What Can I Believe


We can believe that Jesus Christ is Lord. We can believe He came to earth to save us; save us from all sin and eternal death. These should be our foremost beliefs. But, you may be saying; “I know, but what can I believe regarding His healing of my disease?” Jesus died not only for our sins, but also for our infirmities. The Bible tells us so; (Psalm 103:2, 3) “…Forget not all His benefits: who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases.” So then you say; “I know all that! What I want to know is; am I going to be healed of my diabetes, or my cancer?” or whatever else might be troubling you. We can’t know the mind of God. I know this sounds like an escape clause or an excuse for not answering your very serious concern specifically, but it isn’t intended to be. You understand we cannot know the will of God -- He alone determines our coming and our going; our rising up and our sitting down.

What we can understand and believe is; He is our God! We can believe He loves you without measure! I know that He does! He is aware of everything about you, how you feel, and what are your fears, and what is hurting you now. God doesn’t promise us life without difficulties; we will have difficulties. There are many other forces at work in our world. Satan would have us believe we have no hope and that God has left us alone. Satan is a liar! I cast out this evil thinking in your life right now, in the mighty name of Jesus! You can believe and pray He will be with you in all your tribulations, helping you to survive this imperfect world. Our God is a God of miracles! He can heal us instantaneously or He may perfect our healing over a longer period of time. We must trust Him, having all faith that He is in control of our welfare.

In (Jeremiah 29:11); which is one of my most favorite Scriptures, we read what our Lord has said; “For I know the thoughts I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you seek me with all of your heart.” This is so very true! And, I do believe what He says here with all my heart! I am convinced that the fulfillment of our wellness is centered in our faith in Jesus Christ! Just calling out His precious name, JESUS, aloud has tremendous power!

Yes, continue to follow your doctor’s instructions! Yes, continue to take your doctor’s recommended medications for the wellness plan he or she has set for you. But, “forget not all His (God’s) benefits: who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases!” Your faith in Jesus, your trust in Him, and your prayers to Him WILL work miracles for you!

Our Walk With God

“Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I guide you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered, when you run, you will not stumble” (Proverbs 4:10-12). Our lives are built upon our first step, and   then proceed step after step after step thereafter. As infants we learn to crawl, then stand and eventually to walk to the waiting hands of our proud fathers and mothers. Our walking skills can develop into running skills; some of us will go on to run races, some will even run long distance marathons, but it all begins first with our desire to walk. The Lord tells us to listen to what He says to us through His Holy Spirit and the years of our lives will be many; as we go through life, our steps will not be hampered; when we hurry through our impossible daily schedules and race through our lives, we will not stumble.   All successful runners have a professional trainer, our trainer is none less

Day before yesterday, I cooked up a pot of "killer" chili. Yeah, I know it's not winter and chili is better in the winter. I like chili all-year long. Well, my chili fixin' was killer alright, it tore our stomachs up something terrible. Yesterday, I was miserable all day. I was so wanting my day to be over - I wanted a new day without stomach problems. Every day, God allows us a "do-over" and we get a new chance at living. Today, thankfully, I am feeling over my chili malady and I (am) starting over. I have a new opportunity today to seek more of Jesus. First, I will pray for my family and friends that they see more of Jesus and that their lives and their today is better than yesterday. And then, I am praying our nation stops this political division and hatred that is sickening our people. God help us to love you more and realize without You we are lost. You are our new day and we praise You for it.

Sanctity Given

A person can’t accomplish sanctification by themselves no matter how much he or she studies the Word or desires this quality. It is not even something God would produce in you as something you would contemplate yourself. Instead it is the Holy Spirit, His Spirit of holiness alone, who can or will communicate His holiness and continue to renew the same in you. By our complete faith we become partakers of His holiness. It is Jesus who sanctifies us for God.  (1 Corinthians 1:30) says, “But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God – and righteousness and sanctification and redemption – that, as it is written, 'He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.'” We seek to surrender ourselves to God by faith, so He may enable us to live life moment by moment. By His Spirit, we are to believe the Lord will, lead us into, and keep us in, this life of holiness and consecration to God’s service. We choose to live in obedience of faith, listening to God’s voice – the
