    God Rescued Me

    Into the nothingness My young mind goes Seeking nothing but What might gently Appear like a breeze Whistling through the Pines of a lonely village Where there is no one But the mournful sound Of a hollow echo and I Wonder why I sense Something far beyond Any experience of my Young human mind And...

    The Lord Will Vindicate Me ( Psalm:138 )

    His Love Endures Forever, He is with us wherever we go, whatever we do, whoever we are. We can't say that God has abandoned me, or He is not with me, as the psalm says, His love endures forever. In the common vernacular, it is our own fault for taking our eye off the ball. We need to trust...

    God Gives Life To The Dead ( Romans 4:17 )

    He Calls Things Into Being That Were Not, We live by faith through the Son of God, by the belief that Christ died and rose again and in scripture it says He will never die again. We died with Jesus and we will rise with Him again. All He does with the love of God and with the love of God that...

    Come To Me With All Your Heart ( Hosea:14 )

    Don't Let Fear Keep Us Apart, God is making an invitation to all so that all can know that He is talking to everyone. From experience I see people stray away from God or as it is in Christian vernacular; backsliding. But here God says, no matter what you have done, no matter how bad you think...

    Christ Has Set Us Free ( Gal.6 )

    We Are No Longer Burdened By Slavery, So we wonder what that burden was; it was the chains of the old law. We are no longer shackled by that yoke. The old law led to death and so to be tethered to the old law is putting a burden on us that was removed by Christ crucified. Scripture says...

    His Divine Power Has Given Us Everything We Need ( 2Peter:1 )

    To Live A Godly Life Through Him, God is so wonderful, He doesn't leave a single stone unturned. He sort of micro manages us through His words in scripture. He foresees things which we are unable to do and unable to know. I've heard many say God has turned away from me and even if I pray He...

    God Satisfies The Thirsty ( Psalm:107 )

    And Fills The Hungry, He brings light to our darkness and saves us from distress. As Jesus said: let all who thirst, let them come to the water. In one case, God is actually saying to the people to rely on Him for all of their physical needs. With Jesus, He is telling us about our spiritual...

    If You Were Raised With Christ ( Col.3 )

    Seek What Is Above, If we really want to grow in the Spirit of God, we need to concentrate on Christ. When we acknowledge that the Holy Spirit is within us, as Paul says, we become a new creation. So when we become a new creation, we can't go back. Our hearts become more and more reliant on...

    Jesus Said To Them Come With Me To A Quiet Place ( Mark:6 )

    Come By Yourselves And Get Some Rest, He said this to His apostles after the feeding of five thousand. Sometimes we need to retreat and rest as Jesus said. The world is full of toil, trials and disenchantment at times. It is not wrong to leave it behind for a while and just be with God. In...

    The Lord Is Close To The Broken Hearted ( Psalm:34 )

    He Saves Those Who Are Crushed In Spirit, No matter how deep is the hole we have dug, God in His glorious mercy sets us free. Our first inclination when our life falls into that hole is that we give up. We abandon God and then we even want to blame Him for our woes. We need to take Job as an...

    Whoever Wishes To Save His Love Will Lose It ( Mark:8 )

    Whoever Loses His Life For My Sake Will Save It, At that point Peter tried to scold Jesus presumably that He should save His own life and not give in to those who are testing Him and telling Him to show them signs of God. These were the Pharisees who were not living in the love of God but...

    You Lord Are Our Father ( Isaiah:64 )

    You Are The Potter We Are The Clay We Are All The Work Of Your Hand, We give ourselves away to Him and in all that we do, we do with His love. We are not called by Him to do great things, He calls us to pass on His love to the world. We do things with humility and consideration so that with...

    All People Are Like Grass ( 1Peter1:24 )

    And All Their Glory Is Like The Flowers Of The Field, We were born on this earth and we will die on this earth. We will be redeemed and purified as we enter God's paradise in the next world. Silver and gold will not get us there. Diamonds and pearls are of no value. Only the blood of the lamb...

    Truly Truly I Tell You ( John:6 )

    He Who Believes In Me Has Eternal Life, So Jesus puts that in the present so that we know we have it here and now. So that refers to the quality of life that we have when we accept Jesus and follow Him every day. It is not something illusive that we might find one day or something we might...
