Love you all, praying for you.
Praise God - Sometimes He just lays it out there. What you Get, and Who He is! God showing me recently... (Praise God – Praying that you are in PRISM – those 5 things you can do each day in God’s Word. The more you do, the more you get. His WORD is life! It’s where abundance comes from – everything you need is found in His Presence, and given through His Word by the Holy Spirit.) I’m so thankful for the Word of God. Some books have systematic detailed instruction on how to live, how to think, and what to do, whether in relation to God or others. His Word covers every area of your life – with truth that leads to permanent success in every way. But I also love those mic-drop verses that just pretty much cover it. Two of my favorites just lay it out there. What you get, and who He is. Those who have placed their trust in Jesus Christ – and give their life completely to him - Get stuff! You’re not following Him for nothing. And for those who commit their life to him, He is something to them. I Corinthians 1:3 – Grace and Peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Wow! That pretty much sums it up. What if you had Grace and Peace? Grace: Power you didn’t have and favor you didn’t deserve. Power to say no to sin (anything that would displease or disappoint God), and power to accomplish everything you were created for and ordained to do – before the foundation of the world. And what if you had Peace – the complete rest and well being of mind, body, soul, and spirit? That about covers it. That’s what God has for you. Just stay in it. Isaiah 26:3 – you will keep him in complete peace whose mind is stayed (fixed) on you. But God also warns us, Jonah 2:8 – Those who observe lying vanities forfeit the grace that could be theirs. In other words, those who trust in, look to, seek after and pursue false things – lying vanities, those empty, vain things which are transitory and unsatisfactory – those things like money, fame, power, or pleasure – the things which never last, and never satisfy... forfeit the Grace – the power and favor that could be theirs. If your life is given to Jesus, who is the Word of God - you get stuff! But He also is stuff to you. Psalm 115:11 – You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD, He is their help and shield. Another version says Trust in the LORD, you who worship Him, He helps you and protects you. He is your help and shield. Not only does He give power you don’t have, and favor you don’t deserve, not only does He give you complete rest, prosperity and well being in every area of your life – but He’s your help and your shield. He helps you accomplish what you could never accomplish on your own, by your own ingenuity or strength, or effort - and He is your shield. He protects you from evil, from everything that would harm you. So what if you had Grace and Peace, what if He was your Help and your Shield? You have it! He gives it. And He is it! Praying that will always do PiVAT before dinner – so you walk in His plans for you – of grace, peace, help, and protection. Praying that PRISM throughout the day – is your priority over everything else. Time in His Word - will put your trust in Him! And Praying that you will be faithful with your Daily Call – God’s specific command for you in Hebrews 3:13 walking with one other, giving your testimony that helps you to overcome! Praise God He has Grace and Peace for you today! and He most definitely is your Help and your Shield! Love you all, dad
