Tempted and Tried

Tempted and tried, we’re oft made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long,
While there are others living about us,
Never molested, though in the wrong.
Farther along we’ll know all about it,
Farther along we’ll understand why;
Cheer up, my brother, live in the sunshine,
We’ll understand it all by and by.

SOUTHERN FOLK HYMN

Yeshua is always by your side if you will just look to Him! Have a good day!

Until next time…“May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

Thought for Today

The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, and prayerless religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.

Samuel Chadwick

So, make him tremble all the time. Always rejoice, constantly pray, in everything give thanks. For this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. (1 Thess 5:17)

Until next time…“May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

What are You Made For?

 “We are wired to shape the world around us.” (Rabbi S. Klayman)

Yes, you and I were created by God to shape and mold, to influence our family, our friends, our neighbors, and even our government. I ask myself, “Self, what are you molding through your life?” I ask you the same question. Are you making a place for God to dwell through the way you live for God? Are you influencing your world for Him? Or, are you exalting thoughts, activities, and actions that are contrary to God?

Everything you do, and I mean everything, can make a place for God’s Presence, thus making His Presence available to others. Commit today, this very moment, to live your life in such a way that He shines through you. 

If He isn’t the focus of your life, if you have never acknowledged Yeshua as your Savior and the Lord of your life, do so now. It will be the best decision you ever make in your life.

Whatever you are doing, work at it with enthusiasm, as to the Lord and not for people, because you know that you will receive your inheritance from the Lord as the reward. Serve the Lord Christ. For the one who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there are no exceptions. Col 3:23-25 NET

But be sure you live out the message and do not merely listen to it and so deceive yourselves. James 1:22 NET

Therefore be very careful how you live—not as unwise but as wise, taking advantage of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Eph. 5:15-16 NET

…And each one must be careful how he builds. 1 Cor 3:10b NET

Until next time…“May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

What is Prayer?

We look upon prayer simply as a means of getting things for ourselves, but the biblical purpose of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself. —OSWALD CHAMBERS

Thought for 2/18/2021

God’s way is perfect! All of the Lord’s promises prove true! He is a shield for all who look to Him for protection.

What Evil Needs

Evil talks about tolerance until it is in control…Never forget that the only thing evil needs is for good people to remain quiet.

Father Kirby

Withering America

“A disease that lies in the spirit cannot be cured by that which doesn’t”*

We have been watching America wither away morally and spiritually for many years. The politicians are campaigning that they will fix everything–“they”, not God! At least I haven’t heard any say that God would do the fixing, the curing. As Jonathan Cahn said in his recent book, “A spiritual disease cannot be answered by cures rooted in other realms, political cures, economic cures, ideological cures. No such cure can stop the withering. A spiritual disease can only be answered by a spiritual cure.”*

Are those of us who follow Yeshua willing to pay the price to obtain that cure? God is the source of that cure, but it starts with each of us. In our hearts, yes, but also in the way we live openly for Yeshua!  It will require spending significant time on our knees beseaching God! It will require standing up publically against the antichrist forces that want to see the US continue to wither! And, it will require the dedication of every believer–there is so much that needs changed in our personal lives, the “church”, our government,  and our nation in general.

Where, oh where do you start? If you haven’t voted, do so according to scripture, not according to your pocketbook or the personality of the candate. Once you’ve voted, find ways in your daily life to blatantly live out your faith. Doing so with love for your fellow man, regardless of his views, but being strong and forthright about the truth!

Until next time…”May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

* Jonathan Cahn, The Harbinger II, Charisma House

Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord, all nations! Extol [praise highly, exalt] Him, all peoples! For great is His steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!

Ps 117

Ps 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible, yet it provides an excellent summary of the character of our God. His love for you never changes! Regardless of what you see going on around you or in your own life, if you call Him your God, He is always faithful to you, is always there with you!

Until next time…”May the LORD bless and protect you…May He give you Shalom.” (Numbers 6:24-26)

Be Optimistic

“Seek the Father’s Kingdom, and everything will be provided according to His perfect will and in His perfect timing. We can be optimistic about that!”

See Luke 12:22-31.

Quote of the Day

“If you believe in a God who controls the big things, you have to believe in a God who controls the little things. It is we, of course, to whom things look ‘little’ or ‘big’.”

Elisabeth Elliot, Missionary to South America

Until the next time…“May the LORD bless you and watch, guard, and keep you; May the LORD make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you; May the LORD lift up His face toward you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).” (Numbers 6:24-26)
