Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for the joy that You have given me. I do not want to take the fruit of the Holy Spirit for granted. I am blessed to experience Your love, joy and peace, especially in the middle of my trials. Truly You give us peace that passes all understanding. Father, give me a continued love for Your Word and a desire to study it faithfully. I also need the grace to apply it in my daily life. Help all of Your people to esteem Your Word and honor You by keeping it. May we all declare as David did in Psalm 119:11, "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee." I ask in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.

What do you see nurses
What do you see?
Are you thinking
when you are looking at me
A crabbit old woman
not very wise,
Uncertain of habit
with far-away eyes,
Who dribbles her food
and makes no reply,
When you say in a loud voice
‘I do wish you’d try’
Who seems not to notice
the things that you do,
And forever is losing
a stocking or shoe,

Seven Notable miracles in the bible- A study

            I am now led to do a study on seven notable miracles in the bible. There are far more than seven miracles in the bible, but these seven have caught my attention the most, so I have decided to feature them. All show how awesome, powerful and mighty our God really is, yet how merciful He can be too, and that He is always worthy of our praise, honor, gloray, and obedience each and every day.

Creation

This is the very first miracle, rather a series of miracles which brought all the earth, the features on the earth, the animals, plants and so forth into existence, then eventually mankind into existence. I am using both chapters one and two of Genesis to recount this story in full:

(Genesis 1:1)  In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

 

(Genesis 1:2)  The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over...

KING OF HEARTS

Mark 4:30, "And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?"

MARK 4:30-34

The word "kingdom" means "the realm over which a king rules." When applied to God, it could refer to all creation, since "his kingdom ruleth over all" (Ps. 103:19), but the kingdom more often applies to His rule in and through those who are submitted to Him....

                        People today and what it means bible study

I am doing my next teaching study on the way people are today, the way people are becoming more and more self-centered. Society is turning increasingly away from God and doing just what pleases them often without any care for others. The bible did indeed prophesy it in several places and what it means to all, especially the good news today’s evil means to Christians. To start out I will say that today’s attitude is nothing really new. In two separate places in Judges there is the following scripture

(Judges 17:6)  In those days there was no king in Israel. Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

 

The other verse being Judges chapter 21, verse 25, both of which are identical in what they say

Next the first 25 verses of Isaiah chapter 5, though written about Judah and Israel, especially Judah in the time of Manasseh their evilest king, are very true and applicable to people...

TARES AMONG THE WHEAT

Matthew 13:25, "But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way."

MATTHEW 13:24-30

Satan has secretly infiltrated the Church with some of his followers for the purpose of hindering the influence of the Church. This has been a more effective strategy than direct opposition.

These tares that are spoken of refer...

God does not get rushed. He is never pressured. He can however be talked into good things - it's called prayer. We have to be a believer and have faith to receive whatever we ask for in prayer. The power of prayer is an awesome tool.

Saying things like "There's no hope," tells God He doesn't have the power to fix your situation. Nothing is beyond His repair.

Ipersonally believe that some of us don’t hear voices, but we get instincts and signs that guide us to the answer of some of our prayers.

Wishing for things will never be a substitute for praying for things.

See Matthew 21:22

When we pray, believe that we will receive.

Keep saying to yourself: “I believe and I receive” Joy and pleasure come with believing, so make sure you keep praying for the right things. (Not just the bad things in life, but the good)

 

We need to...
