Take time to Listen

“Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care. Today, if only you would hear his voice,” Psalm 95:6-7

How long does it take to hear the voice of the Lord? Only a second. He speaks so clearly when we take time to listen. Today, I will hear you voice, O Lord.

The Bible is a treasure

I rejoice in your word like one who discovers a great treasure.Psalm 119:162

The daily discoveries in Scripture are words of life to me. Read the Bible as if your life depends on it. There are rich treasures to help you walk today in victory.

A Thankful Heart

I will thank you, Lord, among all the people. I will sing your praises among the nations. For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens. May your glory shine over all the earth.

We are called to live in peace

And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful. (Colossians 3:15 NLT)

Peace comes from Christ. We are told to let peace rule, not strive for, work toward, just let it rule. Sometimes we make it seem harder than it is. God made a way for us to live at peace in every situation. Let peace rule.

God never changes!

"You are my King and my God. You command victories for Israel. Only by your power can we push back our enemies; only in your name can we trample our foes. I do not trust in my bow; I do not count on my sword to save me. You are the one who gives us victory over our enemies; you disgrace those who hate us. O God, we give glory to you all day long and constantly praise your name.

God is the same, He never changes, yesterday, today and forever. He is the One who gives victory!

God Chose Us

"All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding." Eph.1:3-8

We can trust everything He does!

Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy. For the word of the Lord holds true, and we can trust everything he does.He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth. Psalm 33:3-5

South African Children

"We put our hope in the Lord. He is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord, for our hope is in you alone."
These children inspire me, they have such simple faith in God. In the midst of poverty and crime, they rejoice and delight in Jesus. Our hope is in Him alone. Lord, help us to walk in that truth.
