Tuesday... Is it true? Is it?


Tuesday... Is it true? Is it?

Psalm 140:12b (NIRV) says, "He stands up for those who are in need." Do you know that to be true? Are you in need right now and do you know that to be true?

The world knows what we are against as Christians. And that is a part of our task, to stand against the wrongs of this world but there is also the benefits of being a Christian and there are so many and this without a doubt is one of them. "He stands up for those who are in need."

Are you in need? "He stands up for those who are in need." Now if you have never been in need then you don't need anyone to stand up for you. But all of us have needs, they're just different needs.

The Amplified Bible says it this way, "I know [with confidence] that the Lord will maintain the cause of the afflicted." Now how do they know that with confidence? Because God has been there in their times of affliction and been what they needed to take them through those times. That is where their confidence came from. 

Have you been afflicted and in need at some point in your life and God was there to take care of you in your time of need and affliction? Listen, He will be there again. You can know that with confidence.

Satan is in the remembering and forgetting business. He wants you to remember the pain and forget the solution, to forget how God brought you through the affliction and took care of your need. That is the only way he can win so just remember what God has done before and remember what His Word says and remember that He is there with you, standing with you in your time of need and be confident in that fact.

Verses 12 & 13 in The MESSAGE says, "I know that you, God. are on the side of victims, that you care for the rights of the poor. And I know that the righteous personally thank you, that good people are secure in your presence." And you can know it too. Just remember, "He stands up for those who are in need."  Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning

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...
