The LORD my God goes with me!


Deuteronomy 31: 6 NIV
“Be strong and courageous, Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Lord, my mouth is filled with your praise, and with your glory all the day. Lord, I will hope continually and will praise you yet more and more. As for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Lord God my refuge, that I will tell of all your works.

As I focus my thoughts on the LORD, I know that God is walking with me today. Psalm 27 verse 13 says "I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living." Thank YOU, LORD, for this verse. I believe that You are taking me forward. I just don't always know the process but I am walking this road with YOU, step by step, little by little. Psalms 27 verse 14 reminds me "Wait for the LORD, be strong, and let your heart take courage wait for the Lord!" You are awesome my King and my God.

Today I want to remind you of Psalm 37 verses 18 and 19 "The LORD knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will remain forever; they are not put to shame in evil times; in the days of famine they have abundance." 

I realize that the LORD is watching over me and that whatever I do He sees. I will not be concerned because I realize God is with me and is watching over me. He is walking with me each and every step of the way.

Prayer
Abba Father, please LORD, restore to me the joy of your salvation and uphold me with a willing spirit. Please Father God, be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of your wings, I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by.
Lord in the name of Jesus Christ I believe You are my God in his steadfast love will meet me, God will let me look in triumph on my enemies. Thank You, LORD, 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 ...
