AND JESUS SAID; "DO NOT LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED. TRUST IN GOD; TRUST ALSO IN ME. ( JOHN 14:1 *NIV )

When troubles come into your life, turn them over to God to handle, for it is written; THE LORD IS A REFUGE FOR THE OPPRESSED, A STRONGHOLD IN TIMES OF TROUBLE.
THOSE WHO KNOW YOUR NAME WILL TRUST IN YOU FOR YOU, LORD , HAVE NEVER FORSAKEN THOSE WHO SEEK YOU. ( PSALM 9:9-10 )

After all; THE SALVATION OF THE RIGHTEOUS COMES FROM THE LORD ; HE IS THEIR STRONGHOLD IN TIME OF TROUBLE. THE LORD HELPS THEM AND DELIVERS THEM; HE DELIVERS THEM FROM THE WICKED AND SAVES THEM BECAUSE THEY TAKE REFUGE IN HIM.
( PSALM 37:39-40 )

King David experienced this for he wrote; THOUGH I WALK IN THE MIDST OF TROUBLE, YOU PRESERVE MY LIFE; YOU STRETCH OUT YOUR HAND AGAINST THE ANGER OF MY FOES WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND YOU SAVE ME. ( Psalm 138:7 )

So even when; WE ARE HARD PRESSED ON EVERY SIDE, BUT NOT CRUSHED; PERPLEXED, BUT NOT IN DESPAIR; PERSECUTED, BUT NOT ABANDONED; STRUCK DOWN, BUT NOT DESTROYED. WHEN WE TRUST THE LORD WITH ALL OUR HEART. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 4:8-9 )

SO DO NOT THROW AWAY YOUR CONFIDENCE; IT WILL BE RICHLY REWARDED. YOU NEED TO PERSEVERE SO THAT WHEN YOU HAVE DONE THE WILL OF GOD, YOU WILL
RECEIVE WHAT HE HAS PROMISED. ( HEBREWS 10:35-36 )

Amen

Now have a Wonderful Weekend and may God Bless You!

RETURN TO THE LORD YOUR GOD, FOR HE IS
GRACIOUS AND COMPASSIONATE, SLOW TO
ANGER AND ABOUNDING IN LOVE.
( JOEL 2:13 *NIV )

There are times when our faith runs thin and we may even find ourselves walking far from God. When that happens, it is because we moved away from Him, not because He moved away from us.

Now if that happens to you remember it is written; BUT IF FROM THERE YOU SEEK THE LORD YOUR GOD, YOU WILL FIND HIM IF YOU LOOK FOR HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL.
( DEUTERONOMY 4:29 )

After all, our Heavenly Father is always there with open arms to welcome us back, and His love for us can never be shaken. For it is written; THOUGH THE MOUNTAINS BE SHAKEN AND THE HILLS BE REMOVED, YET MY UNFAILING LOVE FOR YOU WILL NOT BE SHAKEN NOR MY COVENANT OF PEACE BE REMOVED, "SAYS THE LORD, WHO HAS COMPASSION ON YOU.
( ISAIAH 54:10 )

So, if you ever find yourself walking far from God remember that your return trip back to Him starts with a prayer, and with all of your love. Then soon you will again be saying; WE LIVE BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT.
( 2 CORINTHIANS 5:7 ) and feeling that closeness to
God once again! Amen.

I WILL GIVE YOU A NEW HEART AND PUT A NEW
SPIRIT WITHIN YOU; I WILL TAKE THE HEART OF
STONE OUT OF YOUR FLESH AND GIVE YOU A HEART
OF FLESH. I WILL PUT MY SPIRIT WITHIN YOU AND
CAUSE YOU TO WALK IN MY STATUTES, AND YOU
WILL KEEP MY JUDGMENTS AND DO THEM.
( EZEKIEL 36:26-27 *NKJV )

Now this verse proves that GOD did the very first
heart transplant. In fact HE has been doing transplants for
thousands of years! Even better than that, the heart that
GOD gives to us is filled with the fruit of the spirit! And;
THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS LOVE, JOY, PEACE,
PATIENCE, KINDNESS, GOODNESS, FAITHFULNESS.,
GENTLENESS AND SELF-CONTROL.
( GALATIANS 5:22 )

Remember when you invited GOD into your life.
Think about how hard your life was before that day! Also
think about how your life has changed for the better since
then!

Now just in case you haven't received that new heart yet,
today would be a great day to ask GOD for it! No
appointment is needed, and HE won't leave you in the waiting
room for two hours, reading last year's magazines either!
By the way you won't need health Insurance to pay for it
because is a free gift from GOD as well.

So why not ask GOD for that new heart today, if you
haven't already? For HE has said; THEN I WILL
GIVE THEM ONE HEART, AND I WILL PUT A NEW SPIRIT
WITHIN THEM, AND TAKE THE STONY HEART OUT OF
THEIR FLESH, AND GIVE THEM A HEART OF FLESH, THAT
THEY MAY WALK IN MY STATUTES AND KEEP MY
JUDGMENTS AND DO THEM; AND THEY SHALL BE MY
PEOPLE, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD.
( EZEKIEL 11:19-20 )

Now, may you; GROW IN THE GRACE AND
KNOWLEDGE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST.
TO HIM BE GLORY BOTH NOW AND FOREVER! AMEN.

( 2 PETER 3:18 )
