It’s Wednesday! Let Jesus Lead The Way!

Do You Feel Trapped?

April 25, 2023

Sometimes in life we feel trapped. Maybe it is an illness, boring job or even with your spouse or some destructive habit you cannot quit.

The Bible tells us there is an answer. Jesus will set you free.

He will not necessarily remove the illness or give you a new Job, but He will bring you peace and comfort in the situation.

A marriage that is falling apart. He can bring it back together if both partners put Him first.

And that bad habit, give it to Him and He will remove the desire.

The key to any problem is putting Jesus first in your life. It sounds simple but it takes a life of commitment to Him. He loves you and wants to set you free.

What Do You Need?

April 24, 2023

What do you need? Strength, healing, money, job, spouse, answer to prayer? Everyone has a need of some kind.

Even when everything is going well we still have needs in our lives, the good news is that God can supply all our needs if we will trust Him with our problems.

The key to this verse is Jesus. Only through Jesus can all of our needs be met.

God is Good!

April 21, 2023
34 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; For his mercy endureth for ever. (‭‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭16‬‬:‭34‬ ‭KJV‬‬)

Can you honestly say God is good? God is good all the time has become a popular expression among Christians.

But, do we really mean it? Can we say God is good when tragedy comes? When we loose a loved one. Maybe a lost job, our home or wayward children.

GOD IS GOOD! We can look back on some of these heartaches and see that He was there through it all.

There was a time when I had a hard time thinking about God’s goodness, when my son died, but looking back I realize that God used that in my life to strengthen me. He was there to lift me up in my darkest hour.

God is there for you. In good times and bad we can honestly say, God is good.

Are You. Child of God?

Are You Going To Church?

April 16, 2023

Maybe you cannot go to church because of illness, your job or family responsibilities. God understands.

But, you may have stopped going during Covid and never went back. Disagreement with a church member or hurt feelings. Think about it. Are those really valid reasons for staying home?

We do have many ways to get church services on TV, radio or YouTube. But does that really satisfy?

We miss fellowship with other Christians. We miss the opportunity to see people baptized after they have been saved. Sometimes we may miss seeing the Holy Spirit working in the hearts of others. We also miss the opportunity to help someone else who may need us to be their friend.

Church is important. Let’s go!

Is Jesus Your Life Preserver?

April 12, 2023
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9

If you were drowning and could not swim, what would you need? Someone to throw you a life preserver.

If we have not accepted Jesus as our Savior, we are drowning in our sin.

Jesus is ready and able to save you! You must believe that He died, was buried and on the third day arose from the dead.

He loves you and is patiently waiting for you. Accept Him today.

God’s Word is Pure!

Is Anything Too Hard For GOD?

March 31, 2023

This question was answered in the Bible when Sarah was told in her old age she was to have a child. Sarah laughed.

Sarah did have a child when she was 90 years old and her husband was 100. The child was named Isaac, which means laughter.

Is anything to hard for God? No. The story of Sarah should give us hope and assurance when we are going through things in our lives that seem impossible. Nothing is impossible with God.

Having Trouble With Sin?

March 29, 2023

The way to overcome sin: First you must accept Jesus as your Savior. Then read and memorize God’s Word.

This verse tells us if we hide God’s Word in our hearts we will not sin against God.

All our sins are forgotten if we have trusted in Jesus death, burial and resurrection.

It is important for us to daily read the Bible and take time to communicate with God through prayer.

If we are born again, God has also done something wonderful for us! He sent the Holy Spirit to dwell in us and be our teacher, guide and He will lead us in the right path.
