Seek the Lord


Psalm 34: 10 NIV “The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.”

In order to reap an abundant harvest, it is important to stay in the field the Lord has placed you to reap a bountiful harvest.  You also have to ensure that you are in the will of God.  But what if you have moved away from the shelter of the Lord?  You find that you are on the outskirts of the field and it seems almost impossible to move back into the field.

Fasting and prayer is a possibility and you do this on a regular basis, you are still seeking the Lord your God with all your heart.  I believe that God is a fair and just God and that He will give both you and me a second chance.  All we have to do is call out to Him and He will rescue each one of us.

There was this lady she was a Moabite and her mother-in-law was Naomi, they both returned to Naomi’s hometown.  Ruth the Moabite lady went out to work in the fields collecting barley for the mother-in-law and herself so that they could eat.  Boaz was the owner of the farm and when he saw Ruth he likes her instantly.
She was able to collect as much as she could for both herself and her mother-in-law.  God provide for both Naomi and Ruth and blessed them.

Prayer


O Lord my God, in all humility I stand before You today, I am in need of a miracle and I feel that I cannot move forward without You by my side.  I am seeking You with my heart, soul, and mind today.  I come before You just as I am and it is my desire to draw near to You.  Lord God please help me.  I need a touch in my life from You.  In the name of Jesus Christ amen.

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
