Be Still

I loved to hear the song that was played at the beginning of the early morning devotional program on the radio. It was a pleasure and I looked forward to hearing it. "Be still my soul, the lord is on thy side." God was on my side. It gave me the assurance, comfort and confidence for the day. The Lord is on my side. The Lord Jehovah himself, strong and mighty, loving and kind is on our side.

Today you can have this same joy that I feel when I hear these words.
Be still. The Lord is on thy side.

Be Still my Soul by Katharina Schlegel (Verse 2)

Be still my soul; your God will undertake
To guide your future as in ages past
Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake
all now mysterious shall be bright at last
Be still my soul the waves and wind still blow
The Christ who ruled them while he dwelt below

From Minimum to Maximum

The secret to a blessed life in Christ is in the power of prayer. Any time we operate from a focus of prayer and the word, God comes through for us. If we are tired and weary he will be there for us. No amount of human effort can replace the ability of Gods Holy Spirit to strengthen, guide and take care of the negative circumstances in our lives. The desire to operate on minimum strength is tempting, but we will soon learn that we can live up to our full potential only in Christ.

Christ realized the necessity of knowing God for himself and seeking God for His anointing. At one time he asked God to glorify Him with the glory he had with Him from the beginning. Though He was God, He took on the l...

Prayer Changes Things

Prayer changes things and we are assured that as we pray God will help us and guide us.  In the book of James He said that Elijah was a man like us. That means that Elijah was subjected to all human frailties like us.  One minute he is on the mountain the next minute he was hiding from a woman.  How many times we have allowed fear and circumstances to get us down even to the point of paralyzing us.  Elijah prayed and God responded to his prayer by stopping and sending rain. Even so God will respond to us as we pray. We don't have to be afraid.  Prayer is talking to God with love. It is not how long you pray, how loud you pray but how earnest you pray. It is all a 'heart thing'. God sees our hearts. Jesus said "go into the closet and pray" and He will answer you openly. Pray for and about everything. I know that God loves and cares for all of His children and He is just waiting for us to call on Him. He says that "we should call on Him and  He will answ...
