My Rock and My Fortress



"Be thou my strong habitation, where unto I may continually resort: thou hast given commandment to save me; for thou art my rock and my fortress."
     - Psalms 71:3

 Dear Friends,

 The songwriter penned: "I looked all over, couldn't find nobody, nobody greater, nobody greater, nobody greater than You."

 There is no stronger fortress. There is no safer dwelling place.  No rock as solid as the Lord Our God.  

 I dreamt a few nights ago that I was stuck on an icy hill. I had received help part of the way up but was left in the middle.  I could not move up or down.  I was so frightened in my dream.  However, when I woke up in the middle of the night I was angry.  I was shaking with anger.  Why would someone I trusted leave me alone trapped like that. God revealed that the anger I felt was real due to certain circumstances I had experienced. Someone I trusted left me hanging, more than once. 

  God  pulled the cover (literally) off my anger and revealed to me that I was stuck on a hill! He has another mountain for me to climb but my anger over  mistreatment had me stuck.  

   Wow!  What do you do when God calls you out?   YOU REPENT! Lord forgive me for the my anger.  I cast my care on You.  Help me off this icy hill so I can climb the mountain to my next assignment. You are My Rock and My Fortress.

 "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
 - James 5:16

 Thank you Jesus!

 in Christ,

 Sis. Stephanie

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help. God is my Help.  I lift up my eyes knowing my help comes from the Lord.  All my help.  Every need supplied. He is My Support. He is The Solution. My Benefactor. Ever providing. Always nourishing. Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. 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...
