Refining and Testing

“And I will put this third into the fire, and refine them as one refines silver, and test them as gold is tested. They will call upon my name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are my people’; and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’””‭‭ Zechariah‬ ‭13‬:‭9‬ ‭ I admit... Continue Reading →

Lay the Weight Down

I try to pay attention when something is repeated at me several times throughout the day or in a short period of time. I recognize that generally, God is trying to get my attention. He knows me well enough (really better than I know myself) to know, that sometimes I need things repeated multiple times... Continue Reading →

Protection of Birds

“He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭91‬:‭4‬ ‭ I looked up the difference between a shield and buckler in Merriman-Webster dictionary.

Complete Freedom

“For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” Galatians‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬ ‭‬ Christ paid the complete price for us to be free at Calvary.

Faces

“The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you,And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ’“So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them.” Numbers 24-27 I sing these words; yet, I never knew where they came from. God told Moses to speak these... Continue Reading →

The Laborers Are Few

Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. Luke 10:2 Only the Lord can send the harvesters, the laborers into the harvest. Maybe that is why it is important to be obedient to the call. If I am called to... Continue Reading →

Words, Light and Darkness

Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Therefore do not become partners with them; for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light. Ephesians 5:6-8 There are so many empty words being shared lately. They bring... Continue Reading →
