Path of The Righteous

The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
Psalms 19:7 NASB1995

I have directed you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in upright paths. When you walk, your steps will not be impeded; And if you run, you will not stumble. Take hold of instruction; do not let go. Guard her, for she is your life.
Proverbs 4:11-13 NASB1995

Dwell on What is True

Oct30

Finally, brethren, whatever is true, . . .
Philippians 4:8a NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.4.8.NASB1995

“Whatever is true.” What is true? How do we assess what is true? I believe we need to look to the One who is true.

The Lord is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. . .¹  There was the true Light which, coming into the world, enlightens every man.²  He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.³
Jeremiah 10:10/John 1:9/John 3:33 NASB1995

And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.
1 John 5:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.5.20.NASB1995

🌹. . . if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.

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

Wondrous Blessings

May16

Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which You have done, And Your thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, They would be too numerous to count.
Psalms 40:5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.40.5.NASB1995

Do you ever ponder the wonders God has performed in your life? Are you aware of the times He has intervened on your behalf; the blessings He has poured out on you? Do you vocalize it with praise and thanksgiving to God? Do you share with others so they may know His wonders?

🌹Testimonies of the wonders of God in your life are a marvelous way to bring the wonders of God to others.

Have a blessed weekend making memories with God at the center of all you say and do.

Testimony* of God’s Abounding Love

May6

Do you ever recognize the abounding love of God in the little things?

Those little things are so huge to me that I stand in awe that God loves and cares that much for me.

This morning I was running late to work. What can take me anywhere from 15-20 minutes to drive – and usually it’s closer to the 20 – took 13 minutes.

Let me set up the reason why I know God showed His love to me today. I have two stop signs, one on a busy thoroughfare and ten stop lights, one I call the longest light in history if red, on my journey to work.

The first stop light on the busy thoroughfare had no cross traffic. Out of the ten stoplights I had to stop at three of them and the real blessing is “the longest light in history” was green. Woohoo.

I pulled into the parking lot with two minutes to spare. (And no, there was no speeding or illegal driving in the making of this testimony)

God has our days perfectly planned out and when we love Him with all our heart we see reasons to thank Him and praise Him!!!

🙌 Look for ways that God blesses you today. Thank Him and praise Him!!

🌹The Lord is compassionate and gracious, Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.
Psalms 103:8 NASB1995

God’s Word is So, So Good

The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.

Do You Have The Life?

Dec6

God loved you so much that He made a way for you to live forever!!!

John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.3.16.NASB1995

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
1 John‬ ‭4:15‭-‬16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

30 Days of Thanks – D1

Nov1

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

In EVERYTHING!!?!! Good days and BAD days? In trials and tribulations?
Yes, because we who are in Christ Jesus are being perfected each day. Our lives in tribulation; our hearts in the joy of the Lord! And yes because this is God’s will!

When things go awry – off the normal course, amiss – what is the typical response? Whatever the response I can guarantee that most responses will lack thankfulness.

What an awesome testimony to the confidence we have in God by being thankful. Giving thanks to our Lord God through it all. The good and the bad days of our lives.

This month of November I challenge you to make thankfulness your focus. Think of at least one thing each day of this month that you are thankful for. On November 30th look over your list and turn those thankful blessings into thankful praise to God!

🌹always giving thanks for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;
Ephesians‬ ‭5:20‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
