Romans 6:11 – Be ALIVE TO GOD, alert to Him, through Jesus Christ our Lord!
We must never limit God. He is able and will deliver you! Psalm 27:3 Yes, though a mighty army marches against me, my heart shall know no fear! I am confident that God will save me. If you had a mighty army marching against you, you would have reason to fear. But as we begin to…
This is a great promise. God knows our situations. He knows the kinds of fears you and I battle with. And He wants to be the one who takes care of us. Matthew 10:29 – 31 Not one sparrow (What do they cost? Two for a penny?) can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And…
Fear is different for different people. Some people fear crime and violence. Others fear death. Other people fear financial failure or disaster. Still others fear rejection. Another fear is the loss of a loved one. For these people this fear is very real. Fear can paralyze us. The saying goes: ‘Paralyzed with fear’. But God does not want us to fear. God…
This was one of my own earthly Father’s quotes: ‘It will be worth it all when we see Jesus’ – Pastor Ed Roebert, 17 November 1991 You may be hesitant to let God use you, BUT it will all be worth it when you see Jesus. Perhaps you have been used by God, but now you are…
In Psalm 74 we read how destruction came to Israel. God appeared to be doing nothing to stop the onslaught. The Psalmist writes in Psalm 74:11 ‘Why do You hold back Your hand, Your right hand? Take it from the folds of Your garment and destroy them!’ God, of course, had not dropped them. But this scripture…
God has unusual qualifications for people who He uses. What may be the requirements that the world has, often times means little to God. God is in the business of using those people who are unlikely candidates. I am so glad about this, because this means that God can use me. 1 Corinthians 1:27 But God…
Read 1 Kings 3:1-13 Often we allow what we think about ourselves to stop God’s purposes for us. The great Solomon of the Bible seemed to think he was inferior and ill-prepared for what God had planned for him. 1 Kings 3:7 ‘I am like a little child who doesn’t know his way around.’ He may have…
Many people long to be used by God. Yet many people find this aspect illusive. But God is ready to use you. Perhaps it starts when God calls us to increase in our effectiveness. Many times, before God uses us, we go through a process of stripping, when things seem to go anywhere but where…
Praising God should be our lifestyle of choice. We should ‘bless the Lord at all times’! Psalm 34:1 ‘I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.’ We should praise and bless the Lord at ALL times. This includes the good times and the bad times. The times of…
God wants to come through for us. Mark 11:24 Listen to me! You can pray for anything, and if you believe, you have it; it’s yours! BELIEVE is a strange word – but I believe we must believe God in three areas: A. Believe in the CHARACTER of God. He is faithful and He does…
