Are You in the Right Position?

“Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before His presence with singing.” Psalm 100:2……………….

If you are a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, are you in the right position to be used by God to bring glory to His name? To serve Him by helping to build His Kingdom of followers? The Holy Spirit placed on my heart 12 ways in which it’s important we who follow Jesus are in the right position when it comes to service to God.

POSITION IN OUR HEARTS. Is Christ above all else in our hearts & lives? POSIT...

The Sheep, The Shepherd, & You

“Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.” Psalm 100:3………………………

“The Lord is my shepherd;

I shall not want.

He makes me to lie down in green pastures;

He leads me beside the still waters.

He restores my soul;

He leads me in the paths of righteousness

For His name’s sake.

 

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil;

For You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they com...

When God Tells Us to Do Nothing

“Be still, and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth!” Psalm 46:10

I don’t know about you, but I’m a doer. If something needs to be done, I feel it should get done. If something needs to be figured out, it should be figured out. If an answer is needed, the answer should be found. If something needs to be fixed, it should be fixed. If there is a need, the need should be met. I’m a 100% Jewish Christ follower, and the Jewish people are known for...

Your Gift in God’s Hands

““And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35…………..

Little gifts are little gifts, aren’t they, but they’re not necessarily as very little as they seem when orchestrated by the Spirit of God and involve the sacrifice of one of His children and are given in Christ’s name in Christ’s love for the glory of the Lord. Little did a sweet beloved friend of mine know when the Spirit of God told her to drop off two “anonymous” gift-...

This Man is Going to Hell

“The fool has said in his heart,

“There is no God.”

They are corrupt,

They have done abominable works,

There is none who does good.

The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men,

To see if there are any who understand, who seek God.

They have all turned aside,

They have together become corrupt;

There is none who does good,

No, not one.” Psalm 14:1-3………..

 

“that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will b...

Through the Roof

“And again He entered Capernaum after some days, and it was heard that He was in the house. Immediately many gathered together, so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. And He preached the word to them. Then they came to Him, bringing a paralytic who was carried by four men. And when they could not come near Him because of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where He was. So when they had broken through, they let down the bed on which the paralytic was lying. W...

My Friend & the Infusion Clinic

“If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” Luke 11:11-13…………

Some people are so filled with the Spirit of God, have so filled themselves with the Word of God in their own personal...

Words of Encouragement

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.” Psalm 19:14………..

“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.” Eph. 4:29………..

“Thank you for your words of encouragement,” a dear friend wrote me one day in response to my calling and writing her to offer her love, hope, encouragement, and, most importantly, scriptures from God’s Wor...

Sacrificial Love

“and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.” 2 Cor. 5:15…………….

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.” 2 Cor. 15:13…………..

“And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.” Mt. 10:38………….

“You continue to show me what sacrificial love is,” a beloved friend and sister in the Lord wrote me one day.

I immediately burst into tears. Why? First, I wa...

Pray for the Hairdresser

“But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.” Mt. 6:6

I don’t have the greatest memory, I cross paths with tons of people regularly, I have a heart for the Lord and for ministry above all else, and love Him beyond measure, and have an extreme love of people because of Him, so it’s not at all uncommon that I pray for people all the time. All sorts of peopl...
