“For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.” —Philippians 4:13 (NLT)

“Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me.” —2 Corinthians 12:9 (NLT)

“But those who trust in the Lord for help will find their strength renewed. They will rise on wings like eagles; they will run and not get weary; they will walk and not grow weak.” —Isaiah 40:31 (GNT)

"YES, GOD CAN STILL USE YOU!"

Ephesians 2:10, “For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above – spiritually transformed, renewed, READY TO BE USED] for good words, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].” (AMP) When David first arrived at…

Jesus is Coming

Some years ago I was walking around the reception tables after a wedding I had performed. An older woman approached me with a question. Almost everyone present at this particular wedding had come from a high church liturgical tradition. In their tradition, they had sometimes weekly, sometimes monthly recited either the Apostle’s Creed or the Athanasian Creed. But apparently, she hadn’t been…

A Spiritual Treasury For The Children of God

by William Mason

Morning Devotional - January 9th

Thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name. - Isaiah 62:2

This is predicted of the church of God; which, according to covenant-transactions of the glorious Trinity, stands in the nearest and dearest relation to JESUS her head. She is here spoken of as a single person, THOU: she is called "Christ’s body,"- Colossians 1:24, and "the bride, the Lamb’s wife,"- Revelation 21:9, of whom, saith God the Father, "I have loved thee with an everlasting love,"- Jeremiah 31:3. Yea, saith the Son of God to his Father, of all his beloved members, "Thou hast loved them as thou hast loved me. . . .and thou lovest me before the foundation of the world,"- John 17:23-24. O most comforting truths of God’s word! how ancient is the love of God to his church! That God should love us miserable sinners at all is amazing; but that he should love us with the very same everlasting unchangeable love, wherewith he loves his own beloved Son, this surpasseth all knowledge! This love is the source of all blessings in time; this love secures all happiness in eternity.

The Son of God has manifested his infinite love to his church, by conflicting with and overcoming all the powers of earth and hell for her sake. He most clearly purchased her, in a way of strict justice, with his most precious blood. But he finds every one of his ransomed ones branded with this old name of infamy, a SINNER: it being near six thousand years since first entailed. By nature we are all old in sin, and dead in sin: but being predestinated unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ, and to be conformed to his image, to the praise of the glory of God’s grace, therefore we shall be called by a new name.

This the Lord, the Spirit, effecteth. Being born of the Spirit, and baptized with the Holy Ghost into the faith of Jesus, the Lord calls us by a new name, which the mouth of the Lord shall name. This is it, Isaiah 62:12, "The holy people. . . .the redeemed of the Lord. . . .thou shalt be called SOUGHT OUT." O the blessedness of being sought out! how precious is HE who sought us out! He sought us in the ruins of the fall. He found us in a most miserable condition; but he calls us by a NEW NAME, which signifies new creatures in our living head, who is the NEW MAN. This he makes us. Then we experience the blessedness of a new state in, and of a new life from JESUS. He is a new and living way to us. By faith we walk with God-live upon Jesus-feel sweet fellowship with him- enjoy comforting communion from him-and have joyful access to the Father through him. Thus the Lord writes "a new name upon his members, which no man knoweth, saving he who receiveth it."- Revelation 2:17.

Thus, as Luther testifies, "a Christian is a new creature in a new world." He is a subject of a new King, whose name is LOVE; and of a new kingdom, wherein dwelleth righteousness. He is possessed of new hopes-new pleasures-new desires and new joys. Yes, and he finds new fears-new sorrows-new conflicts, yea, and new enemies too. Though that old serpent the Devil and Satan, who deceiveth the whole world, is cast out of us, he still wageth war against us. What then? every trial we meet with, every temptation we are beset with, shall only glorify the riches of God’s love to us, and the power of the grace of Jesus in us- shall learn us the use of our spiritual weapons-deaden our affections to earth-quicken our longings for glory-endear Jesus more to our hearts, so as with ardency to cry out, O that I may be found in HIM! how glorious the privileges! how animating the prospect of all such new-named souls! they are interested in all new covenant blessings. New wine of gospel peace and love is put into such new bottles. A new song, "Salvation to the Lamb that was slain," inspires their tongues.

Such are lovingly called, by the word of their Father, and powerfully enabled, by the Spirit of his grace, to serve and glorify him, "not in the oldness of the letter," but in newness of the Spirit, in "righteousness and true holiness before him all the days of their life:" happy new year to such new-named souls! every revolving year on earth brings them nearer their Father’s house, their Saviour’s kingdom in glory. Thus, "if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away, behold all things are become new."- 2 Corinthians 5:17.

My Jesus, my almighty friend.

When I begin thy praise, Where will the growing numbers end!

The numbers of thy grace!

Still has my life new wonders seen Repeated ev’ry year; Behold my days that yet remain, I trust them to thy care.

Thou art my everlasting trust, Thy Person I adore: And since I knew thy graces first, I speak thy glories more.

My feet shall travel all the length Of the celestial road, And march with courage in thy strength, To see my Father God.

When I am fill’d with sore distress For some surprising sin, I’ll plead thy perfect righteousness, And mention none but thine.

How will my lips in glory tell Thy vict’ries, O my King!

My soul redeem’d from sin and hell, Shall thy salvation sing.

