Trust Me, and don't be afraid. Many things feel out of control. Your routines are not running smoothly. You tend to feel more secure when your life is predictable. Let Me lead you to the rock that is higher than you and your circumstances. Take refuge in the shelter of My wings, where you are absolutely secure.
When you are shaken out of your comfortable routines, grip My hand tightly and look for growth opportunities. Instead of bemoaning the loss of your comfort, accept the challenge of something new. I lead you on from glory to glory, making you fit for My kingdom. Say yes to the ways I work in your life. Trust Me and don't be afraid.Isaiah 12:2
English Standard Version
“Behold, God is my salvation;
I will trust, and will not be afraid;
for the Lord God is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation.”
Verse Thoughts
“Salvation” is taken, as in the New Testament (John 4:22; 1Peter 1:9-10), as meaning more than mere deliverance from danger, and including the highest spiritual blessings. This verse is also a quote from Exodus 15:2.
Psalm 61:2-4
English Standard Version
2 from the end of the earth I call to you
when my heart is faint.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I,
3 for you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the enemy.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I,
3 for you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the enemy.
4 Let me dwell in your tent forever!
Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah
Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah
Verse Thoughts
I have often seen in western movies where people will hide themselves behind a rock to shelter themselves or hide themselves from gunfire or battle. Thus we see here we are led to the rock, to something that is my refuge. But it is also higher than I am. A Savior or Redeemer on the same level as us could not save us. We must have one that is supreme over all things, that which is divine. Psalm 62:2,6,7 says God himself is my Rock.
2 Corinthians 3:18
New King James Version
But
we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the
Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory,
just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
My Prayer
I will not be afraid because You God are my salvation, my strength and my song. You have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. Let me dwell with You forever, hidden under the shelter of your wings. Help me to not forget you are Near.

All Things work together for good to those who love God.
ReplyDeleteRomans 8:24.
This happed yesterday on Palm Sunday. I was scheduled to pick my daughter up from Tri Cities Regional Airport at 8:30 PM. About 6 PM I received a call from my daughter who had just landed in Atlanta with the news all flights from Atlanta were backed up and they weren't scheduled to depart until 10:45 if they were lucky. While standing in the information line she and another passenger discovered they were both going to Tri Cities. The other passenger decided to rent a car and drive 4 1/2 hours to Tri Cities. The other passenger invited my daughter to share the ride. My daughter offered to share the cost, the passenger said it wasn't necessary that their company would pay for it. While standing in the rental car line my daughter said she saw a rainbow and it reminded her of God's promises. God is so good.
Sending prayers, love and blessings to my JC Family. Thank you for allowing me to share "All things work together for good to those who love God."
Please forgive Sassy Mom! ROMANS 8:28 NOT ROMANS 8:24
DeleteWhat a blessing to read your post this morning, Sassy Mom! It encourages me to trust Romans 8:24 and know that as I "grip the hand" of my Lord, everything will be OK. I feel 'flat' from all of the events of the last week. I'm seeking that newness that comes with the celebration of His resurrection. Today, my youngest is 30 years old. What a blessing he is to my husband and me and all of of his siblings and his sweet family. We will celebrate this evening. I so enjoyed everyone's sharings yesterday. The encouragement, exhortation and light was a blessing. Happy to hear your good report, MadFox. Everyone have a great day - blessings!
DeleteThanks Norah. Glad to hear all is improving for you and yours. Peace.
DeleteDear Sassy Mom, You older post still proclaims the goodness and faithfulness of our God. Praying you are doing well and feeling good.
DeleteI love these sweet anecdotes to God's love <3 thanks for sharing <3 also I live about an hour from tri cities regional, small world <3
DeleteAs we pray for each other and receive prayers from this JC family, the 'rock' gets bigger and higher. Today we remember the circumstances of the greatest sacrifice made for us. Thank you Father, thank you Jesus. I'm just a sinner grateful that you made a way for me to live in eternity in the Presence of the Lord. ♥️✝️

KY_Bob, Brandy - Thank you. Receiving and returning love, prayers and blessings.
Delete"Take refuge in the shelter of My wings... look for growth opportunities... Trust Me and don't be afraid." A great message for TODAY. He gives us free will so it is a choice! He offers to shelter us under His wings. Is there anyplace more secure than under the protection of God? Of course not! We may be in a rough period but in Him all things are possible so He encourages a new path, a new way, a different path but all under His protection. Therefore as His child FEAR not! Fear is a Liar. (insert melody here). And in Him, there will always be "sweet victory". Godspeed to all and may He bless your today.
ReplyDeleteAnd a great message for TODAY! Thank you Jesus! I trust you Jesus! Please help me to live as I believe. May we all soak in the message of today and experience the hope and peace offered to us by our beloved Father, Son and Holy Spirit! Amen!

Good morning all😊! Thank you for sharing Sassy Mom. Isn't God awesome for looking after our loved ones, sending help just as she needed it. My take away from JC is Psalm 61:2. We all have our storiess, journeys that have been long & hard. Out of the muck & mire He pulled me out! Who am I Lord that you would lead me to the Rock that is higher than I? May I reflect this day on the suffering you are about to endure to get me there. I love you Lord & thank you!
