The storms of our life
Prove the strength of our anchor…..

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice is like a wise man
who built his house on the rock.- Matt.7:24

Living for the Lord,serving Him each day,
Best prepares the soul for the stormy way;
Then as trials come,tempting to despair,
We can rest secure,safe within His care.

God bless u my dear friend....

Greetings in jesus name my dear sister


A married lady was expecting a birthday gift from her husband.
For many months she had admired a beautiful diamond ring in a showroom,
and knowing her husband could afford it, she told him that was all she
wanted.
As her birthday approached, this lady awaited signs that her husband
had purchased the diamond ring.
Finally, on the morning of her birthday, her husband called her into his study.
Her husband told her how proud he was to have such a good wife, and told her how much he loved her.
He handed her a beautiful wrapped gift box.
Curious, the wife opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible,
with the wife's name embossed in gold.
Angrily, she raised her voice to her husband and said, 'With all your
money you give me a Bible?' And stormed out of the house, leaving her
husband.
Many years passed and the lady was very successful in business. She
managed to settle for a more beautiful house and a wonderful family,
but realized her ex-husband was very old, and thought perhaps she
should go to visit him. She had not seen him for many years.
But before she could make arrangements, she received a telegram
telling her that her ex-husband had passed away, and willed
all of his possessions to her. She needed to come back immediately
and take care of things.
When she arrived at her ex-husband's house, sudden sadness and
regret filled her heart. She began to search through her ex-husband's
important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as she had left it
years before.
With tears, she opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. Her
ex-husband had carefully underlined a verse, Matt 7:11,
'And if you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more shall your Heavenly Father, who is in heaven,
give what is good to those who ask Him?'
As she read those words, a tiny package dropped from the back of
the Bible. It had a diamond ring, with her name engraved on it --
the same diamond ring which she saw at the showroom.
On the tag was the date of her birth, and the words.'LUV U ALWAYS'.
How many times do we miss God's blessings, because they are not
packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this.
Do not spoil what you have, by desiring what you have not; but remember
that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.
IF YOUR GIFT IS NOT PACKAGED THE WAY YOU WANT IT,
IT'S BECAUSE IT IS BETTER PACKAGED THE WAY IT IS.
ALWAYS APPRECIATE LITTLE THINGS;
THEY USUALLY LEAD YOU TO BIGGER & BETTER THINGS.

'The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched.
They must be felt with the heart.'


HAVE A GREAT DAY

god bless

HEALTH CARE FOR THE HEART...


'Keep your heart with all diligence,
for out of it spring the issues of life..'
Proverbs 4:23

Today's Scripture reading emphasizes the importance of caring for our heart.

Are we keeping spiritually fit?
WEIGHT: Do we need to lose the weight of unnecessary burdens and cares?
PULSE: Are we maintaining a steady rhythm of gratitude and praise?
BLOOD PRESSURE: Is our trust greater than our anxiety?
DIET: Are we enjoying the life-giving nutrients of the Word of God?
Have you checked your heart lately?

To keep spiritually fit,Consult with the Great Physician...

O Lord, You see what's in the heart...
There's nothing hid from You;
So help us live the kind of life..
that's filled with love for You...Amen...

Hi Sharon, info as promised...

Fasting—our cutting edge—is most often done in secret and coupled with prayer. More than just abstaining from food, it is an act of self-denial for higher purposes. It is important to check your motives and heart attitudes with the Lord before you determine to pray with fasting. (Matthew 6:16-18)

Notice that Jesus did not say 'if' you fast, but 'when' you fast, so He expected Christians to use that discipline in their prayer lives. What is FASTING? It is the voluntarily and deliberately abstinence from food for the purpose of concentrated prayer. Jesus dealt with our motives for fasting and said we should never fast to impress others.

Being full of the Holy Spirit does not necessarily mean you walk in the power of the Spirit. One way into power is fasting and prayer (Luke 4:1,2,14), which makes you much more spiritually sensitive to the Word of God and hearing His voice. This sensitivity causes more power in your life to combat the forces of Satan.

When the bridegroom is taken away the disciples fast (Matthew 9:14,15); it is a spiritual discipline (2 Corinthians 6:5). Fasting is a means of gaining direction from the Holy Spirit to gain clarity of mind and spirit. (Acts 13:1-3).

There is probably more accomplished in fasting that we will know before we get to heaven. (Isaiah 58:6; Joel 1:14).

Why pray with FASTING?
- Jesus set an example by spending 40 days fasting in the desert (Matthew 4:2; Luke 4:2).
- As a freewill offering to the Father, it pleases Him (1 Samuel 7:5,6; Acts 14:23).
- It produces a spiritual & physical discipline (Luke 2:36,37; 1 Corinthians 9:26,27).
- It keeps you from God's judgements (Joel 2:12-14; Johah 3:5-8).
- It manifests concern for family, church, community and country
(2 Samuel 1:12; 12:16; Ezra 8:21; Esther 4:3,16; Daniel 9:3; Matthew 9:15,
Mark 2:18-20; Luke 5:33-35).

