Good Morning,

Brethren, if you become discouraged in this life and are experiencing heaviness through manifold temptations, take it to the Lord in prayer; let your requests be made known to God.  If you are in the midst of troubles, He will revive you.  Do not let your heart be troubled, but try to increase your belief in God and Christ.  Concentrate on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely and of good report, for in these things is virtue and praise. Philippians 4.6-8. and you will have the peace of God in your heart, a peace that surpasses all understanding.

Good Morning,

Paul and the other Apostles, endured much suffering for the cause of Christ.  But their sufferings helped them to be content in whatever circumstances they found themselves in, even in prison, and when we look closely at their teachings, this is a large part of the Christians life.  Take time today to look at all the blessings God showers on us through His word and try harder to make this day and every day, a day of rejoicing just as God meant it to be.

Dear disciple,

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not for I am an unchanging God whose love, mercy, and grace will always be with you who remain. faithful to Me.  I am your refuge and strength, a very present help in time of danger. Proverbs 46.1.  When all else fails, when friends and family turn against you, turn to Me and I will give you rest.  Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. My yoke is easy and My burden is light. See Matthew 11.28.  When everyone else turns you away, Jesus will take you in.  Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all else will be added unto you. Matthew 6.33.

Good Morning,

Only those who endure temptation when he is tried will receive the promised crown of life which has been promised to those who love God and His beloved Son, Jesus the Christ.  But as the world goes, disciples sometimes like to say that it is God who tempts them.  But this is just a lie for it is written that God cannot be tempted with evil, nor does He tempt anyone.  Do we not understand that we are tempted when we withdraw from God by our own lusts; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life, and when lust is conceived it brings sin; and sin when it is finished brings us spiritual death? WE as disciples must be careful not to err when we are tempted and tried.  My thoughts from James 12:16.  Thanks for reading.

Good Morning,

TRUST in the Lord with all your heart, and LEAN NOT on your own understanding; in all your ways ACKNOWLEDGE Him, and He shall DIRECT your paths.  DO NOT be WISE in your own eyes.  FEAR the Lord and DEPART FROM EVIL.  It will be health to your flesh and strength to your bones.  HONOR the Lord with your POSSESSIONS and with the FIRSTFRUITS of your increase. Proverbs 3.5-9.  LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind.  SEEK First His Kingdom, and HIS righteousness. Matthew 22.38, Matthew 6.33.  STOP ANGERING THE LORD.  He is your CREATOR, SUSTAINER of your life and YOUR SALVATION.
