And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man saying, we will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name , to take away our reproach. Isaiah 4 verse 1.

A true marriage of convenience. This is a prophesy from ancient times, and it fits so well in today’s modern society.

It is good to be strong and not to be dependent on people. Our dependence should be on God, not on a man or anyone, but God is our resource.

He provides people to help us in our time of need. He prepares a path for us to walk where we encounter many folks to help us and to be there for us. We are never alone.

We can be self-sufficient, but we need to call upon the Lord for our needs.

The Lord thy God in the midst ofvthee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.

Zechariah 3 verse 17

What a good God we serve.

We ought to remember he is not just a God of judgment because he is holy, but he is a God of love and compassion.

His love is beyond our understanding. Look how he sent his only son, the son of his love; he sent him to die so that we could be saved.

How wonderful is he.

He will not hold back anything good from his people, those same people who he loves.

Vow and pay unto the Lord your God. Psalm 76 verse 11

If you make a promise to God, please fulfill that promise. We need to remember He is God the almighty. Spoke words to him are not taken lightly.

We trust him to fulfill his promises to us. Why do we not do the same?

The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

Psalm 53 verse 1

We try to sneak past God by doing good deeds, hoping we will get to heaven. But we can’t because God knows our hearts, our true motives.

Sure, we can be moved with compassion to give to the poor, to donate to some charity research foundation on the cusp of finding a  cure. We show true kindness, but many times when we are not looking, we are hard hearted in other parts of life.

We are called good but are we good all the time?

God knows the heart, and we can’t  hoodwink him. Motives are measured in heaven.

For The Moment…74

I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever.

Psalm 52 verse 8

If it were not for the kindness of God, life would be most miserable.

His compassions are renewed daily.

Great is faithfulness in times of trouble.

For The Moment…64

O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with voice of triumph.

Psalm 47 verse 1

Because we believe, we praise the Lord.

The Lord is great.

The Lord is the one we serve.

Praise Him for not only what He has done but also for who He is.

He is the most high God, the almighty.

For The Moment…63

When God works for you, who can stop it?

Before time began, God existed. There is no beginning to His kingdom, and there is no end. He sits on His throne and rules over everything.

When He makes a promise, there is no one who can stop it. His mind is fixed, and His hand is stretched out to deliver His people.

Like a loving father cherishing His children, so too God loves His people. The same God who makes a path in the sea. A way in the mighty waters, in the storm to safety.  He is our father.

Great is our God.

Thus saith the Lord, which make the a way in the sea; and a path in the mighty waters. Remember, ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing.

Isaiah 43 verses 16 to 19.

For The Moment…62

He prepares everything for those who love Him.

He promised to go ahead and make the path straight. He will walk with you through the waters of destruction and be with you even in the fire so the flames will not burn.

He will guide you with His eyes upon you so you have never to be afraid.

These promises are His to make because He can never lie because He is God.

Of His love, there is no end and no beginning. It is as eternal and infinite as He is real, as He is true.

Lift upon your eyes on high. Lift up your heart and see the beauty of my Lord.

Is not His name Wonderful?

( Adapted from Psalm 46 and Isaiah 40, 41, and 42)

For The Moment…61

My tongue should always speak the truth.

My mouth shall not send out curses but blessing.

The way I walk and talk should please God that I do not fall into temptation.

I should have a song in my mouth and ready words of praise for my Lord.

My heart is inviting a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is a pen of a ready writer.

Psalm 45 verse 1

For The Moment…60

Awake, why steepest thou, O Lord?

Psalm 44 verse 23

With all reverence, there are times when I feel the Lord is silent. I think in my heart he does not hear me.

I wonder if I am worthy to receive a blessing or a positive answer. Do I have his favor? I am so far gone in my life he will not hear me?

Others are receiving, and yet I am not receiving. Has he forgotten me? Maybe I am living a life not pleasing to him? Maybe I haven’t confessed my sins.

Then I remember His word he will never leave or forsake me.

Wait on the Lord, and he will bring it to pass.
