New Management

When your faith is failing you; you need new management!

"Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men." 1Thessalonians 5:14 KJV

"Yea, the stork in the heaven knoweth her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgement of the LORD." Jeremiah 8:7 KJV

Father God always warns us ahead of time so we will be in the right place at the right time. Eventually, you learn to like the way Father God works everything out for your good and His Glory.

Don't let the drama overtake you!

Father God never allows any trial or tribulation to come upon you that the Holy Spirit has not first warned you of its coming. If He is allowed, the Holy Spirit will prepare you ahead of time to be a victorious overcomer at the finish.

"The harder the conflict; the more glorious the triumph."

Father God waits on us to get out of the way so that He can show us The Way less traveled, which leads to The Kingdom of God.

Everything I need to go to the next level is inside of me right now. Jesus Christ is LORD!!

GOD's Promises

I have discovered through all of my past testings and trials that forced my faith to focus on and believe the promises of God, that there is indeed power in His word.

I learned that there I have a choice to look at the circumstances and sink into depression and despair, or to believe God's promises and rise up to victory. I choose to do the latter. Now today I have the VICTORY over my present dilemma.

"How?" you ask. Here are the promises Father God gave me to rely on daily;

1. "I will never leave you or forsake you." Deuteronomy 31;6; JOSHUA 1:5; HEBREWS 13:5.

2. "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD; I SHALL NOT WANT..." Psalm 23:1.

3. "For I am the LORD who heals you." Exodus 15:26.

4. "Peace I give you; not as the world give do I give to you... John 14:27.

5. "My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:19.

6. "Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy." Psalm 126:5.

7. "I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; for you alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.: Psalm 4:6.

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 Virtue and Power of Patience

James 1:3-4

"Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."

• Many times I do not want to be patient. I want prayer to hurry up and be answered. I don't want to wait like Hannah for years for my answer, but God... He knows that only to the patient observer does nature reveal her secrets. Like the patient squirrel cracking a nut, or the cat stalking and waiting for its prey, and forget not the ant.

• In my study of scripture I came across the formula for developing patience. First faith,(in time of persecutions and tribulations), then suffering, then endurance produces the fruit to fulfill the promise of God. The weeds of impatience rob me of the promise every time. Fear is a weed. Fear gives the devil power to rob me of my blessings. In proportion to my faithfulness to God's word will be the development of my patience.

Luke 21:19 "In your patience possess your soul."

• Set patience as a guard to keep out all fear, doubt, discouragement, and negative thoughts from the enemy. Put on the full armour of God, Ephesians 6:10-18, and stand in victory.

STAND

Stand on God's Word!

Stand in the Blessings!

Stand in the liberty of Christ!

Stand in the true Grace of Father God! Stand in the Unity of the Faith!

"And after having done all to stand; STAND"! Ephesians 6:11-13

The power of God is the Armour. Beloved, put on the Armour of God so that you can stand against the wiles of the devil, other wise defeat is inevitable. When you said yes to God, you became a solider in His army. Therefore you can not be caught daily without your armour .

Deception is the number one game of the devil in these last days before the celebrated return of The LORD Jesus Christ.

The deeds of darkness feed upon lies. The breastplate of righteousness makes you invincible. The Word of God, which is all truth, dispels the lies and deception coming at you from the pit. Your shield of faith stops doubt. Your feet shod in peace kills confusion. And the helmet of salvation protects your mind and soul.

Decide today to wholly follow The LORD, and pray continually in the Spirit so that you can STAND on victory ground until Jesus comes.
