God is calling us all to repentance. Will you heed his call today?
“Come now, let us reason together says the Lord, though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, and though they are red like crimson they shall be as wool. If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land, but, if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword.” My brothers and sisters in Christ, our God of second chances is willing to wash away from us every stain of sin, he is giving us yet another chance to be renewed, he is willing to create in us new hearts and to renew right spirits within us, all he asks is that we repent and turn to him and we shall be saved.
Cursed is the man who puts his trust in man, but blessed is the man who trusts and hopes in the Lord.
Scripture reminds us that if we put our trust in man he will fail us, we will not be able to see the goodness of the Lord, and our hearts will depart from him, but if we trust in God, he will not fail us; we shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spread out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes, but whose leaves shall be green and who will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit, for the those who hope and trust in the Lord, will abound in good things. Praise the Lord!
For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly father will also forgive you. Matthew 6:14
Dear Lord, instill in us forgiving spirits so that we could be forgiving one to another. Because of the wrongful acts being committed towards us, we harbor anger, resentment, we render evil for evil, we look for ways to avenge ourselves, and above all we find it so hard to forgive. Help us, dear Lord, to be mindful of the many times that we have been unlovely, that we have been unkind, that we have been unfaithful, that we have been hurtful and have grieved your holy spirit, yet, you in your mercy hear our prayers of repentance and forgives us. Let us keep this in the forefront of our minds, that if we fail to forgive men their trespasses, that, you our heavenly father will neither forgive us our trespasses.
“Whatever you ask in my name and believe, you shall receive.”
Lord, I am believing you for great things, I am trusting you for those things that I need but don’t think I deserve, those things that I have asked for in ignorance, but you know my needs before I ask, and because I ask these things in your precious name, I will open my hands, confident, that you will fill them with good things. Thank you Lord!
Thank you dear Lord, for giving me reasons to believe, to hope and to trust in you.
Dear Lord, I have reasons to believe, to hope and to trust in you, because you have never failed me yet, and I know that you are the same God yesterday, today, and forever, your goodness faileth never, you do not change with changing years, and your promises are true. Oh, to God be the glory great things he has done!
Be content with what you have.
Many of us are like David, God has blessed us so much, yet, we find time to envy those who have much less, we try to destroy them; but know that just as the Lord judged David, so too will he judge us, for as he said to David, I have given you so much and I also would have given you much more, but you despised my commandment to do evil. God caused adversity in David’s own house. My brothers and sisters in Christ, do good and resist evil, be content with the Lord’s blessings, lest he bring adversity in your own house. When you see others are being blessed around you, rejoice with them, for if you are faithful to God, his blessings will surround you like a shield, and whom God has blessed no man could curse. Praise the Lord!
How great is our God!
There is no God like our Jehovah! He has done and continue to do so many wonderful things for us, believers and unbelievers, so that we will declare his wonders. How great is our God! Come, let us proclaim him! Let us give him all the praise and all the glory, for our God is a good God and there is no God like our God! Begin today with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.
The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Matthew 3:37
I am so thankful that I am daily laboring for the Lord. Will you labor for the Lord today?
Lord, you see the need for more workers in your vineyard, there is much work to be done; many have willing minds but feeble knees, believing hearts but wavering faith, courage but no hope and the will but no way, and I know that where there is a will that you will make a way, that you will strengthen feeble knees, and increase our faith and hope in you, our good shepherd. All this we ask in your mighty name, amen.