ReplyDeleteAmen!!!!! Very well said, Jan.
DeleteThank you MadFox and Jan! A year later and your comments are perfect for the trials we are enduring right now. We have the free will to stay under the protection of our mighty God, and we know all things are possible because He is in charge. No Fear here. And Jan, Thank you for your inspiration. How many voices are being raised right now, asking the Lord to pull us out of the muck and mire. He inclines His ear to our cries for help. He looks after us and our loved ones, and guides us to make the wise decisions that keep us safe, and He, in his mercy, comforts us in our times of great loss. Thank you for lifting me today.
DeleteThank you for your beautiful prayers

Thank you, Brandy! Right back to you ♥️🙏
DeleteThis reading today was just what a needed to hear. My son's birthday was yesterday. He's 36 years old. He's so alone and has no zest or ambitions. I feel like such a failure as a mother. His childhood was really rough with an alcoholic father. I am broken today feeling so heavy with grief and sadness. Afraid for him and his future. I know Jesus is bigger than these concerns and I know he loves Eric more than I ever could. Eric dosen't know God. I wish he did. I just pray one day he will. My heart is broken. I know there's opportunity for growth here along with healing. I want to look past my circumstances and seek his face for it is there I find comfort. I believe in miracles and I believe God is working in Eric to move him. I leave this pain here today and pray for the love and prayers from this community to change his heart that he may find what I have found in loving God! Thank you for listening and thank you for your prayers.
ReplyDeletePraying for you and your son Julieanne. For you that you won't take on the guilt as his Mom. Wouldn't it be great if our children would all get stamped with a guarantee against trials when we give birth to them. I feel that as soon as they give that first cry, their journey begins towards finding their own faith in the Lord. We need to set them free to do just that. Scarry though as it is. Jesus paid for that guilt on the cross. Just continue to be a prayer warrior for him. The enemy cannot have him! He is being put through the fire, a refining to shine bright for kingdom work. Bank on it. Watch & see what the Lord will do. Amen
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jan! Thank you for your reply. Thank you for the reminder. Thank you for being there.
DeleteThank you Jan for your excellant reminder and thoughts. I wrote them in my journal for confidence and hope. Yes it is their own faith journey...what matters more? Salvation, eternal life, all available. Freedom from all suffering,strongholds and addiction available. Our ability to make a difference in prayer!
DeleteThank you Lord Jesus for giving us everything we need.
How is everything?
DeleteThe scripture today should end with who Love God and are called according to His Purpose. His purpose sometimes is hard to see.I'm 73 now a waitress in Renton Washington Lead me to Jesus when I was 23. When I pray, read, witness or whatever I set out to do, all these years I've always asked the Holy Spirit to Lead me to the Purpose of Jesus and He has.That's one of the reasons Jesus sent Him to earth, To ask Him.Julian I pray that the Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus to Eric and show Eric that Jesus is Alive and has a special Purpose for
ReplyDeleteHis life.one of the main reasons the Spirit is here is to bring us life and that mor abundantly. Read Hebrews 11:6 The end of that scripture says He is a rewarder of those that DILIGENTLY seek Him. The reward is not material things but the very presence of God in our lives. God touch Eric by your Holy Spirit and let Eric see and receive Jesus, show him how wonderful and exciting this Life in Christ is, Amen
Amen, unknown. Thank you for your prayer. Thank you from my heart. Thank you!
DeleteDay 6 of recovery, still going strong, miss my kids though. Bought Easter baskets for them and going to ship them out. Wife still being very hateful toward me. Thank you for prayers.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you, anonymous. God bless you and your family. Sending prayers of healing for your family. Spirit, bless this man and his wife as they walk the journey of recovery. Bring healing to their heart of hearts that there may be an abundance of forgiveness and compassion. Addiction is so cruel and so hard on families but we know, God that you have the power to turn everything into good. May their love grow as they work toward healing, God. Thank you for the gifts of recovery. We trust you, God!
DeletePsalm 91:1-3

Heavenly Father, thank You for a new day, a day in Your presence filled with many gifts along the way. Lead me to take hold of these gifts and not be afraid about what tomorrow holds, but trust in You with my whole heart. Thank You for counting me worthy for Your Kingdom. I take refuge in the shelter of Your wings, in Jesus’ name.
ReplyDeleteSome Christian believers are more like unbelieving believers. We trust our friends, family, our jobs, pastors, the bank, the government etc., more than we trust God and His Word. Trusting God is not a one time, on-again, off-again thing. Each time we are attacked by disappointments, loss, evil, pain etc., it is like another Trust Test. Trusting God is believing that He loves you and knowing He’s a good God, that He has the power to help you, and wants to help with an open arm. Sometimes people thing that believing in God entitles them to a problem free life, but scriptures like Isaiah 43:2 says: “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.” When we accept Jesus Christ as our Savior,the Spirit of God comes to live inside us. This means we don’t have to go through our problems or sufferings alone. God yarns for us to turn to Him especially during these times. Life can be simple and peaceful when we come to God like little children and tell Him we don’t want to live on our own, we want to trust Him. When we don’t know what to do, we’ll trust Him. When we don’t understand why, we’ll trust Him. When we do our part by trusting Him, He’ll take care of the rest. Psalm 9:10 “And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.”
