I Will Choose to Find Joy

'My flesh and my heart may fail,

    but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.' Psalm 73:26 (ESV)

My heart is strong when I am in the Lord. He is my strength. He is my rock. He is always there through all of my failures and trials to uplift me. His love for me supports me. His love for me sustains me. In life, He is my portion. I've been saved and grafted in to His family. I am a child of God. Though my heart may fail me His never will. God's Heartbeat is strong, strong enough for the both of us. He is my source of everything that is good. The grace of God, and the presence of the Holy Spirit are my inheritance, my source, my hope. He's all that I will ever need.

In the end when my life is over, my Lord will be there to show me that there is no sting, for He himself has removed the sting. As my soul goes to be with Him and enters into His Joy for all eternity, I will rise again with Him in glory and completely incorruptible. He comforts me even in the end. There is so much more than nothingness. Unfathomable riches of Christ await His sons and daughters. Unspeakable joy. Praise be to God. 

Dear Father

I do praise You this morning and all day long. I will read Your Word. I will follow Your path. I will follow Christ where ever He leads me. I will believe. I will obey You. I choose to find Joy. Thank you for being my rock. Thank you for strengthening me. Thank you for the vision of the end and for being there to remove the sting of death. Thank you for the riches in Glory and the Joy that awaits me.

In Jesus' name. Amen.

Called Forth to Life

'When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last—  the Living One. I was dead and, see, I am alive forever and ever! I also hold the keys of death and hell .' Revelation 1:17-18 (EHV) Dear Father.  Because of You and who You are I do not fear. You are Divine. You are Eternal. You are God. You were here before the world began and will be here at the end. Thank You, Father, for sending Your Son Jesus Christ, the Living One, to die for me. I recognized that I was a sinner and I made Jesus Lord of my life. Though You suffered and died, I know that Jesus lives and that He is my life source. Without Him I am nothing. He has complete authority. He has the power over life and death. He controls not only when I die but where I will go after I die as well.You comfort me with Your Word.  Let me be forever grateful and obey Your Word and live my life for Him. Jesus, You alone hav

Sending Out Invitations to the Concert

'We are confident that God is able to orchestrate everything to work toward something good and beautiful when we love Him and accept His invitation to live according to His plan. ' Romans 8:28 (VOICE) One example of God's love can be seen in the book of Esther. Lessons from the Bible can reassure us of God's love for us and they show us that His ways are good and so much higher than our own. How powerful. In Chapter three, the evil ideas of Haman, to have all the Jews exterminated, had been decreed by the king, and the money set aside in an account for the diabolical deeds and the date was set on the calendar for the bloodshed! That part is so incredible, that one man was given that much power. Just imagine it if you were a Jew. The date for the destruction of your entire race was set and the preparations to follow through with it were being made. Thankfully, our God is greater. Our God is able. He is able to confuse the bad plans of men in power. O

  ' Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual' Daniel 3:19 (NIV) To the leaders that are unprepared for the likes of young people full of passion. For the wicked rulers who demand men to bow a knee to them, and worship them like gods. To the world that has lost its way and punishes the faithful to the extreme, even death. We pray for thee. Let the world know that we worship no one but the One True God. Amen. Dear Father We pray for evil leaders that desire to turn their nation into evil. We lift up righteousness and righteous leaders, we lift You up. You are the One True God in whom we serve. You are the Holy God in whom we believe. You provide the God-fearing leaders that we need when we need them. We pray for those leaders. We pray for more people with courage to refuse to bow the knee to mere man. Even when we live in times when there seem
