Trouble? Trust Him…
March 7, 2008
Trust me in your times of trouble, and I will rescue you, and you will give me glory.
Psalm 50:15
I’m feeling this song in my spirit this morning…He Is My One Desire!!!
One Desire – Hillsong from the Blessed CD
You gave it all for me
My soul desire, my everything
And all I am is devoted to You
How could I fail to see
You are the love that rescued me
And all I am is devoted to You
And oh, how could I not be moved
Lord here with You
So have Your way in me
Cause Lord, there is just one thing
That I will seek
This is my cry
My one desire
Is to be where You are, Lord
Now and forever
It’s more than a song
My one desire
Is to be with You
Is to be with You, Jesus
Healed – Faith – Trust
February 21, 2008
For she thought to herself, “If I can just touch his clothing, I will be healed!”
Mark 5:28And he said to her, “Daughter your faith has made you well. Go in peace. You have been healed!”
Mark 5:34But Jesus ignored their comments and said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid. Just trust me.”
Mark 5:36Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.
Hebrews 11:1And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him.
Hebrews 11:6
Convinced
January 27, 2008
The leaders were soon convinced that the LORD had sent Moses and Aaron. And when they realized that the LORD had seen their misery and was deeply concerned for them, they all bowed their heads and worshiped.
Exodus 4:31
This passage touched me this morning. I realize that I could not be a child of God until I was convinced that Jesus was born, lived on this earth, died on a cross and is resurrected from the dead and living. We all have to be convinced before we can be His child. That word just keeps popping out to me.

Word of God … Speak
October 19, 2007
And the Lord came and called as before, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel replied, “Speak, your servant is listening.”
1 Samuel 3:10
Word of God Speak – Mercyme
I’m finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it’s okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say
[CHORUS]
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You’re in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness
Word of God speak
I’m finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice
[REPEAT CHORUS 2x]
I’m finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it’s okay
Parted His Garments
October 18, 2007
And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.
Matthew 27:35 (KJV)
I read this and something within me stirred. When I think of the garments being parted I think of how each of us have been given robes because of Christ who gave to each of us. We are clothed in fine linen white and clean (Rev. 19:14). Christ put on the robe that was dipped in blood so that we might be made clean in Him.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1 (KJV)
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
Revelation 19:13 (KJV)
Thank you Adonai!
Planted Along a Riverbank
October 11, 2007
But blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they go right on producing delicious fruit.
Jeremiah 17:7-8
A Wide River
September 20, 2007
The LORD will be our Mighty One. He will be like a wide river of protection that no enemy can cross.
Isaiah 33:21
You Must Come In At the Door
God’s got a way…That you can’t go over
God’s got a way That you can’t go under
God’s got a way That you can’t go around Him
You must come in at the door
You must come in at the door
He’s the way
the truth and the life
if you want to see Jesus you’ve got to live right
you must be saved
from all of your sin
Marvel not
you must be born again
You must come in at the door
