Let us Journey On



"And he spake unto the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones? Then ye shall let your children know, saying, Israel came over this Jordan on dry land. For the Lord your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you, until ye were passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red sea, which he dried up from before us, until we were gone over:That all the people of the earth might know the hand of the Lord, that it is mighty: that ye might fear the Lord your God for ever." - Joshua 4:21-24

Dear Friends,

 At the Red Sea the Lord parted the waters and the children of Israel crossed as on dry land.  At Jordan River the Lord had Joshua to instruct them to step out first and as a result of their stepping out, He wrought yet another miracle. The waters parted allowing safe passage.  On the way across twelve stones were collected and the the end of the journey over the river the stones were set in a memorial to mark the event.

 God has different ways of delivering. Sometimes He wants us to launch out, take the initial step, exercise our faith and experience the miracle in the midst of "our river."

 However and whenever God speaks deliverance it is always miraculous.  We can trust that as we journey on, He will be with us to part the waters.

The old spiritual tells our us: "Encourage my soul and let us journey on. Though the night is long and we are far from home.  Thanks be to God the morning light appears. The storm is passing over Hallelujah.

 Let us journey on knowing that God still parts waters.  He still speaks to storms and peace and calm abide. When we get to the other side let us not forget to "build our testimony" so that when others ask, "How did you make it over?" All glory will go to God.  Hallelujah!

 in Christ,

 Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...

Believing God

  Philippians 1:6 “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform  it  until the day of Jesus Christ:” Preparing for the next chapter. Cleaning the clutter inside and out.  Reevaluating priorities.  Seeking a revival.  Believing God.  Slowing down a bit.  Focusing on spiritual wellness.  Taking care of my business.  Exercising faith.  Believing God. Stopping to view the sunrise.  Appreciating the sunset.  Planting flowers.  Picking some… Believing God.  Being thankful.  Being kind.  Being… Just being. Believing God.  God bless. In Christ, Sis.
