Light to my path. Worship Anthem

https://youtu.be/fhgBqsuruIM?si=KEi38VpCqq0G3Iks

I love this scripture and the more I meditate on it, the more I love it. I know that there is no excuse not to know God. It's a person's own ignorance and being lazy not to spend time in the Word developing the best love relationship you will ever have. Every person who says that they are a Christian, has the ability to grow and know God, but not every christian has developed. I love how God says.. "And each person will not teach his fellow citizen, and each his brother or sister saying, "know the Lord" because they will all know me" ...And why is this? Because just before that He says.. " I will put my laws into their minds and write them on their hearts" We can keep making excuses for the sin that we remain in. Or we can ask Jesus for the promised Holy Spirit to come and live within us and change us. We must make the choice. We can either let the living Word guide our way. Or we can walk by our feelings, which is truly walking blind...Hebrews 8: 10-12

Glory to You Lord

Jesus is the way.. mountains in the ses

Hebrews 4:13 states that "nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of Him to whom we must give an account". This verse emphasizes God's complete knowledge and the ultimate accountability of every person to Him for their actions, thoughts, and intentions. It's crazy how so many live without a reverential fear of a Holy God who has given us a chance at life. Not talking about unbelievers, but those who say they believe and yet live however they FEEL is right. Living by feelings is very dangerous. Can you imagine if Jesus stated this Scipture this way. "If you feel the truth it will set you free." But it's not stated that way. It's stated "KNOW the truth and it will set you free." John 8:32. God is so good and so patient with all of us. But not all get into the Word. Hebrews 4:12-13, let his word penetrate your feelings to want to live by knowing the truth that changes your soul. If you desire to KNOW the truth, you've got to read it. Then, your heart's desire will be to go out and share it. How could anyone keep something that has brought such peace to your soul and not want someone else to have the same experience? Life is hard. God is good

For Your Glory Lord Jesus

Remembrance Hillsong

We could never be good enough. We could never faithfully follow the ten commandments. That is why God sent us His Son to save us. This precious grace cost God everything. Grace cost God the life of His Son, Jesus Christ, as a sacrifice for humanity's sins.  While God's grace is a free gift, its value is immeasurable because it came at the ultimate price of his son's life. How can we treat it so lightly? How could we continue to be in the sin that we know Is sin? Just stare at the cross a little longer. As we do, remember the suffering our Savior went through to save us.  He didn't have to. But he did. He doesn't make us come to Him. But how could we not? It's a choice we are all free to make. But that choice makes all the difference at the end of our lives. I need my Savior daily. I need to talk to Him daily. I want to hear Him daily. That is why I love His written Living word so much. It changes me daily. I want to live in remembrance of the price Jesus paid for me.

Ephesians 2: 4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved....

 Thank You Lord Jesus

The Gardener

 https://youtu.be/E5bJguYEapg?si=_RA8oszer2lIIM4w the gardener

While we are saved in an instant, it takes a lifetime for God to develop what He is doing on the inside.  Place your confidence in Jesus Christ and the gift He gave us.  The power of the Holy Spirit living within us. Working out this beautiful gift of salvation is lifelong, Philippians 2:12-16 The more we get to know Him, He will transform our character to look more and more like Him. You don't get this by just going to church. It's our personal time with Him in the Word. We're to honor God with our decisions according to His word, not by how we feel. God allows circumstances to come into our life that require us to gain a higher reverence for Him and choose His will over our own.

He is the Gardener and we are the vine. Let Him have His way in the branch of this gift of life. He is our source of life. John 15:1 

Glory to God

Sing in the darkness

 What is it that you want to take hold of? For me it's healing from my surgeries. I need to take action, pray and believe. It's going to take working through hard workouts. It's going to take the direction that God is leading me through prayer which is.... Acupuncturist, massage and chiropractor. It's not giving in to double mindedness. It's staying constant as my God is constant. It's giving thanks every single day that I can do the things that I do regardless of the discomfort. I choose to sing and pray through the shadows because that's all they are. God is good and He is faithful! I will continue to BELIEVE!

 Proverbs 18:10 The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

Deuteronomy 1:21See, the Lord your God has given you the land. Go up and take possession of it as the Lord, the God of your ancestors, told you.

GLORY TO YOU OH LORD

I absolutely love these verses, especially now with questions in my mind of the catastrophe in Texas.  I believe I'm not the only one who questions things in life, and God is big enough to handle those questions. He understands our humanness.   The most important thing is to just  keep talking to Him. Keep seeking Him in His word. Keep reminding yourself of His faithfulness. Like the lyrics of a song that says... "maybe our greatest disappointments, and the aching of this life, is a revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy." .... The amazing thing is, even when you still don't have the answers to your questions. He has a way of bringing peace that passes all understanding in time.  He is faithful. This is not our home. Because of Jesus's great sacrifice, we have a place that He is preparing for all of us who believe. Some are just going home sooner than you and me. 

Hebrews 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. 16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

May You be glorify Lord. Kim D

More to come.. Passion

All of my hope, trust, and all my future is in Jesus Christ. Great things He has done in my life and I know He isn't finished with me yet. 

Things haven't always turned out as I hoped and prayed for, but God is still faithful in His plan for me, for us.  His plan to grow us Spiritually. To see things as He wants us to see them. To make us more like Christ.

God plan is for all of us. Knowing Him more and more isn't through the easy things in life. It's through the trials. Yes, even in the suffering.This is where we either draw closer to Him, or we fall away because of not being acceptable to what He has allowed to come our way.

When you read in the Old Testament the books of the Prophets you will see how they suffered. When you read the new testament, the stories that were written from the apostles, you will see how they suffered. Scriptures about entering into suffering often portray God's presence and guidance amidst hardship. While suffering is not pleasant, it is presented as a part of life, a time for dependence on God, and an opportunity to grow in faith and character. Jesus himself entered into suffering, and His example encourages believers to find comfort and strength in God's love and promises during trials. 

When we understand this is not our home. That we,  just like the Prophets and the apostles are vessels for the Holy Spirit to bring God's kingdom to earth and make more disciples.. Matthew 6:10....Matthew 28:19-20.. Mark 16:15..

No matter what battle we go through,

He promises, we are not alone. 

Every victory, every battle won, there is still more to come. So while we are still here,  enjoy the more that is to come.....

Remembering, even the victory over death has been won. The believer never dies. We just close our eyes, take our last breath, and the next breath is in glory.

For Your Glory dear God I wright.
