God's Guarantee!!!

Everyone wants to know what their future is going to be like. Some of us want to know if we will succeed or fail, will get married, have kids, will we grow old or die young, will our business trip be successful or not. So many questions, what are the answers? Our desire to know our future is all too human. This desire to know the future is propelled by our anxiety about life. Some of us face circumstances that are almost nightmarish. We wish that it would stop or go away. It drives us with such a force that some may go as far as to consult with mediums to know what their future holds. One man told me that he even wanted to know if he would go to heaven. He asked the crystal ball if he would go to heaven. He was told 'do not count on it.' Well I have good news that you can count on, that is, the promises that God has made to us through His word, these promises the bible says are "Yea and Amen" in Christ His son. You can trust God's word. The bible says that God is not a man that He should lie, neither is He the son of man that He should change His mind. He is God. He will keep His word, so why not believe it and see great things happen in your life. Here are some promises for you:
"For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, to give you a hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11).
"Fear though not for I am with thee do not be dismayed for I am thy God, I will strengthen thee, I will help thee, I will thee with my righteous right hand (Isaiah 41:10).
"With long life He will satisfy you" (Psalms 91:16).
"In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy paths" (Jeremiah 33:3).
Hold on to His promises, believe in them. They will be a sure guide for you!

Count Your Blessings!!

Count your many blessings see what God has done! As the year closes we may be tempted to think of the negative things that might have taken place in our lives. Let me encourage you that before you go off on a negative rant, think of all the good things that has happened to you in spite of. Take on a new attitude, call it an "in spite of -I am grateful attitude." I am Blessed! Whatever it maybe, you have made it to the end of 2011 and now ready for 2012. You have more mountains to climb and more valleys to walk through. You are not getting weaker but in Christ growing stronger. You are not just going to be a conqueror, you are, according to God's word, "more than a conqueror." The fact that you are alive makes you a candidate for God's blessing. So today "count your blessings" and as the song says, "name them one by one and it will surprise you what the Lord has done." You are blessed, so be a blessing to someone. Have a Happy and Bl...

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...

There's An Angel Watching Over You!

One day my family and I had set out on a journey to visit a relative in the country area. The roads were steep and precipitous and this was the first time we were driving this truck because we borrowed it from a friend. We were going around the winding roads, then suddenly the truck spun around and somersaulted and turned toward a precipice, everything was out of control. The only one that could help was God himself. Immediately instinct came in and I shouted "Jesus". The truck stopped. What happened next was only short of a miracle. A peace filled the truck at that moment before stopping. There was no fear. When we stopped human nature took over, my knees were buckling when I looked down and saw what I was facing. The front of the truck stopped at the edge of the precipice. There was only a bit of dirt between our tires and the edge of the precipice. Death might of been certain, but it was not time for us. His angels were surely there, my cry to Him for help was heard. He wi...
