Lord, you know everything about me and I believe that there is nothing that you cannot do for me. For in You, nothing is impossible. You walk with me every moment of every day actively whispering your godly abundant wisdom that only comes from you. You are so generous Lord you provide wisdom for every decision points in my life. Thank you so much Lord for your Word that is active, alive, and powerful.I am confident that the devil can’t stand against me when I speak Your Word. Help me grow and builds my faith and gives me the strength to stand and fight my battles.

O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand-up. You know my every thought when far away. You chart the path ahead of me and tell me where to stop and rest. Every moment you know where I am. You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord. You both precede and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to know! – Psalms 139:1-6, NLT

Jesus I Believe With All I Am!

“Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord; point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.”– Psalms 25:4-5, NLT

Rock of Ages – Taking Christ into Our Boats on the Stormy Sea

“If we take Christ into our boats on the stormy sea, we will ride on in safety through earth’s difficulties to heaven’s shore.”

“When Jesus comes to us our trouble ceases. At His command the wildest storm instantly becomes calm. The trouble itself may not leave us but it is no longer troublesome when He is with us. The wind may not stop blowing and beat upon our lives but He makes peace within us. It is far better to have so much grace that our hearts can be calm and quiet in the fiercest storm, than to have the storm itself quieted while our hearts remain restless. Peace within is far better than calm without.

In a gallery in Italy there are two pictures side by side by different artists. One represents a sea tossed by storms. Dark clouds hang over it and the lightning-bolts pierce the sky. The angry waves roll in anger. In the turbulent water a dead human face is seen. The other represents a sea similarly storm tossed; but in the middle of the angry waters is a rock. In the rock a gap, or cleft with green plants and flowers and in the middle of these is a dove quietly sitting on her nest.

These two pictures tell the whole story of human life in this world. The first is the story of life without Christ, unblessed by His presence and peace. There is storm everywhere with no shelter. The other picture paints the peace which Christ gives. Life is just as stormy. The waves roll just as high but now there is peace. The rock represents Christ; it is in the cleft of the rock that the peace is found. It is just like the old hymn states:

“Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in thee.”

It is in the redemption of Christ alone that we can have peace. If we take Christ into our boats on the stormy sea, we will ride on in safety through earth’s difficulties to heaven’s shore.”

What Shall a Man Give in Exchange for His Soul?

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? – Mark 8:36 KJV

What Shall a Man Give in Exchange for His Soul?

“What shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Ah! that’s the trouble. When the soul is lost, there is no way of recovering it. When we have made our choice, and lived our life, whether right or wrong, there is no possibility of changing the results. Life is given to us only once; and if we live it wrongly, there is no chance to live it over again. A soul lost cannot be gotten back; no money will redeem it.” – Daily Devotionals with Dr. James R. Miller

Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace) Hillsong Live Worship Song

Amazing grace, How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, But now I’m found
Was blind but now I see…

It’s amazing that God uses broken people as His vessels. Yes, ordinary people like you and me. God sees us and uses us mightily in His Kingdom if we are willing. The lyrics of this song Broken Vessels (Amazing Grace) particularly summed it up:

“You take our failure
You take our weakness
You set Your treasure
In jars of clay
So take this heart Lord
I’ll be your vessel
The world to see.”
As you listen to this song, we pray that it will stir up your faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and praying that your heart is willing to serve Him in any way you can do. Go bless you!

Michael W. Smith – Agnus Dei

Agnus Dei – Our God of Wonders, Vol. 1

‘Holy, holy, holy
is the Lord God Almighty,
who was, and is, and is to come.’ (Revelation 4:8, NIV)

“After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice:
‘Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.’” (Revelation 7:9-10, NIV)
