Sermon Notes

 “While the earth remains the, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”

         - Genesis 8:22 kjv


The preacher spoke yesterday about “Sacrifice After the Storm”. Genesis 8:13-21 was the text. Todays verse 22 was also referenced.  The preacher spoke about how God prepared Noah for the storm. He advised him that in seven days, it was going to rain for 40 days and 40 nights.  We were admonished to consider Noah and what he may have been subjected to as he labored to build a boat in preparation for rain when people around him did not know rain.  Noah believed God and kept on building.

Noah and those on the boat rode the storm under the watchful protection of Almighty God.  We were told that not only was rain coming down from the sky  waters were also rising up.  From top to bottom the water poured.  When we think about the storms of life, we realize they can be all encompassing. Storms can rage so intensely, we may feel as though we are drowning.

But God made a provision for Noah.  In His time the rains stopped.  After so many days dry land appeared.  The rainbow sign was given. The preacher shed understanding regarding the rainbow.  Short definition, the sun shining through water droplets.  Look at God.

The rainbow sign, signifying that the sun will shine after the storm.  The morning is coming.  God is in control.  The seasons of life continue.  There is balance to the struggle. What do we do when God delivers us.  Do we offer a sacrifice of praise.  In the midst of the challenging weather, choose to worship.

God bless.

In Christ,

My, My, My

  Luke 1:46b “My soul doth magnify the Lord,” My, my, my Such were my thoughts this morning as I looked out of my window at the sunrise. The Lord in His Majestic power has ordered another day. Waking up with the ability to see, to hear, and to speak. Graced with mercy to walk and talk. The Lord continues to bless and to keep. I did not wake up without aches and pains. Carefree and without challenges is not an entry on my schedule. Yet, my soul doth magnify the Lord. The Lord has given me another day to live another opportunity to serve. My, my, my.  God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

Just a Moment

  1 Corinthians 15:52   “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” A moment. Just a minute. Things happen. Situations change. Here one minute and gone the next.  So the saying goes. Moments. They mater. While we have time… Take a second. Press pause. Stop.  Consider. Right now.  This moment. Counts…⏰ God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

I’ll Go With You

  Isaiah 41:10   “Fear thou not; for I  am  with thee: be not dismayed; for I  am  thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.” “Jesus said if you go I’ll go with you.” Butterflies in my stomach  A racing heart  I do not want to attend the meeting  I wish I could cancel the appointment  I don’t want to talk about it Over “it” I don’t think I can do this  BUT GOD He reminds me that of course, I cannot accomplish even the most mundane tasks on my own  He assures me day by day that He is with me  He builds me up He orders my steps  He speaks peace to my soul  He renews my heart  Do not be afraid  You belong to Me I’ve got you I am holding you in My mighty hands  Go! I will go with you. God bless.🌸✨  In Christ, Sis. Stephanie