Dear Father, Please help us not to lean of our own understanding, but to trust You and not be afraid, but say yes to Your ways and will for our lives, in Jesus’ name.
Trusting God for Your safety. Remain Blessed.
Maplewood, NJ
Amen, Maplewood. Every day is a Trust test. Do we lean on our human emotions of fear or doubt, or do we trust and acknowledge the Lord in all things and remain in his presence? I remember how secure I felt holding my own father's hand when we walked through an unknown place. I knew as long as I held his strong hand, I would be alright. I told my sister yesterday that I'm not afraid because I know Our Father will carry us through this Pandemic, because He is our DADDY and we are his beloved children. Have a blessed day and remain in His sweet and protective presence.
DeleteAMEN! "Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you."
DeleteJoining prayers in with yours Maplewood NJ, Jeanne and Audra.
DeleteDear Good, Good, Heavenly Father God, Please and Thank You for helping us not to lean on our own understanding, but to trust You and not be afraid, but say yes to Your ways and will for our lives, (including when we pray intercessory prayers) Not my will but Thy Will Be Done, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Amen! Holding hands with my sisters and brothers as we pray together in gratitude and praise. Trusting in His Word and His promises.
DeleteFather, Your Way is the Right Way! Thy Will Be Done!

DeleteEASTER WEDNESDAY
ReplyDelete(Luke 24:13-35) Two men are heading back to Emmaus. Two men who had taken an interest in Jesus. They had listened to Him teach, they had watched Him heal people and they had become convinced He was from God. These things had led them to have hope He was the one to set Israel free (vs. 21). They had it all figured out and hoped accordingly. When it didn't worked out as they thought it should, it led to their present state of mind and heart. They were discouraged, disillusioned, disappointed, and downcast. But because they truly wanted to believe within their heart Jesus as their Lord, Jesus joins them on their journey, not just to walk alongside of them but to jump into their hearts helping them to see what God wanted the Messiah to fulfill. Their hearts burned and are being purified from the negatives that they have allowed in. When He appears to be continuing on, they say, "No stay with us and share a meal with us." They are liking this guy whoever He is. "Let's eat. Here, companion on our journey whoever You are, would You break the bread for our supper." (Gasp!) His hands that are breaking the bread have nail prints in them. Their eyes are now wide open, they truly see who He is. He has a name. This is Jesus. And with that He disappears for they now have their hopes clarified. Without further ado, they spring up from the table and run back to Jerusalem to tell His faithful followers all that had happened and how they came to realize who He was in the breaking of the bread.
"We had so hoped..." How often we set ourselves up for disappointment when we put too much detail in our hope. Our JC readings call us to trust in Him, and leave it there. We do what we are given to do but the direction on where things are going are up to Him. We can cause ourselves to be disappointed but He will never disappoint us.
God be with you, brothers and sisters in Christ. With love, Bob
May we also have the eyes to see Him as He truly is: Our Savior, Our Shepherd, Our Help, Our Light, Our Hope, Our greatest Love and Friend. I will continue to Hope in Him and Trust that He knows Best.
DeleteBob your words "Our JC readings call us to trust in Him, and leave it there. We do what we are given to do but the direction on where things are going are up to Him. We can cause ourselves to be disappointed but He will never disappoint us." So very true! I'm doing the job God has given me for this season. At times I feel a ping of guilt because I'm not doing various things I used to do at church. Then God reminds me to turn my focus back on the job he has laid before me, raising these sweet souls, allowing Jesus to raise his children by living with through me. My focus must remain on what his purpose is. Thank you Lord so much for allowing me to do your work here on earth.
DeleteAs Unknown in Renton Washington stated above, I too, am asking the Holy Spirit to Lead me to the Purpose of Jesus. He is Faithful and I am Grateful!
DeleteGOD IS LOVE (I John 4:16-21)
ReplyDeleteJohn 3:16 says it all in one sentence. I John 4:16-21 provides the details of that truth. The rest of the Bible could be considered as commentary on the theme, 'God is love'. Our JC reading above speaks of our feeling more secure when life is predictable. If that be the case, then let us be secure because it is all so predictable: we have been loved; we are being loved; we will always be loved. Everything stems from that root. We are loved and the measure to which we hold this dear within our heart will be evident in the love we show as the I John passage amplifies.
God is love. What more can be said? What more needs to be said?
God be with you. With love, Bob
Henri Nouwen's thoughts on the love of God are worthy of contemplation:
Delete"Jesus himself interprets this trusting in the unconditional love of God in face of so much evil in the world by comparing God’s love to the light. He says:
'Though the light has come into the world people have preferred darkness to light because their deeds were evil. And indeed, everybody who does wrong hates the light and avoids it, to prevent his actions from being shown up; but whoever does the truth comes out into the light, so that what he is doing may plainly appear as done in God.'
Jesus sees the evil in this world as a lack of trust in God’s love. He makes us see that we persistently fall back on ourselves, rely more on ourselves than on God, and are inclined more to love of self than love of God. So we remain in darkness. If we walk in the light, then we are enabled to acknowledge that everything good, beautiful, and true comes from God and is offered to us in love."
