Be not afraid when all the earth is shaking....

"Abide in Me, and I will abide in you." When all the earth is shaking, we need not fear. Get into God's Holy Place, His Throne Room, through worship and you'll find Him! We enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise... so worship and He'll meet you there. It is in His presence that you will find peace, safety, provision, guidance, love. Once you are in His presence, in His Holy Place... let Him speak to you... be quiet and listen. He speaks through His Word, through godly counsel, and to you directly to your heart.

Over time, as your heart starts to learn how to hear Him, you will find you hear Him often through the day, more and more.... He will bring scriptures to your mind to encourage you, He will whisper to you when you are about to go in a wrong direction, He will envelope you in His love just at the moment you need a warm hug, He will never leave you and will give you comfort when you are lonely, He will become the Lover of your Soul.

So be not afraid.   Worship Him.  He is worthy of our praise.  Peace, be still.   Shhhh... He is speaking.

Where is your focus?

FOOD FOR TODAY:

Nothing more to add to the following Words from the Lord, if we will but meditate on them, letting them bring truths to our heart... not reading them through just once, but many times... seeking God for revelatory knowledge to release us from any anxiousness we may have. Anxiety is really the opposite of faith. It is not trusting in God. We must choose who we trust, by an act of our will.. by choosing to trust God, we are acting and causing faith to grow within ourselves. His Word is true... so therefore if He says be anxious for nothing... we should trust that He has a greater plan and will take care of whatever we are getting into anxiety over. Faith... acting on His promises... choosing to trust our Father!! Thank You Lord!!

Philippians 4:6-8 (New King James Version)
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 
8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

Want to be used by God more???

Ever want to be used by God more, but no money, no idea of how, and no open doors?

Think on this: He has given us the greatest weapon to advance His Kingdom...  it is free to us to use, available all the time, and all we have to do is give up a bit of our time.  Even Apostle Paul said he used this weapon more than all, and to use it constantly.

So what is this Weapon?    It is PRAYER!!

Pour out your heart on behalf of others to God, and expect Him to answer!

Psalms 116:1 "I love the Lord, because He heard me and answered my prayer."

Mark 11:24 "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." 

National Day of Prayer is May 5th... every day should be.  Let's use our weapon, the Sword of the Spirit-- His Word, in Praying for others!!!
