Haven of truth:Anchored in His Word

Remember that abiding does NOT mean just “hanging out.” Abiding is an interpersonal relationship and exchange with God, His Holy Spirit. Make the time for Him…He did so for you when He saw you from afar and came to hang on the cross. John 15:11, Isaiah 61;3, II Corinthians 6:10.

Seeking His righteousness and His presence is powerful. In studying today the Holy Spirit gave this to me…originally the quote came from a man named John F. Kennedy; “ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country.” So, I pose; ask not what God can do for you, but what can you do for God. He calls us to be about His business and share His truth. Giving others the op...

Remember to seek HIS truth and knowledge, so that you will KNOW Him and not just about Him. Seek His face in the Word and do not be deceived by this that may or may not know about Him. The claim of knowing about Him is many times not accurate anyway. Always seek the truth and as David tells us in his poem, You say to seek and I tell my heart Your face I shall seek…Psalm 32:7, Romans 1:6, Genesis 3...

Remember always that though we are weak, in Him we are strong. In confession of our weakness we draw strength and all things are possible through Christ who strengthens me. We are children of the sovereign Lord and heirs and joint heirs with Jesus Christ in the Kingdom of Heaven and we need act like it more that we do. Walk boldly and upright in righteous boldness. II Corinthians 12:9&10, Acts 17:...

God loves to spend time with us and when we show Him that we love it too; make time to share with Him. Time seems to be a resource that we actually have plenty of and yet complain about it. We won’t share with loved ones, but in a limited capacity and we always have a reason for not sharing time….sacrifice time for God and talk with Him.

Mark 12, Psalm 12:3-8, 13:5&6, 145:20, 121:7&8, Deuteronomy 4:29, Hebrews 10:23.

Sacrifice time to God and He WILL honor that. So many claim to just not have time. Why? Because YOU decide that time is so much more important to yourself. Remember that Jesus came to serve and not be served, His time was ALWAYS bent toward others, but He made time to spend with God and be in prayer. He started the day in prayer and thankful for the day coming and ending the day in prayer. Do not...

God is with us and faith will remind us of this truth. Be willing to sacrifice of ours to the one that sacrificed for us. He left His throne, His crown and His kingdom to come and die for me; as well as you so that we would have freely given, the opportunity to be forgiven, repent and adopted into the Holy Family as heirs and joint heirs with Jesus Christ. So, don’t be so quick to say I can’t when...

We are taught in the righteousness of the Lord and we are clothed in His righteousness; so we move through this plain of existence in that way. It may require us to cut out individuals that are not healthy to be around and continually detract from your walking upright, boldly and working at being in a walk with God. If they are indeed a hinderance, then say goodbye. No regrets and walk forward wit...

In all things lift up a hallelujah and praise Him. That is at times a difficult thing to do because we have not let go of the very things we are praying about. We tend to get in our own way and that of God. Raise a hallelujah and step aside; no matter what. Psalm 145, 4:6-8, Revelation 21:23, II Peter 3;13l, Exodus 34.

His authority is real and is truth, He is truth. We are told this in the Bible in several places: Jesus is the WAY the TRUTH, the. BREAD OF LIFE, the LIGHT. Jesus is all of those and MY KING, MY LORD. Psalm 43:4, 63:7,&8, 119:105.

Take time for God and seek Him with as Jesus tells us; with all our hearts, soul and minds. Focus on that thing that is MOST important. Exodus 3:14, I Corinthians 3:16, Psalm 25:14&15, Psalm 105:2-4, 27:4-8, Genesis 24:63, Matthew 22:37.

In and through the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, we are both cleansed and clothed in righteousness. As with a bride and groom: they can be readily identified by those that see them and in His righteousness, should it not bear the same with us as TRUE believers? Not only as we are seen by others, but in the reflection outwardly of that which is in us and that must be God’s love and righteousness. Ps...