LOVE.

SECRET OF INTERCESSION PRAYERS
Last week while my head was struggling through "understanding" The Secret of Intercession Prayer, I asked many of the same questions Madfox and others asked yesterday.
In essence, Why does the date on one package of good tasting expensive cookies expire before a cheap store brand?
I was led to Proverbs 3. Could the answer to our questions be ...when you want Favor, Good Judgment and Common Sense, then...
(drum roll please)
...Trust The Lord completely; don't ever trust yourself nor lean on and rely on your own understanding? Put God first in everything you do, and He Will Direct The Path and crown your efforts with success!???
Should the final eight words in all of our prayer brackets be, [Not My Will But THY WILL BE DONE]???
I wonder, I wonder, I wonder, but do I really want to know? Or would I prefer continuing in the fantasy game of a Santa Claus God or a Vending Machine God??? Or comparing two lives and deciding which one I think should be allowed to live a bit longer on this earth??? Or thinking God died, and left me in charge??? Or satisfying whatever I use for gratifying my illusions of control???
Thanks for opening up the real life chapter on INTERSESSION Prayers for JC Warriors to share any Light they have received.
All of His Light is welcome in this place. May God shed His Light on Intercessory Prayers; however, Not my will, but God's Will Be Done. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
Amen Brie, We are blessed to be in the Light, and Peace of God.
ReplyDeleteRest in Him who cares for you. May your sleep be sweet.
Praying for all my family here. Let us pray without ceasing.
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
Father, I thank You for everything. I bless, praise, and rejoice in You Lord continually and always. Let us remember that all things we have in this world are of this world and not of the kingdom of God. For we need nothing but our love of God in our hearts, minds, and lives to be in the presence of the Lord. Continue to lead me along the path You have prepared for me and let me be of good courage and passion to do what You created me to do. You are my reason for being Lord. You are so merciful, gracious, amazing, and wonderful. There is no one above You. Thank You Jesus. I submit myself to You. I give You myself and I say "Yes" to You Lord. Do Your work in me; transforming, teaching, guiding, and retraining me. Mold me into the being I am supposed to be. I am Yours and You are mine. Hallelujah and Amen 🙏.
ReplyDelete# METOO, Janet. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
DeleteHow are you doing Janet? Still praying for you. You're in good hands, God's hands🙏🥰

Delete“I do not pray for these alone [it is not for their sake only that I make this request], but also for [all] those who [will ever] believe and trust in Me through their message, that they all may be one; just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe [without any doubt] that You sent Me. I have given to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected and completed into one, so that the world may know [without any doubt] that You sent Me, and [that You] have loved them, just as You have loved Me.” (John 17:20-23).
ReplyDeleteA Prayer with so much Love and Power! The Son of God, not only was about to lay down His life for us, but He also prayed to His Father for all believers! God heard the prayer of His Son for us, knowing full well it was going to please Him to see His Son on that cross for our sake (Isaiah 53:10)! How can I not Trust Him and say yes to the ways He works in my life? I’ve asked myself that many times when the trials loom and when the waiting period seems excruciating. Scripture tells us of God’s goodness and how He acts on behalf of those who wait for Him (Isaiah 64:4)!
The secret for the success of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Joseph, Daniel, and ALL the faithful saints in the old and new testaments, was their ability to Trust and Obey God! They rejected discouraging words, they recognized the true nature of the battles they faced, they responded to the challenges with positive confession, they relied on the power of God and they reckon the VICTORY (see 1 Sam. 17:32-37, v. 47, 26, 45, 47, and 2 Kings 6:17). In a nutshell, they Looked Beyond what they could See to what God Sees! When we turn our hearts toward God and trust Him, if necessary He will move heaven and earth to show us His Will (2 Chr. 20:12). Why? because He loves us that much! Triumph comes because of God’s ability, and when we place our trust in Him, we are able to tap into irresistible force that no one and absolutely nothing can succeed in opposing!
Faithful Father, I give thanks to You for yet another blessed day. As we eagerly anticipate Jesus’ return, please keep us living productively for Your Kingdom. Help us to look into the eyes of all our Goliaths and declare to them that we fear them not, but TRUST in the power of our Almighty Creator! Please develop our trust until it becomes unshakeable just like You did for King David. We give You thanks for honoring the prayer of Your Precious Son on our behalf. Thank You for Your grace that is sufficient for ALL! It is in His (Jesus’) name I pray. Amen.
Blessing and Peace.

WOW! "Total hematalogic remission" :) I just read your post from last night! Thanks for sharing Brother Friend, Madfox. And thanks be to God that we do not have to rely on our own understanding of Intercessory, or an other prayers, for them to work. Have Faith in Him and in our prayers to Him, Yes; in our own selves or our own limited worldly understanding, No.
ReplyDeleteHis thoughts and ways are so much higher than ours. Praise God from Whom all Blessings flow. In Jesus' Name. Amen
Joining in Praise and Thanks to our Lord! What an amazing report!
DeleteBrie, I meant to post this here today on 4.15. I'm having a difficult time sleeping and the insomnia impactsed, obviously, the placement of this!
