God’s Help For Us

-

1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you, but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it. (NASB)

Have you ever felt trapped by a sinful habit that leads you to try to compromise with God? Compromising with God is pointless. God’s position on sin is very clear. God hates sin. Proverbs 6:16-19 covers the sins that God hates.
Proverbs 6:16-19
16 There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
Even though God hates these things, He still loves us and has great passion for us as His children. He wants us to experience His heart and desire for us to have peace in Him and victory over sin in our lives. Satan does not represent peace in any way. I know some people who have even justified their sin by calling it innocent or calling something like a little white lie. Let’s face the facts. A lie or any other sin is just that…. a SIN and a half-truth is a whole lie. God can guide you to repentance as He deals with your heart through the Holy Spirit.
Rest in God and experience the fullness of joy that only God can provide through His son Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. God wants to prosper us in Him. Living a life in Christ is living a life of victory and peace. Enjoy His presence as you seek His will to give your problems over to Him.
Key Thought: I promise you; God will resolve each issue you have with sin if you just give Him the opportunity. He is ABLE!!!
Prayer: Dear Father in Heaven, Help me to have the courage to deal with sin issues in my own life. I love You Lord! In Jesus’ Name I pray, AMEN!!!
Application for the day: We are not alone. God is with us through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us as believers. We can be renewed through Christ!
Have a Blessed Day!!!
In Christ,

David Calls Out!

-
Psalms 55: 1   Listen to my prayer, O God, do not ignore my plea; hear me and answer me.  My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught.  (NIV) David is going through some tough times here.  He is calling out to God for relief.  He knows God will hear him. We should approach God the same way.  It is clear that David has this unlimited trust in the Father.  David has a relationship with Him and God enjoys pouring out His love and grace on those who trust Him to do so.  At the end of this Psalm we see a new David.  Vs.23 closes with: But as for me, I trust in you. Regardless of any circumstances God is near and ready to hear you call out to Him.  Yes, our thoughts can trouble us.  As men we have a different thought life.  We know how bad it can be at times to concentrate on God in prayer only to find our mind wandering to an area it shouldn’t be.  Don’t worry God hears and knows your heart, and rescue is on the wa...

The Seven Promises of a Promise Keeper

-
  Promise Keepers 1993-2024-2 The attendance of that conference in Indianapolis Indiana at the Hosier Dome was a little over 70,000. Many conferences over the next several years averaged between 60,000 and 70,000. Several conferences were held throughout the year, mostly from early summer into mid-fall. Some conferences were held in open stadiums and others held in enclosed arenas. One was even held at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in Charlotte, North Carolina. Before we get into the individual promises, I have listed the seven promises below to give you an idea of the direction we will be following. I am currently working on a biography covering the years I was able to attend the conferences. Several years we were able to attend more than one conference and sometimes three. At the time the individual admission was $72.00 per person. Most of the men were from young families and the admission price was hard to come by, plus we had to add the cost for an overnight stay which var...

Instructions Of A Father

-
Proverbs 4: 1   Hear O sons, the instruction of a father, And give attention that you may gain understanding, (NASB) As I look at this verse for the day I see the seriousness of our responsibilities as fathers to our children. Just as we are to look to our heavenly Father for His wisdom applied to our lives through His Word, our children look to us so that they too, in life, will  gain understanding .  How prepared are we as dads to reveal to our children the truths of life as revealed in the Bible. The first thing they see is our walk. We can say all we want, but unless our walk reflects what we say, our children will not take what we say seriously. At times they will test us and push us to the limit. We MUST stick to our convictions. We also must fulfill the promises we have made to our kids. If we told them we would be there for them at a game, or some performance, or activity, we better be there. If we are not, then the power of ...
