Prayer
What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the Lord our God is near us whenever we pray to him. Deuteronomy 4:7 It is so sweet to be able to pray to God. When we pray to God, He is near us. God is ready to hear and aid us at all times, just like he was with the Hebrew people. God was near, hearing, ready to help, interested, vigilant and active in all the details of His people. He is that way today. He is near us, He is ready to help us, He is interested in us. God is vigilant and…

The Holy Spirit and Protection
My family and I have traveled a lot in May. Some of it has been relaxing, some of it has been intense. On the first trip, we had some huge things we had to fix on our big van. We had the protection of our Triune God. I am amazed at how far we made it on our trip, and nothing bad happened to us. The rotors were really bad. The next trip we took was within our home state. I ask my bible study ladies to keeps us in their prayers. Our leader listens to the Holy Spirit and then shared what the Holy Spirit said to her. All…

“How much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” Luke 11: 9-10, 13 Are you a Christ-follower? A believer? A Christian? God has promised the gift of the baptism of the Holy Spirit to you. God wants you to receive His gift. You don’t have to, and it’s not forced upon you. It’s a gift you have to ask for. First of all, do you want the Holy Spirit? All you have to do is pray and ask for the gift. After you ask, keep praying until you receive it. Sometimes it will happen all at once, and sometimes you have to wait, and…

Reflection Day
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10 Today is Reflection Day! I love reflection day. It’s a time for me to go back and reflect on what God has spoken to me about. It gives me time to pray and seek God about what he wants to change in my life. It gives me time to make a game plan of putting action to what God is telling me and asking of me. Reflection Day gives me a slower pace to grasp what God is telling me. It gives me more time to…

The Apple of God’s Eye
Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings, Psalm 17:8 When I hear the phrase apple of your eye, it makes me think of someone special to a person. Well, according to this verse, we are! We are special; we are loved. We are cared for by God. The Psalmist is using word pictures to teach about God’s love and care for His faithful people. The apple of the eye is referring to the pupil of the eye. This is a metaphor for something that is cherished and valued. Doesn’t this make you excited that you…