DeletePost.. I would only add now this morning in re-reading that sometimes the answer is yes and sometimes no, but in your wisdom you determine how it is best. May we humbly accept either answer.
Another way of showing intercesorry prayer as a discipline that is a mystery is the email I got today from my Doc. "Total hematalogic remission". It was the result of a test that showed no signs of any MM cancer markers in my blood.
God I do not know how the prayers of a few or thousands impact the outcomes of events, but you told us how to pray and to do so without pride. Thank you for answering our prayers for Janet, Norah, Brie, Jeanne, and so many others here. Sometimes the answer is no, may we grow in the acceptance of Your will. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Hallelujah Madfox. God is so good.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts about intercessory prayers and for sharing your good news. I don't understand the mystery either, but I know I just need to pray.
DeleteAwesome news MadFox! God is good....no God is GREAT!

Prayers and Blessings to all of you, my JC Family. Our futures are as bright as the promises of God.
JC Prayer Warrior FAM: I still don't know how a light switch turns on a light bulb; I still don't know how words get on records; I still don't know how a fax machine or computer gets a document across the world from my hand into yours in seconds. So I certainly don't understand how intercessory prayers get answered. These happenings I may never know and that's OK, but this is what I do know with all certainty: God is going to keep on being Faithful and I am going to keep on being grateful. I am going to keep on looking for the light! I am going to keep on singing His songs! I am going to keep on sending out prayers! I am going to keep on lifting up my voice asking for prayers! And I am going to keep on praying! IN JESUS' NAME. AMEN

DeleteTears of joy for all this news. Please allow me to offer this observation: we give prayer, and sometimes receiving is the hardest part. Mad 🦊, your journey was a lot about receiving...prayer, platelets, love, surrendering to medical procedures, and most of all, FAITH. Praise be to God, you said yes to all of it, it out was made good. ♥️
DeleteHallelujah! So happy for you dear brother! Our God is so good and faithful! He heard and answered our prayers! Praise Him! Much love. Now get some sweet sleep.
DeleteIs God really saying NO, or is He really saying, WAIT, I have something better for you, Hand designed by Me especially for you and for the highest good of all concerned?
ReplyDeleteTo my impatience, it sounds like NO. But if by some Miracle, I ever became patient, would I be able to see that patience was worth the WAIT ??
He is saying Wait because the best is yet to come.
DeletePraying the prayers of our hearts for full healing or whatever we are asking for says to God, You are God, you’ve told me to pray, and I will do it. The specific answer is not my concern, but His. When we pray we say...I’m yours, God and I trust you with my situation or the person I’m praying for. If we worry too much about how or when or what to pray, it becomes more about us, and not our trust in Him. I reach up my hand for His almighty power as the Mayo “tumor board” will present my daughters case presented for review for possible future treatment on April 22. She is only 43 and has 3 young children and earnestly desires to be free of colon cancer. She has responded well to the chemo so she will possibly be considered for surgery or radiation. Thanks for any and all prayers for full healing. God knows what is best for her and I pray that the specialists in that room will be guided by the Holy Spirit as they discuss her treatment. God is good.
ReplyDeleteJoining my prayers in with yours as I gather with you in His Name, our Dear Ellen. I believe Him when He says, Wherever two or more are gathered in His Name, He is in their midst. With Faith, Hope, and Love, Brie
DeleteYour daughter is in my prayers, as well, Ellen! Amen Brie!
DeletePraying for your daughter, Ellen. May the Lord lift her up in His healing arms and bless her 🙏.
DeleteThank you Lord for handling all of Ellen's concerns and improving her daughters health! 🙏
DeleteThank you Lord Jesus for healing them! You are wonderful Jesus!
DeleteI trust you lord Jesus. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Continuing to pray for your dear daughter, Ellen. May she get the perfect treatment or the proper surgery to heal her completely. He can do all things!. Thank You Jesus!
DeleteEllen
DeleteGod DID answer these prayers, as I look back at all of the requests for prayer its like looking at a journal of trust and prayer. God has answered and continues to answer prayer for my daughter’s healing and for my healing and my husbands healing….I trust HIM with your healing as well!
DeleteBrie - "I am going to keep on praying! IN JESUS' NAME. AMEN
ReplyDeleteIt's Too Late To Turn Back Now.." Hallelujah!! AMEN!!!
Prayers joining my brothers and sisters in christ rebecca
ReplyDeleteI wanted to share with all of you something I found out. I had started having some major health problems starting last year and didn't know what or why it was happening. When my roof came crashing down and I had to leave, I now know that I apparently had been breathing in mold and didn't realize it. God saved me -- yet again. Thank You Jesus. I prayed for healing and He did. (There are other things also, but they are still in progress). God works in mysterious ways, but ALWAYS for our good and His glory. I am still having issues getting through to talk to anyone at unemployment. I had already received the acceptance letter and an email back in March saying I didn't have to do anything else, but file weekly, but I haven't received any money in a month now. And every week I have to put in all the past week claims again. I've even tried faxing, emailing, and I mailed them a letter, but I still haven't heard back yet. Prayers are more than appreciated. I know that God is working on it (as well as everything else). Thank you all for your prayers, thoughts, and support. I am so grateful and blessed to have all of you in my life. Praise God. He is so amazing! Hallelujah!
