Philippians 1:28 (be) in no way alarmed by your opponents—which is a sign of destruction for them, but salvation for you, and that too from God. https://godslittlemiraclebook.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post-new.php God doesn’t want us to be frightened of those who are against us as Christians. The fact that they oppose us is a clear indication that if they continue to deny God and work against Him and His people, they will perish and be in ruin. They will experience eternal misery in hell….

Matthew 14:27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them saying, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” Jesus directed His disciples to row across the Sea of Galilee at sundown while He stayed behind to pray. After they had rowed for many hours in contrary winds they were worn ragged. Between three and six in the morning, they saw something coming toward them and were terrified. They thought it was a ghost. Jesus called to them to take courage;…

Psalm 27:1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; whom shall I dread? The Lord is my light, my instruction. He rescues me. He is my place of safety, my victory. The existing One, the God who created the universe, is for me. I have no reason to be in dread of anything. He delivers me. He is my protector, my stronghold, my safe harbor. He takes…

Hebrews 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation? Of the many things I’m grateful for, there is one benefit I often overlook. My attention was drawn to this fact recently when Robert Lee Brewer’s Poem a Day Challenge prompt was “Watchers.” (http://www.writersdigest.com/editor-blogs/poetic-asides) The Watchers They see me when my feet fly out from under me as I bump down the stairs— when I screech on the…

Matthew 9:6 (Jesus said) “But in order that you may know that the son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—then He said to the paralytic—“Rise, take up your bed, and go home.” The religious leaders of the day scoffed at Jesus when he told a paralytic his sins were forgiven. Jesus knew their unspoken evil thoughts against Him. He asked those leaders which was easier to say, “Your sins are forgiven,” or to say, “Get up and…

Psalm 118:6 The Lord is for me; I will not fear; what can man do to me? The enemy, the liar and father of lies (John 8:44), the accuser of the brethren (Revelation 12:10), uses fear as a tool against us. He whispers a lie or a half-truth in our ear and then waits as a patient fisherman for us to seize on that bait. He cranks us closer by adding a few “what if’s” or a couple of “if…

Waiting on God

Waiting on God

Comments 1 comment

Isaiah 40:29 He gives strength to the weary, and to him who lacks might He increases power. A little farther on in this chapter, God gives the key to how to obtain this strength and power from God in verse 31. That verse says we are to wait for the Lord. That waiting is not a finger-drumming, toe-tapping, hurry-up-God, kind of wait. This is a looking for, a hoping in, and expecting God to act on our behalf. There are…

Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Today’s scripture deals with the last two pieces of armor Paul tells us to put on. He says God supplies us a helmet and a sword. When we receive Christ, our thoughts are no longer open season for Satan. We no longer have to follow his suggestions and listen to and obey his bidding. God changes our thought patterns. We…

When In Suffering and Grief

When In Suffering and Grief

Lamentations 3:32 For if He causes grief, then He will have compassion according to His abundant lovingkindness. It is such a comfort to know when we are afflicted, when we undergo suffering, or when we grieve, the God of All Mercy is there. He has a multitude of goodness and kindness. He is faithful. He is never late—or early. His intent is always for our highest good in the end. Sometimes it looks like God is out to get us….

Psalm 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up their wounds. In the Greek, this scripture not only refers to the healing of individuals. It also includes healing of nations and involves restored favor. Do you know any person or nation that is brokenhearted (is a wreck; is crushed or ruptured)? Some come to mind immediately. They need more than a bandage and a couple of aspirin. They need a major overhaul. No amount of human effort is going to…
