THOSE WHO WAIT

-

Psalms 40:1,3-4

I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry.

He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. 

Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord.

Oh, the joys of those who trust the Lord, who have no confidence in the proud or in those who worship idols.


The testimony of those who trust in the Lord is that after a little while they have cause to sing songs of victory and thanksgiving.


All through scriptures we see these songs being sung because of the Lord's deliverance of His people.


The greatest of all the songs of celebration was that which was sang, not by man, but by the Heavenly hosts, when the final source of deliverance was revealed - Christ was born:


Luke 2:13-14

Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others—the armies of heaven—praising God and saying,

“Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”


Praise comes from those who understand, for at the time the Heavenly hosts were praising the Heavenly Father on behalf of man, man was not aware of what was being done for him.


This year we will have songs of praise on our lips for the Lord will visit us with His victories. All we need do is to wait on Him.


Waiting on the Lord is not idling away, NO, but listening and obeying until that which we wait on Him for, comes to pass. We do not allow the gimmicks of the enemy or the mirage of the world get the better of us.


Remember the prophesy:


Isaiah 40:31 (message)

But those who wait upon God get fresh strength. They spread their wings and soar like eagles, They run and don't get tired, they walk and don't lag behind.


Glory to God in the highest.


He calls us blessed.


Love

MAINTAIN A GODLY MARRIAGE

-
Judges 13:2-3,6,10 In those days a man named Manoah from the tribe of Dan lived in the town of Zorah. His wife was unable to become pregnant, and they had no children. The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah’s wife and said, “Even though you have been unable to have children, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son. The woman ran and told her husband, “A man of God appeared to me! He looked like one of God’s angels, terrifying to see. I didn’t ask where he was from, and he didn’t tell me his name. So she quickly ran and told her husband, “The man who appeared to me the other day is here again!” We live in times when the institution of marriage is being destroyed from in and out of the church. Divorce rate is high and many are in a marriage but are not happy therein. What is the problem? God has been taken out of the equation. How? Jesus said: Matthew 19:8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had origina

Remember: God is in control.

As we go through the 11th month of this year of accomplishment, let us be reminded. When it seems to hurt so much, or it all looks quiet and alone, when it appears not to work out. Please don't give up, God is still in control Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. My dear it is not about how you feel, and not about what it seems, it is about what He Has promised and He who promised is sure to keep His Word. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:12 " Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." God is in control and His plans for you are good. He has already done it. Romans 4:21 " and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform." Have a

NEEDLESS BATTLES

-
Judges 12:1-4 Then the people of Ephraim mobilized an army and crossed over the Jordan River to Zaphon. They sent this message to Jephthah: “Why didn’t you call for us to help you fight against the Ammonites? We are going to burn down your house with you in it!” Jephthah replied, “I summoned you at the beginning of the dispute, but you refused to come! You failed to help us in our struggle against Ammon. So when I realized you weren’t coming, I risked my life and went to battle without you, and the Lord gave me victory over the Ammonites. So why have you now come to fight me?” The people of Ephraim responded, “You men of Gilead are nothing more than fugitives from Ephraim and Manasseh.” So Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and attacked the men of Ephraim and defeated them. When the Lord does not lead you, you become prone to minding and walking with unnecessary things, like fighting unnecessary battles and stirring evil sentiments. I have always said that devices like racism, tri
