Surrender to God - If I Do That, What Am I Giving Up?

If we surrender to God, what are we giving up? Does it mean, as it does for the enemy in battle, to give up on victory in our lives? Is God holding a gun to our heads and forcing us to give Him everything we have, like a bandit or mugger might do? To be sure, there are those who are willing to portray God in that way, especially where self-gain is involved. But when we come to know the true character and nature of God, we quickly discover how false that image is.

Surrender means to…

Faith, Full of Faith, and the Faithful.

What makes having faith such a challenge? I fear that sometimes it is the ‘faithful’. I was painfully reminded of this again today.

I AM GOD

Sooner or later, everyone will be beat up, battered, bruised, and burned out by the dailies of life. Good news! God is Lord of all of your life. List every need and emotion that you are feeling, no matter how small they seem. After you have acknowledged all your emotions and needs, go through the names of God until you find the expression of His character that meets each need. For every need, there is a corresponding attribute of God. Affirm that God is still God, no matter how you feel. Have a… Continue

PSALM 125 DEVOTIONAL-SECURITY IN THE LORD

PSALM 125 DEVOTIONAL-SECURITY IN THE LORD

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about His people from henceforth even for ever.

This is the verse that really spoke to me in this Psalm. What protection, what security we have in knowing that our God is like a mighty mountain range all around us! How small and weak we are in His hand yet we are big and strong because of that hand that holds us and protects us. There is no better security in all the… Continue

PSALM 124 DEVOTIONAL-NOTHING TOO BIG FOR GOD

Does anyone besides myself remember that old show “The Friendly Giant?” Oh what am I talking about, of course you do, it was only a couple of years ago when I was 19! (ha-ha) For those of you who don’t it was about a very pleasant and soft spoken giant who looked out over the valley from his kingdom. He would reach down into a house and move the furniture around to make it nice and cozy around the fireplace, then he would place the people in nice safe places around the fire. The Friendly Giant… Continue

The Rock of our salvation

Many doctrines espoused by the so called church, are clearly not supported by a plain reading of the Bible but are instead, propped up by false interpretations of God’s Word. Without exception, such false interpretations have been put in place to propagate a hidden theological agenda.

This practice of the deceitful handling of the Word of God, is accepted by believers, who embrace such things because they are put forth by religious organizations who make a false…

Freedom from Bondage is Your Choice

Many Christians wait on the Lord to drop the answer to their prayers out of the sky, and when it doesn't happen, they say God has forgotten them. But that is not the case. For the truth about God's love for us, we have to look at our choices.

God gave us free will. It is our choice to follow God's commandments, and when we do, we prosper and live under God's protection. Proverbs 10:22 tells us that, The blessings of the Lord makes one rich, and He adds no sorrow with it. On the… Continue

GOD'S CHOICE OF FRUIT BEARERS

GOD’S CHOICE OF FRUIT BEARERS

Jesus said, “You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and

ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit and that your

fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in My

Name, He may give it to you.”

John 15: 16

Beloved, look at this for a choice! Look again at the verse of Scripture:

you have been chosen and…
