Knowing the word of God

Welcome 2019! Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays! I, for one, am exhausted! LOL On top of the holidays, the end of December also comes with birthdays for two of my teenage daughters!! While I enjoyed the holidays immensely, I am really happy to be getting back to life as normal! There are some exciting things happening for our family this year and I cannot wait to share each of them with you when the time is right!! My Word for 2019 One of the things I see a lot of people doing is choosing a word for the new year! I chose the word "rest". I have anxiety and I have a tendency to not only worry but to try to handle things and fix them! I need to learn to just rest in the knowledge that God has it all under control and I can just breathe and not feel I have to deal with everything and strive to fix everything and I don't need to worry about things that haven't even happened yet (imaginings!!) As I mentioned in December's Newsletter I am also excited because I have decided to focus on goals in 2019! As a blogger, it can be all too easy to focus on your ministry and lose focus of what you need to be doing for yourself! It is the same if you are a parent, a business owner...we can let our own needs slide. We need to look out for our own faith health as well and so I am setting goals to help me to focus on that so that I don't neglect my own growth. It is like the airplane speech...put the mask on yourself before assisting others. Arabah Joy's Grace Goals is one of the ways I am doing that! And it is never too late to jump in! Grace Goals I made the (very) small investment into Arabah Joy's Grace Goals program! It doesn't just help you focus on your spiritual goals, but life goals as well! Whether that be getting healthy, spending more time with family, anything! Through a series of step-by-step workshops and exercises, Grace Goals will show you how to work in conjunction with the Spirit of God to fulfill the desires He’s placed in your heart. It's a biblical process for total life transformation. I cannot recommend it enough and I am so excited to get to work on it!!

The Lord is worthy and greatly to be praised. In Him, we can put our trust. He is the God of provisions and our help in times of trouble. Let us stand in the faith as Abraham hath done knowing that God is faithful and has the ability to perform it all. Circumstances change but our God never changes. God already knows everything which we will face in this life, we must trust in him and know that all is well. He never took our place on the cross through Christ to leave us in times of difficulties, he took it and redeemed us from everything that was against us. God never fails, He can’t, He is God. “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and learn not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct they paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV). Pray this prayer of faith: Jesus, thank you for taking my place on the cross. I thank you for loving and forgiving me. I accept you as my Lord and Savior in my heart today. Amen.

We are a chosen vessel of God and it was nothing of our doing, he called us before the foundation of the world. “According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:” (King James Bible, 1769/2017, Ephesians 1:4). God chose to bless us in Christ Jesus and gave us a heart to believe. “Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me” (Isaiah 43:10). We can’t take no credit for God’s work; it is his grace that made us who we are. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast” (Ephesians 2:8-9). In all that we do, we must remember that God loved us before we were saints. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Roma...

Walking with Jesus I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Saviour in August 2016. When this journey just began, I was not where I needed to be, I was still doing a lot of things that had me being disobedient to God. I didn’t understood much of the bible, I was in a place where I know I needed help, and I felt that going to church would make everything okay right away, I never knew it would have a been a learning process. I was in and out of jobs, I was lonely, unhappy, bitter, confused, a culprit and basically lawless. I was really broken, I needed a strong foundation, a needed love, I needed peace, and I needed to know who I was. At this point of my life, I really wanted to come home. I had no money saved, was living in a house where a shared utilities and bathroom. My Bill’s where paid by the help of family and whatever assignments I would get to do. I was a Certified Nursing Assistant at the time. God knew my heart, he knew I wanted to go home, because it was a desire of...
