I just wanna start off by wishing one of my 4 Princess Granddaughters, Avia Belle, a very Happy 7th Birthday 🎁🎂🎉 Love you sweetheart. Grandpa is so happy you’ve already invited Jesus into your heart. When Matthew wrote this down in his 10th chapter , Jesus said” freely you have received, freely give”. I hate to say this but if you dropped the dollar out of the so-called Christian work that’s out there today, I bet all of a sudden it’ll be a lot less people for Jesus. I remember when I worked at South Baptist Church as a custodian and I got my paycheck, I knew that was Gods money, He had given me the opportunity to have a job. Can you show me one so-called Christian advertisement that doesn’t have a price tag to it,Waiting to take your money over the phone, I don’t think that’s what Matthew was writing about !!! Good thing Jesus didn’t want to be paid upfront for our sins, we could’ve never afforded that. Happy Birthday Avia !!!! Keep those Bibles read and your prayers said 👍🙏📖 Enjoy Your Saturday

Well do you have the mid winter, Covid filled, blues these days. We call it cabin fever in Michigan, I’m very thankful for the cabin though, last night it was 5°. I’m gonna read you a little bit of Fanny Crosby‘s poem that she wrote when she was eight years old, it might make you quit feeling sorry for yourself for a few minutes, here goes.
“oh, what a happy child am I although I cannot see! I am resolved that in this world contented I will be. how many blessings I enjoy that other people don’t! so weep or sigh because I’m blind I cannot, nor I won’t” The apostle Paul prayed three times a day to have the thorn removed from his flesh.The Bible never talks about what that thorn was,but it obviously was a pain, but God promised him grace to bear the thorn. Paul then said to the Corinthians, his second letter to them,I’d rather glory in my infirmities,knowing that the power of Christ is with me. Got any problems, give them to God. If you could double down on the prayers for Kelli, sure would help, Thanks !!! Keep those prayers said and your Bibles read 👍🙏📖 “turn nonstop griping, into nonstop prayers,I bet you get a lot more friends” Enjoy your Friday!! I don’t know if you’ve ever done this, but there’s days that I’ve taken part of The Armour of God off, and put it in the closet or on the shelf. This is when I seem to get in the most trouble, and screw things up,if you know what I mean. Paul tells us in Ephesians 6, that each day we are to put it on,not just parts of it,and leave some of it at home. Any spiritual victory that we will ever have, is when we are suited up and prepared for battle!!! Good luck, if you think you can do it without being suited up!!! Thanks for the continued prayers for Kelli Kris Steve Maverick and Holly, it’s appreciated!!!! Keep those Bibles read and your prayers said 👍🙏📖. SUIT UP FOR CHRIST, YE SOLDIERS OF THE CROSS !!!!
Isaiah 1:8 ; Come now, and let us reason together, saith The Lord, though your sins be as scarlet, they be made as white as snow !!!!! . We’ve got about 6 inches out there on the ground, I’ve got to get busy, but what a feeling knowing all my filth,if confessed,can be made as white as the snow !!! Have a great Tuesday,keep your prayers said and your Bibles read !!! 👍🙏📖
After studying Exodus 6, ten years ago today, I wrote this in my journal. “When I get depressed, and I do, there seems to be so many reasons that it’s hard to try to make positive out of it. Then I stop and think of what Christ has done for all of us.” Moses was telling the people of Israel in Exodus, to hang in there, there’s evil all around us, they were currently slaves to Egypt, and then Moses cried out, “I come before you God, to ask for Your deliverance of Your people.” Talk about the circumstances of life, on January 25, 2021, I’m glad to hear God hears our cries of help, Doesn’t mean they’re going to be answered in 20 minutes, but it does mean HE hears them. Keep your Bibles read and your prayers said 👍🙏📖 and do your best to hang in there!!! Matthew reminds us in his 14th chapter, 27th verse, “Be of good cheer, it is I,do not be afraid.” JESUS IS THE “ I AM “
