The Word Of God

Isaiah 55:10-12
For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
And do not return there,
But water the earth,
And make it bring forth and bud,
That it may give seed to the sower
And bread to the eater,
So shall God’s word be that goes forth from...[my mouth]
It shall not return to...[me] void,
But it shall accomplish what He pleases,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which He sent it.
For I shall go out with joy,
And be led out with peace [completeness/shalom in spirit, soul and body].

This psalm is one of my favorite psalms, because it encourages me to speak the Word of God into my life and circumstances, and then I am encouraged by the Word to let God handle the situation and just believe. When you believe in the Providence of God, you can speak His Word into the atmosphere, for the atmosphere responds to His word, especially to words of love, confidence, and completeness (shalom). It is also true that negative words can affect your environment as well.

That is why the Lord directs us to be positive, and to trust in Him and His power, His ability to bring light into dark places, to heal wounds, to inspire loving gestures and situations of peace; to give birth to new revelations and boldness of heart. Everyone feels afraid sometimes, but it is our obligation not to allow those feelings of fear to overcome our belief in His Word.

We must become rooted and grounded in the Word of God, and that starts with acknowledging that we cannot live this life without Him. Some people rely on their own efforts, they believe they have plenty of money and power, and the world regards them because they also believe in money and power; but these things are just illusions, quickly snatched away when someone is faced with situation that renders them powerless.

What happens when people are exposed to a crisis that cannot be easily fixed with a few dollars and some flattering words? What do people do when there is a 'storm' outside their window and the wind and the rain and the hail is falling fiercely? Now, there are many different types of storms that blow into your life; it could be a financial 'storm', where you lose your job or all of your money, it could be a relationship 'storm', when you lose the love of your life by death or divorce, it could be a health issue, you or someone you know is ill or dying. You could be lonely, or depressed, feeling rejected by others who don't care about you or understand who you are and what you are going through.

What do people do when they find everything they have been working for cannot save them from the crazy and senseless issues of life? What if you are one of the lucky ones that has never suffered any serious losses; you have your family, and money in the bank, a good job, with houses and cars.., then you may not be able to relate to what everyone else is going through. What could possibly hurt you?

No one will be able to save themselves from the issues that are quickly manifesting into our world on a daily basis. We no longer have the option to just sit back and let the world's problems solve themselves, because the world's problems are knocking upon the door of our homes, and our lives are about to be changed forever.

When you stop trusting in your own resources, and begin to trust in God's favor and provision, you will begin to see the world's situation as it really is; we are on the brink of a revolution, a major change in our lives, that can bring revelation and peace, or fear and destruction. We don't have a choice in what is coming on the earth; we have been warned by God in His Word about these times, but we don't have to face them alone. We are not powerless, if we believe in the provision that God has supplied to protect us and to help us, the Lord Jesus Christ.

He has risen and is coming back soon to deal with the ravages and results of the world's sins; He is ready to lift the veil of darkness and evil that has always been a part of this world's atmosphere every since the fall of adam and eve. The devil's time of rule and reign on the earth is coming to a close, and he knows it. He is stirring up the bad elements in the world, 'to raise hell on earth', to cause death and destruction on a worldwide scale, to hurt as many people as he can, because he knows his time is almost up. Those who believe in Jesus Christ with all of their hearts and minds, will be preserved for Him for the coming manifestation of the kingdom of God. Those who do not believe, the god fakers and the god haters, will find that their empty religious rituals, and cold intellectualism will not save them from war, disease, famine, and death.

Please people, I do not make these statements lightly, for there is a reason why I am writing this, because the Lord wants you to know what is coming and that you have a way to avoid the judgment that is soon coming upon the earth. He loves you and cares about you; no one on earth or in heaven will ever love you more. He has shown His grace and mercy to mankind by allowing us to decide within our hearts who we will serve, Him or ourselves. He created us and He has always wanted us to be an important part of His creation. He wants a relationship with you, He wants to love you with a love that is beyond all human understanding. He gave His one and only begotten son, Jesus Christ, to die upon the cross at Calvary as a sacrifice for our sins, to redeem us with His Blood. No greater sacrifice has ever been made, and nothing else will ever take its place in regards to our salvation.

If you find yourself in a serious situation with no real resolution in sight, that is when it is time to start praying and reading the Word of God; let the Word of God become apart of your life and your consciousness, for it will save you in your time of need. Reading the word on a daily basis helps you to defeat those fearful thoughts and anxieties, releasing you into 'the faith zone'. When you are in the zone, every problem gets handled with peace and joy, and you have the patience to let the Lord take care of it according to His will.

His Word has mended broken hearts, healed bodies, inspired faith and joy, manifested in signs, miracles, and wonders, and has rendered the non believers into silence. If the Word of God can do all of that, than surely it can help you in your time of need. Just ask Him to help you to believe and understand His Word, and He will give you the revelation that you need to keep on believing and to persevere. There is no other gift I know to give anyone, than the gift of proclaiming His Love and Word to you, for I cannot solve all your problems, but He can.

If you would like to know what it is like to live in His love and abide in His word, then please repeat this prayer:

Prayer of Salvation

Lord,

I repent for trying to be master of my own life. I change my mind about who I want to be in charge of my life. I turn from my useless and unproductive thoughts that I am the center of my universe and choose to believe in the living God who created everything, including me (Acts 14:15). I have lived without a purpose but now I will live to hear and obey You, God (Jn. 5:19, 20,30).

I confess with my lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. I believe that God so loved the world He sent His only Son Jesus to shed His blood to wash away the barrier of sin (Jn. 3:16)

I receive You, Jesus as MY Lord and Savior (Jn. 1:11,12).

I welcome You, Holy Spirit, into my life to rescue and empower me and to restore me to intimacy with my heavenly Father (Acts 2:38).

If you just confessed this prayer, you are saved! I welcome you into the family my (brother/sister) I pray for peace, joy, and happiness in your life as you allow the Lord to love you and bless you and give you assurance of everlasting life with Him forever and ever......PRAISE GOD!

May the Lord keep you and Bless you this day....Amen
