BE SOBER, BE VIGILANT; BECAUSE YOUR ADVERSARY THE DEVIL WALKS ABOUT LIKE A ROARING LION, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR. ( 1 PETER 5:8 *NKJV )
As you know we all face temptations from time to time. When we are tempted it is important to remember that they come from satan, and not God. For it is written: LET NO ONE SAY WHEN HE IS TEMPTED, ‘I AM TEMPTED BY GOD.’; FOR GOD CANNOT BE TEMPTED BY EVIL, NOR DOES HE HIMSELF TEMPT ANYONE. BUT EACH ONE IS TEMPTED WHEN HE IS DRAWN AWAY BY HIS OWN DESIRES AND ENTICED. ( JAMES 1:13-14 )
So when satan tries to tempt you SUBMIT TO GOD. RESIST THE DEVIL AND HE WILL FLEE FROM YOU. ( JAMES 4:7 ) After all our Savior Jesus Christ gave us power over the devil when He said, I HAVE GIVEN YOU AUTHORITY TO TRAMPLE ON SERPENTS AND SCORPIONS, AND OVER ALL THE POWER OF THE ENEMY, AND NOTHING SHALL BY ANY MEANS HURT YOU. ( LUKE 10:19 )
FINALLY MY BROTHERN, BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND IN THE POWER OF HIS MIGHT. PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD, THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND AGAINST THE WILES OF THE DEVIL. ( EPHESIANS 6:10-11 ) Then you will be able to take names and kick serpent, when satan tries to tempt you! Amen.
God’s Letter to You

ALL SCRIPTURE IS GIVEN BY INSPIRATION OF GOD, AND IS PROFITABLE FOR DOCTRINE, FOR REPROOF, FOR CORRECTION, FOR INSTRUCTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS, THAT THE MAN OF GOD MAY BE COMPLETE, THOROUGHLY EQUIPPED FOR EVERY GOOD WORK. ( 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17 *NKJV )
The Apostle Paul makes it clear in those verses that God is the author of the Bible! The Apostle Peter further stated that, NO PROPHECY OF SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION, FOR PROPHECY NEVER CAME BY THE WILL OF MAN, BUT HOLY MEN OF GOD SPOKE AS THEY WERE MOVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. ( 2 PETER 1:20-21 ) After all only God Himself could have possibly written a book containing prophesies, which have all come true except those regarding the End Time!
Further, it ministers to us no matter what is happening in our lives. FOR THE WORD OF GOD IS LIVING AND POWERFUL, AND SHARPER THAN ANY TWO-EDGED SWORD. ( HEBREWS 4:12 ) Therefore why not try to read your Bible on a daily basis, for it is indeed God’s Letter to You!
So remember, IT IS WRITTEN, MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD. ( MATTHEW 4:4 ) Therefore, as JESUS taught us we are happy to say, GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. ( MATTHEW 6:11 ) So why not enjoy a heaping helping by reading your Bible?
Amen.
Counting your blessings

in In His Word
FOR YOU, O LORD, WILL BLESS THE RIGHTEOUS; WITH FAVOR. YOU WILL SURROUND HIM AS WITH A SHIELD. ( PSALM 5:12 *NKJV )
In this busy World of ours we often forget to stop and count all of our blessings. If we are not careful we may even take them for granted!
So why not stop and count your blessings today, for when you count them you will find that there are many indeed! Also you will find that counting your blessings is a great way to begin you day!
I will like to share a poem with you, and it is my hope that you will enjoy it!
Your Blessings Are So Many, Lord!
Your blessings are so many, Lord,
To count them one by one
Would take much longer than a day
That has just now begun!
You fill each day with miracles
From dawn to setting sun.
Each night You hear a million prayers
When day’s work is done.
You keep this old world spinning
As seasons come and go,
And each one is a masterpiece
That stets our hearts aglow.
You fill the earth with beauty, Lord,
With flowers, shrubs and trees,
And we marvel at Your rainbows
And butterflies and bees.
Your words still give us comfort
For Your promises are true.
Your blessings are so many, Lord,
In everything we do!
