TO THEM GOD CHOSE TO MAKE KNOWN HOW GREAT AMONG THE GENTILES ARE THE RICHES OF THE GLORY OF THIS MYSTERY, WHICH IS CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY. COLOSSIANS 1:27
If I have nothing to gain in this world I know well that, with Christ in me I have a hope of glory.This song ministers to me always. I listen to it everyday. I will like you to also listen and read the lyrics.
In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on him
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
Have a wonderful day.
Keep thy words soft and sweet.

A MAN HAS JOY BY THE ANSWER OF HIS MOUTH, AND A WORD SPOKEN IN DUE SEASON, HOW GOOD IT IS! PROVERBS 15:23 *NKJV
Words are very powerful for they can either build up, or tear down others. Also foolish words can bring about our own destruction, for it is written; IN THE MOUTH OF A FOOL IS A ROD OF PRIDE, BUT THE LIPS OF THE WISE WILL PRESERVE THEM. PROVERBS 14:3
We are also warned about gossiping for it is written; IN ALL LABOR THERE IS PROFIT, BUT IDLE CHATTER LEADS ONLY TO POVERTY. PROVERBS 14:23 For after all; A WHOLESOME TONGUE IS A TREE OF LIFE, BUT PERVERSENESS IN IT BREAKS THE SPIRIT. PROVERBS 15:4
Further, God has instructed us to encourage one another, for it is written; LET US CONSIDER ONE ANOTHER IN ORDER TO STIR UP LOVE, AND GOOD WORKS, NOT FORSAKING THE ASSEMBLING OF OURSELVES TOGETHER, AS IS THE MANNER OF SOME, BUT EXHORTING ONE ANOTHER, AND SO MUCH THE MORE. HEBREWS 10:24-25
So, remember to keep the words you speak soft and sweet. For you never know from day to day which words you’ll have to eat! Amen.

IT IS WRITTEN, MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD. MATTHEW 4:4 * NKJV
Just as we need food to sustain our human body, we need spiritual food to sustain our Spiritual body as well! Now a good meal should consist of vitamins and minerals, and perhaps a dessert. So today we will look at Biblical Vitamins for our Spiritual well being.
When Anxious, take vitamin “A” ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THOSE WHO LOVE WHO LOVE GOD, TO THOSE WHO ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE. ROMANS 8:28
When Crushed, take vitamin “C” CAST ALL YOUR CARES UPON HIM, FOR HE CARES FOR YOU. 1 PETER 5:7
When Depressed, take vitamin “D” DRAW NEAR TO GOD, AND HE WILL DRAW NEAR TO YOU. JAMES 4:8
When Empty, take vitamin “E” ENTER INTO HIS GATES WITH THANKSGIVING, AND INTO HIS COURTS WITH PRAISE. BE THANKFUL TO HIM, AND BLESS HIS NAME. PSALM 100:4
When Fearful, take vitamin “F” FEAR NOT, FOR I AM WITH YOU, DO NOT BE AFRAID, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. ISAIAH 41:10
When Greedy, take vitamin “G” GIVE, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU; GOOD MEASURE, PRESSED DOWN, SHAKEN TOGETHER, AND RUNNING OVER WILL BE PUT INTO YOUR LAP. FOR WITH THE SAME MEASURE THAT YOU USE, IT WILL BE MEASURED BACK TO YOU. LUKE 6:38
When Insecure, take vitamin “I” I CAN DO ALL THING THROUGH HIM WHO STRENGTHENS ME. PHILIPPIANS 4:13
When Lonely, take vitamin “L” LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, EVEN TO THE END OF THE AGE. MATTHEW 28:20
When Restless, take vitamin “R” REST IN THE LORD, AND WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM. PSALM 37:7
For Dessert, WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE! JOHN 3:15
Now, it is my hope that you have enjoyed this meal of Spiritual food. Remember that you may have all you want, for it is guaranteed to be non-fattening!
The Lord is my refuge, I fear not.

THE LORD IS MY LIGHT AND MY SALVATION–WHOM SHALL I FEAR? THE LORD IS THE STRONGHOLD OF MY LIFE—OF WHOM SHALL I BE AFRAID? PSALM 27:1 *NIV
Do not let the events of the World today, or the in the future, cause you any fear. For it is written: THE LORD HIMSELF GOES BEFORE YOU AND WILL BE WITH YOU; HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU. DO NOT BE AFRAID; DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED. DEUTERONOMY 31:8
After all, IF YOU MAKE THE MOST HIGH YOUR DWELLING—EVEN THE LORD, WHO IS YOUR REFUGE—THEN NO HARM WILL BEFALL YOU, NO DISASTER WILL COME NEAR YOUR TENT. FOR HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU TO GUARD YOU IN ALL YOUR WAYS; THEY WILL LIFT YOU UP IN THEIR HANDS, SO THAT YOU DO NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE. PSALM 91:9-12
Therefore, HAVE NO FEAR OF SUDDEN DISASTER OR THE RUIN THAT OVERTAKES THE WICKED. For; THE LORD’S CURSE IS ON THE HOUSE OF THE WICKED, BUT HE BLESSES THE HOME OF THE RIGHTEOUS. PROVERBS 3:25,33
So, BE STRONG AND COURAGEOUS. DO NOT BE AFRAID OR TERRIFIED BECAUSE OF THEM, FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD GOES WITH YOU! Amen. DEUTERONOMY 31:6
Have a wonderful day.

“BEFORE I FORMED YOU IN THE WOMB I KNEW YOU, BEFORE YOU WERE BORN I SET YOU APART.” JEREMIAH 1:5 *NIV
Do you ever feel far from God? Ever feel that He doesn’t know, or even care, that you exist? Well, God knows each one of us intimately! For just as He told the Prophet Jeremiah above, He also knew us and formed each one of us in the womb as well!
The PSALMIST knew this when he wrote, O LORD, YOU HAVE SEARCHED ME AND YOU KNOW ME. YOU KNOW WHEN I SIT AND WHEN I RISE; YOU PERCEIVE MY THOUGHTS FROM AFAR. YOU DISCERN MY GOING OUT AND MY LYING DOWN; YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH ALL MY WAYS. BEFORE A WORD IS ON MY TONGUE YOU KNOW IT COMPLETELY. PSALM 139:1-3
After all, YOU CREATED MY INMOST BEING; YOU KNIT ME TOGETHER IN MY MOTHER’S WOMB. I PRAISE YOU BECAUSE I AM FEARFULLY AND WONDERFULLY MADE YOUR WORKS ARE WONDERFUL. ALL THE DAYS ORDAINED FOR ME WERE WRITTEN IN YOUR BOOK BEFORE ONE OF THEM CAME TO BE. PSALM 139:13,14 & 16
Yes indeed, God knows us Intimately and Loves each of us as well! SO WE KNOW AND RELY ON THE LOVE GOD HAS FOR US. GOD IS LOVE. WHOEVER LIVES IN LOVE LIVES IN GOD, AND GOD IN HIM. 1 JOHN 4:16
Therefore the next time that you feel far from God and think that He doesn’t know you exist, remember these verses. For after all your Heavenly Father truly is your closest living relative, and He Loves You very much indeed! Amen!
So, have a wonderful day remembering that God is indeed your Heavenly Father. He loves you so much and always want you so close to him.