If you get time today check out Hebrews 11. that of course is the faith chapter of the Bible, written by Paul back in AD 64. It covers everything about what was accomplished by faith starting with Enoch,Noah, Isaac,Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Rahab, quite a few examples of what faith accomplished in their lives. If you were to write a faith chapter of your life what examples would you have. Is there areas that you can actually recall where Faith got you through. We all have heard walk by faith,not by sight, that’s not possible unless your faith factor is strong enough to actually lead your way. Do yourself a favor, the chapter is 40 versus long, take you five minutes to read it, and will most certainly give you something to think about this week about getting your faith stronger. Preaching to myself this morning first, as always, I took the time to read it this morning, as always, hidden treasures like crazy in there. Faith without works is dead, Hebrews 11 will give you a nice jumpstart to bring your Faith to life!! Keep your Bibles read and your prayers said 👍🙏📖 Thanks for checking in!!! Have a great Lords’Day!! Paul wrote, “Faith Is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” SELAH AMEN & TRUTH
Paul reminds us in Colossians 1:13, that God is more than capable of delivering us from darkness, and give us THE KINGDOM of HIS SON and HIS LOVE for us to look forward to. As you very well know the cost of that forgiveness, was HIS BLOOD that poured out on THE CROSS, that Friday afternoon. I don’t know about you, but I am certainly aware of the fact when I’m not walking in the light or I’m in the gray area, or even in darkness itself. I know that The Lord, thru The Holy Spirit, works in us like that. Jesus loved you enough to die for you, let’s love HIM enough today to make HIM feel like it was worth it.!!! Thanks for all the prayers for Kelli Kristopher Mav Steve Holly Dakota Don & The Young Family!! Let’s all work on keeping our Bibles read and our prayers said 👍🙏📖!!! Enjoy Your Saturday
“HIS DEATH DELIVERED OUR FORGIVENESS, THANK HIM TODAY BY BEING A LIGHT OF THE GOSPEL” TGIF !!! THANK GOD IM FORGIVEN!!!
That’s it, That’s my DAILY THOUGHT for today!! Keep Your Prayers Said,And Your Bibles Read 👍🙏📖 JUST A CLOSER WALK WITH THEE STARTS WITH HIS FORGIVENESS In his sixth chapter, of the letter Paul wrote to the Ephesians, he told parents “not to provoke their children to wrath, but to bring them up in the nurture and admiration of The Lord”. 20 years ago after studying this verse, I made a little footnote in my memory verse book, and I wrote “let God teach me,so I can teach them”It’s a huge responsibility
raising kids, HUGE !!!! That’s why as a parent you should want to dig into God‘s Word every day, as often as you can, so you can be taught, and then you can teach. When I hear precious little stories about my grandkids accepting Christ As Savior !! Writing me memory verses with their precious little hands, they do that because they’re being taught,along with seeing examples examples. You are what you eat,so fill up DAILY with The Bread, keep those prayers said and please please please keep those Bibles read 👍🙏📖 Speaking of prayers if you could squeak in a couple for Kelli Kris Steve Mav Dakota Holly Don Danny Deb and Karen muchly muchly appreciated !!!!! THY WORD HAVE I HID IN MY HEART !!!! I know you have your passwords and pin numbers memorized :-) how many verses of Scripture you got tucked away 😂😂 I’ll shut up now 😂😂 America will get a new President today, the 46TH President to be exact!! God knew this would happen, and who it would be,even before America was born !! Our money says “IN GOD WE TRUST “we even use to say “One Nation Under God” in our schools,and now, this nation,and the rest of the world,not so sure. It’s our duty as Christians, to uphold our country and its leaders in our prayers.If you were to study First & Second Kings,
You would be absolutely shocked as to the leadership of this world,from when it began!! Some good ones and many,many, bad ones,and even some “ Are You Kidding Me Ones” It’s all part of God’s Plan tomorrow at noon!! Be Praying!!! Keep your prayers said,and your Bibles read! 👍🙏📖 Have a Great Wednesday!!! Hezekiah‘s prayer: in Second Kings 19 “ Oh Lord God of Israel, Thou are God alone, Of all the kingdoms, Of all the earth, Thou hast made Heaven and Earth,Bow down Thine Ears and Hear Our Prayers” GET PRAYIN AMERICA |