There are benefits from FASTING:
- Strengthens and implements prayer (Acts 10:30,31).
- Brings blessings of obedience (Matthew 6:6,16).
- Brings humility through repentance (Nehemiah 9:1-3).
- Gives revelation of God's way and will for your future (Daniel 9).
- Establishes authority and power in prayer and spiritual warfare (Matthew 4:1-11).

Fasting brings great victories. Example: King Jehoshophat called a national fast against invading armies, and the enemies killed each other (2 Chronicles 20:1-30).

Fasting gives you a proper mental attitude: You should not view fasting as punishment, even though your body may rebel at first.

FASTING SHOULD BE VIEWED AS A PRECIOUS OPPORTUNITY TO GET CLOSER TO THE LORD, not distracted by the daily focus of eating. God responds to your sincerity when you willingly humble yourself.

WAYS TO FAST

Twenty-four hour fast. From sunset to sunset. Abstain from solids.

Partial fast - Abstain from pleasant foods. Partake only of clear soups, fruit juices, cereals or grains, OR, give up one meal a day for prayer. (See Daniel 1:8-16 and 10:2,3).

Three day fast – Total abstinence of food for three days (See example in Esther 4:16).

Extended fast – Has two methods; both require preparation. Before an extended fast, it is recommended you omit caffeine and rich foods from your diet.

Total fast – excludes all food but does include water. Fast should be broken slowly. Only diluted juices for a day or two. Next gradually proceed to fruits, vegetables, and grains, adding meats last.

Non-total fast – no food intake, but diluted fruit juices, water and hot herbal teas are taken.

IF YOU ARE ON MEDICATION, CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE COMMENCING AN EXTENDED FAST. You may need to consider a partial fast only. Fast when directed by the Holy Spirit and according to your disciplined prayer life (Isaiah 58:6; 1 Corinthians 9:26,27).

Use your fast as an opportunity to pray more. During this time your spirit is much more sensitive to the Holy Spirit, and you often will receive keener revelation from God’s Word. Fasting is not an endurance test nor a religious ritual. It is privilege and blessing to approach the Lord in humility and whole-hearted faith.

You should see a fast as a means by which your prayers may be more perfectly focused. Fast with a definite goal, thus breaking the bondage and opposition of Satan. Concentrate on Jesus in prayer when you fast, making time in your schedule for Him.

This info came from my Mom...hope it helps you.

Love in Christ, Carla

Cyrone,
Bless you my dear sister. I pray that the Lord will give you all the encouragement & daily signs of His Presence & love for you! When you find yourself starting to worry or despair, stop the train of thought & say, "No! That's a lie! My God says, "He will meet all my needs, according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus!" My husband & I are currently living without any income, whatsoever! Sometimes God takes us into a 'wilderness', to teach us to rely on Him more. It's just a season. He is in control & loves you very much.

Cyrone Honey, I feel your pain! It's hard when you are closed in with difficult circumstances & have to let go of security & walk by faith! I like what you said about being in the storm with God. Seek that still place, in the eye of the storm, that place where it's just you & God. Feed on His Word & take every negative thought, worry & fear and lay it before Him! "He is faithful, who will not alow you to be tempted about that which you are able to bear, but will with the temptation, make a way of escape, that you may be able to bear it."1 Cor. 10:13

FROM THE FULLNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL
RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER.
( JOHN 1:16 *NIV )

Always remember to count our blessings each day, and to
thank God for them! For no matter what we have, when we
look around us, we find others who have less! So never feel
sorry for ourself, instead start counting our blessings, for that
should cheer u up indeed.

Now we know that when things disappoint us, we are sad and
often depressed. However it is written that we should: BE
JOYFUL ALWAYS; PRAY CONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN
ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU
IN JESUS CHRIST. ( 1 THESSALONIANS 5:16-18 )

Therefore, never feel that God doesn't hear our prayers
because a prayer isn't answered the way we want, or something
goes wrong in our life. For our Heavenly Father always knows
what is best for us, and: HE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU NOR
FORSAKE YOU. ( DEUTERONOMY 31:6 )

So my friend, remember to always: GIVE THANKS TO THE
LORD, CALL ON HIS NAME; MAKE KNOWN AMONG THE
NATIONS WHAT HE HAS DONE for you!
( 1 CHRONICLES 16:8 )

In closing, MAY THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS
CHRIST, AND THE LOVE OF GOD, AND THE
FELLOWSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU ALL,
now and always! Amen! ( 2 CORINTHIANS 13:14 )

Value Life...........

Long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.
Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.
Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health , time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back , we will realize that we don't really need that much , but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition.



______________________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _____


Life is definitely

not about work!
Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life.. Life is a balance of Work and Play, Family and Personal time.
You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence. So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile , Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy Life!

Watch your thoughts ; they become words.

Watch your words ; they become actions.

Watch your actions ; they become habits..

Watch your habits; they become character .

Watch your character; it becomes your destiny

So enjoy every day as yours.........