ReplyDeleteJesus loves us.
DeleteJanet, I'm SO glad you are out of that place! Re: your unemployment, you could try calling US Representative (go to house.gov and enter your zip code; in some cases you have to add your whole address-if you live on the line between 2 or 3 Reps). Call the office. If they are like the one I work in, they can put you on a Congressional Inquiry list. Sometimes, it still takes weeks, but we have helped a lot of people get their money. You can put the zip code where you are staying or your last address. Keeping you in my prayers and thank God you are out of the mold.
DeleteThanking God for taking you out of a place full of mold that was effecting your health. He is such a Way Maker. He knew there was a problem before you realized it. He did the same for me when He guided me to see my Cardiologist before I realized I had a big problem. He is such a great help to us. Guides our every step but we must keep our eyes open for His guiding Hand. Praying he resolves your unemployment problems and leads you to a wonderful new home and fulfillment and joy. Thank You Father for all this in the Name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
DeleteI trust you Lord Jesus. Thank you for all you goodness!
ReplyDeleteAmen Woman of God.
ReplyDeleteGood Friday. Our Lord and Savior has paid for our sins. He was a ransom for many. He had no sin yet He bore all of ours. He didn't want to drink the cup but He did it our of love for us and for His Father. Thank You Jesus!
ReplyDeleteI'll be singing this later in Church. It always moves me. Here are the words. God bless your day in all ways. Much love dear Family.
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?
Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they nailed Him to the cross?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when they crucified my Lord?
Amen Jeanne 🙏. Thank you for sharing. God bless you.
DeleteThanks for the blessing sweet Janet! Praying that you are feeling well and your job is going fine and God is providing all your needs. God bless you always.
DeleteHeavenly Father, thank You. I praise You Lord always. Help me let go of my old ways and embrace Your ways for me. Lead me from glory to glory and help me to say "yes" to You and to all You are doing in me and my life. Let's go to the rock that is higher than my circumstances together and hold my hand as I take shelter in Your loving wings Lord. Shower me with Your perfect peace, love, and joy and let it flow abundantly through me. Thank You Jesus. I love You Lord and my eyes adore You.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful prayer dear sister. Every day gives us one more chance to do His will and give Him glory. Taking your words with me:
Delete"Shower me with Your perfect peace, love, and joy and let it flow abundantly through me."
John 3:16 KJV
ReplyDeleteFor God so loved the world, that HE gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
WERE YOU THERE?
https://youtu.be/MI9V8owRTA4
Amen, Amen. We had 5 choir members tonight and we did our best to sing Were You There to give God glory and to move the hearts of the congregation. He suffered and gave everything for us. Let us never forget it. Saved by His Blood.
DeleteThank you SassyMom. Good Friday is holding the promise of salvation on the cross today. The drops of blood is about to touch the earth, shaking it to its very core, it trembles & churns, all creation is about to cringe at the power of it! Oh the blood of Jesus!
ReplyDeleteIt's never been outrun
By anything I've done
Its never been too weak
To heal what's hurting me
There is no depth of shame
That it cannot erase
There is no heart so torn
That it cannot restore
Oh the blood
The lamb of glory
Shed with love
To change my story
Flowing now with unending power
Oh the blood of Jesus
Its never seen defeat
From my enemy
This rushing crimson stream
Reaches through eternity
Oh the blood
The Lamb of glory
Shed with love
To change my story
Flowing now with unending power
Oh the blood of Jesus
Every sin, every scar
All the guilt inside my heart
Covered now, flooded by the blood of Jesus
Reaching far, reaching wide
Every place I try to hide
Covered now, flooded by the blood of Jesus
Oh the blood
The Lamb of glory
Shed with love
To change my story
Flowing now with unending power
Oh the blood of Jesus
Happy good Friday dear ones💞
It is good Friday for us sinners, BAD Friday for the powers of hell!
Amen! Hallelujah!
Amen! Praying all JC Blog folk and your loved ones will experience a Blessed Good Friday.
DeleteAmen! It is a blessed Good Friday. Jesus shed His Blood with Love and changed all of our stories. Hallelujah!
Delete1 I stand amazed in the presence
ReplyDeleteOf Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me,
A sinner condemned, unclean.
How marvelous! How wonderful!
And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful!
Is my Savior’s love for me!
2 For me it was in the garden,
He prayed: “Not my will, but Thine.”
He had no tears for His own griefs,
But sweat-drops of blood for mine.
3 In pity angels beheld Him,
And came from the world of light
To strengthen Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night.
4 He took my sins and my sorrows,
He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calv’ry,
And suffered, and died alone.
5 When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see,
’Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me.

ReplyDeleteA very LOUD!!! AMEN!!!
NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD. https://youtu.be/vKF0Dn2_XZk
Nothing but the blood of JESUS!! ♥️🎶
DeleteAmen! Sassy Mom and Audra! I just LOVE this song so much! Sharing it with my Mom and Sis and my Bible Group! Thanks. Happy Easter my dear sisters!
