He His Always There For You. Do You Need Him?
Feb 27th
SO THE KING GAVE THE ORDER, AND THEY BROUGHT DANIEL AND THREW HIM INTO THE LION’S DEN.* DANIEL 6:16 *NIV*
The Aramaic word for “DEN” means pit, thus implying that it was underground.
There are times that we may feel just like poor Daniel did when he was thrown into the lion’s den. However, just like Daniel our faith will come to our rescue as well!
After all; HE WHO DWELLS IN THE SHELTER OF THE MOST HIGH WILL REST IN THE SHADOW OF THE ALMIGHTY. I WILL SAY OF THE LORD, HE IS MY REFUGE AND MY FORTRESS, MY GOD IN WHOM I TRUST. PSALM 91:1-2
Further God has said; “FEAR NOT, FOR I HAVE REDEEMED YOU; I HAVE CALLED YOU BY NAME; YOU ARE MINE.” ISAIAH 43:1-2
God has also stated; “DO NOT FEAR, FOR I AM WITH YOU; DO NOT BE DISMAYED, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. I WILL STRENGTHEN YOU AND HELP YOU; I WILL UPHOLD YOU WITH MY RIGHTEOUS RIGHT HAND.” ISAIAH 41:10
Therefore; “CALL UPON ME IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE; I WILL DELIVER YOU, AND YOU WILL HONOR ME.” PSALM 50:15
So when you feel like Daniel always; TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING; IN ALL YOUR WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, AND HE WILL MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT. PROVERBS 3:5-6
Now have a wonderful day, knowing that you are in good company with God by your side!
Amen.
Why not forget your complaint and SMILE!
Feb 19th
We all have days when we feel overwhelmed with life’s many problems. However complaining about them doesn’t change a thing! So why not smile instead of complain, for it is said; “Smile and the whole World smiles with you, frown and you frown alone!” IF I SAY, ‘I WILL FORGET MY COMPLAINT, I WILL CHANGE MY EXPRESSION, AND SMILE.’ JOB 9:27 * NIV
Now what better way to find a smile than to laugh with joy. So enjoy today’s word, and let it be said;
“OUR MOUTHS WERE FILLED WITH LAUGHTER, OUR TONGUES WITH SONGS OF JOY.” For; THE LORD HAS DONE GREAT THINGS FOR US, AND WE ARE FILLED WITH JOY.” ( PSALM 126:2-3 )
Have Mercy!

BLESSED IS HE WHOSE TRANSGRESSIONS ARE FORGIVEN, WHOSE SINS ARE COVERED. BLESSED IS THE MAN WHOSE SIN THE LORD DOES NOT COUNT AGAINST HIM AND IN WHOSE SPIRIT IS NO DECEIT. PSALM 32:1-2 *NIV
Often people feel that they have committed a sin in the past that can not be forgiven. A sin that is so horrible that God could never forgiven them. This is simply not true! For; IF WE CONFESS OUR SINS, HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST AND WILL FORGIVE US OUR SINS AND PURIFY US FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS. 1 JOHN 1:9
After all Jesus even forgave a thief on the cross, did He not? LUKE 23:40-43 . This is because when we confess our sins and ask for forgiveness, our past sins are cleansed from the Book of Life by the Precious Blood of our Savior Jesus Christ! For; IN HIM WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RICHES OF GOD’S GRACE THAT HE LAVISHED ON US WITH ALL WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING. EPHESIANS 1:7-8
Therefore never feel that a sin you have committed in the past can not be forgiven, that simply is not true! For our Savior paid the price for the sin debt for the whole World on the cross! So, it can be said; WHO IS A GOD LIKE YOU, WHO PARDONS SIN AND FORGIVES THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE REMNANT OF HIS INHERITANCE? YOU DO NOT STAY ANGRY FOREVER BUT DELIGHT TO SHOW MERCY. YOU WILL AGAIN HAVE COMPASSION ON US; YOU WILL TREAD OUR SINS UNDERFOOT AND HURL ALL OUR INIQUITIES INTO THE DEPTHS OF THE SEA. Amen. MICAH 7:18-19
