For The Moment 117

If God is for you, then who can be against you.

You have nothing to fear. You have nothing to worry about. He sets a path of blessing before you to walk in all peace and confidence.

If God says yes, then no one can say no.

For The Moment…115

A close relationship with the Lord is key to all our needs. He is the source of all blessings , and from him flows all good.

Reading his word and praying to him puts us in a closeness where he will open up understanding and wisdom to us, thereby enabling you to make sure and good decisions.

A closeness with God keeps us safe and secure. We learn to trust Him no matter the circumstance.

He that dwells in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 91 verse 1.

For The Moment…110

Oh Lord my God, how majestic is thy name in all the earth.

The Lord is worthy to be praised.

Blessings and honor are due to his name.

The Lord is high, and we will lift him up to the father and show him all his beauty.

Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty;… thou art exalted as head above all.  1 Chronicles 29 verse 11

For The Moment…110

Take with you the shield of faith so you can withstand the fiery darts of the Devil.

The Devil travels around looking for those he can mess up big time. If you are following the Lord, he does not want to make it easy for you. He springs, hoping to get his claws on you.

But if you read the Word of God faithfully and trust the Lord, your walk of faith gets easier.

When problems come, you dig deep and remember the promises He spoke to you. You call no those promises. You go over them again and again. Soon, those doubts and fears planted in your heart by the Devil will fall away.

You must have the word of God to shield you. If you don’t read the Bible, you have nothing for protection.

Adapted from Ephesians 6.

For The Moment…107

Sometimes, our minds grow stale, and we get tired. Not that we do not love the Lord, but we truly do.

Routine can be mundane, unevenly, and, at times, boring.

We need revival in our spirits. We need to zip up our hearts and feel that love and commitment surging through our veins again.

The only way we can get that is through prayer. Our deeds are not enough, but our hearts need to be engaged with the Lord. In close contact with praying and diving into his word is the way.  A special shout out to the Lord who doesn’t hold anything from us.

Revive us, oh Lord.

So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name. Psalm 80 verse 18.

For The Moment…106

So we thy people and sheep of thy pasture will give thee thanks forever; we will shew forth thy praise to all generations. Psalm 79 verse 13.

We have a privilege to call on the name of the Lord at all times, not just to make requests but also to praise him and to give thanks.

Thanks giving is forgotten when we have needs. We look to him for help so easily, and yet to thank him, we have to have a reference point.

How selfish are we to put our needs forward everytimewe approach him.

For a moment, take time to give the Lord a word of praise and thank him not just for what he has done but because he is God and worthy to be praised.

For The Moment…103

Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge him, and he will direct your path. Proverbs 3 verses 5 and 6

Give it all to God. If the problem is too big and the solution is too hard to fathom.

When there is no hope in the natural sense, believe.

Remember, we serve a supernatural God whose ways for not our ways. Who can do anything far above what we can ever think.

Only if we believe and trust in him with a faith even as small as a mustard seed. He will move heaven and earth to see us through.

For The Moment…102

I seek the Lord for his word is sweet.

I trust the Lord, for he is good and true.

He is the source of all my blessings. Everything that I have and everything that I am, I owe it all to the Lord.

He provides for all my needs even before I know what to ask for. I call on his name in my day of trouble.

I call on his name when I am lost.

I call upon his name when I have a song on my lips.

Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils. Isaiah 2 verse 22.

For The Moment…101

Looking in the mirror, you don’t like what you see convincing yourself that your so-called flaws are ugly.

What is your beauty standard? Who made it up?

Beauty shines from the inside out. It is something that can not hide. It should be appreciated and praised. It can be seen by the eyes of the beholder. 

Next time when you want to bring yourself down because others can not see the beauty that shines from your soul, remember you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Psalm 139 verses 13 and 14.

I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that fearth the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 30 verse 31.

Fearing the Lord does not always mean to run and hide away from him because he is a God of judgment.

There is reverential fear. This is when you own him as Lord. You praise him. And you bow the knee in adoration.

It is when you understand his holiness and that it demands your honor and praise and love.
