Walking in the light

YOU ARE ALL SONS OF THE LIGHT AND SONS OF THE DAY. WE DO NOT BELONG TO THE NIGHT OR THE DARKNESS. 1 THESSALONIANS 5:5 *NIV
The word light in the Bible refers to being a child of God. Darkness or night refers to being evil, for a child of darkness belongs to satan. Thus we are children of the light, for it is written, THIS IS THE MESSAGE THAT WE HAVE HEARD FROM HIM AND DECLARE TO YOU; GOD IS LIGHT. 1 JOHN 1:5 and THE LORD IS GOD, AND HE HAS MADE HIS LIGHT SHINE UPON US. PSALM 118:27
Now when we walk in that glorious light we become cleansed from all of our sins. For it is written, IF WE WALK IN THE LIGHT, AS HE IS IN THE LIGHT, WE HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER, AND THE BLOOD OF JESUS, HIS SON, PURIFIES US FROM ALL SIN. 1 JOHN 1:7
So, let God light your pathway through this life, for as a Child of God, YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. Therefore LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD DEEDS AND PRAISE YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. Amen MATTHEW 5:14-16
Have a wonderful day.

AND DO NOT LEAD US INTO TEMPTATION, BUT DELIVER US FROM THE EVIL ONE. FOR YOURS IS THE KINGDOM AND THE POWER AND THE GLORY FOREVER. AMEN. MATTHEW 6:13 *NKJV
We all face temptations in this life at times so; BE SOBER, BE VIGILANT; BECAUSE YOUR ADVERSARY THE DEVIL WALKS ABOUT LIKE A ROARING LION, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR. 1 PETER 5:8
After all satan knows that; EACH ONE IS TEMPTED WHEN HE IS DRAWN AWAY BY HIS OWN DESIRES AND ENTICED. ( JAMES 1:14 ) and that is one of his favorite tricks!
Therefore; MY SON, IF SINNERS ENTICE YOU, DO NOT CONSENT. PROVERBS 1:10 Instead; WATCH AND PRAY, LEST YOU ENTER INTO TEMPTATION. THE SPIRIT INDEED IS WILLING, BUT THE FLESH IS WEAK. MARK 14:38
Also remember that; NO TEMPTATION HAS OVER-TAKEN YOU EXCEPT SUCH IS COMMON TO MAN; BUT GOD IS FAITHFUL, WHO WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO BE TEMPTED BEYOND WHAT YOU ARE ABLE, BUT WITH THE TEMPTATION WILL ALSO MAKE THE WAY OF ESCAPE, THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO BEAR IT. 1 CORINTHIANS 10:13
So, the next time you are tempted do not give in, instead; SUBMIT TO GOD. RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU. JAMES 4:7
NOW TO HIM WHO IS ABLE TO KEEP YOU FROM STUMBLING, AND TO PRESENT YOU FAULTLESS BEFORE THE PRESENCE OF HIS GLORY WITH EXCEEDING JOY, TO GOD OUR SAVIOR, WHO ALONE IS WISE, BE GLORY AND MAJESTY, DOMINION AND POWER, BOTH NOW AND FOREVER. AMEN JUDE 24-25

Have a great day! God loves you!
Trust in God rather than in a man

THE LORD IS FAR FROM THE WICKED, BUT HE HEARS THE PRAYERS OF THE RIGHTEOUS. PROVERBS 15:29 *NKJV
We may pray that God will handle a problem for us, or to fulfill a dream we have, while never letting it go for Him to handle. We instead take it back and try to handle it on our own.
We may then even put all of our trust in another to solve it for us as well. Now it is written; IT IS BETTER TO TRUST IN THE LORD THAN TO PUT CONFIDENCE IN MAN. PSALM 118:8
So the next time that you ask God to handle something for you, leave it in God’s capable hands, and; REST IN THE LORD, AND WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM. PSALM 37:7
Do not pull it back again and try to handle it without Him.
God is always ready to help!
Have a great day.
He keeps us in all our ways.

THE STEPS OF A GOOD MAN ARE ORDERED BY THE LORD, AND HE DELIGHTS IN HIS WAY. THOUGH HE FALL, HE SHALL NOT BE UTTERLY CAST DOWN; FOR THE LORD UPHOLDS HIM WITH HIS HAND. PSALM 37:23-24 *NKJV
Now when we first learned to walk, we often fell down, but did we stay down? NO, we reached out to the extended hand of our mother or father, who helped us back on our feet. This happened often until we finally learned to walk on our own.
We can learn to walk with our Heavenly Father’s helping hand the very same way! For then when we fall, we can reach out to God through prayer, and accept His merciful helping hand as well! After all it is written; THE LORD LIFTS UP THE HUMBLE; HE CASTS THE WICKED DOWN TO THE GROUND. PSALM 147:6
Also written; HE SHALL GIVE HIS ANGELS CHARGE OVER YOU, TO KEEP YOU IN ALL YOUR WAYS. IN THEIR HANDS THEY SHALL BEAR YOU UP, LEST YOU DASH YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE. PSALM 91:11-12
So, walk with God everyday and you will find; THE LORD YOUR GOD IN YOUR MIDST, HE WILL REJOICE OVER YOU WITH GLADNESS, HE WILL QUIET YOU WITH HIS LOVE, HE WILL REJOICE OVER YOU WITH SINGING. ZEPHANIAH 3:17
Now my friend, have a great day knowing that the loving hand of God is always there ready to help you, no matter what you may face! Amen.
Cast your cares on the LORD

Jesus said; “COME TO ME, ALL YOU WHO ARE WEARY AND BURDENED, AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU AND LEARN FROM ME, FOR I AM GENTLE AND HUMBLE IN HEART, AND YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. FOR MY YOKE IS EASY AND MY BURDEN IS LIGHT.” MATTHEW 11:28-30 *NIV
As you may/already know, it is hard to find any rest with so many trials, tribulations, conflicts, and burdens in our lives today. However when we follow Jesus, He will provide us with rest and make our burdens lighter. For; THE LORD UPHOLDS ALL THOSE WHO FALL AND LIFTS UP ALL WHO ARE BOWED DOWN. PSALM 145:14
So when you feel stressed; CAST YOUR CARES ON THE LORD AND HE WILL SUSTAIN YOU; HE WILL NEVER LET THE RIGHTEOUS FALL. PSALM 55:22 . After all; GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH, AN EVER-PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE. PSALM 46:1
Also remember that; BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO PERSEVERES UNDER TRIAL, BECAUSE WHEN HE HAS STOOD THE TEST, HE WILL RECEIVE THE CROWN OF LIFE THAT GOD HAS PROMISED TO THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. JAMES 1:12
Therefore; PRAISE BE TO THE GOD AND FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER OF COMPASSION AND THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT, WHO COMFORTS US IN ALL OUR TROUBLES, SO THAT WE CAN COMFORT THOSE IN ANY TROUBLE WITH THE COMFORT WE OURSELVES HAVE RECEIVED FROM GOD. Amen. 2 CORINTHIANS 1:3-4
Now, have a wonderful day that is filled with “Peace,” and SMILE for after all God Loves You!