DeleteI was driving home last and always pass a small church. Sometimes I’ll stop in the parking lot and pray. Last night, as I stopped to pray, I looked up at the cross on the steeple. And there it was illuminated in the night, with the full moon lighting up the sky through the clouds asa backdrop, I was struck with awe, wonder, shame, thankfulness, grief and joy. Thinking of my Savior hanging on that cross for ME?! Such love for such a sinner is nearly unimaginable. But through faith I humbly accepted this gift of grace and love and prayed a little prayer of thanksgiving. What more could I do-I have nothing to offer the Creator of the universe, Elohim, Yahweh, the Great I Am, but my belief in the Son, my Savior, my Redeemer, the Lamb of God and son of man. Today we remember His death on the cross, but Sunday is coming! Oh praise his holy name -Jesus! Rejoice, Jesus lives! Sunday is coming!!
ReplyDeleteHis blood has washed us clean. Rejoice!
Peace be with you family. Shalom 🙏
What a beautiful experience you shared. Thank you.
DeleteAlso, I appreciate and learn from my Catholic friends. To take time to slow down and contemplate the path Jesus took to bring us into an unimaginable relationship with our Creator!
Thank you Rich for sharing your beautiful experience and reminding me of the importance of living in the here and now. Continued Blessings to you.
DeleteThank you Rich for sharing your vantage point of the cross. So inspiring. Love & blessings 🥰
DeleteThanks Rich! What a wonderful gift you shared with us. We are all sinners and yet we are loved and forgiven because He paid the price for our sins through His suffering and death, and praise God, His Resurrection! I noticed the full moon as I drove home from Church tonight. Such an emotional service. I was thinking it was appropriate to have a full moon on Good Friday. I sang the afternoon service but then returned for the Stations of the Cross. It was so moving. We must never forget all Jesus endured out of love for us. He made us clean and free and whole. We are anchored by our faith to Heaven where He is already at the right Hand of the Father. He is in us and we are in Him and someday we will see His Face.
DeleteI want to share these two songs that have stirred powerful feelings of Jesus' presence for me and my family over the last few months.
ReplyDeleteBlessings to all.

Thank you dear John H! Two absolutely beautiful songs, sung from the heart in faith and for God's glory! Thank you so much for sharing them. I couldn't help but smile because he sang so sweetly and played so well that he lifted my heart sky high.
DeleteThank you, John! Beautiful music and songs. Love the guitar work and the feeling I got after listening. Feeling so humbled today by the overwhelming love of our Father and the death of Jesus who died for our sins. Happy Easter JC family, we know how the story ends (meaning, thanks to Jesus it doesn't end for us) ♥️✝️
ReplyDeleteAmen dear Audra! Sunday is coming and we will rejoice! Yes thanks to the Lord our story continues right into eternity! The best is yet to come.
DeleteThanks! Happy Easter Audra and to all our dear family here.
Mary had a little Lamb,
ReplyDeleteWho came to save the world!
Love that dear Learning to Trust. Amen. The Holy Lamb of God.
ReplyDeleteI Say yes to the ways You work in my life Lord. Better Your way than my way anyday.
ReplyDeletePsalm 84: 10-12
10. Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11. For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
12. O LORD Almighty, blessed is the man who trusts in you.
Amen!
ReplyDelete"The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." (1 Samuel 17:37).
ReplyDeleteThank Jeanne, Peter and Janet for helping me start my day and to
ReplyDelete“Take refuge in the shelter of My wings, where you are absolutely secure.”
God bless you all❤️🙏
So happy to help you dear sister! We lift and encourage each other to God’s glory
DeleteHeavenly Father, thank You and bless Your holy name. I praise You Lord always! Thank You Jesus 😊. Please, sweet, dear Lord, hold our hands tightly and keep us tethered to You as we walk with You through the day. Lead us to the rock that is higher than our circumstances and let us rest in Your trusting, loving arms and perfect sovereignty. Let us embrace the newness of things that You are placing in our lives and help us accept the challenges with an open heart and mind. Thank You for You Lord! In Jesus name, I pray, Amen 🙏. Shalom!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! Amen to that dear Janet! I’m holding on tight to His Unchanging Hand. This weekend had so many Murphy’s Law moments but He is so much greater!
DeleteAmen! In Jesus's name I pray. 🙏♥️
ReplyDeletePlease pray for my youngest son. I woke this morning at 3am in fear for his future and his heart. He is going through allot right now. I prayed psalm 23 until I was able to get to sleep. How fitting today's JC devo , this reminds me that God is in control, and I trust him. Please pray for Ben, he is 18, with depression and a physical battle he is fighting.
ReplyDeleteLord I lift him up to you and pray for your will and healing. Rn 8:28 I stand on this promise. I trust you Lord.
Thank you all for joining here, it inspires me daily.
Dear Violet! I just added you and Ben to my prayer list. God can make things right and heal all Ben’s infirmities and depression. Trust in His promises and His faithfulness. Praying for you both.
ReplyDeleteFather God, We thank you for lifting Ben out of His depression and shining bright light on his path, and healing every weakness in his body, mind and spirit. Thank You for showing him You are always at his side to care for him and to guide his steps. We know you can do all this and also give his good mother strength, peace, and rest. Thank You for all this and for shining Your faithfulness into their lives and their health as only You can. We are praying in the powerful Name of Christ Jesus our Risen Lord. Amen
Psalm 9:9-10
The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
And those who know your name put their trust in you,
for you, O LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
Psalm 18:6
In my distress I called upon the LORD;
to my God I cried for help.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry to him reached his ears.
