LORD, O LORD, HAVE MERCY

 

Matthew 24:7

“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.”


Not without warning.

There is nothing that takes God by surprise.

The troubles of the world are documented in His Word. 


This doesn’t mean that the daily news 

of heart wrenching turmoil 

in our communities, 

the country, 

and the world, do not affect us.


There are many days when I am so saddened that tears fill my eyes.

 I shake my head. 

I put my hand over my heart. 

I wonder “What is wrong with people?”


The prayer I pray:


“O Lord I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.”

- Habakkuk 3:2


No matter what, God cares.

He hears the faintest cry.


For God so loved the world that He gave…


The Only Begotten Son of God,

He has all power.


“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. - Matthew 28:18


There are no exceptions. 

Power belongs to God.


Mighty God 

Powerful Lord 

Lord, O Lord, have mercy.


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...

The Journey Here

  Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. - Psalms 23:4 The journey here...that is really something to think about.  Where we are in life as compared to where we had hoped to be.  Paths chosen while other were forgotten or neglected.  Decisions.  Times of indecisiveness. There were times we crawled. Too weary to walk.  We ran. We were too impatient to wait.   The journey.  Here.  That is really something to think about. For me the most difficult and sometimes debilitating aspect of the journey, has been walking through the valley of the shadow of death.  Tempted to fear due to memories of time I could have spent, conversations I should have had, hugs I wish I had given.  This type of fearful fretting is not of God.  I have learned; I am learning that if I truly believe, He is with me.  If I surely stand on His promi...
