Sometimes We Just Have to Stand Still - Week of November 4, 2018

Psalm 119:10-11 King James Version (KJV)

10 With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy commandments.
11 Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

Dear Friend,
Sometimes we just have to stand still.  Stand still until it is clear which direction the way the Lord want you to move. Standing still is not doing nothing.  It takes faith, it takes gumption to stand still.  Put on the whole armour and stand.  The scripture says, having done "all to stand."  When we are in what seems to be a holding pattern we must keep on serving.  The true test of our faith often comes when we are standing still.  For it is in this posture that we often face the most criticism.  "Look at her, look at him...she used to be..."  Well truth be told there are no use to be's with God.  God is accomplishing His purpose in our lives in spite of what it looks like to others.  "Don't matter what it looks like it only matters what it is." - sdktyus   Sometimes we just have to stand still until His will is clear.  May God bless you as you stand
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...