We must practice and exercise trust in God. Trust and faith with Him are indeed synonymous. We must learn to let go and not to cling to things that we tend to THINK we can and don’t want to let go and just get out of our Owen way and get out of His way. Rather difficult for God to do for you if you won’t move over and allow him. So often we look to access blame on God and the reality is, we have d...

As we read through the Psalms that David composed in poems and songs, we read that indeed he is a man after God’s heart. Yes I use the present tense because he is in heaven and I’ll know him and speak with him. David was in turmoils and had issues that came in thoughts and in physical forms as well. God’s Word tells us that these things will take place and we are reminded that they will happen. Pe...

He calls us into having a PERSONAL relationship with Him. Much more than just knowing about Him, but knowing Him. Spending time with Him. Giving of that oh so precious thing that we reluctantly share with others and frequently won’t share; not even with loved ones or those that are called that, but time is so guarded and held so tightly that oft times we miss opportunities that are right with us....

We find as we look around us that so many have come and attempt to bend truth, which is just a lie. If it’s not His truth it’s simply a lie, period. Perverting the Word of God is the manipulation of His word and attempting to get others to follow what is not truth and ignoring the precepts of God in declaration of self worth and removing God and Jesus from the center. Galatians 1:1-11, Psalm 131:2...

Jesus teaches from the sermon on the mount, not just in the beatitudes that actually come from and through trials. The temperance that is given through these things. He teaches us that the rain comes and fall on all and doesn’t just fall on the unrighteous, but on the righteous as well. We all get wet. Read and listen to Him speak in Matthew 5. Don’t try to get around or teary to circumvent those...

The breath of God is in us each and every day when we rise. Dit is His breath in our lungs that gives us the opportunity to move about in the course of the day HE has created and knows, not us. It is His day and He guides us through His spirit. Psalm 14, Matthew 8:23-27, Romans 8:28&38, Psalm 11.

Ezekiel 37:1-10 is the visitation of Ezekiel by the Spirit to the valley of dry bones. These bones were that of the nation of Israel that had turned its back on Hashem and worshipped false idols, sacrificed to those false idols even to the blood of their own children. Seek His truth and seek His face and the Spirit so to quicken you for Him.

Spending time with God and in His truth is a delight and He desires this for us. It pleases Him and blesses Him as it blesses us. Don’t try to figure it out and just move forward in faith. God is not as so many describe Him to be; sitting on a great throne and sternly looking out over all creation. God smiles, delights in us, wants to spend time with sus on a personal level. If it were not so and...

Psalm 143:8, 145:3, 145:8&9; Glory in His holy name and relish HIs Love that He pours out onto us and into our lives. It is very difficult for many to comprehend this, but if you let go of the thought with our mindset and seek with spiritual sight and look to the truth; you will learn and KNOW that we cannot truly love without His love in us. Stay in prayer and look up to see that our king is alwa...

The fundamental rules of journalism that are pretty much thrown out in these days of turmoil and sensationalism. Those questions are applicable also to my Lord God and the answers are in the Bible. The infallible truths that speak to Hashem; the Lord thy God. He is the Great I Am, He is our Heavenly Father, He is all around us, in us Withersoever, Always, through His grace and power and because of...

Acts 2:38-40, Isaiah 42:3, 54:10, Romans 8:26. God doesn’t shop and compare your fruits to others; He desires your fruits period. He knows that we are weak, wounded and bruised and calls us anyway, so why be caught up with comparisons to others and doing so ourselves. That is the white noise of the enemy. Do not heed; hear it, recognize and rebuke it. Hear and listen to God’s word, seek His truth...

Consider always that the only time that is of any import is the now and in that; we are eagerly practicing His presence and seeking the “hereness” of God. Seek Him and He will be found, seek Him and He will make His presence known to them that ardently search His Word. Be eager and look as if it is key, which it indeed is. Make Him central and not self. Remember His truth and promises. Deuteronomy...
