A slice of Hope through the fog life brings

Hello everyone, I hope you are well. Today I was reading a bible plan on the you version  bible app called make today matter, and init it spoke about weaknesses. Which got me really thinking, it brought to my attention how God used my weakNess today to overcome fear and bring out his strength through me. It's a funny thing weakness, we  the human race don't really like to see ourselves as having weakness do we. I hope today I can encourage you through a little testimony that our King of Kings and Lord of Lords will overcome any fear tactics the enemy uses against you. My weakNess/fear is women, yeah of all things, the same sex as me. That stands back throughout my life, rejection and being looked down on. Stuff like that. But that's not the point of today. Before we moved down to Cambridge I struggled to the extreme, to spend time with women on my own. I'd panic and my heart would race so fast, there would be times I wouldn't be able to push a single word out o...

Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous.  Do not be afraid or terrified  because of them, for the  Lord  your God goes with you;  he will never leave you nor forsake  you.” 2 Corinthians 1: 21,22   Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us,  set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. who are you? I'm not talking what's your name! Or what do you do. I'm talking who are you. If those verses don't help what about these.. Ephesians 2:10 For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Jeremiah 1: 5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart, I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. convinced yet? do you know who you truly are? How about this.... Psalm 139: 14  I praise you   because ...

Ever feel like God is a million miles away? Maybe in life you've come across times where trials, challenges and obstacles that make you feel like you are surrounded by a pack of wolves or even a pride of lions. And physically there looks to be no way out. You feel alone, weighed down, feel like there's nothing you can do to make it stop. Or maybe you've been put in trial of court for your faith. Maybe even jailed. I don't know what you've faced for your faith in Jesus. Many people will be used to stop, silence and maybe kill you if it means the devil will succeed in erasing the Christian faith. Although they don't know they are being used by our enemy. Don't let them silence you in sharing what jesus has done in and through you, your testimony is one of the greatest weapons. It gives people goals, a hope that if you can make it through so can they. Let's look at Job in the bible, he like you and me was an ordinary person just getting on with his...

Psalm 118:24 24  This   is   the day the   Lord   has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Life is a mystery don't you think. I think a roller coaster is a great way to explain it. You have the ups and downs, you turns, your twists, maybe a loop de loop moment. Roller coasters are built in various different ways and they all start differently. Some fast and some crawling up a steep slopes. Life's abit like that, so many different things come into our lives, some for the better some to tear us down. Some times we feel like we are hitting a brick wall, some times life is just a breeze. We may get comfortable, or find ourselves too stressed to sleep and/or relax. Often we feel we've failed, or we aren't enough. There are days were your so excited you could explode with joy. I don't know where you are in this present moment, but no matter what, every day is a day to praise the Lord. I know there are days you know you should be grateful but your ...

🎵Give me a heart like yours, cause mine is so unless aware🎵 I just love that picture about scaring the devil when we wake up. We need to get to the point of realising how big our God is and how tiny the obstacles the devil puts our way truly are. God has really been showing me and putting on my heart, his grace, how much he loves me (us) and how much we do not need to fear because of how big he is. After all he is our daddy. And a daddy who truly loves his child will move heaven and earth to make sure his child is taken care of. If this doesn't give you the chills then I don't know what will. Do you feel so tiny right now, I do, in a good way of course. I'm so glad our heavenly Father has enlightened me of who he is and I'm not lost in this world. And if you are not yet there with jesus, don't be discouraged, God will not stop with your life till the fulfilment is complete. God spoke to me today through a piece of cake. Yes that's right, cake. Of al...

1) never again will I say "I can't" because I can do all things through Christ Jesus - philippians 4:13 2) never again will I say "I don't have" because my God shall supply all my needs according to his riches - philippians 4:19 3) never again will I say "I am afraid" because God has not given me a spirit of cowardice but a spirit of power - 2 Timothy 1:7 4) never again will I say "I lack faith" because God has given to every man a measure of faith - Romans 12:3 5) never again will I say "I am weak" because the Lord is the strength of my life - psalm 27:1 6) never again will I say "Satan is powerful" because greater is the God that is in me than the evil in the world - 1 John 4:4 7) never again will I say "I am defeated" because we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus - Romans 8:37 8) never again will I say "I lack wisdom" because Christ has become for us the wis...

There is no wall his love can not pull down. There is no chain his love can not break. There is no barrier his love can not shatter to the ground. Even the curtain that separated us from the Holy place in the synagogue was ripped in two when Jesus gave up His spirit to God and died on the cross. The cross could not hold him forever. The grave could not contain him. Not even a huge bolder could stop him from rising and stepping out. Nothing can stop the almighty God. Nothing is too small for his care. Nothing is too big for his power to break through and conquer. You may have done things you regret. Said hurtful things. You may have addictions you can't shake. Or have got past it but are still sensitive about it. Or maybe someone has hurt you, to an extent that it's traumatised you, scarred you for life. Through out life you may have been labeled which has affected your self esteem. so many things affect us in our every day life. To us life may just be one big mess. We often ...

🎶My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, There's nothing that he cannot do. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, There's nothing that he cannot do. The rivers are his, the mountains are his, The stars are his handiwork too. My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, There's nothing that he cannot do.🎶 faith is a wonderful gift yet we as humans like to complicate it. Every day we put our faith in physical things such as buses and taxis, we have faith we will arrive where we need to be alive. we have faith in chairs, that they will hold our weight and not break. we have faith that God exists. (Hebrew 11:6 6   And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.) We have many examples of ordinary people through faith in the word of God doing extraordinary things. People such as moses, he had a stutter, he killed someone, even told God he had cho...
