JOY COMES IN THE MORNING

Standard

         I was born and abusive child. My life was full of disappointment, and nothing ever when right for me. I was save through Jesus Christ. My relationship with Christ has grown to be awesome, he is my DADDY! God has brought me through every thing. Being Save did not make things easy, in fact it was worst. Killing your Flash to stay in the presence of God is the worst thing you could experience. This road was stuff, standing in the gap for others, and praying for others all the time. I would cry to all the time asking God to do this or that for me. The prayers for the ministry he chose for me to do for him. I still have yet to see it come to the peak, God has shown to me in his word. So many people I prayed for there prayers as been answer over and over again. I love God there’s no doubt in my mind, that he won’t do what I have request unto him. All I have been doing for the people of God. It is still wonderful to see people being bless in the Jesus name. I have been pretty low for lots of years, growing in the word of God, while doing ministry.
      Well my life have taken a Shift. All the years crying out to God when I’m going to have JOY. I have been doing what you say, and yet, I have know joy. I was looking in all the wrong places for the joy that only God can GIVE. A week ago I got a phone call from my daughter, telling me she was going to have a baby. I was a little upset, because I will be traveling to Kenya soon. I was saying O Lord what I’m going to do I don’t have time to raise another grandchild. I have been planing this for six months. so after I said’ Lord you got this. everything is going to work out. so I was excited what was going to come, and just started telling God thank you. Now here comes the JOY! My daughters calls me, and says, mom I’m spotting. I tell her  to go to the doctors to make sure all is well. I’m praying to God please Jesus don’t let her lose the baby. I get a call hour later, my heart is racing cause I don’t know what to expect. She says to me, are you sitting down, I said yes. With these JOYFUL WORDS my daughter said to me, mom I’m having Twins. I was RUNNING all over the house. The first doctors visit, they didn’t see the other baby. All my life I really wanted to feel unspeakable Joy, and this day I will never ever forget our God as bless me indeed. He gave me double blessings. God said from now on it will be double for your troubles. I’m full of so much joy. nothing in this world will make  me fill what I felt when my daughter told me she was having TWINS. This joy I have never had. JOY COMES IN THE MORNING!!!

PSALM 66:I-2

Make A joyful noise unto God, all the earth

sing forth the honor and glory of His name;

make His praise glorious!

PSALM 23

Standard

When we allow God, our shepherd, to guide us, we have contentment. when we choose to sin and go our way. However, we cannot blame God for the environment we create for ourselves. Our shepherd knows the green meadows and peaceful streams that will restore us. We will reach these places only by following him obediently. Rebelling against the shepherd’s leading is actually rebelling against our own best interests. we must remember this next time we are tempted to go our own way rather than the shepherd’s way.

Psalms to bring us into Gods presence……

Psalms about goodness……..

Psalms of praise……..

Psalms of repentance and forgiveness……

Psalms for times of trouble……….

Psalms of confidence and trust…….

 

PSALM 27

Standard

Fear is a dark shadow that envelops us and ultimately imprisons us within ourselves. Everyone has been a prisoner of fear at one time or another fear or rejection, misunderstanding, uncertainty, sickness, or even death. but we can conquer fear by trusting in the lord, who brings salvation. if we want to dispel the darkness of fear, let us remember with the psalm writer that the Lord is my light and salvation.

We often run to God when we experience difficulties. But David sought God’s guiding presence EVERY DAY. When troubles came his way, he was already in God’s presence and prepare to handle any test. Believers can call to God for help at any time, but how shortsighted to call on God only when troubles come. Many of our problems could be avoided or handled far more easily by seeking God’s help and direction beforehand.

YOU ARE CHOSEN

Standard

We all want people to like us and approve of us. However, our desire for approval can truly be met only by receiving God’s acceptance and approval of us. God told Jeremiah that before He formed him in the womb of his mother, He knew him and approved of him as His chosen instrument. when God says He knows us, He means He really knows us. This is a knowing that leaves nothing out.

i am amazed that God chose me. I do not think I would have chose myself. But God’s tool chest has some interesting things in it. He works with what the world would reject as useless and throw away as trash.

Yes, God chooses and uses what the world would reject! Was Jeremiah perfect? Absolutely not! Jeremiah was fearful, and God had to correct him about fear of people. Jeremiah was afraid of being rejected and disapproved of. God correct him about speaking negatively and encouraged him to go forward and not give up.

Jeremiah :1-8

Be not afraid of them for I am with you to deliver you, says the Lord.

HAVE A BLESS DAY!

LOOKING BACK ON 2010

Standard

Apr. 23,2010

Thank you God for giving me the love that I needed when no one else would. I’m happy that I brought myself this Bible, so that  can learn more about Jesus, our lord and savior.

Apr. 28,2010

Lord I thank you for waking me up this morning, this is the day the lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it. Thank you lord for your grace and mercies, Thank you lord for your many Blessings. Thank you for showing me how to love everyone in spite of how I feel.

May 2,2010

I had to ask God to cleans my soul today, and renew a right spirit in me. God I thank you I can come to you for grace and mercy. It is so wonderful that I can surrender every hurt and disappointment in Jesus name. I need more of you all the time. In church today I felt the burden of your people, there was no praise and worship.

It does not matter how we are feeling about life, God wants our Thanks and our Praise. I love to Worship God, that’s when I get to love on Him, and we share our expression for love to each other. Because He lives in me. God is the light of my life, He is life, without God,  I will surely die. Trust in the Lord He is the Golden key for joy in life.

