God , Jehova Jireh stir our souls...........

The sound of your magnificent name stirs our souls and spirits in this sweet moment of silence.

Our prayer and clarion call goes forth to you in praise and adoration. Jehovah Jireh, we desire to become part of this glorious body of Christ. Hear now the the prayers from our hearts of faith, with determine wills, and belief that you are always with us, we call for your love, mercy and grace.

Jehovah Jireh, from your crystal fountain of redemptive love, from the far corners of the universe we recognize the manifestations of your powerful spirit and grace in our lives. Here we commit with faith and come boldly to your throne of grace.

We thank you for all you have done and will do for us. You know each of us by name and the number of hairs upon our head. Many times we have fallen short but you have exonerated us with your love and grace. Allow us refuge , heal those who are ill , for you are the great physician, touch those who need you this very moment, deliver and set the captive free from bondage...Jehovah Jireh.

Jehovah Jireh! Give us the passion, the fire that you bestowed upon the disciples in the upper room. When we falter in our faith allow us to be reminded of Jesus who hung upon Calvary's Tree of suffering and death for each of us. But, also, allow us to claim that resurrected power for

victories in our lives.

Jehovah Jireh! Mold us and make us....renew us and inspire us, redeem us and transform us...open blinded eyes with amazing grace, shelter us from the raging life storms...withness to our shallow faith and renew the joy of your salvation in our lives.

Confidence In God

What do you do when you are surrounded by the Lions of life , chaos, discouragement, helplessness, hopelessness, disappointments, frustrations, fear?

Where do you turn when there is no way out or it appears there is no way out of trying situations that are presented by life?

Being surrounded by the Lion's of life does... can, and will create challenges to our faith. It is a time of really letting go and surrendering ourselves to God...and placing our faith on the Altar of Grace.

Confidence in God is rooted in your personal faith and relationship with God. You and I are aware of the story of Daniel as told in Daniel the 6th chapter.

The King spoke to Daniel and said...Daniel, your God whom you continually serve will deliver you? Daniel was about to be placed in the Lion's Den for holding to his faith and belief in an awesome God.

Daniel had not followed the King's law. Daniel knew if he did follow something totally against his belief in God he would bear false witness to a living God. Since Daniel declared to stand in his faith he was placed in a Lions Den. The scripture states that a stone was brought and laid in front of the mouth of the Lion's Den.

We need to be truthful....life does present us with many challenging situations. Many persons have been in the Lion's Den, or they are already in the Lion's Den and want to give up, and if not in the Lion's Den will one day be thrown into a place of inevitable threat. The obstacles and stone placements in our lives are very real.

However, it is not a question of the Lion's Den and how many Lion's are in our personal den....

The question is one of faith. That is... faith in God who will deliver. An unwavering faith which is unshakable regardless of the circumstances or situations. This faith is to personally know that God is able to deliver you.

Consider this 'Beloved', no weapon formed against you shall prosper!

Consider this 'Beloved', if God be for you who can be against you !

Consider this 'Beloved', God will open doors for you that no man can close!

Yes, a stone was placed at the mouth of the Lion's Den, and it did appear to be a hopeless situation. However, no one but God could already be in the midst of the Lions with his 'AWESOME POWER' to close their mouths and keep them calm.

So it is with you and I at this very moment, this anointed moment ....that God is present in the midst of our crisis, challenges, frustrations and fear.. God says Be Still.

Surrender your faith on the Altar of Grace and see who comes forth from the Lion's Den with no harm done to them...see who comes forth with an uplifted banner of victory and deliverance. Surrender your faith to God who knows you and your trials.

Say to the Lion's in your Lion's Den....Hush, be still....God is Here.....I will, I must hold and stand in faith.

God delivered Daniel and God will deliver you! Hush...God is present !

A Word Called 'Grace'...

Jesus is Lord and God is in Control !

Recently, I have heard many people speak of the recession.  I have heard many comments that will let one know that things are not well with many people.  It is a truth that many people are suffering.  Many people spirits are broken, and they have just about given up on their personal faith in a God who is able

to do all things according to his purpose.  

As a boy I would watch my grandmother in difficult times. Times were difficult and times are difficult.  Ask yourself the question, how does my personal life difficulties stand in the light of the Grace of God.  A word called 'Grace'...

I would wonder how my grandmother would keep going no matter what. How could she make so much out of so little? Then I thought about how Jesus could take a little and turn it into so much.  Your forefathers and mothers probably did the same...take a little and turn it into much.  

Jesus, you remember... took five loaves of bread and two fish and fed a multitude of 5, 000 or more souls.  Jesus took water and turned it into wine.  Jesus took illness and turned it into health.  Jesus took broken spirits and restored them to wholeness. 

The man running through the tombs was never the same after meeting Jesus!  Jesus restored his sanity! The woman who had the issue of blood...touch the hem of Jesus's garment and she

was never the same! Jesus took the death of Lazarus and created the resurrection!  Jesus just restores life!  Why do you choose to be powerless when you can become powerful?

It is actually a word called 'Grace', God's unmerited favor given to you right now.   

When Daniel was in the Lion's Den it was 'Grace' that kept the lions motionless and quiet...it

was God that gave Daniel complete confidence. God will give you complete confidence. God does not give you the spirit of fear, but of power , love and sound mind.

When the fire danced around the three Hebrew Boys and did not consume them...it was 'Grace'

that provided protection and deliverance.  God will provide for you and deliver you at this very instant.

