Pearls of Wisdom

Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.  Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.  I am a stranger in the earth:  hide not thy commandments from me.  My soul breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times. (Psalm 119:17-20, KJV)

What are the wonderful things we can receive by following God’s law?

First, of all remember there is freedom when we live within God’s law.  He created it as a loving father creates rules for a son or daughter.  They do so to keep their children from danger.  The Word of God has been given to us to help us see how best to live our lives for God.

Rock Solid

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm.  Let nothing move you.  Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. (1 Corinthians 15:58)

STAND FIRM: Take a stand for what you believe in today!  Let God be the rock that you stand on and on that rock stand firm.  That’s right the Bible says, “stand firm.”  Do not back down from the Truth that is revealed in God’s Word!  Stand firmly for the things of God and let people around you know the Truth in LOVE!

God’s Design

For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. (Psalm 139:13)

Gianna Jessen has a powerful testimony of how God reached in and saved her life.  She is not afraid to share the Gospel of Jesus in a very direct way.  In one statement she says, “I didn’t survive to make people feel comfortable…”  I think sometimes as Christians we become a little too comfortable.  This is a story of a champion.  A woman who survived the odds stacked against her.  Please take time to view her testimony and allow God to embrace your heart through it!

Romans 8 Life

And we know in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)

I’ve been reading and studying Romans 8 a lot lately.  There is so much in this chapter about how to live out the Christian life.  It’s one thing to read it and study it.  It’s another thing to believe it and follow it.  Let’s study it together and believe what God’s Word says!  May the Truth in God’s Word penetrate our lives and lead us to victory in Jesus!

“Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Vs. 1)

My Pocket God

…How long will you waver between two opinions?  If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him. (1 Kings 18:21)

How many of you know someone who is wavering between the One true God and a god of this world?  I happen to know quite a few and I love each opportunity I have to share the Truth of who the real God is.  There is only One who can save those who are dying daily.  There is only One who can stand the test of time and only One who does not demand our good deeds to make it to Heaven.  God Almighty is the only One who is living and active in our lives.  We pray to someone who lives today, who lived long before us, and whose presence we will still enjoy when we leave this earth.  There is no other religion that can claim a Living God, who sent a living sacrifice for our sins.
