What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #9

When the way is seemingly blocked before you and you’re wrestling with fears and doubts—remember, my friend, God has the answer and the right timing!

“Be still,

and know that I am God:

I will be exalted among the heathen,

I will be exalted in the earth.”  Psalm 46:10

While fear is an emotion and not a sin, we can let fear become sin, when we let it control our lives and our choices.  I have two simple scriptures that I hope will encourage you today!

“Fear thou not;

for I am with thee:

be not dismayed;

for I am thy God:

I will strengthen thee;

yea, I will help thee;

yea, I will uphold thee

with the right hand

of my righteousness.”  Isaiah 41:10

And Paul’s amazing instruction to us has always been a great help to me and I hope it will lift your heart today.

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear;

but of power,

and of love,

and of a sound mind.”  2 Timothy 1:7

 Stand fast my friends—remember, “Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth”!  We win!!!

Amen and Amen!!!

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #5

I am thankful for second chances (and third, and fourth….God’s infinite grace and mercy can only count…) in Jesus Christ my Lord.  For He has promised to forgive us, and not only to forgive but to “cleanse us from all unrighteousness”!  Praise HIS dear name.  If you are wrestling with guilt or shame, won’t you simply confess your sin and ask for Jesus’ forgiveness and cleansing.  He is standing ready to meet you right there!

“But if we walk in the light,

as he is in the light,

we have fellowship one with another,

and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son

cleanseth us from all sin.

8 If we say that we have no sin,

we deceive ourselves,

and the truth is not in us.

9 If we confess our sins,

he is faithful and just

to forgive us our sins,

and to cleanse us

from all unrighteousness.

10 If we say that we have not sinned,

we make him a liar,

and his word is not in us.”  1 John 1:7-10

Don’t be a liar—especially to yourself—but call on the TRUTH!

“Jesus saith unto him,

I am the way,

the truth,

and the life:

no man cometh unto the Father,

but by me.”  John 14:6

 Blessings on your day and remember that attitude of gratitude!!!

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #3

I am thankful for Jesus and HIS substitutionary, atoning sacrifice that was made for you and me; if we but repent of our sin and believe in His amazing sacrifice on the cross for all who will come.

“Giving thanks unto the Father,

which hath made us meet to be partakers

of the inheritance of the saints in light:

13 Who hath delivered us

from the power of darkness,

and hath translated us

into the kingdom of his dear Son:

14 In whom we have redemption

through his blood,

even the forgiveness of sins:”              Colossians 1:12-14

You see, my friends, sin IS the issue and only Jesus has the “cure”!  It’s why HE came; and for that I am grateful!

“And she shall bring forth a son,

and thou shalt call his name JESUS:

for he shall save his people

from their sins.

22 Now all this was done,

that it might be fulfilled

which was spoken of the Lord

by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child,

and shall bring forth a son,

and they shall call his name Emmanuel,

which being interpreted is,

God with us.” Matthew 1:21-23

God with us=JESUS, who came to deliver us from the penalty of sin and give us ‘abundant’ life through His blood!

Amen!!!

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #2

 

When I don’t know where to go, then what?  I run to my faithful God!

“The name of the LORD

is a strong tower:

the righteous runneth into it,

and is safe.”  Proverbs 18:10

 God is ever faithful, not only to send “His only begotten Son” for our salvation, but He ever stands beside us and will direct our steps if we will but heed to His voice!

“Hear my cry, O God;

attend unto my prayer.

2 From the end of the earth will I cry

unto thee,

when my heart is overwhelmed:

lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me,

and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever:

I will trust in the covert of thy wings.

Selah.”  Psalm 61:1-4

And one of my favorite words of encouragement for which I am most thankful!  How about you?  Take heart my friends—God IS here—there—everywhere!

“Trust in the LORD

with all thine heart;

and lean not

unto thine own understanding.

6 In all thy ways acknowledge him,

and he shall direct thy paths.”  Proverbs 3:5-6

Amen and Amen!!!

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #1

When I don’t know what to do?

“If any of you lack wisdom,

let him ask of God,

that giveth to all men liberally,

and upbraideth not;

and it shall be given him.

6 But let him ask in faith,

nothing wavering.

For he that wavereth

is like a wave of the sea

driven with the wind and tossed.

7 For let not that man think

that he shall receive any thing

of the Lord.

8 A double minded man

is unstable in all his ways.”  James 1:5-8

I am thankful that The Almighty God of all creation loves me and has promised to grant me wisdom for each day.  You can count on Jesus!  He never fails.

Amen and Amen!!!
