Heart That is Believing

'A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.' Proverbs 17:22 (EHV)

The heart of a believer is a cheerful heart. A believer finds joy in every situation. Joy is like medicine. A believer's joy cannot be contained. Whenever a believer is around the joy of the Lord is present. The joy of the Lord is like medicine. Not all situations are great but our God is greater. 

Dear Father

Thank you for Your Word. Thank you that Your Word renews my joy every morning. I choose to keep my mind fresh and stayed on You and to live under Your Grace. You are Good. Your Love fills my heart to overflowing, so that I might see the plans that You have for me this day. Plans to prosper me. Plans that are rich in abundance of good deeds and plentiful harvest. Plans of health in relationships and mind, body and spirit. Plans that include doing my part to build Your Kingdom. Plans that include loving those with the Love of Christ, that You have placed in my path. Save them all Lord.

In You; I plan to stay true to Your Word and to hold up my shield of Faith. I plan to find Hope, Freedom and Life among the dry bones, crushed spirits and ashes. I plan to plant Your Seeds of Faith among the good soil while having the courage to carry on with a cheerful heart and to lay down the cares of this world. These are trying times. Father, continue to build in me the kind of evidence that would convict me if I were accused and tried in a court of law for being a believer. In You there is nothing lacking, in me find Joy. Continue to work all things out for Good. I Believe Lord.

In Jesus' name.

Amen.

The Day of the Lord Approaches

' not forgetting to gather as a community, as some have forgotten, but encouraging each other, especially as the day of His return approaches.' Hebrews 10:25 (VOICE) Days of future trials are coming and yet are here. Last days. The day of His return approaches. No one knows the hour. So we are told to be even more diligent in our calling. We should be always watching, praying and bringing a word of encouragement to one another through the power of God. For what signs and wonders happen in the House of the Lord! Oh so amazing. The Miraculous. God provides the Fire. The battle is the Lords. We are told not to fret but only to enjoy the ride as we thank Him. So as I pray I want to thank you Lord. I am totally devoted to You. Equip me to preach the gospel. Now is the time and I will not forget my mission. As I arise I will not forget to put on my Full Armor of God. I will cling to your Bible. I am committed to carry it with me. I will hold it up as a sword in the town

Up is Down Times

‘What sorrow for those who say that evil is good and good is evil, that dark is light and light is dark, that bitter is sweet and sweet is bitter.’ Isaiah 5:20.   The Word of God really is like a light unto my feet, it illuminates my thoughts, it justifies my behaviors. The Word of God is good.    The Word of God is good because it reveals the Truth. God is Truth. God warns those that light up the darkness in order to rebel against Him. Darkness is sin. And in darkness sin is used to cover up sin. Lies are told to justify the ungodly; bitter is sweet, dark is light, up is down. Woe to those that condone and therefore justify sin. God will deal with them justly. God is Holy. Justice will be served.   And don't we see it being played out on the intellectual side? Being smart in the ways of the world might gain you some position of power and some stuff, but worldliness is lacking in righteousness and it will never prevail. There is nothing wrong with having nice things, bu

The Look

' Looking straight into their eyes, Jesus replied, “Humanly speaking, no one, because no one can save himself . But what seems impossible to you is never impossible to God!”' Matthew 19:26 (TPT) So if the poor deal with envy and the rich with pride, who then can get in? Who can be saved? None, except through the grace of God. Only God can save us. Only God can change the hearts and minds of men. Nothing is impossible to Him.  Dear Father Thank you for loving us and sending us Your Son Jesus our Savior even while we were yet sinners. When we were sinners You pursued us and turned our hearts toward You.  With just one look You could see into our souls. You knew what we needed. You did what needed to be done. You did the thing that seemed impossible to man. You perfected a Way for us to be reconciled to You and even with our sinful natures. You made converts out of us. It's nothing we could have done on our own without You. We could never doubt You. You cleaned us
