Attributes and Promises of God


 These are all attributes of God or promises for us who are his. They are found in the Psalms. I think I am going to post a few of these each day.....

1.       Blessed are all who take refuge in him
      Amen!

2.       Shield
      Armored up!
3.       Bestows Glory on me

4.       Lifts up my head
      Somedays my head needs lifting alot!


5.       Answers me from his holy hill
      He hears me.

6.       Sustains me
7.       Delivers
8.       Deliverance
9.       Relief
10.   Merciful
      I'm so grateful for his mercy.


11.   Hears my prayer

12.   Hears when we call

13.   Light of your face shines upon us

14.   Fills heart with great joy
      He's the greatest joy I've ever known.

15.   Makes me dwell in safety
      So glad he keeps me safe!

16.   In the morning you hear my voice
      Help me to talk to you every morning Lord.

Encouragement Anyone?


Do you wake up some mornings-discouraged right off the bat! I have been there, believe me! God is so faithful even when we are finding it difficult to come to him with our problems.


So, this morning I am here to let the Lord use me to encourage you and what better way to be encouraged than through scripture!  The Lord keeps speaking Isaiah 51 to me and I know it's to keep me looking to him!

"Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness and who seek the Lord;Look to the rock from which you were cut and to the quarry from which you were hewn; look to Abraham, you father, and to Sarah, who gave you birth. When I called him he was but one, and I blessed him and made him many. The Lord will surely comfort Zion and will look with compassion on all her ruins; he will make her deserts like Eden, her wastelands like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the sound of singing." Isaiah 51:1-3

I am sharing that with you this morning, but I need it just as much as you! I need to be reminded that if I am pursuing righteousness and seeking the Lord that he will comfort me and he will take all my ruins and deserts and make them like Eden.

 Is there anyone with alot of junk that needs to be made into Eden besides just me?

 I need to be reminded that  the Lord is going to take all the dry times in my life and make them alive in him!

Praise the Lord he is faithful! If we just keep  focusing on Jesus and being obedient, he takes care of all the other stuff that surrounds us! Right?

So my friends know this, that no matter how rough your morning has been......
the phone call that made your heart break and put the covers up over your head......
 or the children who were whiny first thing because they didn't get there way.......
no matter what has happened the Lord- if we are living for him- makes it good!

He promises that in Romans 8:28. Let him speak to your heart this morning and show you all the ruins he is rebuilding in your life!

Do you believe he will?I know he will dear friend and he will encourage you like no one else can!