- Poet, Clay Harrison
Have a wonderful day, and: MAY GOD BE GRACIOUS TO YOU AND BLESS YOU AND MAKE HIS FACE SHINE UPON YOU. Amen. ( PSALM 67:1 )
Just as a shepherd will protect his sheep
0588 days
MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE, AND I KNOW THEM, AND THEY FOLLOW ME. AND I GIVE THEM ETERNAL LIFE, AND THEY SHALL NEVER PERISH; NEITHER SHALL ANYONE SNATCH THEM OUT OF MY HAND. ( JOHN 10:27-28 *NKJV )
Now just as a shepherd will protect his sheep, Jesus will protect us from Eternal harm. Even though we may suffer here on Earth from the devil’s temptations, satan cannot harm our souls or take away our Eternal Life with God in Heaven.
While there are many reasons to be fearful here on this Earth: BECAUSE YOUR ADVERSARY THE DEVIL WALKS ABOUT LIKE A ROARING LION, SEEKING WHOM HE MAY DEVOUR. ( 1 PETER 5:8 ) It is through Jesus that we are given Eternal safety. For: THIS IS THE TESTIMONY: THAT GOD HAS GIVEN US ETERNAL LIFE, AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON. HE WHO HAS THE SON HAS LIFE; HE WHO DOES NOT HAVE THE SON OF GOD DOES NOT HAVE LIFE. ( 1 JOHN 5:11-12 )
So my friend, always remember: THE LORD ALMIGHTY IS WITH US; THE GOD OF JACOB IS OUR FORTRESS. ( PSALM 46:7 ) Therefore: WHY SHOULD I FEAR WHEN EVIL DAYS COME, WHEN WICKED DECEIVERS SURROUND ME? ( PSALM 49:5 ) For: 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 )
Now, may: THE GRACE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, AND THE LOVE OF GOD, AND THE COMMUNION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT BE WITH YOU. AMEN. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 13:14 )
The Power Of Prayer
0591 days
IS ANY ONE OF YOU IN TROUBLE? HE SHOULD PRAY. IS ANYONE HAPPY? LET HIM SING SONGS OF PRAISE. IS ANY ONE OF YOU SICK? HE SHOULD CALL THE ELDERS OF THE CHURCH TO PRAY OVER HIM AND ANOINT HIM WITH OIL IN THE NAME OF THE LORD. FOR THE PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN IS POWERFUL AND EFFECTIVE. ( JAMES 5:13; 14 & 16 *NIV )
One of the most powerful things on this Earth is “The Power Of Prayer!” For, THE EYES OF THE LORD ARE ON THE RIGHTEOUS AND HIS EARS ARE ATTENTIVE TO THEIR CRY; THE RIGHTEOUS CRY OUT, AND THE LORD HEARS THEM; HE DELIVERS THEM FROM ALL THEIR TROUBLES. ( PSALM 34:15 & 17 ) So let us not forget to speak to God in prayer today, and thank Him for all He has done for each of us! Let us also pray for those who are suffering, or are going through trials and tribulations in their lives! Let us pray for each other as well, and ask God to fill us with His Love, Hope, and Faith!
Therefore, I KNEEL BEFORE THE FATHER, I PRAY THAT OUT OF HIS GLORIOUS RICHES HE MAY STRENGTHEN YOU WITH POWER THROUGH HIS SPIRIT IN YOUR INNER BEING, SO THAT CHRIST MAY DWELL IN YOUR HEARTS THROUGH FAITH AND I PRAY THAT YOU, BEING ROOTED AND ESTABLISHED IN LOVE, MAY HAVE POWER, WITH ALL THE SAINTS, TO GRASP HOW WIDE AND LONG AND HIGH AND DEEP IS THE LOVE OF CHRIST, AND TO KNOW THIS LOVE THAT SURPASSES KNOWLEDGE –THAT YOU MAY BE FILLED TO THE MEASURE OF ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD. Amen. ( EPHESIANS 3:14; 16; 18-19 )
Have a great day, and remember that God smiles every time He thinks about you!
