Nothing Like The Word

"...the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." John 6:63 "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever." Isaiah 40:8 "Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him." Proverbs 30:5

"1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." Hebrews 12:1-2 How do you lay aside your sins & weights? How do you run the race set before you with patience? How do you keep going & believing through this? LOOKING UNTO JESUS, the one who births & completes our faith, the one who endured & died for joy and love, the one who securely sits on the throne! You can make it & here's how I know: #JESUS

"24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, 25 To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever.

Devotional

“And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them,

Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.” Mark 8:34-38 KJV

Good Shepherd

"10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep. 12 But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep. 13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep. 14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine." John 10:10-14 There is nobody like Jesus! Oh what commitment! What love! What sacrifice! What leadership! What relationship! I don't know who or what you are depending on or looking to but I encourage you: LOOK TO JESUS! #goodshepherd #Jesus

"1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers." John 10:1-5 He goes first & we go after! We don't have to make or figure out the way! Don't know what, how, where, when? You have a shepherd! Hear Him! Follow Him! #JESUS

"20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, 21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen." Hebrews 13:20-21 Jesus is the shepherd you need! He leads, guides, protects, fights, feeds, watches, seeks, finds, gathers, carries, works, makes, and keeps! #JESUS

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Wisdom & Power

"But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God." 1 Corinthians 1:24 Jesus Christ is the wisdom of God & the power of God! Don't know how? Confused, unsure, lost? He's wisdom! Unable to do it on your own? Weak, tired, scared? He's power! We have looked to everything and everyone else but this year, go after Jesus! He has what you need! He IS what you need! #Jesus

[nothingliketheword]

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6 If you have JESUS this year, you have everything you need! He is the counselor! He is God! He is the Father! He is the peace you need! I don't know your resolutions, situations, or questions but I surely know the answer: J-E-S-U-S! Go after Jesus! Get more of Jesus! #Jesus

"22 It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23 They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness." Lamentation 3:22-23 So much mercy, such great faithfulness. Unfailing compassion, new every morning. What could have taken us out didn't. Even with its challenges, God has been so good, so faithful this year. He is worthy of praise. #putitinperspective

"19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Matthew 6:19-21 We can get so caught up in, worked up about, and focused on stuff down here, but make sure you have treasures in heaven. What really matters? What lasts? #putitinperspective

"1 [A Psalm and Song at the dedication of the house of David.] I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. 2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. 3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit. 4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. 5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning." Psalm 30:1-5 #putitinperspective

{Perspective} This is EASY for God!

"11 And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee. 12 So the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled." 2 Chronicles 14:11-12 The odds may be stacked against you, the facts may not seem to be in your favor, and you may be scared, overwhelmed, hurt, confused, or unsure about this but you have to remember, it is STILL *nothing* for God to help you! Calm down! Cry out to Him! There is nothing impossible or even hard for Him! God can! It may look big but it's only big to you! It's a light thing for God! He's able! Encourage yourself! Fight for your faith! #putitinperspective

"16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 #putitinperspective
