AUGUST 16 – STOP

08/16               2 Timothy 1:7

7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.

STOP

Stop and let the Lord handle your problem.  Anytime you worry stop right then and let the Lord have that problem.  Jesus is able to work effectively through the events and activities of your life.  Surrender to Jesus and let Him have your life and He will fix it. 

AUGUST 15 – KEEP ON

08/15               2 Corinthians 12:10

10That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 

KEEP ON

Keep on moving forward.  Whatever life gives you rest assured that the Lord Jesus will make the end result work for good in your life.  When things turn grim and life is almost too much for you to bear just keep on moving forward for soon life will turn into a blessing.  We are eternal creatures and while it may seem devastating today it will be okay because Jesus is Lord and we live in eternity. 

 

 

AUGUST 14 – CONCERNED

08/14               Isaiah 40:29

29 He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.

AUGUST 13 – GIVES

08/13               Philippians 4:13

AUGUST 11 – ETERNAL

08/11               Psalm 73:26

26 My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.

ETERNAL

We are first and foremost spiritual creatures.  Our life is playing out before our eyes but also before the eyes of the Lord and He sees the eternality He has given us.  We do not see our spiritual side even though we have glimpses of it from time to time.  It is difficult for us to grasp eternity but we are indeed eternal beings and we belong to the Lord.  He will help us and will never leave us.  Jesus is Lord. 

 

 

AUGUST 10 – NOW

NOW

Jesus gives us the strength we need right now.  It is His gift to us to undergird our life and to help us move forward in the midst of the chaos of life.  He is never tardy.  He does not forget about us.  Jesus loves you and will help you to live a full and grace filled life.

AUGUST 7 – SINNER

08/07               Psalm 14:1

1 Only fools say in their hearts, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, and their actions are evil; not one of them does good! 

SINNER

Each one of us and every one of us sin.  We are all without exception sinners.  Jesus is the only perfect one.  The Cross had the final say.  Jesus died on the Cross and paid the price for our sin.  By His stripes we are healed.  The Lord saves us and enables us to live a life of relationship with the Father.  Praise the Lord for His wondrous salvation.
