I Will Choose to Find Joy

'My flesh and my heart may fai

    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.

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 ...

The Look

Image
' 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 ...

A Warrant to Believe

Image
' By “the Lord” what I mean is the Spirit, and in any heart where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is liberty.' 2 Corinthians 3:17 (VOICE ) Holy Spirit thou art welcome in this place. For wherever the Spirit is there is Life and Liberty. The Spirit brings with it freedom. Joy. Believers, we are blessed. God is gracious. Through the Cross, He has given us a way to be free from the law of sin and death. The veil between us and God has been lifted. The Holy Spirit brings the Light of Christ which illuminates and frees us from former blindness and darkness. The Spirit brings regeneration and sanctification as we are changed and made more like Christ everyday. We are free to walk in the ways of the Lord. Oh how we need thee this very hour Holy Spirit. Issue to us a warrant not as in the world and its laws, but of the gospel to believe. We do believe in You. Thank You Lord! Dear Father We repent to You this day, that we have failed to seek more of You. You kno...
