TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
|
When you accept Jesus as your
Lord and Savior, not only is your eternity secure, but you immediately become
a child of the Most High God. You instantly have an Everlasting Father! Think
about that word everlasting. That means before the beginning of time, the
Father was there. He was waiting for you to accept Him and become a child of
His.
I can only imagine that God
was anticipating that day just like a father would anticipate the birth of
his child in the natural. I can imagine that each day He would think, “Is it
today?”
I don’t know what your
experience has been with your earthly father, but God is a good and perfect
Father. He loves you with an everlasting love. He loves everything about you
so much that He notices when a single hair falls from your head. He accepts
you just the way you are, and He loves you enough to guide you and work His
character in you. And, He will be your Father from now until eternity! He
will never leave you nor forsake you. So thank Him for being your Everlasting
Father today!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Everlasting Father,
thank You for loving me today and for always being with me. Help me to
understand Your love more so that I may know You better. Let Your love flow
through me so that others may see Your goodness and come to know You as their
Father also in Jesus’ name. Amen.

When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through” The answer is NO , as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing- and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
