Joy of the Lord: Tuesday truth

. . . the children of God are the only people who are really glad. We are glad inside and we are glad outside. Our gladness flows from the inside. God has filled us with joy unspeakable and full of glory. This is probably how Paul himself felt when he refers to being "beside ourselves" in the Lord. This joy in the Holy Ghost is beyond anything else. And this joy of the Lord is our strength.

Hemorrhoids 10/10 Monday meditation

I suffered for many years from piles [hemorrhoids], till my whole body was thoroughly weak; the blood used to gush from me. One day I got desperate and I took a bottle of oil and anointed myself. I said to the Lord, "Do what You want to, quickly." I was healed at that very moment. God wants us to have an activity of faith that dares to believe God. There is what seems like faith, an appearance of faith, but real faith believes God right to the end.

Yom Kippur : Friday faith

Yom Kippur begins at sundown Friday, October 7, and continues until sundown Saturday, October 8. The holiest day in the Jewish year, the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), is spent in fasting, prayer, and confession. This was one gracious day a year given by God that each individual could receive forgiveness. According to Jewish tradition, God inscribes each person's fate for the coming year into a book, the Book of Life, on Rosh Hashanah (Jewish New Year, Sept. 29 this year), and waits until Yom Kippur to "seal" the verdict. During the ten Days of Awe, a Jew tries to amend his or her behavior and seek forgiveness for wrongs done against God and against other human beings.


In Bible times the high priest entered the holy of holies to make atonement for the nation by sacrificing an animal (Lev. 23:26-32). Although Jesus was without sin, Yom Kippur would have been a holy day for Him, in which He no doubt grieved over the sins of the whole world.

Jesus has provided our atonement, “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…” (Rom. 3:23) and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Him.

On this Yom Kippur, confess your sins and pray that Jews who are seeking forgiveness would encounter Yeshua / Jesus as the Lamb of God who was sacrificed for the sins of the world.

Peace Multiplied 10/6 Thursday thoughts

Not only is grace multiplied to us through knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ, but peace also.  As we really know our God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent, we will have peace multiplied to us even in the multiplied lives of ten thousand Nebuchadnezzars.  It will be multiplied to us even though we are put into the den of lions, and we will live with joy in the midst of the whole thing. . .  All our victories are won before we go into the fight.  Prayer links us on to our lovely God, our abounding God, our multiplying God. Oh, I love Him!  He is so wonderful!

Realm of Grace 10/5 Wed. wisdom

Oh, what privileges are ours when we are born of God.  How marvelously He keeps us so that the wicked one touches us not.  I see a place in God where Satan dare not come.  Hidden in God.  And He invites us all to come and share this wonderful hidden place where our lives are hid with Christ in God, where we dwell in the secret place of the Most High and abide under the shadow of the Almighty.   God has this place for you in this blessed realm of grace.

God's Word is from everlasting to everlasting.  His Word cannot lie.  God's Word is true and when we rest in the fact of its truth, what mighty results we can get.

No end to blessing 10/3 Monday meditation

Yes, every person in the whole wide world who is saved by faith is blessed with faithful Abraham.  The promise which came to him because he believed God was that in him all the families of the earth should be blessed.  When we believe God there is no knowing where the blessing of our faith will end.
