O Lord


God almighty, who is like You?

The title of this message, and the subhead, I have taken directly from (Psalm 89:8 NIV). I continue with this same verse, as it states; “You are mighty, O Lord, and Your faithfulness surrounds You.” Wow! What a beautiful Scripture this is! The psalmist, with all reverence, cries out to God recognizing just how awesome and powerful He is; and then proclaims there is not one who can compare to Him. Yet, with all His power and might, we understand God is surrounded by His faithfulness and mercy. Thank God, He alone is God. So, where are we? Well, we are in the palm of His big hand, which He opens constantly to observe how we are doing. As the Scripture says; His faithfulness surrounds Him so are we also surrounded with His faithfulness then. Our understanding of this reality should bring us great comfort, and it does!

Satan is defeated in our understanding of who God is, and by our unswerving faith in what His Word reveals to us. God’s Word is always relevant, and applicable to what we will ever experience in our lives. There is nothing in this world, nothing in our lives that God’s love and faithfulness can not mend. Do you worry? Are you frightened? Concerned? Are you feeling all alone? In Jesus’ name, I declare here and now, these disturbing mind states to leave you. You are a child of almighty God and He is your shield! You can believe in His love and His faithfulness to heal you.

Please listen to how (Psalm 91) encourages you and me: “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. / I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge, my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Nothing else need be said, God loves you and He will protect you. Selah.

Be of good faith, God loves you He will be with you in your trouble, He will deliver you. He has promised He will (Psalm 91:15.)

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 ...

Breaking The Silence

The house is quiet, the dogs are asleep, and my wife is gone for the morning running her errands. The lonely silence gives our home a feeling of emptiness that seems to cry for noise or activity of some kind. What do I do to fill this void? I could turn on the TV – not much on this time of day though. I know; I’ll put on a CD. How about a little "Stones.", ZZ Top or perhaps some Van Halen; all good driving music, but what makes us feel like we have to fill the silence of our homes with noise or some other distraction? Is it because we fear loneliness? We miss a tremendous opportunity to have an intimate relationship with God at times like I just mentioned if we choose earthly substitutes instead of a Spiritual involvement with our Creator. God created us to be involved with Him, to have a yearning for His awesome presence. No music, TV or hobby can truly fill the voids we feel when we are alone. Only He can satisfy our need. Yet, don’t we try to keep busy and fill the airwa...
