Becoming a Saint ....

Psalm 34: 4-5 I sought the LORD, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears.  Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed.

Being in the ‘thick of things’ right now, is never easy the problems I face are normal considering all people go through difficult times.  The trick is to become sure of who you are in Christ.  In Romans 8: 37 Paul writes telling us to become more than conquerors.  It has always been my policy to turn to the Word of God in my hour of need.

Romans 8:33 Amplified Bible (AMP)

³³ Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect [when it is] God Who justifies [that is, Who puts us in right relation to Himself? Who shall come forward and accuse or impeach those whom God has chosen? Will God, Who acquits us?]

People have the tendency to always disappoint us.  God on the other hand is always waiting for us to turn to Him.  I believe that I am the righteousness of God in Christ; this gives me a passport to see God through Christ.  God cleans me through Christ and I can be helped by the Lord my God. 

 

Move towards Jesus Christ day by day, hour by hour and minute by minute.  I pray that the Lord will open my spiritual eyes and ears so that I can hear Him clearly.  I pray the same for you today.

We all need the grace to be more forgivening towards ourselves!!!

I must learn to stop critizing myself.

Problems

My race is more interesting and hardest when I stay focused on my own problems.  It's true running away from problems dont help anybody.  I learned in the meantime to focus on the Lord Jesus Christ.  Thank You Lord, I am the righteousness of God in Christ. 

Ask ....

Matthew 7:7  Living Bible (TLB)

⁷ “Ask, and you will be given what you ask for. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and the door will be opened."

LORD God You know what my asking is, please answer my prayers.  I am seeking Your help and standing at Your door knocking please answer me.  Open my spiritual eyes and ears.  In Jesus Name 

Heal me LORD

Jeremiah 17: 14 Living Bible (TLB)

¹⁴ Lord, you alone can heal me, you alone can save, and my praises are for you alone.

So worthy of His love?

John 1: 16 (Amplified Bible)

¹⁶ For out of His fullness (abundance) we have all received [all had a share and we were all supplied with] one grace after another and spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing and even favour upon favour and gift [heaped] upon gift.

 

Work in progress - I am a work in progress

Lord Jesus I thank You for Your righteousness, You are my advocate and I can never come before the father without You.  I am the righteousness of God in You Lord Jesus Christ. I cannot work for my favour with You Lord Jesus, You died on the cross for me.  I believe in faith that I am the righteousness of God in Chris.  You said it Lord, I believe it.

Amen

Salvation?

Hebrews 1 :14

Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁴ Are not the angels all ministering spirits (servants) sent out in the service [of God for the assistance] of those who are to inherit salvation?

       Are you saved?  Are you a child of the Most High God?  Why Not!?

Integrity ....

Hebrews 1:9 Amplified Bible (AMP)

⁹ You have loved righteousness [You have delighted in integrity, virtue, and uprightness in purpose, thought, and action] and You have hated lawlessness (injustice and iniquity). Therefore God, [even] Your God (^[e] Godhead), has anointed You with the oil of exultant joy and gladness above and beyond Your companions.

When people have integrity you will see it in everything they do.  It will be noticeable in their daily work.  They do things diligently and with enthusiasm.  Even when no one is around the work is done properly and with the best intention.  It is probably one of the most difficult things to teach people who have not been exposed to this kind of discipline and they feel you picking on them when you enforce certain rules.  To my mind being good at what you do is important and to be excellent at what you do is even better.  But you have to be able to work hard without someone watching you and checking up on your progress.  I heard a sermon of Joyce Meyers and it struck me that even in a store you should take care of how you do things.  There is always someone that needs to come and ‘pick up’ after you.  Why?  People don’t care.  They just say ‘ah, it’s not my job, that’s why they employ shop attendance’ and you drop clothes on the floor and walk away, not your problem.  Funny you dropped it why not just pick it up?

I like a beautiful set table, I love it when the plates match, the knives and forks are set correctly, and all the condiments are set out on the table with a beautiful clean table cloth.  I seem to have this huge fight in getting the table set the right way.  Maybe one day the penny will drop, in the mean time I pray the Lord to give me wisdom and understanding.  

I need to live with integrity, virtue and uprightness in purpose, though and most of all action.  Let my intent be true and may I keep my integrity in everything I do.

God bless you, live your life with righteousness and integrity, virtue, and uprightness in purpose may God bless you as you go through your day.

Feet in the water

You may think dreaming of one’s self is silly but I have been having dream after dream about me.  Can you handle.  Well this morning I awoke and realized that I had a dream and I only could recall the fact that I had no shoes on my feet and that I was standing in very clear, crystal clear water.  It was amazing to me.  I don’t really know what it may mean but this is my interpretation.  My feet are my foundation and the water is the cleaning of the Holy Spirit.   

What do you think?
