Clap, Clap, Clap Your Hands Together!




"So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.  Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off." - Isaiah 55:11-13

Dear Friends,
As I was driving through the city today I was in awe as I studied the majestic beauty of the trees lining the streets.  As I stopped at each red light there appeared to be a tree whispering: "Look at me Stephanie I am having a great day."  Wow, if trees could talk!  It was then that the  Holy Spirit brought the verse in Isaiah 55:12 to mind: 

"For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace, the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."

Now talk about a visual.  I looked at the trees and it seemed as though there was some "sure enough" clapping going on.  
The point is Christian Friends, all of nature obeys the voice of God.  The contrary beings are "us humans".  Well, the clapping trees caused me great joy today.  I felt more at peace than I have in a number of weeks. 

 I did not witness any physical mountains singing but I felt some spiritual mountains getting their praise on as I put them on notice. They could come down willingly  or by faith I was going  into "mountain moving mode."  

If you apply faith to your mountains I declare they will get in line with God's program.  How do I know?  God's word does not go out void!

There is no mountain that will be allowed to stand in the way of God's will for your life.  Well,  I praise God for the faithfulness of the hand waving, hand clapping trees. I looked to the hills and in the trees God sent me help to go on a little further...one day at a time.  

Go on clap your hands! Praise the Lord!  Now don't you feel better? 

in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie

Adds Up…

  2 Peter 1:5   “And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;” One of my hobbies is making yarn wreaths.  The wreath frame symbolizing an unbroken circle and an eternal hope. As I tie each double strand of yarn I consider the blessings  of the “tysthatbind”  Adds up… Love+ Faith+ Hope+ Mercy+ Grace+ Peace= Diligently,  Continually  Seeking  to  Add to my faith virtue,  And to virtue knowledge Adds up… God bless.♥️  In Christ, Sis.

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...
