JESUS is our obstacle OVER-COMER!

Read John 6: 1-14

Lord Jesus, I love you and thank you for the love, strength, purpose, guidance, direction and hope which You give to me and all who know You as Lord and Savior. You overcame for us! Praise Your name! Amen.

Thanks...

As I was perusing the Psalms for words of thanksgiving, I came across this question.

"What can I render unto the Lord for all His benefits towards me?" Psalm 116:12 KJV
The NIV records it this way. "How can I repay the Lord for all His goodness to me? The BBE reads, "What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?"

The question, no matter how you ask it, has a simple answer. For all that Christ has done for you and me, we need only to receive Jesus as our Savior and praise His name among His people (116:13,14). Choosing Jesus will show our thanksgiving for His never-ending love for us.

In this season of thanksgiving, let Jesus know how thankful you are for Him by loving Him with all your heart, soul and mind (Matthew 22:37). That's what Jesus wants most from us!

Thank you Lord Jesus for loving us to the point that You died for our sins so that we might receive forgiveness of our sins and through a relationship with You, we can know the Father and have victory and claim the promise of eternity with You. Thank you for Your amazing love and sacrifice. Thank you for our hope. In Jesus' name. Amen

Pray or Play

Praying without action is PLAYING. Should we or do we really expect God to do all the work without our involvement? When a prayer is placed before the throne of God expect an opportunity to be placed before you. Be ready ALWAYS to GO into ACTION. We are in this earthly ministry with God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. We are on Heaven's team.

Remember..."I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Phil 4:13

Lord Jesus, Help me to recognize the opportunities of my prayers. Give me the words to speak, the patience to listen, the heart to hear, and the vision to see clearly. Lead me Lord Jesus where you would have me to go to accomplish Your will. In Your name I pray. Amen.

Fighting...

The mouse on my computer is giving me a fight here lately. It seems it has its on mind and direction it wants to go. I move it up and it goes left, I move it down and it says put, I slam it against the pad a few times and it still doesn't want to cooperate. What is a semi-patient man to do? Well there is a solution to this problem; get rid of it.

That's how it is with problems in our lives; sin, self, Satan. When we (believers) want to do the right thing, move in the right direction, click on the Truth, these often fight against us. (And some days are worse than others) Well we don't have to fight these battles! Jesus has already claimed the victory for us! Say NO to sin, surrender self to Jesus, and order Satan to move back to his corner. Stand in Victory with Jesus!

"Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! (Matthew 4:10 NKJV)

Don't fight the mouse, get rid of the problem!

Lord Jesus, help us to know victory today! Help us to stand in victory! In Jesus' name. Amen.
