Thankful Praying

Nov18

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.4.6-7.NASB1995

What a friend we have in Jesus. One so near who knows our wants and needs before we even open our mouths but listens anyway. I am so thankful He is only a breath away.
When I pour out my heart, He brings my heart to thankfulness. Thankful that He is big enough to handle the tears, fears, troubles and my confessions of sin. Thankful that He is a forgiving God and able to restore my heart and mind. Thankful for His peace and grace; forgiveness and restoration.

Anxiety replaced with peace.
Requests turned to thankful praise.
Yes, I am very thankful I have a friend in Jesus.

Continually Seeking Him,

Always Giving Thanks

Nov13

in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:18 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1th.5.18.NASB1995

How many times a day do you say ‘Thank you’?
Why do you think it’s God’s will for you to be thankful?

A heart filled with thanks will rejoice always. 1 Thessalonians 5:16
A heart filled with thanks will pray to God continually. 1 Thessalonians 5:17
A heart filled with thanksgiving will praise God. Psalms 7:17
A heart filled with thanks will be loving, giving, caring.
A heart filled with thanks will speak of the glory of God. Psalms 9:1

God uses thankful hearts. Are you thankful?

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.
Colossians 3:15-17 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.3.15-17.NASB1995

Faith in Action

Jul3

If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that?
James 2:15-16 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jas.2.15-16.NASB1995

I just have to say, “I know and serve an amazing God.”

My husband and I went out to breakfast and as we were leaving we noticed an older woman of seventy sitting in the foyer. She was drinking a cup of water, graciously given by the management of the restaurant, after having walked in the heat. This woman was headed to an ATM.

Here’s where God steps in…

We were asked if we knew where an ATM was in the area. With this one question the door of opportunity to practice our faith opened the door to put our faith into action. We took this woman, in an air-conditioned vehicle, to an ATM and then delivered her safely home. We talked of Jesus and we will be praying for her. What a wonderful blessing it was to practice our faith with action; to be a part of God’s plan.

🌹Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.
James 2:17 NASB1995

Hebrews 13:20-21 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.13.20-21.NASB1995

God working in us to be pleasing in His sight! Are we surrendering to the equipping of ourselves for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ?

Overcomer By God

Jan30

Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.
Romans 12:19 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.12.19.NASB1995

God’s word is truth. He is teaching me so much through the preaching at church and these verses about how to address those who hurt you. It comes down, not to the other person, but my reaction to the other person. It really comes down to pride. “How dare they say or do that to me,” when I need to give it to God to handle. That is where our peace subsides. In Jesus, the perfector of our soul.

The Lord your God is in your midst, A victorious warrior. He will exult over you with joy, He will be quiet in His love, He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.
Zephaniah 3:17 NASB1995

To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing.
1 Peter 3:8-9 NASB1995

Philippians 4:6-7 NASB1995
