A GREAT MOMENT!

"Behold, O Lord; for I am in distress - Lamentations 1:20

*******

The needs you face are not there to hide the face of God. Those needs and problems exist for a special reason: for God to meet them, and through them for you to meet God.

It is at a point of need that Jesus comes to us and wakens out interest in the life He brings. It is a great moment when you become aware of your need and of Christ being the answer to that need.

For it is through that need that you begin to comprehend God and accept Him as Lord. Having Jesus, you discover that He is indeed the way for every need to be met.

Oh what needless pain we bear! Jesus is there to carry it all for you - He's there to solve every need and more...

*******

Prayer: Lord Jesus, you are all i need and i thank you for You. Amen

TUNE IN TO MIRACLES!

"And Elisha prayed and said, Lord I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the Lord opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. 

 - 2 Kings 6:17

*******

Everybody needs a miracle from time to time. I do; you do. Or we aren't going to make it. Completely surrounded by the enemy, Elisha and his young servant had to recourse but a miracle from God.

When the servant began to panic, Elisha prayed, "Lord...open his eyes that he may see". And behold the young man saw that the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire. Angels of God...ready to bring a miracle!!

Open your mind to Jesus and tune in to miracles. This very moment there are all kinds of pictures swirling around you that you do not see. There are voices that you do not hear. Just because you can't see the pictures or hear the voices doesn't mean that they aren't there. All you need is a television or radio reciever and this world of hidden pictures and sounds opens up to you.

Jesus, the miracle-worker is all around you. Open your mind to Him and you will tune into miracles - the one you need!

This is a day of Miracles - expect one today!

*******

Prayer: Lord Jesus thank you for being with me even when i fail to see you. Amen

SPEAK YOUR FAITH!

28th July 2012

"Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee withersoever thou goest" - Ezekiel 3:15

*******

The children of Israel went into Cannan to possess the land under the leadership of Joshua. They faced a seemingly impossible task - one which their parents had turned their back on. But the Lord repeatedly admonished them: "Fear not...Be bold and strong! Banish fear and doubt!...Don't ever be afraid or discouraged.

We are not much different today. When trouble comes - say, for instance, you lose your job - Fear says, "How can i provide for my family?" Or, your business is in trouble, Fear says "I'll just have to take bankrupcy". The doctor finds something wrong in your body. Fear says, "It's cancer".

Fear causes you to expect the worst, to look for more bad things to happen. God knows the fear you feel in the pit of your stomach and yet Jesus said, "Be not afraid, only believe." Jesus taught us to doubt our doubts, to reject our fears, and to believe our faith.

Impossible? No...for God doesn't tell you to do something you cannot do. When you feel fear it is time to take a stand. Many times when i have reached an impasse in my life i have had to tell myself "Paul believe! Believe!" I have had to discipline my mind by demanding that it believe God regardless of the circumstances.

Faith...believing God...is a superior force over fear and it brings about miracles.

Expect a miracle today!

*******

Prayer: Lord Jesus Help thou my unbleief. Amen

JESUS SAT WHERE YOU SIT

27th July 2012

"I sat where they sat" - Ezekiel 3:15

*******

Do you ever wonder if anyone has gone through the things that you go through? Do you sometimes feel as if you are utterly alone and nobody understands or cares?

One of the most marvelous things about Christ is His infinite capacity to feel what we feel, to experience what we experience. This is because He, like the Prophet Ezekiel, has sat where we sit. He has been there, and He is there now (Hebrews 4:15,16)

God is not off somehwre in the distance...a God by proxy. He loved man so much that He sent His son Jesus to earth in the form of a human being to walk among the people with problems and needs. God, through Jesus, got down where we are. He sat amidst the hurts and problems that invade your life. So now there is no distance between you and Him, or between the needs and His power to meet them.

Christ's plan for man was twofold: He would walk through life himself, and He would come back to walk us through it. To me that is a powerful thought...knowing that Jesus is by my side helping me through situations that He has already overcome!

His name is Emmanuel - God with us. Halleluyah!

*******

Prayer: Lord Jesus thank you for being with me. Amen

FEEL INADEQUATE?

26th July 2012

"Behold, my family is poor...and I am the least in my father's house" - Judges 6:15

*****

Do you struggle with a sense of inadequacy? Do you feel that you just don't have sufficient resources for the job you are called to do? Gideon had this problem. The Lord called him to deliver His people from the oppression of the Midianites:

Go in this thy might, and thou shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites; have i not sent thee?

God's promises should have been enough for Gideon, but he was looking at himself and his own deficiencies. Gideon reasoned with the Lord that he was from a poor family. And being an unknown with no position, he felt he ws unqualified for such an awesome task

The Lord reassured Gideon:

Surely I will be with thee, and thou shall smite the Midianites as one man.

Just as Gideon became adequate for the task as he placed his trust in God, so God's promise that He has sent you and that He will be with you, is your divine adequacy. When you make God your source, He makes your inadequacies - whether in abilities, finances, resources, or health - more than adequate.

He is your sufficiency!

*****

Prayer: Lord Jesus teach me to trust you. Amen
