Sing and Rejoice

Zechariah 2:10 "Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion! For behold, I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," says the Lord.

Yay! The Lord is coming. All the troubles, trials, and tears will be gone. He loves us and our confidence must be in Him. We live in a world full of sin and corruption. We have an enemy that longs to take us down to the pit of hell, but we don't have to be overtaken by satan or the world.
Our God is mighty to save us from evil!!! Our job is to surrender, submit, and obey. That's our calling until He comes for us. Let's run the race well. We can encourage and strengthen one another daily! May our unity be in Jesus Christ.

Psalm 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.

Refreshed

Do you need to be refreshed?

Acts 3:19 Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.

If you don't have Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we invite you to receive Jesus into your heart. There are three steps you can take to receive Jesus.

1. Recognize that you are a sinner

2. Repent from your sin. Repent means to turn away from your sin and turn to God

3. Receive Jesus into your heart. You can ask Him by saying a prayer. All prayer is, is talking to God like you would talk with a really good friend. Ask Him to live in your heart and He will come.


If you are already a believer and need to be refreshed Spend Time With The Lord!!!!

Peace

"These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." John 16:33 

The Lord promises us peace that the world can't give us. We have victory in Him. If we keep our eyes on heaven and not on things here on earth, we can rest in His peace. We are called to be in the world but not of the world. That can be hard if our eyes are not fixed on Him. He has overcome the world and will strengthen us in times of trouble!

Well Done Good and Faithful Servant

"As The Lord commanded Moses His servant, so Moses commanded Joshua, and so Joshua did. He left nothing undone of all that The Lord commanded Moses." Joshua 11:15

Have we done everything that The Lord has commanded us? Are we doing everything 
He has for us presently? What does our future hold? Will we complete what The Lord has for us?

"He held fast to The Lord; he did not depart from following Him, but kept His commandments, which The Lord had commanded Moses." 2 Kings 18:6

Wow! What a testimony for the believer. After a trial, suffering, or persecution, to be able to say that we held fast to The Lord, continued walking with Him, and kept His commandment through it!

"His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy or your lord.' Matthew 25:21

I want to hear these words from our Lord. I want to be faithful in the little things first, then see what He has for me next. We will enter into His joy, if we are faithful to what He has called us. What a promise! Rest in His love today and always, because His love endures forever!

Obedience or Sacrifice

"For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart- These, O God, You will not despise." Psalm 52:16-17

The Lord wants our brokenness ladies. He desires for us to be obedient over sacrifice. We have His word for direction and encouragement. We should be broken over our sin and walk in repentance.  Maybe we need to cry out to God for that brokenness. He can soften our hearts and bring brokenness in the areas where our hearts are hard because of sin. He loves us and desires for us to walk upright with Him!
