Good evening once again,
"Grace (spiritual blessing and favor) be to all of you and [heart] peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah)." Philemon 3. Blessed (happy--with life-joy and satisfaction, apart from your outward condition). Praise the Lord, this is possible!
Today, although busy, this kept rolling through my mind from a song. "Thou my best thought, by day or by night, waking or sleeping, thy presence my light." Yes, from the song Be Thou My Vision. No matter what situation we find ourselves in, He is our promised Light. Praise the Lord!
Remember Isaiah 41:10? It says, "Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice." I am praising the Lord! Are you? This is His promise to us, His beloved.
Psalm 34: 1-4 says, "I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My life makes its boast in the Lord; let the humble and afflicted hear and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together. I sought (inquired of) the Lord and required Him [of necessity and on the authority of His Word], and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears." Praise the Lord!
How many of you know someone going to have surgery? How many do you know that are troubled in heart, mind and soul? How many do you know that are completely in the dark of this world? How many do you know that are alone? Hey, are you one of these? Then, there is a Light from the Lord Jesus Christ to shine on your life if...you put your trust in Him. He offers fresh life today. A life no more in bondage to fear and the sins pulling you deeper into the pit. Be free in the name of Jesus Christ today! Praise the Lord!
With all the many distractions around me, I found that my thoughts returned over and over again to my Lord. He is my best thought! All others take a lower place. I pray that it will always be that way. That the Spirit of the Living God will bring victory in my life. I will say it again, Praise the Lord!
Tonight I am still busy with my granddaughters, but wanted to take the time to share with you before the evening closes. Please take care of you before the Throne of Grace. Stay in His presence and sing for joy as you delight in the Lord. He is our soon coming King! Praise the Lord!
Abundance is...Jesus, my best thought
