Tuesday... Just look out at what He is doing.


Tuesday... Just look out at what He is doing, what He has done, and what He will do.

We so many times, even right now, can look around and really be discouraged. So much negative stuff is happening. But we can also look around and see so much good and be encouraged. Yes, life can be tough but we are not alone if we have a relationship with God and even if we don't He is still working all around us.

Psalm 98:1 (MSG) says, "Sing to God a brand-new song." Each day, there is a new song to be sung. "He's made a world of wonders." Oh I know, the Evil one strives to do all he can to destroy the good but he can't. God may allow him to do his stuff but God is still at work, making a world of wonders.

The verse continues, "He rolled up his sleeves, He set things right." He is always working bringing good out of bad. Just look around. Ask Him to open your eyes to see all the wonders that He is doing. I'm looking out the window at the mountains . He did that. I'm looking at trees and the beauty of their blossoms. He did that. I'm drinking my coffee and enjoying my space and friends here at Aspire Coffee House. He did that. So what do you see?

Oh, it is a little chilly out there but the wonders of God are still happening

The Psalmist goes on in verses 2-3a, "God made history with salvation, He showed the world what he could do. He remembers to love us, a bonus." I love that. "He remembers to love us, a bonus."

He does all that He does and He also loves us. And He shows that to us every day. 

And then verses 8-9 (NLT), Let the rivers clap their hands in glee! Let the hills sing out their songs of joy before the Lord, for he is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice, and the nations with fairness." 

Verse 9 in The Message says, "He'll straighten out the whole world, He'll put the world right, and everyone in it." God is working. So let's sing to Him a new song in this new day. Just look around and see His wonders. Yes, yes! #todays beginning

Friday... We have this hope of expectancy.

Psalm 5:3 (NLT), "Listen to my voice in the morning Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly." Friday... We have this hope of expectancy. Now David found a great way to start his day. He says in Psalm 5:1-3 (NLT), "O LORD, hear me as I pray." And that is a great place to start. It really is. Morning sunrise He goes on, "Listen to my cry for help, my King, my God, for I pray to no one but you." And that is so important. We don't try to pump ourselves up by ourself. No, we pray to no one but you, God, my LORD, my King. Now this relationship with God is so, so very important. And then David says, "Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD. Each morning I bring my requests to you" And that is so great. And then he says, "and wait expectantly." Yes, we have this hope of expectancy. We are experienced. That is what a relationship with God and a moment by moment connection does. It makes a difference in our daily wa...

Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true.

Psalm 12:6 (NLT), "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." Friday... Yes, we can know this to be true. Maybe this is what you want to say in this day in which we live. Psalm 12:1-2 (MSG) says, "Quick, I need your helping hand! The last decent person just went down, all the friends I depend on gone. Everyone talks in lie language; lies slide off their oily lips. They doubletalk with forked tongues." Do you ever feel that way?" Have you found that to be true? Well David the writer of this Psalm continues and says in verse 6 something to encourage us, to lift us up, to give us hope. Psalm 12:6 (NLT) says, "The Lord's promises are pure, like silver refined in a furnace, purified seven times over." The Message Paraphrase says verses 6-8 this way, "God's words are pure words, pure silver words refined seven times in the fires of his word-kiln, pure on earth as well as in heaven, God, keep ...

Friday... So what is it that you really fear?

1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT), "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Friday... So what is it that you really fear? Yes, fear holds us back. It seems to take hold of us so that we can't even really enjoy living. Now I have found that one of the best ways to handle fear is to solve the problem of what we fear. Let's say that death is what we really fear. Everyday we wake up afraid to get up because we are afraid to do anything because we are afraid to die. And that is so understandable. Now I have found the solution to fearing death. I have through faith taken care of my fear to die. 1 Corinthians 15:57 (NLT) says, "But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ." Verse 22 (CEV) says, "Adam brought death to all of us, and Christ will bring life to all of us." Death was not God's plan. Adam was created for an eternal life but he and his partner, Eve blew it and sin a...
