God Says in His Holy Word...

In view of the recent great sinful decision, made by the Supreme Court in this land:

O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.

 Jeremiah 22:29

4.  Have ye not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them
male and female, 5. And said, For this cause shall a man leave
father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? 

 6. Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh.

 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 

Matthew 19:4-6
 
 ... yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;
Romans 3:4a

 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west,
and His glory from the rising of the sun.
When the enemy shall come in like a flood,
the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.
Isaiah 59:19

...the Lamb shall overcome them: for He is Lord of lords, 
and King of kings: and they that are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 17:14b

In the Center of God's Will

There is no better place to be than in the center of God’s will 

– except in His presence. 
-Mateo

Day 2-Thanking God For His Protection- Awesome Power of God!

"A large E-F3 tornado (pictured above) with peak winds of 150 mph, 

ripped though the area last month, 30 mi. to the west of our home.
 It destroyed a house, and damaged another. This particular tornado was on the
ground for about 15.5 miles.

 We were shopping in a neighboring city at the time,
and the sky was very dark and stormy. We decided to head home a
different way, and praise God...Otherwise we would have headed into part of the 

storm! The hail here in the Midwest is known to reach the size of baseballs
(or larger), and tornado's and severe weather are not uncommon.
But, thankfully we know the One who is in control of the weather
and the storms! I am thankful for His protection that day, last month, 

and also for the previous month, when a tornado was spotted
 in the field behind our house! We experienced hail, high winds,
 and a power outage for almost 2 days... Day-2-Thanking God for His
 compassionate protection and care!"

Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling His word: Psalm 148:8

The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit
 the wicked: the LORD hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, 
and the clouds are the dust of His feet. Nahum 1:3 

  Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them praise
the name of the LORD: for His name alone is excellent; His glory is above
the earth and heaven. Psalm 148:12-13

Day 1-Giving Thanks

 I want to begin a series of 14 blog posts, on thankfulness-
I may not post a new one everyday, but just share on here as the Lord leads.
We have so much to thank Him for! And I specifically want to thank God
for everything He has given me in Christ...especially for His amazing love and grace!
 
In every thing give thanks: for this is the 
will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
  1 Thessalonians 5:18

(Day 1)
 Thanking God for my friend's and family!

Friends are like the warm blue sea, 

They splash laughter into your eyes. 

Karen Reynolds

A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: 

and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. 

Proverbs 18:24

Magnify the Lord

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together. 

 Psalm 34:3

And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon His name, 

 declare His doings among the people, make mention that His name is exalted. 

Isaiah 12:4

Redeeming the Time

 

Treasure every moment that you have! 

And treasure it more because you spent it for Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.

And remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is history.

 Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the present!

Spend your time wisely!

To talk with God, no breath is lost-talk on! 

To walk with God, no strength is lost-walk on!

To wait on God, no time is lost-wait on!

-Unknown

For since the beginning of the world men have not heard,

 nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen,

 O God, beside Thee, what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him.

Isaiah 64:4
