Seek God first! - God is good, loving and faithful! Regardless of challenging or shifting situations in our lives, we can rest in the knowledge that God is always there. He is constant, He is full of grace and He hears us when we pray. May our first response in every situation be to seek Him. That is how our hearts get filled with the life-giving energy and wisdom of the Holy Spirit; so that our lives can overflow with HOPE, JOY, PEACE and LOVE. (Lamentations 3:22-26)
Peace be still – It is well with my soul! - Here are a few questions I believe will help us grow in our faith-journey: 1) Are you filled with the Holy Spirit or ‘running on empty’ due to busyness, anxiety or fear? 2)Do you rely on your own abilities and limited knowledge, or do you allow the Holy Spirit to work wisdom, power and strength into your life to help you to see things from a heavenly perspective? 3) Are you living out your purpose and calling – obedient and aligned with God’s will and instructions for your life? 4) Are you using the gifts and talents God has given you to advance His Kingdom and glorify His name here on earth? 5) Do you know (spending enough time) and live according to God’s Word (the Bible) – can you recite at least one Bible verse? 6) Is your heart so filled with God’s Spirit, that His love, peace, hope, joy and life spring forth in all you think, feel and do, regardless of your current situation? 7) Do you act with wisdom, kindness and grace, because you have been forgiven of much; and you know that you are blessed and set apart to be a blessing to others? Let us give thanks today and declare: “Lord, It is well with our souls, because of Who You are!” (Psalm 146:1-2)
A pure heart to shine God’s light… - Our hearts so easily grow hard, filled with darkness and hopelessness as we look at the world around us. But we serve the great I AM, the Creator of heaven and earth… the One who calls us to be light-bearers, confounding all darkness in this world… the One whose greatness, power, glory and majesty is beyond what we can fathom… the One who provides us with wisdom and strength… and the One who purifies our minds and restores our hearts by filling us afresh with light, love, peace, joy and hope. Let us stand in awe of Him! (Psalm 51:10-12)
Praising God regardless… - Let us not react to current circumstances, but respond with worship and thanksgiving towards our Heavenly Father for His mercy, goodness, faithfulness, nearness, direction, provision, kindness, grace, unfailing love and blessings! May we reject the prevailing voices and opinions that are based only on external, visible realities; and instead go back to God’s Word (the Bible) as our foundation and only source of truth! And, may we pray like never before! (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
W@W Year-End Celebration: We are setting time aside to worship our Father God for being the King of our hearts! It will not be the same without you!
