The Life Change

The unfolding of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.
Psalms 119:130 NASB1995

The power of God’s word to bring light -understanding, direction, sense to life- will change the soul life of a seeking heart.

Proverbs 6:23 NASB1995

Boast in The Lord!

For the kingdom of God does not consist in words but in power.
1 Corinthians 4:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1co.4.20.NASB1995

It is not by my words but by God’s power in me that the gospel and His kingdom grows and flourishes.

For I will not presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me, resulting in the obedience of the Gentiles by word and deed, in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit; so that from Jerusalem and round about as far as Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
Romans 15:18-19 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.15.18-19.NASB1995

God Will Heal

Mar13

and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways,
I will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14g NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.7.14.NASB1995

God’s healing doesn’t stop at individuals. God’s salvation doesn’t end with an individual’s salvation. God is concerned with the individuals as well as the land in which they live.
God’s humble servant who prays and seeks Him will also make a difference in the land in which they reside. God uses changed individuals to spread the good news of His salvation and restoration to heal the land. God has a plan bigger than our individual salvation.

Our restorative healing doesn’t end with salvation. It is just the beginning.

🌹but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth.”
Acts 1:8 NASB1995‬‬

Isaiah‬ ‭40:25‭-‬26‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.40.25.NASB1995

God, there is none equal or greater than You. I look upon Your creation and wonder overtakes me. Majesty is seen in Your mastery. God who created the stars and knows their name.

Glory to Your name!!

🌹On the glorious splendor of Your majesty And on Your wonderful works, I will meditate.
Psalms‬ ‭145:5‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

Bless Our Lord

Dec29

All Your works shall give thanks to You, O Lord, And Your godly ones shall bless You. They shall speak of the glory of Your kingdom And talk of Your power; To make known to the sons of men Your mighty acts And the glory of the majesty of Your kingdom. Psalms‬ ‭145:10‭-‬12‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.145.10.NASB1995‭‭

When you truly know God and the works of His hands, it is hard to keep quiet. God, give us opportunity to make You known to others that they may know the glory of Your kingdom and Your power.
