What Can I Believe

I am so sorry folks for the late entry of today's blog message. I got up very early this morning with a full day's worth of priorities and just forgot to post last night's message. Again, I am so sorry to mess with your schedules and readership. I hope you will forgive me? Here is my intended message for today; Tuesday, March 10, 2012.



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!

APPROVED

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). (2 Timothy 2:14-26) instructs those whom He knows are His ; and don’t we aspire to be recognized as such, to be approved by God? He tells us to avoid godless chatter (gossip), because we will become more and more ungodly. God warns that what we say can affect others, even destroying the faith of some. Heaven forbid we should say anything to do such damage!   Approved we flee the evil desires of youth we pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace. We don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments because we know they only produce quarrels. As God’s servants we mustn’t quarrel; instead we must be kind, able to teach, and be not resentful.   Approved we are to gently instruct those who oppose us, hoping God will grant them repentance and lead them to the knowledge of His truth.

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you. I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

Walk Of Faith

I wonder, do you think we miss God’s purpose for our lives because we are waiting to learn more of what God has planned for us? Truth is; God isn’t required to lay it all out for us. All He must do if He has a plan for our lives is to show us how and then enable us to do it. It seems when we don’t know all the particulars, life is too perplexing. We think, “ but I need to know just what God wants me to do.” Abram (later known as Abraham) probably had thoughts just like this. God asked Abram to go somewhere he wasn’t familiar with and he most likely thought of asking God, Lord, must I go somewhere I don’t know, can’t I just stay here in Haran? However, God’s plan for Abram was far greater than anything Abram could ever imagine. Our personal feelings, vision, and human reasoning will always get in the way of our walk of faith . God teaches us to have faith in Him by placing us in positions where our feelings, vision, and common knowledge don’t work for us. Haven’t you ex...
