Praising No Matter The Storm???  A Word from THE WORD!!! #81

“Sing unto the LORD,

bless his name;

shew forth his salvation

from day to day.

3 Declare his glory

among the heathen,

his wonders

among all people.

4 For the LORD is great,

and greatly to be praised:

he is to be feared

above all gods.”  Psalm 94:2-4

I just want to spend some time today praising our Awesome God–Father, Son, and Holy Spirit–who blesses us beyond measure.  May we be found praising HIS name in words, in actions, and love before a lost and dying world.  TODAY!!!

“Make a joyful noise

unto the LORD,

all ye lands.

2 Serve the LORD

with gladness:

come before his presence

with singing.

3 Know ye that the LORD

he is God:

it is he that hath made us,

and not we ourselves;

we are his people,

and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving,

and into his courts with praise:

be thankful unto him,

and bless his name.

5 For the LORD is good;

his mercy is everlasting;

and his truth endureth

to all generations.”  Psalm 100:1-5

And just a few more to encourage us in our praise!!!

“Praise ye the LORD.

O give thanks unto the LORD;

for he is good:

for his mercy endureth for ever.”  Psalm 106:1

“Praise ye the LORD.

Praise,

O ye servants of the LORD,

praise the name of the LORD.

2 Blessed be the name of the LORD

from this time forth and for evermore.

3 From the rising of the sun

unto the going down of the same

the LORD’S name

is to be praised.”  Psalm 113:1-3

“O praise the LORD,

all ye nations:

praise him,

all ye people.

2 For his merciful kindness

is great toward us:

and the truth of the LORD

endureth for ever.

Praise ye the LORD.”  Psalm 117:1-2

May your day be filled and blessed with praise–especially on the tough days!  God is still God and HE NEVER FAILS.

“Let your conversation

be without covetousness;

and be content

with such things as ye have:

for he hath said,

I will never leave thee,

nor forsake thee.

6 So that we may boldly say,

The Lord is my helper,

and I will not fear

what man shall do unto me.”  Hebrews 13:5-6

Have a blessed day of praise!

Amen and Amen!!!

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #10

Today I want to share one of my favorite passages on parenting, especially on this day #10, which just happens to be the date of my mother’s birthday (and she would have been 99); and how appropriate to honor biblical parenting on this day. I am truly thankful to have been blessed with godly parents–not perfect– but a father and mother who pursued godliness. Thank you, Jesus, for blessing me so!

“And thou shalt love the LORD thy God

with all thine heart,

and with all thy soul,

and with all thy might.

6 And these words,

which I command thee this day,

shall be in thine heart:

7 And thou shalt teach them diligently

unto thy children,

and shalt talk of them

when thou sittest in thine house,

and when thou walkest by the way,

and when thou liest down,

and when thou risest up.

8 And thou shalt bind them

for a sign upon thine hand,

and they shall be as frontlets

between thine eyes.

9 And thou shalt write them

upon the posts of thy house,

and on thy gates.”  Deuteronomy 6:5-9

 And if I might make a bit of commentary, God was telling His people that it all started with them–if you don’t love God, you can’t pass it on!  If you do love God with your “all”, then pass it on–taking advantage of every ‘teachable moment’ with your children; in conversation, in relaxation, in activities, at bedtime and waking time, decorate your home with godly reminders instead of worldly distractions!

So, in closing, this will be our last “What am I thankful for?” post for now, and I’ll see you in a few days.  Blessings on you day and remember what a blessing it is to have godly parents and a real call to “BE” a godly parent!

Amen and Amen!!!

2 Timothy 1:7, Fear, Fearlessness, Gratitude, Isaiah 41:10, Not the spirit of fear, Psalm 46:10, Thanks-Giving, Trust in God, Wait on the Lord

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! #8

Today I am thankful to live in a Democratic Republic, and for the privilege to vote.  I thank God for America, and I pray that each of you will pray, do your due diligence in making your choices, and then go and vote (or thank you if you early voted or sent in your absentee ballots)!  And then please do the most important thing and that is PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! PRAY! PRAY!

Trust the rest to The Sovereign God of all.

“The king’s heart

is in the hand of the LORD,

as the rivers of water:

he turneth it whithersoever he will.”  Proverbs 21:1

And an amazing reminder from the prophet Daniel.

“Daniel answered and said,

Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever:

for wisdom and might are his:

21 And he changeth the times and the seasons:

he removeth kings,

and setteth up kings:

he giveth wisdom

unto the wise,

and knowledge

to them that know understanding:

22 He revealeth

the deep and secret things:

he knoweth

what is in the darkness,

and the light

dwelleth with him.

23 I thank thee, and praise thee,

O thou God of my fathers,

who hast given me

wisdom and might,

and hast made known unto me now

what we desired of thee:

for thou hast now made known unto us

the king’s matter.”  Daniel 2:20-23

Blessings on you and yours, and God, please bless America again!

Amen and Amen!!!

Deuteronomy 11:13-14, Early rain and latter rain, God Is In Charge, Gratitude, It's not the weatherman!, Rain, Sunshine and Rain

What Am I Thankful For???  A Thanksgiving Word for today! #7

As most of you know, we live in Oklahoma and drought is a regular part of our lives, so rain is a real “biggy” for most of us here; and when the rains come, we are grateful.  I have a dear friend, and I’m always telling him that if nobody else in Oklahoma is praying for rain, I know that he and I are!  And that is true, for I pray for the rain continually—both asking God and thanking HIM when it comes.  In fact, I am often heard to say, “My confidence isn’t in the government nor the weatherman!  But my confidence is in Jesus Christ my Lord!”  God is the giver of sunshine and rain.  And for that I’m grateful, and we’ve had some wonderful rains of late, and I almost always smile and say, “Thank YOU, Jesus!”

How about you?  Have you considered that God is the One who is in charge of the weather?  I trust HIM with a grateful heart! How about you?

“And it shall come to pass,

if ye shall hearken diligently

unto my commandments

which I command you this day,

to love the LORD your God,

and to serve him

with all your heart

and with all your soul,

14 That I will give you the rain of your land

in his due season,

the first rain

and the latter rain,

that thou mayest gather in

thy corn,

and thy wine,

and thine oil.”  Deuteronomy 11:13-14

May you enjoy your day, thanking God for sunshine and rain!

Amen and Amen!!!
