 Isaiah 7:14a: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign. God will do it
What a year this has been. It started with all kinds of signs, protesters, Corona, natural disasters, civil unrest, riots, trouble on every side, plague, pestilence, death on every side. Election problems, in essence the same ole stuff. And through it all, the same message, the same story, the same Jesus. Love never changes. Love does it again. We have learned to re-value the things that matter the most. Family, family, and family--natural, physical and spiritual, so we can be the children of God He is calling us to be. What sign has He shown you again: Love, protection, provision, strength, mercy, grace, compassion, His gentleness and surely His Faithfulness in Jesus Name. Through it all, through it all, I have learned to trust in Jesus, I have learned to trust in God; through it all, through it all I have learned to trust in God. Merry “Christ” Day, to you and yours. He himself will, shall give you a sign concerning all things. Keep your eyes, mind, ears and hearts on Jesus. Shalom

 I Thessalonians 5:18: In everything give thanks: for this is the Will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
WOW, it has certainly been a long time since our last correspondence. I am still happy to say, like others, “I am still here and thankful that all is as well as it is.” So much has gone on, and so much is still going on; with the pandemic still raging, and the death, destruction, floods, fires, murders, protesters, marches, mayhem, chaos, darkness, and confusion just to name a few things that are going on in our personal spaces, here and everywhere in this land. Afar and abroad, we are admonished to give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you, me, us. How can this be? Glad you asked! We are thankful because we know why things are like they are. We are thankful that we know things will not remain the way that they. Finally, we are thankful because we know Who can and will change everything. Shalom
WOW! Where to begin? Since February 2020, the world as we have known, has changed completely in a matter of serious moments. As a nation we have been slow and persistent in a downward spiral. We have been in rebellion and disobedience, never stopping once to rest from doing things our own way. Not taking the time to be still long enough to perceive another road, going in a different direction.
The “pandemic,” whatever label you put on it, comes from the same place which began from the very beginning. It is called SIN! Let’s call an apple an apple because it is exactly what it is until it becomes something else. As a nation, we hid our heads in the road of disobedience, which caused our hearts to be locked up in the shell of self will. We must NOW take a rest, stop, and look up so that we can cross over this road with the help of God our Heavenly Father, before we perish in our shells. Jesus Christ is our one true Foundation. If we miss Him in this season, to Take control of our very lives, like the turtle in the shell; it is the possibility that when we come out, we could get our heads cut off and die. Shalom  Morning Devotion APRIL 21th, 2020 There is absolutely no one else. He Is Our All In All...
Some trust in horses; some trust in princes; some trust in the arms of men. But we will /I will put all my trust in You, My Lord, Master, and only Savior -Jesus Christ. Father, there is no one else who can do what Jesus has done, is doing now, and getting ready to do on behalf of all who call on His name and have Faith in Him He declared that "it is finished." We have the victory, now! Who else can help us, can bring us through all things, everything, anything? Who else has all power in heaven and on earth? His name is Jesus Christ, the only Begotten Son of God. In Him, we move and have our being. In Him, All Things Are Possible. Our God Is Great and Greatly to Be Praised! We are nothing without You. We can do nothing without You. Thank you Jesus, yes we will/I will - TRUST IN THE LORD "Till" LIFE ETERNAL. Love you in Jesus Name! Shalom, Pastor Armstrong  Just letting you know that you and your family are in my continued prayers especially during this time.
May our God’s Sovereign Will continue to be done as our hearts are focused on God. Some say how can we rejoice in times of suffering? Surely we have joy not because of what’s going on, but because of who is in control of all things. I rejoice because lives are being saved, people are praying more, and calling on the name of God. Knees are bowing and tongues are confessing that we need a Savior and His Name is Jesus. I could go on and on with reasons to rejoice; but in this hour the church will be resurrected. This is, “Passion Week." While Christ was on His way to the cross, to die for the sins of the world that was corrupt and defiled with sin; like now, in the midst of death on all sides, we must be reminded of one great thing, their is a clear view in the midst of chaos-- blinking, flashing lights of the blood, of Gods love manifested through Jesus Christ." Resurrection Ahead, Praise God! "RESURRECTION IS AHEAD” Shalom, Kingdom Praiser  As the beauty of the Three Roses, bring a sense of comfort in times like these, it is the Holy Trinity that can bring us through the moments of senseless drama. As the birth of a new nation arises; it is The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit that will hold us steadfast. His presence, peace, and power will keep us. Let us put our “Trust” in the one who has never failed us. Let us rejoice and lift our heart and praises to the Holy Trinity.
The Lord is in His Holy Temple; Let all the earth be silent (of all fears, doubts, and worries), our “God is Able.” In Jesus Name We Pray! Shalom, Living To Love & Serve  Pursue Him With Your All. Not just your wants, needs and desires for all His blessings: Pursue the one whose Breathe is in your body, the “BLESSER.”
Think about it like this: The air you breathe belongs to the Creator of all life. If He did not give you the capability to breathe “His Air,” in ( your lungs) where would you be? And think, it’s been this way as long as you have been alive. Out of all the things that God has done this far to get your attention totally on Him, and it still hasn’t worked...all He has to do is just stop the wind from blowing. But then if He did that and you died without having a right relationship with Him... again where would you be? Shalom, Take Time To Consider Your Ways  Let the serenity of this panoramic view, bring you thoughts of God's awesome care of you.
Let His peace be your covering today from the inside out. Be encouraged Children of God, God Has Watch Over You. Love you Children of God, In Jesus Name. Shalom, Love You “Til” Life Eternal  Just a thought from within another thought:
“Remember when the enemy is allowed by God to rise up to get your attention; drop down, bow down, and lift up, your heart, faith, high into the hills from which comes your help.” The move of God in this season is to test our faith in Him and to prepare us for a “mighty move,” in God, and of God. Seeing the wind and feeling the wind is entirely different. Seeing things move around or shifted from place to place has a different impact, than that same wind picking you up and moving you from, “place to place; faith to faith; and glory to glory.” Don’t allow what you see, hear, and feel, have a greater impact on you than who you know, and who is really in control. Don’t let your “problem sight be greater than your God Sight.” Blessings in Jesus Name. Shalom, “You Matter To Me” II Corinthians 4:8-9: [read the whole chapter and be truly blessed] |
