The Word of God Shall Stand!





"While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal."  - II Corinthians 4:18


Dear Friends,

A familiar hymn encourages us to: "Build your hopes on things eternal, hold to God's unchanging hand."   If we focus too hard and too long on only what is front of us we can lose sight of the miracle.  

Consider the bills that come in the mail.  When we focus on the stack of bills instead of the God who provides the provision to pay the bills we can miss the blessing.  

I remember hearing a preacher say years ago: "Stop complaining about all the bills you have to pay and thank God you have the money to pay them." Well his words taught me a lesson. Even during times when I did not have the money I thanked the Lord for what I had trusting that He would make a way.

Things are temporal.  Life as we know it is temporal.  Beauty as we know it is temporal. The Word of God is eternal.

 "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the Lord bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever."  - Isaiah 40:7-8

The Word of God shall stand.

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.
