In God We Trust

Lack of trust: a major deterrent to healing

Trusting God, our heavenly Father, can be difficult if our earthly parents and authority figures have proven untrustworthy to us. All forms of abuse, physical, mental and sexual, result in shame and trust issues.

John 15:19 says, “I have chosen you out of the world.” This means God chose us and it is important to live our lives as His chosen people. Jesus bore our sins and rejections on the cross, and we don not have to live with earthly rejections.

Forgiveness is the process of freeing yourself from the anger that has been negatively affecting you and your relationships. Forgiveness is essential to freedom and living a spiritual existence. Forgiveness is a choice we make.

Control your thoughts. Romans 12:2 says, “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is – His good, pleasing and perfect will.

Faith is like a muscle – the more you use it, the stronger it becomes. Faith is the process of saying yes to God and knowing that you are never alone, that things will work out. Faith is the catalyst that drives divine healing and comfort.

I remember singing a song in church with the words; “Trust and obey for there’s no other way…” The words of this song give us such good advice, for surely trusting our heavenly
Father is the way to forgiveness which producing our healing.

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...

THIS IS A SPECIAL POSTING. PLEASE READ!

In addition to my daily message today, this is something very special I believe the Lord wants me to post right now! Help Me Overcome My Unbelief! As a Christian, I believe God loves me and wants the best for me. Certainly, in His Word (Psalm 103:3 NIV) the Psalmist wrote; Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits – who forgives all your (my) sins and heals all your (my) diseases, who redeems your (my) life from the pit…. I know this, really I do! Still, there are times when I don’t see God actually doing what I expect Him to do; to save me from my trouble; to provide me with what I want; and to provide the healing release I expect. Before I became a Christian I really had a problem with faith, much less be able to cling to any promises God made to me; regardless of whether I was a Christian or not! Therefore, I understand how we can have moments of unbelief, or we can just flat out not trust what God has promised us. This is Satan at work, big time !  “Get...
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.
