Stay inspired in the word.

Greetings,

Child of God, never forget that God is not against you, He is FOR you! Based on the following scripture, I can assure you that He is on your side:

Psalm 56:9 (NKJV) – “When I cry out to You, Then my enemies will turn back; This I know, because GOD IS FOR ME.”

Because we were born into this world as sinners who desperately needed a Savior, we must make a conscious decision to surrender our hearts and lives to Christ. But even after receiving salvation, many continue to think of themselves as a guilty criminal standing before a righteous Judge who just hasn’t been judged yet. Nothing could be further from the truth once He has cleansed and washed you with His blood. Such erroneous beliefs will certainly hinder your prayers and your worship!  

Because of His grace, God sought you out and then saved you. Jesus cared so much for you, that He willingly suffered the terrible penalty of crucifixion for you so that you could be saved and paid the price in full. Let’s rejoice in the fact that God is on our side! Each one of us is highly favored and loved by God!

Today, Lord Jesus, I declare what You have said about me to be true. I am clean, I am forgiven and I am Yours. You have accepted me and I thank You for paying what it cost for You to save me. I affirm that You are for me and not against me.

Today. I’m worshiping with Upper Room and “One Thirst.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

People who don’t know better question the reliability of the Bible. They believe that our faith is founded upon fables and myths. However the things that we have been taught from God’s Word are certain and sure.

Luke 1:3-4 (NKJV) – “it seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write to you an orderly account, most excellent Theophilus, [4] that you may know the CERTAINTY of those things in which you were instructed.”

People say there have been errors in translation. How can we believe the Bible when it was translated incorrectly from one copy to another. They even say there are contradictions found in the scripture.

Here are the facts: each of the so-called contradictions is easily explained. There remain over 5,000 ancient copies of the Bible written in Greek—plus another 8,000 copies in Latin, and 1,000 in other languages. Complete books from the Bible have been found that were written hundreds of years before Christ was born. As further proof of its reliability, tens of thousands of citations are still available from early church fathers who wrote them in the early centuries.  

Where are all of the mistranslations? They aren’t there.

If we compare the Bible with other written documents from ages past, only 2,000 copies from Homer still exist, 7 from Plato, 49 from Aristotle, 10 from Caesar, and 20 from Tacitus. Yet no one ever questions whether they are accurate. With so many more manuscripts of the original texts remaining of the Bible, why doesn’t everyone accept it as accurate? I think you already know the answer!

Father, we thank You for the certainty of Your Word that is forever settled in the heavens! I’m glad that I can rely upon the truthfulness of Your promises. If You said it, I believe it, for You cannot lie.

Today, I’m worshiping with All Nations and “Yahweh.”  

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

Worship will open the heavens over your life! Through worship, you can change disappointments into God’s appointments and turn trouble into triumphs. When we worship God in the middle of our dilemma, He reverses the outcome from certain defeat and causes us to experience victory instead.

Psalm 67:5-7 (NKJV) – “Let the peoples praise You, O God; Let all the peoples praise You. [6] THEN the earth shall yield her increase; God, our own God, shall bless us. [7] God shall bless us, And all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.”

Blessings are the inevitable result of worship, so lift God up with loving words of praise and adoration—and then see what He will do! He is worthy of our worship.

Lord, You are so great and deserving of my praise, I will exalt Your Name and worship You with all of my heart! You have earned my adoration for there is no one else like You. You are perfect in all of Your ways and You love us.

Today. I’m worshiping with Leon Timbo and “If Heaven.”  

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!

Greetings,

We all have imperfections and weaknesses, don’t we? Religion addresses them by making us feel shame.

On the other hand, the world’s way of dealing with our struggles is to blame God and say that we are being oppressed by restrictions. We should just do whatever we want.

But how does God deal really deal with our flaws? He empowers us to overcome them and then frees us from the shame we experience because of them. That’s freedom!

Romans 8:1 (NKJV) – “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.”

What a different message than that of religion or of the world. Scripture assures us that if we walk according to the Spirit and live by the principles of God’s Word, we will not walk according to the flesh. Therefore we need not be concerned about condemnation.

It also teaches us that if our lives are in Christ, we can be free from shame. Yes, we may experience guilt when we’ve done wrong, but that can easily be removed if we’ll turn to the Father—not away from Him. Instead of condemning us, God loves and accepts us.  

God, I thank You today for setting me free from condemnation and removing the shame I once carried. I am free because of Your great love for me—and I thank You. You have lifted the burden of my failures and delivered me. I am grateful.

Today, I’m worshiping with Anaysha Cooper and “Let Praises Rise.”

We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