IS THERE A NICER WAY TO SAY THAT?

Standard

Conflict is part of everyone’s life. How we deal with conflict is important. The more I have studied the Word, the more I have understood why Jesus is called the lion of the tribe of Judah. It means that He had a strength that was characteristic to a lion that caused Him to deal with things in a majestic way, and yet He’s also called the Lamb of God.

The characteristics of the lion are totally different from those of the lamb,yet the lord is recognized as having both qualities. Some gave us a picture of a lion and a lamb lying down together, and it reminds me that I’m supposed to be a good, godly mixture of both qualities. I never had any trouble with the lion to communicate with someone. especially concerning confrontational issues. we should first pray for God’s grace and mercy to anoint us as lion-hearted lambs. Then we should wait until we have balance in our perspective and approach.

Hasty words spoken without giving any thought to them often cause tremendous trouble. Ecclesiastes 5:2 says,  Be not rash with your mouth, and let not your heart be hasty to utter a word before God…… I believe we should not only be careful with our words to people, but also with our thoughts to God. There have been many times when I have thought out how would handle a situation, and God has let me know that is not how He wants me to handle it. We should form a habit of asking the Lord what He would do before we do any speaking or planning about confrontation.

PEACE IS GAIN THROUGH RIGHTEOUSNESS

Standard

Christians have righteousness, peace, and joy available to them through the Holy Spirit. The satisfaction that we are all looking for is found inside of us through knowing who we are in Christ. Happiness come from being able to get up in the morning liking yourself and going to bed at night liking yourself, without living under a cloud of guilt and condemnation. Peace is the reward of righteousness not of money. You can have you can have all kinds of things, but if you don’t have peace, you won’t have joy. People need right relationships more than they need money. If people are going to spend their lives climbing the ladder of success, they need to be sure their ladder is lending against the right building. It is sad when people spend their lives working to acquire things at expenses of their families, only to get to that top position and find it is one of the loneliest places they could me. It is tragic to spend your life chasing something you didn’t want after all.

First Timothy 6:17 says, As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be proud and arrogant and contemptuous of others, nor set their hopes on uncertain riches, but on God, Who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything, for our enjoyment.

FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD

Standard

I know that God hears my prayers, My faith is very strong in the lord, and he is a God that will answer your prayers. we sometimes expect that things will fall out of the sky, but that is not how God answer prayers. Be not always content where you are, because God has more for you than you can ever imagine. Faith is what it is, believing those things that are not. You must believe what ever you are asking God to do, having faith will make it happen. Now God will keep His promise, he is not a man, he will not lie. I know that my faith as been strong in the lord. Everything I have, has came from my faith walk. You must pray to God, and while you are praying, believe that the mountain can be move else where. At times it seems like what you’ve been praying for will never come to past. But it will. Keep knocking and keep seeking and the door shall be open. Prayer is the Golden Key for your present help from the lord. Without a prayer life, you are a dead man walking! Without faith you can not please God. I live my life totally depending on the lord. What may seem like a life time, is only one day to the lord. He said the our latter days will be greater. That means you will not miss out on one thing. Praise God! Always believe with your whole heart that God will take care of you. I want to bless you with these words of wisdom. Seek first the kingdom of God and all things will be added unto you. You must pray, and keep on praying, and keep on praying. God will step in and do it all for you. I want to please God with all my heart. Never put anyone before God. not your husband, not your children, not anyone. God is a jealous God.  Stay focus and rest assure that god loves you and nothing at can harm you. There is peace in the valley, let joy be in your hearts. your breakthrough is coming. My God Bless you and Keep you.

PEOPLE AREN’T PERFECT

Standard

Having unrealistic expectation of people sets us up to be disappointed. Am I saying that we should not be expectant? Of course not! we should expect the best out of people, but at the same time we must remember they are human being with imperfections.

When Jesus’ disciples disappointed Him, He was not devastated because He already knew and fully understood human nature, as we learn in John 2:25. Jesus expected His disciples to do their best, but He knew that even their best would still be imperfect.

I have come to realize that we tend to look for the perfect spouse, prefect friend, prefect job, perfect neighborhood, perfect church, and the truth is, it does not exist! As long as we are in earthly bodies we will manifest imperfection. God must have known that to be true. because He gave us instructions in His Word on how to handle people who irritate us or disappoint.

People are not perfect, and to expect them to be flawless is frustrating for everyone involved. We must learn to be generous with mercy and to sow seeds of mercy so we can reap mercy when when we need it.

We all like to plan ahead for our lives and have people cooperate with us. we want situation to go exactly the way we plan, but that rarely happens. This isn’t negative; it is truth. As believers, we have the power of the Holy Spirit to help us do difficult things and deal with human imperfections— not to make our lives so easy that we never need to use faith.

I urge you to expect good things to happen in your life. I also urge you to be realistic and realize that we all have to deal with things that are unpleasant and people who are disagreeable. Your attitude in these trying situations greatly affects your enjoyment of life. You can be realistic, walk in truth and still have a positive attitude as you deal with your own imperfections and those of people around you.

PATIENCE

Standard

We…rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character, hope

Romans 5:3-4

Don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed.

Jame 1:4 The Message

These things I plan I won’t happen right away. Slowly. steadily, surely, the

time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, do not

despair, for these things will surely come to pass, just be patient! They will

not be overdue a single day! says the Lord

Habakkuk 2:3
