ways, just as we are, yet without sin. This gives us great freedom to fall boldly at His throne to seek help in times of need because He understands exactly what we’re going through. He knows. He’s been there Himself. He overcame, and that’s the greatest news of eternity. Jesus Christ overcame. He conquered. As we read through these promises to the overcomer, we remember how it is we overcome. We are overcomers through His victory – and His victory in our lives.

 

Jesus, Who Is He?

The predominant theme of the Scriptures is the Person and the work of Jesus Christ. He is God. He became a human being, died by crucifixion, and was buried. He rose again from the dead. He is the only, all-sufficient Savior of the world. He will come again to this earth. I pray that today, God’s revelation has pierced the enemy's veil, that your eyes have been opened to who Jesus truly is, and that you, too, will call on Him.

7 Letters To 7 Churches Part 7

Jesus said, “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the worldyou will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.

 We can take the assurance that the people we desperately want to be, the God whom we desperately want to please, and the place where we desperately want to live is coming. All we have to do is hold fast to the word of Jesus. Let’s stake it all on that unchanging, never-failing Word.
