Faith & Hope, Knowing Him, Prayer

WAIT QUIETLY

Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in him. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will not be shaken. [Psalm 62:5-6 (NLT)]

Oh God, far too many of my prayers consist of me talking to you and far too few of my prayers involve me listening to you! Thank you for reminding me that only in my silence will I hear your voice.

Holidays & Holy Days, Knowing Him, Salvation: A New You

NOTHING CAN STOP HIM (HOLY SATURDAY 2013)

The next day, on the Sabbath, the leading priests and Pharisees went to see Pilate. They told him, “Sir, we remember what the deceiver once said while he was still alive: ‘After three days I will rise from the dead.’ So we request that you seal the tomb until the third day. This will prevent his disciples from coming and stealing his body and then telling everyone he was raised from the dead! If that happens, we’ll be worse off that we were at first.” Pilate replied, “Take guards and secure it the best you can” So they sealed the tomb and posted guards to protect it. [Matthew 27:62-65 (NLT)]

What the Pharisees failed to understand was that neither rock nor seal, soldiers, not even an army, could prevent the Son of God from rising again! Nothing can stop our God!

Attitudes & Behavior, God's Promises, Knowing Him

EVERYTHING YOU NEED

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need. [Matthew 6:33 (NLT)]

You, Oh Lord, know what we need; we know what we want. Much of what we want, we don’t need and, often, much of what we need is precisely what we don’t want. Please align our wants to our true needs. We trust you, God; you will indeed provide everything we need.
