Nothing will harm you…

God promises…

No weapon that is formed against you shall prosperity and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgement thou shalt condemn. This is the héritage of the servant of the Lord. Isaiah 54 verse 17.

Death of a friend…

The home call of a family friend, someone I have known from childhood, puts life into perspective.

Life is so fleeting with all the ups and downs. Yet, within the shadows of these trials and tribulations, there are moments of joy and blessing where there is singing and laughter. The complexities of living are something to hold fast and to give God thanks for all he has done and all he will do.

Blessed be the Lord, who daily loaded us with benefits. Psalm 68 verse 19.

Promises, Promises All God’s Promises

It is a universal fact that people fail to keep their word.

But God is the Almighty, and he can never go back on his word.

There shall not any man be able to stand before you all the days of your life. God said, “I will not fail you nor forsake you.”

Joshua 1 verse 5

For The Moment…46

Over eight times in Psalm 34, God’s deliverance from all evil, against the enemy, and from fear is spoken.

The theme of  the promise of God hearing the cries of his people and saving them from all their trouble saturates this Psalm.

The faithfulness and precious love of God runs freely from him to those he loves. Trust and belief in the Lord are our weapons against all fear, against whatever evil we face every day. He is a present help when we are in trouble.

I sought the Lord, and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears. Psalm 34 verse 4.

God Is In Control…

Yet To Be # 268

Happy New Year

We stand on the threshold of a new year looking inward for strength and forward for hope, in the midst of our quivering apprehension and excitement.

We fear the future when we can’t see clearly the path that is set before us. Still without knowing what this new year will bring, we can rest in the knowledge and assurance of God promises.

He will never leave us or forsake us. His promises are real. His word is true.

We have nothing to worry about. We have nothing to fear because God is in control.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flies by day. Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Psalm 91 verses 5 to 7.

He knows the Way

Fear Not You Can’t Take It With You…

Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased. For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away. Psalm 49 verses 16 and 17.

You Are Never Alone

The Lord is a refuge to them who trust Him.

Fear Not – God Is A Shelter From Pursuit, Danger or Difficulty…

Therefore will not we fear…

Yet To Be # 259

Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carries into the midst of the sea. Psalm 46 verse 2

We are not alone in our circumstances.
And although some problems are insurmountable, God is there.
There is nothing too hard for Him, nothing impossible for our God.
He created the world by calling the things that were not into being.
This same mighty God hears every cry, every wayward thought, and still knows our needs.
He is not slack, nor is His arm too short that He could not save.

And praying together keeps the family happy and safe.