So my friend...we come to the end of this thought on Grace.  Is there an end or is this just the 

beginning of your victory ...the beginning of your surrendering to a powerful God even in the midst of what some call a recession.  

There is no lack in the Kingdom.  There is no lack in the Kingdom of God..however there is a word called 'Grace'. The Lord is your sheperd...he leadeth you into green pastures.

Jesus is lord and God is in control!

God's Trombone...Listen

God, I know you are there.  God, I know you see me standing beneath these storm clouds. 

God... as I look up I can still see your light breaking through the shadows. I hear the music of love and the melody of grace. 

The more I look towards the light the stronger I become. My fears leave, my doubts are remove, my anxieties about life flee.  Truly, you are the King of Glory!

Even when I thought I would be alone beneath this storm cloud, your magnificence light appears.  Who is like unto you ?

God...you have not given the spirit of fear, but you have given me the spirit of power and love.

God, this spirit of power and love are mine.  I receive them now .  I thought I was alone in this place.  Not so...you are with me.  God, you are always present.  I hear you whisper strength to me now.  Your infinite love is far beyond my comprehension. 

I thought I would be afraid beneath this storm cloud.   God...you do know about the storms of life...I know you do.  How, can you forget about how we have turned away from you.  Your love is so great!  You are always here for us all. 

God, my soul hears the music now...it sounds like you are saying the storm is passing over. ...

Peace be still... Peace be still... Peace be still !

God don't stop playing your trombone , it allows us to walk through the storms of life with our heads held high.  Thank you God, for listening to me even in the shadows of  the storm.

God you are able!

Walking On Water

And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit;and they cried out for fear. But Jesus spoke to them saying, Be of good  cheer; it is I; be not afraid.  

 And Peter answered him and said, Lord if it is you, allow me to come to you on the water.  Jesus said , Come.  Peter got out of the boat and he walked on the water.  A strong wind came upon the water , it was boisterous and Peter became afraid. 

Peter's fear caused him to sink.  Peter cried , Lord save me. How often are we filled with confidence when we place our total faith in God.  We know that we can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens us. 

Confidence elevates to great heights of hope when we trust God. As long as we focus on Christ we are more than conquerors.  It is that moment,... when the wind becomes boisterous that we sink into the slippery abyss of hopelessness and helplessness.   We become overwhelmed by what is happening around us instead of focusing on the power that holds us in provision and deliverance. 

So Peter began to sink...we all sink sometimes and we all have our moments where our faith is challenge when things seem hopeless.  However, the power in all of our sinking, the power in all our difficult life challenges, the power in all of our helpless moments, is  when we sink  into the waters of life because of  circumstances beyond our control...this hand that reached forth for Peter reaches for you.  This strong hand, this anointed hand, this healing hand, this guiding hand, this hand of grace and mercy reaches forth for you.

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him... (caught you)...and said unto him ...(you),... O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? 

Can you walk on water?  What are the storms that surround you?  The hand of God is stretched forth towards you! The miracle is when you extend your hand toward his.

Abundant Life...

Jesus states in the scripture that he came that you and I might have life and have it more abundantly. Have you ever seen in the scripture where Jesus states that he came that you might have life more poorly.

The evil that you see everyday is a lie. It is the work of the enemy of God. It is this darkness that creates the insecurity that can often shake the foundation of our faith. Though we can't see God, he is present. We must remember that God's ways are not our ways. Aren't you glad of this. God's thinking is realms above our understanding.

Though we can't see God, we hear his awesome voice in the midst of a storm, we see his handiwork day after day, the white pillars of clouds silhouette against the blue backdrop, we listen to his music he places in our souls which whispers keep going and do not give up.

You are to have life more abundant. Now, it is the interpretations that you create when it comes to having life more abundantly. If you interpret abundance as the acquisition of material things then you will probably be miserable eventually. You will continue to seek material things and not the spiritual.   It is the  spiritual that is the highest nature of the human being.  

 

Abundant life means a relationship with the creator God that is pure and not tainted by the illusions and traps of the needs of this physical world.  God shall supply all your needs.

Abundant life means that you seek God daily in prayer asking for his guidance and directions.

Abundant life means that you are not a lukewarm christian or a cold christian.  It means that your relationship with God is a top priority above all else. .. it comes to that.  

So, on that day...when the cruelty of humanity drove the spikes through Jesus's body did you feel it?  Did you weep?  He came that you might have an abundant life...now you must interpret what that means.  To cast lots for his garment is the material world...to look up at him and feel love towards him is spiritual.  If you are reading this now...know he loves you!

Boxing With God....

We must quiet our spirits and turn from the distractions of the world. Listen to God...Be Still.

Many people have chosen to become 'gods'. It must be a moment of spiritual amnesia. The poet Langston Hughes penned these words in a poem, "your arms are too short to box with God.

It is evident that men and women need the creator by the observance of the devastating decline in the world we live in. Yet, the universe is at our fingertips and the journey of infinity begins when we look up. How far can we see? Not far. To see beyond the tapestry of hurt, suffering and pain means we must take off our boxing gloves and surrender to the Lord of Lords, Kings of Kings.

The Psalmist, ask the question...who is this King of Glory? Christ came to free us. This is true.

Take off your boxing gloves and surrender your spirit to the will of God my friend. When you surrender, the people who lived on this planet surrender, the leaders of the world surrender and the church leaders surrender to the will of God... we will have a better world. We are only a small speck of dust in the universe. It's God grace that keeps us. Who do we think we really are?