In Awe Of God

It is a good day when you decide to develop your AWE of God. I promise you will never regret it. God bless ya. KimberlyMac

Amazing Awe-GOD Amazing Awe-God! I don’t think I will ever get over how incredibly amazing God is. He is a spectacular Advocate for us. He does intervene majestically in our lives, there is no doubt about that. It is not always very comfortable the way He does things, His methods are definitely not the way we would sometimes choose to do things. God is very unique, but we can trust that He will…

Overcome Evil by The Spirit of The Lord (231) - February 3 2024

Play on other Podcast Apps It is time to go around the mountain once more. We as the Body of Christ must learn to speak to the mountains in the world that need to be removed (Mark 11:23). There are mountains everywhere to be cast into the sea. Mountains of captivity for the souls in Afghanistan. Mountains of sickness and disease in people’s bodies. Mountains of lack. We can use the faith that…

Just because I don't see eye to eye with someone on certain things, doesn't mean that I wish them ill.

You'd literally have to be a criminal & actively hurting people, especially kids, for me to hate you.

And even then, I'll still pray for you to find your way.

After all, "God is not willing that any should perish, but everyone to come to repentance." - 2 Peter 3:9

And "Come now, & let us reason together." - Isaiah 1:18

So, if God is willing to give the chance of repentance to all freely & is willing to reason with us, then what right do I have to deny those individuals that same courtesy?

Ergo, let us reason. Without hate in our hearts.

“When God Gave Me More Than I Could Handle” By Dr Michelle Bengtson:

“People, Christians included, often say that God won’t give you any more than you can handle, but that’s just not true. We’ve gotten it all wrong. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that God won’t give us more than we can handle. It says he won’t let us be tempted beyond what we can bear, and that he will provide a way out of temptation so that we can handle it.

“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it” (1 Corinthians 10:13).

But that’s talking about temptation, not enduring the trials and hardships of life. I would go so far as to say that God absolutely does give us more than we can handle! But He does so for a purpose. To those who so often say to me, “I don’t know how you handle everything you’ve been given,” I don’t. Repeatedly God has brought me to the place where I can’t handle it on my own. I can’t do it without Him.

Life is hard. Life is weighty. Life is overwhelming. We can’t do it alone, without Him. That’s why Jesus comforted us with the promise that,

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

Jesus doesn’t ask us to carry the load by ourselves. Jesus beckons us to find our refuge, our strength, our peace in Him when life is just more than we can handle on our own.

When you feel like giving up, giving in, and letting go, God is holding on to you. When we experience difficulties that are too great for us to handle, they remind us that we must depend on God.

“For I am the LORD your God, who upholds your right hand, Who says to you, ‘Do not fear, I will help you’” (Isaiah 41:13).

“The LORD also will be a stronghold for the oppressed, A stronghold in times of trouble” (Psalm 9:9).

When you’re weak, God wants to be strong for you. He wants to be the rock that you lean on, the strong tower that you run to. The times that overwhelm us show us that God is our source of strength.

“The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him” (Psalm 28:7).

“But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their strength in time of trouble” (Psalm 37:39-40).

The times that overwhelm us show us that God is our source of strength. When you feel weak, lost, and scared, not even sure where your next breath will come from, take God’s hand and know that He’s going to help you through it, one moment at a time. The times that are too difficult to handle on our own teach us to trust God even when we cannot see.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight” (Proverbs 3:5-6).

“Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock” (Isaiah 26:4).

When all you can do is cry, God is a safe place to do that because He promises to dry your eyes. When we are faced with difficulties that are more than we can handle on our own, we have an opportunity to experience God as our refuge.

“God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble” (Psalm 46:1).

“As for God, his way is perfect: The LORD’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him” (Psalm 18:30).

We will go through the hard times but never alone or without His helpful, guiding hand. So, does God give us more than we can handle on our own? Yes. But He makes us a promise that is worth holding onto:

“When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you” (Isaiah 43:2).

We will go through the hard times, the fiery times, the overwhelming times, but never alone, and never without His helpful, guiding hand.

The question is, will you trust Him with those heavy, overwhelming burdens that are more than you can handle?

Because of Him, #HopePrevails!”

Church notes - 31st December 2023

31st Proverbs 16:9

Matthew 2:1 -12 A reflection The Magi were looking out for the the things of God. They could not be dissuaded from their task.

Every day Look through the lense of faith expecting God to be at work. Be prepared to see Him work in unexpected ways. We should be living our lives as if Jesus is King.

vs 2 They followed the star because a King had been born.

Isaiah 9:6, 7 Zechariah 9:9 Revelation 17:14 There is no greater power. He has complete and unchallengeable control!

DAWN: AN ADVENT ALLEGORY

Merry Christmas! We hope you enjoy this Two Books Christmas Meditation on the link between The Rising Sun and The Risen Son. May the glory of Christ's incarnation be your joy, hope, peace and love as you celebrate our risen Savior's birth!

A Two Books Christmas Meditation on The Rising Sun and The Risen Son While I am far from a morning person, as a landscape photographer, I’ve learned to be a student of the dawn – to scout for just the right spot in relation to the sun’s rising, to study the clouds to predict what type of sunrise we might (or might not) enjoy, and to search for just the right subject in the foreground to interact…

"CONFRONTING THE ENEMY'S TACTICS!"

Psalm 144:1, “Blessed be the Lord, my Rock and my keen and firm Strength, Who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight” (AMPC) The main tactic of the enemy is deception. “Deception” is defined as, “the act of causing someone to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid; to trick; to cheat; to defraud; to be dishonest.” And that’s exactly who the enemy is, a deceiver, liar and the…
