May 19. Rev E. Wade. Eph 6:10-17. We have to be obedient to God to succeed. God gives us His best; give God your best. Let those on the outside see Jesus in us. Build one another up. Faith and God protect us when we are tempted to doubt.  But on the armor of God. God gives us the gospel of peace. We have the helmet of God by believing in God. The breastplate of righteousness- good, honest, standing up for the weaker ones. Gently help people to grow with us. The belt of truth keeps us from giving into the world. God’s word is our offensive weapon. The Holy Spirit helps us see our wrong; correct it and turn it around. Put God first in all things. Always strive for the best. Arm yourself with the Spirit of God.

May12.  Ps 103:22, 104:1. A Call to Gratitude. Be grateful for all God does: the dangers you overcame, the fears that never happened, the narrow escapes, the answered prayers. Children of all ages, be grateful for your mother. Be grateful for a praying mother, one that sets a good example, one that believes in you when no one else does, that disciplined you, that taught you to obey, that taught you about God. 1 Kings 4. Be grateful that God cares for us even better than a mother.

May 5. We Have Security in Jesus. Ps 91. No matter what happens, God is there and we have no reason to fear. Put your trust in God. The devil sets traps for you, but the Lord will deliver you. Praise God for being our refuse. Live in the truth-it is our shield. The shield of faith will block the fiery darts of the wicked. All around the wicked fall but you stand because you praise God. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, mine, and soul. We have security in Jesus.

Apr 28. He’s Coming Back. Acts 1:8-11. Jesus died, rose, and ascended. We must do more than believe. Faith without works is dead. Deny yourself. Get ready because Jesus is coming back. Do not do anything that will keep you away from Jesus. The devil never quits so keep holding onto Jesus. John 14. Where Jesus is, we will be. Jesus is the way to the Father. Do what He says to do. When Jesus comes back every eye will see Him, and every tongue will confess Him. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Jesus is a friend. Live so people see Jesus in you. Jesus left on a cloud and is coming back. God is unique in giving us what we need and what we ask for. God is able and He is coming back again.

Apr 21. The Miracle on Calvary. Luke 23:33-43. Jesus worked many miracles when He walked this earth. On Calvary He gave us all the opportunity for eternal life. God still loves. Ask Jesus to remember you. No matter what you have done you can call on Jesus. Jesus is ready to give you a place with Him. Thank God that He rose. To God be the Glory.

Apr 14. The Lord Needs You. Mark 11:1-4. God who created everything, that owns everything and everyone, wants to use us. The Lord wants us to love and forgive one another, to be holy, to compel men to come to Him. Do exactly what God tells you to do. The Lord can use whoever or whatever He pleases: a fish for taxes, a rooster to condemn Peter, a raven to feed Elijah, a spider to save David, a colt to ride triumphantly into Jerusalem. The Lord wants to use you but don’t think He can’t get along without you. Let Jesus ride in your life and He will take away the sinful habits. Let God use your hands, feet, mouth, everything; surrender all to the Lord.

Apr 7. When A Man Finds God. 1 Sam 1:4-18. God knows what is in your heart. Learn to pray for yourself. Give your children back to God. God protected Samuel. Samuel heard the call of God. Do what God wants you to do not what you want. The Holy Spirit will lead you. When you find God your whole attitude changes. You are a new creature. You can forgive. You can get along with anyone. You love. You don’t worry, because God will supply all you need.

Mar 31. Don’t Let Go. Min E. Frazier. Gen 32:22-32.

Mar 24. I've Got to Blow My Trumpet. Ezek 33:1-6. Everywhere you look in this world there is sin and sadness. We need to call sin, sin. The world is separated, God wants to bring us together. Through the Word, we can do what God wants us to do. The Bible is our plumb-line not the ways of the world. God has called us to warn Christians and non-Christians. Christians must obey the Word of God. Those who don’t know Christ must accept Jesus as Savior. Hear the Word of God. Ezekiel preached the Word to dry bones and they lived again. Jonah tried to run from blowing his trumpet and ended up in the belly of a fish. When Jonah went to Nineveh and warned the people, they repented. Train your children in the ways of God. When God tells you to blow your trumpet, do it.

