That's a Promise - Week of June 2, 2019

Psalm 37:3-5 King James Version (KJV)

Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

Dear Friends,
Just pondering the promises of God.  A promise, according to Merriam Webster is:
  • a declaration that one will do or refrain from doing something specified
  • reason to expect something
  •  ground for expectation of success, improvement, or excellence
The Psalmist tells us to "trust in the Lord and do good"
  • so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. (That's a promise)
We are told to "Delight thyself also in the Lord" 
  • and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. (That's a promise)
We are admonished to: "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him"
  • and he shall bring it to pass. (That's a promise)
Whatever God has declared we can expect.  That's a promise.

Our expectation is sure and our success certain when we trust in God.  That's a promise.

God is the God of Excellence.  Excellent is His Name.  Every Word the Lord has spoken will be fulfilled.  That's a promise.

Peaceful God. Powerful God. Promise.

God bless!
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...
