"Is It Not I, the Lord?"

 

In God's infinite power, I know I could be healed in an instant (snap your fingers here). In God's infinite wisdom, He has me exactly where He meant to have me. Thank You, Jesus.

"Moses said to the LORD, 'Oh, my Lord, I am not eloquent, either in the past or since you have spoken to your servant, but I am slow of speech and of tongue.' Then the LORD said to him, 'Who has made man's mouth? Who makes him mute, or deaf, or seeing, or blind? Is it not I, the LORD? Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.'"
(Exodus 4:10-12)

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
   neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
   so are my ways higher than your ways
   and my thoughts than your thoughts."

(Isaiah 55:8-9)

Waiting On A Sign From God

 

For those of you waiting on a sign from God, has it occurred to you that God may be waiting on a sign from you?

Two overwhelming themes in the Bible are 1) Have Faith, and 2) Take Action.

Consider that while you’re ‘waiting on God,’ He very likely is doing the same with you.

HFTA! Have Faith, & Take Action.

God says in Proverbs that even with all our dreams and plans, He directs our steps. Take Action! Let Him lead you, and He will. But take action. HFTA!

And may the Lord bless you all throughout your journey.  

A Prayer for Today

Thank You, Father, for being the one, true, Almighty God. Please, protect us as we go forth -- but help us to live adventurously. In Jesus’ name we ask for your blessings and guidance, Lord. Amen.

He's Talking About You

 

Paul was sent by Jesus to share god's offer of His son to us -- the outsiders, the pagans, the non-Jews. What Jesus Said to Paul was this, straight out of the Bible:

 

"I'm sending you off to open the eyes of the outsiders so they can see the difference between dark and light, and choose light, see the difference between Satan and God, and choose God. I’m sending you off to present my offer of sins forgiven, and a place in the family, inviting them into the company of those who begin real living by believing in me."

(Acts 26:17-18)(MSG)

 

Prayer for Today

Thank You, Father, for your son, Jesus Christ the Risen Messiah. Please, open the eyes of my heart. Do not let me lead myself any longer. Give me your Spirit, Lord. I open myself to you now, the best I know how. I want you. Please, make me yours and lead me down your narrow path. In Jesus name I ask this. Amen.
