It doesn’t matter how dark or deadly our circumstances may be. There is enough life in God’s Word to totally overwhelm all the death that the world, the devil or circumstances can ever bring us. John 17:17 says “Thy Word is truth,” and that truth goes beyond facts. Truth is absolute, it doesn’t yield or change; thus, facts are subject to truth.

Everything we see is temporal and subject to change. So, put your faith in the unseen eternal realm. The things which are eternal are not subject to change.

It may not sound like a big deal, but shortcut thinking can keep us dissatisfied our whole lives - always wanting more, never truly enjoying today!

According to Psalm 103:20 the Word of God is what puts those angels in action.

Good Morning! "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 ~ Don't ever evaluate what God is doing by the looks of things, or merely by what we see around us. It is faith, not appearances, that makes miracles happen. It's the only real evidence that we need! Be strong in faith, giving glory to God for we are justified by faith and have the peace of God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Good Morning! “I am the Lord, I change not.” Malachi 3:6 ~ The world’s order of things is unsure and indefinite. Desperate words of uncertainty are crying out from television, radio, online and the media. Everything around us seems to be in turmoil. God doesn’t have any double standards. He doesn’t say one thing today and something else tomorrow. He is the same yesterday, today and forever! When we make the Word of God our final authority, we are stable when everything and everyone else around us give way. When we let what God says settle the issues of life, confident when others are confused, and peaceful when others are under pressure, we will be overcomers when others are overcome! Live by faith, not by sight! Fearlessly commit yourself to the authority of God’s Word and there won’t be anything in this unstable world that can steal our security or joy from us! Psalm 9:1-10, 16:7-11, 51:12, 91; Romans 15:13 ~ Keep your JOY, Stay Strong & Have a God filled Day!

Philippians 4:12,13 ~ You and I have the mind of Christ, and we can handle things the way He did. Right thinking arms us for battle, with a winning attitude! Glorify God at all times, even in the challenging times. Draw your strength from our Heavenly Father and walk in victory! Luke 4:1-13; 1 Peter 2:21-23; Ephesians 4:1-2; Philippians 2:15~ Let’s all Shine in this hour, show the world Who reigns in us & Have a God filled Day!

Good Morning! ".. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working]."

Keep in constant communion with Him: "For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God), and His ears are attentive to their prayer.." 1 Peter 3:12 ~ Prayer is not a religious form with no power. It is to be effective and accurate and bring results! God watches over His Word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:12). For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing and effective].. Hebrews 4:12, 12:1 ~ Don’t Give Up, Stay in Faith & Have a God filled Day!
