PEP TALK FROM GOD

O LORD, no one but You can help powerless me against the mighty enemy!

Help me, Lord, for I trust in You alone.

It is in Your name that I have come up against this battle.

Sharon, I will stay with you.

Whenever you seek Me, you will find Me.

Whenever you are are in trouble, turn to Me!

Seek Me out, and you will find Me.

Be strong and courageous, for your work will be rewarded.

My eyes are searching the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Me.

You are powerful and mighty - no one can stand against You!

I can cry out to You to save me, and You will hear me and rescue me.

O God, won't You stop them?

I am powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack me.

I don't know what to do, but I'm looking to You for help.

Sharon, do not be afraid!

Don't be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but Mine.

Tomorrow, march out against them.

But you will not even need to fight.

Take your position, then stand still and watch My victory!

Do not be afraid or discouraged.

Go out against them, for I am with you!

Believe in Me, the LORD your God, and you will be able to stand firm.

I stand in Your Power, Lord - resolute, determined, strong.

I have not abandoned You.

You are with me.

You are my Leader.

You are my God.

I bow in humble adoration and proclaim:

GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD - FOR HIS FAITHFUL LOVE ENDURES FOREVER!

(From 2 Chronicles 20)

Hi Sharon -

Wow! Thank you.

I posted a new topic today and then our Lord me led here to your blog.

You expressed, "Sharon, do not be afraid!
Don't be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but Mine.
Tomorrow, march out against them.

"But you will not even need to fight.
Take your position, then stand still and watch My victory!

"Do not be afraid or discouraged.
Go out against them, for I am with you!

"Believe in Me, the LORD your God, and you will be able to stand firm."

Those words were dynamite in my soul today, Sharon! Yes - indeed - holy dynamite deposited by our Lord. THANK YOU, HOLY FATHER GOD!

Much of what you expressed, Sharon, PRECISELY addressed some issues in my life that happened last night AND early this a.m.

This post firmly and powerfully confirmed what our Lord had shared with me. Again, Wow!

Also, some of what you have said here is similar to my post this a.m. When I came here and noticed that, I was again so grateful to our Lord for how He attends to us, His sheep. My praises go forth to our loving precious Lord!

Thank you so much, Sharon, for this dynamite post!

Yes and Amen as we all learn to encourage ourselves in the Lord...as we laugh at the enemy, as God reveals the army behind us and we stand!! The battle belongs to the Lord.

Thanks for the encouragement.

"But you will not even need to fight.
Take your position, then stand still and watch My victory"

That's such a comforting thought when you're just too bone tired to find, isn't it? Sometimes, that's how I feel, and I really need the pep talk.

Hi Sharon,
Praise God for His pep talk that strengthens you (and us) as we read His words to you.

Praise God that you will not need to fight. The battle is His and He has already won.

Will be praying for you as I meditate on His words of power.

Blessings to you, Sharon,

Janis

I hope that each one of you know that these words are spoken to YOUR hearts, too! God is the Perfect Encourager - because His words hold true and strong.

I so appreciated each of your individual comments. I am so blessed to be surrounded by an army of mighty warriors - every day I feel your presence alongside me as we go out to meet our daily battles. What a victory knowing that God fights for us - and that we wage battle in a war that is already won.

We just need to lean on His power and strength.

Blessings to each of you - His faithful love endures forever!

GOD BLESS!

MY WORD FOR 2016

GRATEFUL

Grateful: feeling or showing thanks to someone for some helpful act; appreciative of benefits received; warmly or deeply thankful; indebted; beholden.

Word origin: 1550's, "pleasing to the mind," also "full of gratitude," from obsolete adj. grate "agreeable, thankful," from Latin gratus "pleasing" – derived from the same word origin as the word "grace."

The trick to changing your behavior is to become more thankful.

The practice of gratitude involves a focus on the present moment, on appreciating your life as it is today and what has made it so.

Let us begin an eternal quest to express in new and creative ways our thanks to God.

So I'm breathing in Your grace,

And I'm breathing out Your praise.

Let our prayers be the overflow of a grateful heart to God.

Three steps in prayer:

PRAISE – praise, reverence, worship, adoration, and awe for who God is and what He does

ASK – honest, earnest, and intense requests

THANK YOU – always end with thanksgiving for everything

Pulpit commentary:

In everything give thanks.

In every circumstance – in joy and in sorrow; for everything – for prosperity and for adversity; in every place – in the house of God and on the bed of sickness.

Christians should not only be engaged in constant prayer, but in constant thanksgiving.

For this – this thankful spirit – is the will of God, His desire.

God by the gift of his Son has laid us under the obligation of perpetual thanksgiving. Our whole lives ought to be one continued thank-offering for all the blessings of redemption.

Gill's Exposition:

Thanks are to be given to him for all things…

For all temporal good things;

for our beings, the preservation of them;

for food and raiment, and all the mercies of life;

for the means of grace, the word and ordinances, and the ministers of the Gospel;

for spiritual blessings, for electing, redeeming, regenerating, adopting, pardoning, justifying, and persevering grace:

for a meetness for heaven, a right unto it, and a good hope of it;

and especially for Jesus Christ, for such a…Saviour, and advocate with the Father, as he is; and for life, peace, joy, comfort, righteousness, and salvation in him.

Thanks should be given to God in every circumstance of life; in adversity, as Job did; when not in so comfortable and agreeable a frame of soul as to be wished for…even under the temptations of Satan…since the grace of God is sufficient to bear up under them, and deliver out of them.

[Give thanks] in afflictions of every kind, since they are all for good – temporal, or spiritual, or eternal.

WHAT IS LOVE?

Love is when you are missing some of your teeth but you're not afraid to smile because you know your friends will still love you even though some of you is missing.

By Emma K. - Age 6

"Out of the mouth of babes..."

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.

Anonymous

When you are uncertain, it helps to have someone remind you what is true – someone who knows you well, who sees you, and keeps track of you – not just your body but your soul.
