See and Believe the WORD, not the circumstance

 

lifewordslifewordslifewords 08.26.10 see and believe the Word, not the circumstance Hi it's a great Thursday and Jesus is Lord over all!! He is faithful, ever present and true.He is worthy of all our love, all of our worship today. I prayed for you fervently as the sun came up this morning. Prayer is powerful!  I'm so glad He has given the vehicle of prayer that we can ask, and receive!  You are awesome, because He  has forgiven you, redeemed you, rescued you, transformed you, and lives in you. Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's a great day. All is well because His love is sure, His Word is true and His mercies are new this day.  Thanks for reading "lifewords". I pray they will encourage you, bless you and build you up in Him.   Amy        Today I want to encourage you to fix your eyes on the Word of God. Make God's Word the most important priority of your life. The Word is alive and living and powerful. And as you do, praise Him! Read, meditate, study, speak the Word......and keep praising Him! Jesus said we can't live on bread alone....natural things.  He said we live by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God. His Word will refresh you today.  It will strengthen you today. The Word of His power will build you up today.  Don't be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind to the Word of God!  And if you do this you will know the will of God for your life.  You will have wisdom and understanding. God wants to fellowship with you in His Word this day and every day.  He WILL speak to you!  We know that storms will come.  Trials will come.  You may be in some storms and trials right now as you read this.  You may be like Peter im Matthew 12:29-31, with wind and waves all around you and Jesus is asking you to step out of the boat onto the water and do the impossible. Peter fixed his eyes on Jesus and walked on the water, defying all his natural reasoning.  When he took his eyes off Jesus he began to sink.  So it it with us this day.  We must fix our eyes on the Word (Jesus is the Word), it will anchor us and enable us to walk in victory over trials and overcome the resistance of the enemy.  He is the Author and the Finisher. Make His Word your priority every day.  On purpose.  Delight in it! And meditate in His Word day and night. Day and night. Day and night. Psalm 1 declares that you will be like a tree planted by rivers of water,  your leaf will not wither, you will bear lots of fruit and in all you do you will prosper. And you, my dear friend, will know your God.  Those that do know their God will be strong and do exploits (Daniel 11). Never forget, you are loved by God with an everlasting love today.      Plan to join us beginning Sept 1 as we read through the Gospels, Psalms and Proverbs from Sept.-Dec.