Psalm 50:15
and call upon me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me.
Psalm 55:22
Cast your burden on the LORD,
and he will sustain you;
he will never permit
the righteous to be moved.
Dear Jeanne, I woke up this morning after onke of the best night sleep I had in a long time. I knew in my heart somebody had prayed for me in this JC community, thank you and praise God for his work through you. Bob posted for us all "to make sure we share when God works in our lives" here I am sharing. God bless I will copy this to the 16th too
DeleteDear Norah, Happy 34th Birthday to your youngest son! May God bless him in a special way and guide him to all the desires of his heart. God bless you and your family always.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Bob?
ReplyDeleteDear Norah! Now I can wish your youngest son a Happy 35th Birthday! May God grant him a special Birthday Blessing today and grant healing to your darling husband! Thank You Jesus!
ReplyDeleteWhenever we realize our human weaknesses and our faults, we must also realize our strengths. God gave us those strengths and He shares His own strength with us. I had a very busy day today and forgot something important and felt very bad about it. I prayed about it and tried to set things right. God is my Best Friend. I told Him how I was feeling and I was comforted by His Word. He knows how fragile we are and understands us better than we understand ourselves. He is our constant Help and His Spirit is always guiding us but we must be alert to His nudging. When we are too busy, we overlook some of His instruction. Every new day is a chance to get things right and to please and glorify God. He is such a good and merciful Father. He forgives us for our shortcomings, and others forgive us for forgetting important things, so why is it so hard to forgive ourselves for our human frailties and failures. I was so upset today that I forgot an important event today, but I prayed with my mom and sis, and got home in time to sing for the Lord, and cooked a good dinner, and made my son's family happy, and baked cupcakes for my daughter in love and that gave God some glory. Thank You Father for loving me with all my faults and imperfections and leading me to be more like You, in Jesus' Name. Amen
ReplyDeletePsalm 103:13-14
As a father has compassion on his children,
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;
for he knows how we are formed,
he remembers that we are dust.
1 John 3:2-3
Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.
Psalm 84:11
For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.
Blessed by the Scriptures.
DeleteAmen Jeanne 🙏. Thank you for the encouraging words. I can get caught up in all my flaws and imperfections at times, but this is a ploy of the evil one; -- being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6).
ReplyDeleteAmen complete in Him.
DeleteThanks dear Janet and Peter! I’m better today. God’s peace is holding me still. Guilt is not from Him. I’m grateful I belong to an understanding and compassionate God. He is making my paths straight and all is well with my soul.
Delete"I lead you on from glory to glory, making you fit for My kingdom."
ReplyDeleteSpeaking for myself (others may feel the same way too), I just don't see the 'changing from glory to glory'. I know my struggles; I struggle and succeed, and struggle then fail. Sad to say it seems I'm a yo-yo Christian.
Resilience within me refuses to give up.
I guess the 'glory to glory' bit means from my perspective incrementally, step by step, with ups increasing and downs decreasing, I am approaching completeness, while from my Lord Jesus' perspective He sees me as having already crossed the finishing line, fully complete.
He sees me changed into His likeness and my faith must be in what He sees not what I see.
Scripture says we're complete in Him - Colossians 2; the whole chapter is worth reading.
I trust your heart shall be blessed as mine was listening to the precious words in: 'Complete In Thee' https://youtu.be/B9UVh3Z_jN8?si=JIOUa3awEU9CQuxH
We are all works in progress but every day out Great Potter molds us to His Image. Don’t look back! The past is gone but the future is in God’s mighty Hands. We can’t go back and fix things but we can always go forward in God’s presence. We must not chew on the bitter, only the sweet. Wish we could see ourselves through His Eyes. I feel so loved and cared for. Happy to be a sheep in our Good Shepherd’s Flock. He turns everything to good.
ReplyDeletePsalm 37:4-6
Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him,
And He shall bring it to pass.
He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light,
And your justice as the noonday.
So true, Jeanne. Amen!
DeleteAppreciate the song and encouragement, Peter. Adding Romans 12 verses 1and 2,NIV
ReplyDelete12 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Especially love these sentences from your post -
“ guess the 'glory to glory' bit means from my perspective incrementally, step by step, with ups increasing and downs decreasing, I am approaching completeness, while from my Lord Jesus' perspective He sees me as having already crossed the finishing line, fully complete.
He sees me changed into His likeness and my faith must be in what He sees not what I see”
God bless
Thanks dear Websister! More good food. Amen. Day by day, step by step, minute by minute in His healing and peaceful presence. His Plan for us unfolds right into eternity.
ReplyDeleteLove to all of you, Dear JC Family. Falling in bed, so sleepy. As Patsy Clairmont said, "God Uses Cracked Pots!" Sleep sweet - God is on the Night Watch!
ReplyDeleteLove, Norah
Goodnight sweet Norah! Much love to you and all our JC Family. Rest well in the loving care of our Good Shepherd Who Never Sleeps.
