GOD's Light

Psalm 119:105

It is awesome to think about the power that light has. One little flicker can dispel a room full of darkness, or illuminate dark corners in the mind and soul.

Jesus is the true light to a world engulfed in darkness. His light shines in the darkness, but the world refuses to comprehend and is lost. The path to eternal life and happiness is obscured by folly and mirth.

Arise, shine; for the light is come..Let the Light in.

Receive JESUS!

Another New Year! Stand Fast in the LORD

Every New Year's eve I make it a point to be in church on my knees praying that the new year will be far better than the last.

I believe the way I start out the year determines how my year will go.

Well from the looks of things so far, it has started out the same as last year or maybe even worse.

But God said, in His word, do not look at the circumstances, but look at me. However, I need to understand just what is going on; if it is me that is causing the onslaught of doom and gloom. Maybe I need an attitude check. My faith is hanging by a thread attached to His garment. He reminded me that's all I need to believe that He has not forsaken me and never will.

Therefore, having said all that, all I need is to TRUST HIM! He has a plan worked out for me all I need to do is relax and check the attitude. As the book of Proverbs says; Get Wisdom! Get Understanding!

"These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you might have peace, in the world you shall have tribulation:but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." John 16:333 New KJV

RESTORATION

Psalm 23:3

"He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His namesake." ( KJV)

God's word is true. In November I took a long moment to be still. To rest from my striving. To wait on the LORD.

Father God promises in Isaiah, Chapters 30 & 32, that if you are still you will be strong, peaceful, and assured, because you will hear a word behind you saying ,"This is the way. The LORD shall cause His glorious voice to be heard."

I heard the word Restoration, and I rejoiced. All that was stolen from me by the enemy is being restored. Praise The LORD!

He is:

Jehovah-Jireh- The Lord our Provider;

Jehovahh-Nissi, The Lord our Banner;

Jehovah-Tsidkenu, The Lord our Righteousness;

Jehovah-Shalom, The Lord our Peace;

Jehovah-Shammah, The Lord Who is there;

Jehovah-Sabaoth, The Lord of Hosts;

He is the all-sufficient One, The self-existent One, The One who upholds all things by the word of His power. He is The Lord our sanctifier. He is Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. He is the Bright and Morning Star. He is the Lily of the Valley; He is the Bread of Life; He is the True Vine; He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

He is more than enough for any situation that I/you find ourselves in. He cares about and He loves all of His children.

Remember who He is this Christmas and the reason you have to celebrate.

HAVE A BLESSED CHRISTMAS AND A RESTORED NEW YEAR!!

The Pursuit Of Peace

Have you tried everything suggested to you to by friends, family and significant others to find peace in your mind? Did any of the suggestions work? Did any of them give you everlasting peace? Did you find peace in the midst of all the turmoils? I'm sure you didn't unless you opened up God's Word and began to read His many promises to give you a permanent peace. A peace unlike any that you temporarly found. A peace so sweet that you can lie your head down on your pillow at night and drift off into a tranquil restful sleep without waking with a chemical hangover.

Youv'e tried everything else, now try God and His way. That is the only way to everlasting peace.
