The word for today is - Directions!

Good morning,
The word for today is - Directions!
Are you running from something or running towards something? People are looking for directions like little children, read Jeremiah 1:7-8,But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD. We need to pray for one another for directions from the word of God. Lets read Romans 10:1-3, Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.This may be you or someone you know. So,we must pray for one another to get the knowledge of God's word. People are seeking for answers.All people everywhere at some time in their lives recognize that they need guidance and direction to find hope for eternity. Some people think that no one cares, they may become discouraged or even think life is not worth living. This is wrong! God cares for everyone, you must understand,that God is faithful to Himself first. That means He is true to His word. The Bible says, God's word will not return to himself void, His word will accomplish all that it is send to do. Read Isaiah 55:11, So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. Surely these are questions that should concern every one of us in this walk of life. So, where do we go,? We should be looking and running to the word of God for answers. Read Hebrews 13:5-6, 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. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. The Bible tells us God cares for us, and God will not fail us nor forsake us. People may fail you, or mistreat you, or disappoint you, but God always remains faithful and true to His word.The word of God says, the sets of a good people are order by God, read Psalm 37:23,The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.You must trust in the Lord, read Proverbs 3:5-6,Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Teaching !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Teaching !
 
Lets start with the word of God, it says many will not be teachers, read James 3:1,My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. Do you know that teaching is a gift from god? Anyone,who is a teacher of others should be expected to obey His or Her teaching also. It is not those who hear the law, are righteous, but whoever obey it, read Romans 2:13-14, For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves. We expect a man or woman to set an example of their teaching, read Romans 2:21-22, You therefore who teach another, can you not teach yourself? you that preach a man should not steal, do you steal? You that say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? you that abhor idols, do you commit sacrilege? The word of God is asking,are you ignorant or foolish? In other words,are you uneducated or lacking in knowledge? Read Mark 7:7-9, Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.The commission of Christ is for us to teach the gospel, read Matthew 28:16-20,Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.Amen. You must hear the word of God, from one that is sent,read Romans 10:17-18,So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. But I say,Have they not heard? Yes verily, their sound went into all the earth, and their words unto the ends of the world. The word of God is for everyone that has a ear to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, to all the nations. We all must be doers of the word of God. Now, lets read James 1:23-24, For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a mirror:For he beholds himself, and goes his way, and immediately forgets what manner of man he was. This means talking a good game is just that, talk, but walking it out is putting the word into actions. Look at James 1 verse 25, But whoever looks into the perfect law of liberty, and continues in it, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. Amen !!!!! God knows everything about us, we can not lie to God, read James 2:17-19,Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. That is something to think about? Our Heavenly Father, help us to teach and preach the living word of your Kingdom.Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Faith !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Faith !
 
So,where is your Faith? Is it in God or man ? Some people have faith in things and people.Read Romans 10:8-9,But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. If your faith is in Him (Jesus) you shall be saved, this is Spiritual life.The word of God says, I tell you the truth, If you have faith in my word, then you can move a mountain, read Mark 11:23, For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be removed, and be cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he said shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he said. Now thats powerful !! Also,read Luke 17:6, And the Lord said, If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say unto this sycamine tree, Be plucked up by the root, and be planted in the sea; and it would obey you. In other words, If you have faith and do not doubt my word, "Nothing will be impossible for you." "When , we say that nothing is impossible," If God said it, its done. Read Matthew 21:21, Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If you have faith, and doubt not, you shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if you shall say unto this mountain, Be removed, and be cast into the sea; it shall be done. This is the power of the word of God, If you believe in Him, you will find that all things are possible. I have been studying a book about Prayer, the Author is Dr. Myles Munroe, it is one of the National Best Seller books. In this study, I have learn that God wants to use, His power here on earth, If we get understanding of the word of God first. When, we say that God's word is alive, understand that the Spirit of God gives life, its an living and active word that changes people and things. What did God use to create the world? The Word, from the beginning!  Read John 1:1-3, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. You must have faith to  please God, it is impossible to please God without faith. Read Hebrews 11:6, But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. The word of God says,Whoever acknowledges me, I will acknowledge you before our Hevenly Father, Christ speaks of spiritual things, read Matthew 10:32,Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father who is in heaven. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Trust ! !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Trust ! !
 
Lets start with Deuteronomy 32:3-4, Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Some people put there trust in anything else or other people,rather than the Lord. We have to ask ourselves, do we truely trust Him? Or do we put our trust in our own abilities, it's easy to trust in things that we can see. Why are you worrying, when the word of God says, trust in Him? Read Matthew 6:27-29,Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. So, what is the solution?  The word of God, if He spoken it, its done! You have to understand, God can not lie,read Numbers 23:19,God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: has he said, and shall he not do it? or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Trust His word,read Matthew 6:30-33,Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Past !

Good morning,
The word for today is -  Past !
 
Everyone that believes in Christ Jesus is a new creature, the old man is passed away, read 2 Corinthians 5:17,Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. The bible says, think on the things which are in Christ Jesus, read Isaiah 43:18-19,Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. If you start studying and reading the word of god, your way of thinking will change. You will start moving forward, your past is behind you, read Romans 13:12,The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. We have to press forward, read Philippians 3:13-14,Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Understand this  you are of the light , your free from darkness, read Romans 6:22-23,But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. We are servants to God, read John 12:26,If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. So, we must follow His word, read John 13:16,Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Positive !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Positive !
 
What the world needs is Godlessness. Do you want the knowledge of the truth? Godly people are walking in Love, one for another, but evil people will go on living from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. Some people have Godliness within and out, and others have a form of Godliness on the outside only, and evil within. We have to acknowledge negative circumstances and negative people, you can chooses to be positive or negative in every circumstance.You have a choice to be a Positive thinker or Negative thinker! The word of God says,Have the same attitude as Christ Jesus, read Philippians 2:5, Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. The type of thoughts that you choose is up to you, you can decide which type of thoughts you want to focus on. If, anyone comes to you today speaking negative, you have the power within you to speak positive. Speak the word of God, ask them do you know that God loves you and so do I. Also let them know, from 1 Corinthians 15:3-4,For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures. For us, the believers! Do you want to have a good day or a bad day? The Bible is very clear,understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty,read 2 Timothy 3:1-5,This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. The word of God says, turn away from this, understand this, all Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness. Always do your best to speak with a positive attitude and truth, read 1 Peter 3:13-16,And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? But and if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are ye: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled; But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ. Always do your best in being positive, speak the word of God over yourself and for others, stay strong and focused. The word tells us to pray for one another. Here are some positive quotes to encourage you, to inspire you, and for you to share with others. Read Proverbs 3:5-6,Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Psalm 34:8,O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. Psalm 46:10,Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Romans 8:38-39,For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.Galatians 2:20,I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. I choose to speak Positive, (live)!Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !

The word for today is - Come !

Good morning,
The word for today is - Come ! 
 
Are you looking for rest? Are you looking in the right direction ? The Spirit of the Lord says, Come to me,read Matthew 11:28,Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. The direction you should be going is to Jesus, read John 14:6,Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Jesus is saying, Come ! The Spirit of God  says, whosoever will believe will live, read Revelation 22:17,And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. Read that again this water of live is giving to us freely. If the Spirit of God abide in you, and you abide in Him, then you should be walking and talking in the Spirit of Love,. Read John 15:1-9, I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. The word says,the Lord has commanded us to, continue to walk in Love, read John 15, verse 11-12, These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
