This Week's Scripture September 9 - September 15, 2012     Nuggets of Reflection: Refuse to let anything separate you from God's love. When going through hardships, you must acquire (or even beforehand develop) an inward certainty that God loves you no matter what. Going through hardships, doesn't mean that God has taken away His love. In fact, it's His way to take what devil meany for harm; He will make for good. When others begin to see how much you love and trust God wholeheartedly, whether during the good or the bad, they, too, will be fully persuaded in God's love for them. Promise yourself that you will hold on to God's everlasting, unconditional, heart-warming love.           Psalms 5:11-12 But let all those rejoice who put their  trust in You; Let them ever shout for joy, because You defend them; Let those also who love Your name Be joyful in You. For You, O LORD, will ...

This Week's Scripture September 2 - September 8, 2012 Nuggets of Reflection: Being prosperous and in good health are part of our salvation/benefit package in Christ. When you discipline your body, you can be at your very best for God's service. You can do more for God, if you are a healthy vessel. You can't experience true prosperity until you have God in your life. Before you can have prosperity, you must have a priority. And that priority has to be God. We are to appreciate what we HAVE....not whine and complain about what we HAVE NOT.   Psalms 1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he ...

This Week's Scripture August 5 - August 11, 2012 Nuggets of Reflection: You can't do anything without the empowering of the Spirit of God. When we tap into the power of God, we can overcome any obstacle that may come our way. God wants His children to know that the truest source of power does not come through might and power from humans, but by the anointing of the Holy Spirit. One way to tap into the Holy Spirit's power is to pray. Believe in the POWER of prayer. With the empowering of God's Spirit, the IMPOSSIBLE becomes POSSIBLE in the name of Jesus.   Psalms 66:1-7 (Praise God for His Awesome Works) Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth! Sing out the honor of His name; Make His praise glorious. Say to God, “How awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies shall submit themselves to You. All the earth shall worship You And sing praises to You; They shall sing praises to Your name.” Selah Co...

Psalm 18:1-3,30-33,46 I will love You, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; So shall I be saved from my enemies. As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the Lord is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him. For who is God, except the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God? It is God who arms me ...

Strip away the old, hard areas of my heart so that the new can come to surface. When God creates something, He changes the order of it.

Because of your great mercy wipe away my sins! Wash away all my evil and make me clean from my sin! I recognize my faults; I am always conscious of my sins. I have sinned against you—only against you— and done what you consider evil.   So you are right in judging me; you are justified in condemning me.

I have many of my close girlfriends (more like my sisters) who are expecting great things from God in 2012. In addition to that, they are longing to get closer to God like never before. They have dreams and goals that God has planted in their hearts. Every time we talk about their plans for 2012, they are giddy just like a kid in a candy store. My girlfriends are very much excited about what lies ahead for them spiritually, physically, and financially. However, along with all the giddyness and excitement come attacks from satan. He doesn't want us to get excited about our future; and part of it is because satan knows how bright our future is in Jesus. So, he will do everything in is power to diminish our hopes, our dreams, and our faith in God. With that being said, I thought Psalm 91 is one of many bible passages that fits best when it comes to praying for protection from the enemy. Whatever area in your life that the devil is attacking, plead the blood of Jesus on it and...

Psalm 42 AS the deer pants for the water brooks, So pants my soul for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say to me, "Where is your God?" When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go with the multitude; I went with them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast. Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him For the help of His countenance. O my God, my soul is cast down within me; Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan, And from the heights of Hermon, From the Hill Mizar. Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; All Your waves and billows have gone over me. The LORD will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, And in the night His song shall be with me— A prayer to ...

Psalm 149:1-6 PRAISE the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, And His praise in the assembly of saints. Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. Let them praise His name with the dance; Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp. For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation. Let the saints be joyful in glory; Let them sing aloud on their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand, Free Twitter Backgrounds

Psalm 20 MAY the LORD answer you in the day of trouble; May the name of the God of Jacob defend you; May He send you help from the sanctuary, And strengthen you out of Zion; May He remember all your offerings, And accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah May He grant you according to your heart's desire, And fulfill all your purpose. We will rejoice in your salvation, And in the name of our God we will set up our banners! May the LORD fulfill all your petitions. Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven With the saving strength of His right hand. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the LORD our God. They have bowed down and fallen; But we have risen and stand upright. Save, LORD! May the King answer us when we call.

Psalm 111:1-4 Praise the LORD! I will praise the LORD with my whole heart, In the assembly of the upright and in the congregation. Heavenly Father I give you all the praise.

Marvelous are your works. We take joy in everything you have done and everything that you are about to do. His work is honorable and glorious, And His righteousness endures forever. I give you all the glory and honor for all that you have done. Lord you are good and your mercy and righteousness endure forever. He has made His wonderful works to be remembered; The LORD is gracious and full of compassion. I will never cease to give you praise and glory for all your works. I stand in awe of you. You are a loving, compassionate, and faithful God!!

Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, And your justice as the noonday.

Psalm 27:1-6 THE LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked came against me To eat up my flesh, My enemies and foes, They stumbled and fell. Though an army may encamp against me, My heart shall not fear; Though war may rise against me, In this I will be confident. One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple. For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
