Some of my best memories were when my parents were extending out thier hand to comfort me, letting me know it was alright. Our Father in heaven does the same thing for us. He tells us in the bible that is there to comfort us and not to be afraid!Isaiah 41 13 For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.
This question is one that we should all consider. We all do it in one form or the other. With this question he will explain why you should not do it any more! Matthew 6 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
Why worry about what is going to happen? Why be afraid? God is here for you and will take care of you. 1 Peter 5 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
I see so many point fingers at others because they are not believers, we have been instructed not to judge the unsaved. Some Christians, not all, have issues because that person is “rougher” then they are and speak differently. Remember we are all different people coming from different backgrounds, if you share with someone in a manner that comes of as condemning and vitriol. You will give a perception that you think you are better then them or you are looking down on them, which in turn will make them not listen. Do you blame them? We are all sinners on the same level we all sin! We are not commanded to make all people happy, in fact it says in the bible that his message will upset some people. But that does not mean that we stand and point out everyone’s issues, Jesus is love, share in love and you will be surprised what happens! Jesus hung out with sinners and said many times that He did not come for the saved He came for sinners. That is why the profit Paul said this: 1 Corinthians 9 22 I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.
God does not lie, He does not tell stories; the bible is not a book of fairy tales! Time and time again throughout the bible He pleads for everyone to come to Him and get to know Him. When He has said it so many times, why do you question how important you are to Him? Joel 2 32 And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved;
He is waiting for you to open the door He wants the invitation to come in! No matter who you are He is anticipating your welcome at the door! Revelations 3 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. 21 To the one who is victorious, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22 Whoever has ears, let them hear
There is an old saying; I know that place, person, job or whatever you are talking about like the back of my hand. Did you know that God knows you so well that He knows even the hairs on your head. Matthew 10 30 Even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. God is here for you and when you need anything who better to help you than someone who knows you better than you know yourself!
When I sat down and prayed this morning God gave me something profound to share. Many times Jesus said that He came for the sick not the healthy. So who are the sick? We all are! He wants to know all of us, He wants to help us be better people. He wants us all to come home and to be with Him in heaven, not just a few! We are all the same, “for all have sinned”, so knock on the door He will invite you in. Isaiah 42 6 “I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles,7 to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.
One of the most simple/difficult things we are told to do is believe. Simple because we just need to believe; difficult because as humans if we do not see it we do not believe it. This holds more true in the time we live. As we get to know Jesus more it will become so evident that he is real that we question how it could be called faith. Quite simply you have no doubt because of what he has done in your life! Acts 16 31 “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved”
I hear so many say that the bible contradicts itself, others say it is a book of fairy tales. As our knowledge increases more and more they are proving that the “stories” in the bible are true. Proverbs 5 “Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Always remember that our victories through our lord Jesus Christ are Flawless!
Jesus gave us directions on how to pray
Matthew 6 5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 “This, then, is how you should pray:
“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
When I pray I talk to God like I am talking to a friend. You do not have to go into a long drawn out speech a simple thank you lord, help lord, or you are awesome lord will do. When you have more to ask just talk, he can hear you! When I talk to him I start with Dear Heavenly Father, Others use Father God, still others start by saying Jesus it does not matter how you start as long as you pray. While praying remember how would you talk to a friend; relaxed, with love, with respect? Remember he already knows what we need all we have to do is ask. It takes humility to ask for what we need, when we go in front of him with humility and respect he will be there with his arms wide open. In Jesus name Amen!
In the bible over and over God tells us to trust in Him. Have faith that He will take care of us. Not only does He forgive us for the bad we do, He is patent with us knowing us better than we know ourselves.
He understands that we as humans will probably do it again. In those times when it seems hopeless and that everything is overwhelming remember this promise.
Nahum 1 7 The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him Always pray He will guide you through your troubles because He truly does care, He loves you.
It’s a glorious feeling when that piece of paper under the windshield wiper blade turns out to be an advertising circular.

One thing that I have found interesting and profound, the more I read the bible I realize that I should read it more! There are so many programs that claim that they know what the bible says but until we read the bible and dig in we will never truly know what it says. It is being twisted to fit their agenda, our best advice is to do what the bible tells us to do Romans 12: 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
To believe it is all you need, have faith. Romans 10 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Did you know that through the Holy Spirit God guided the people that he chose to write the bible! These words that we have been given are one of the best owners manuals you can own. When we have a question, a problem, need encouragement or anything else God wrote it down so we have His help in everything! All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.2 Timothy 3: 16-17
