PROPHETIC IMAGES THAT GIVE YOU
ENCOURAGEMENT, COMFORT, STRENGTH, AND FAITH IN GOD
"BUT GOD"
Published April 12, 2014
This morning I was thinking about what my sister had prayed over me the other night, "But God, But God, But God". When ever I remember those two small words, "But God", I can hope again and faith begins to rise over the difficult places I'm walking through. Those things are not impossible any more, But God! Remember, "But God", when it seems there is no way out, "But God". When you don't know what to do, "But God", when you need wisdom, healing, finances, families mended, "But God, But God, But God!" No matter what is happening in your life, But God!
Ephesians 2:4-5 says,
"But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)."
"FAITHFULNESS"
Published April 11, 2014
This morning I looked out at the colorful sunrise peeping over the trees, it's announcing to all the start of a brand new day. This scripture came to mind for us this day from Lamentations 3:21-23,
"This I recall to my mind,cTherefore I have hope. The Lord’s lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness."
The book of Lamentations was written in the darkest of times yet, Jeremiah remembered the love and faithfulness of God. God's love for him was brand new each morning. He received the hope he needed to bring Him through that difficult time. Remember God's love for you is new this day. His love will never fail you.
"HOLE PUNCHER"
Published April 9, 2014
I see a hole puncher this morning. A hole puncher makes holes so papers are not lost but held in place.
A scripture from 1 Corinthians 15:58 came to my mind, "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord."
Beloved, know this, that all that is done in the Lord will be rewarded, even a cup of water given in His name, brings reward, "Matt. 10:42." So don't give up, our God is a rewarder!
Be firm, immovable, firmly persistent, let the light of God's goodness through you. Shine bright so your Heavenly Father is glorified, "Matt.5:16." God says, what is done in Him is not in vain, it will bear fruit.
"THE DOLPHIN"
Published April 8, 2014
I see a dolphin leaping out of the water. They are often accredited with saving people from drownings and shark attacks. There are stories that have been told of how dolphins make themselves useful as guides through treacherous waters. Isaiah 12:2 says,
"Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song; He also is become my salvation."
Let's paraphrase that verse:
"Behold, no matter what your going through this day, God is the one who saves you, He is your deliverance; your aid, your victory, your prosperity, your health, your help, your salvation, your welfare. So I am bold, confident, secure, sure and careless. I have hope, I trust.
"DESTINY"
Published April 7, 2014
I heard the Word, 'Destiny" for us this day. God wants to remind you this day, that your life counts, You are a person of Destiny. God has plans for you, that are bigger then you could possibly Imagine. The Lord is declaring to us in, Jeremiah 29:11:
"For I know the plans that I have for you, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope."
And in Ephesians 3:20: The Lord speaks through the Apostle Paul telling us, " God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us."
Let's keep on believing in His faithful love to us and let us, let His Power work mightily in us this day. We are people of destiny!