Mar 17. Man's Role in Society and Family. Rev 13:9. Dea Wade. Men must become better and stronger to continue their role as protector. Men have more opportunity today to be connected to their family. Men should be leaders. Lead in the home, 2 Tim 3:5. Follow the scriptures to improve relationships with wife and family. Be wise, use the knowledge around you, Prov 21:20. Tithe, Mal 3:10. Trust God, Eph 6:10-18. Hear. God is in charge. Ps 34:8.

Mar 10. God Will Provide. Ex 14:14. We can see how God provided in the life of Moses and the children of Israel. God protected Moses from death at his birth. God provided Aaron to assist when Moses said he was unable to speak well. God provided a dry path through the Red Sea when there was no way of escape. God changed bitter water to sweet. God provided meat and bread for them to eat. God provided the law to direct them. God provided protection from poisonous snakes. Those that looked up were healed. We must look up to Jesus and be healed; and God will provide.

Mar 3. Even Now. John 11:21-22. No matter what you are going through God can bring you out. Despite what seems like impossible odds, even now God is able. Trust God to deliver you even now.

Feb 24. Making A Difference. 1 John 1:5-7. Many people have made a difference throughout history. Harriet Tubman, Fredrick Douglas, George Washington Carver and Booker T. Washington were all born slaves and made a difference in the lives of many. Martin Luther King, Jr, helped end segregation and won the Nobel Peace Prize; he made a difference in the lives of many. We can make a difference no matter where we were born or who our parents are. You can bring light into a dark world. Walk in the light and make a difference. Pray for others, love, let your light shine.  But the greatest difference maker was Jesus Christ. He was born in a stable and laid in a manger. He temporarily gave up heaven to bring light into this world. He died so we could live. Jesus continues to make a difference. Are you making a difference?

Feb 17. We Are All one. Gen 1:26. Rev J. Blake

Feb 10. Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone. Acts 9:10-19. Min J Frazier. God calls us out of our comfort zone because He want to stretch our boundaries, He wants us to witness Him using us in amazing ways, and He wants us to depend on Him.

Feb 3. The Beatitudes. Matthew 5:1-16. We are blessed if we have a humble opinion of ourselves; mourn over our sinfulness; pull together; strive for righteousness; are forgiving and compassionate; are honest, true and sincere in all things; devote ourselves to making peace; do not flee but stand for God; people speak evil of us falsely for the sake Jesus. Christians bring out the best in this world. We are the light of the world. Let your light shine so men everywhere can see your light. Glorify the Father in heaven. Live by the beatitudes.

Jan 27. Sowing and Reaping; It’s Coming Up Again. Gal 6:7. The principle of sowing and reaping cannot be denied. This text applies to everyone: individual, saint, sinner, families, churches, nations. This life is like a field and we must be careful what we plant. Weeds grow without planting; be sure to pull the weeds out of your life. When you sow, expect to reap. Expect to reap the same kind of seeds you plant. You cannot avoid the harvest. Whatever you sow, it is coming up again. Be careful what you do, what you say, what you think. Jezebel, Ahab and Elijah in 1 Kings 21 and 22 give a dramatic example of sowing and reaping. Sow to the Spirit and not the flesh to reap eternal life.

Jan 20. God So Loved the World. John 3:16-18. Take time to think about how God loved us. He gave His only Son to die on the cross so we could be saved. How great is that love. God sacrificed his only Son and forgives us because of His great love. God’s love is seen in the woman caught in adultery. It is seen in prayer-we can come boldly and find mercy and grace to help in trouble. Nothing can separate us from God’s great love. Love one another with God’s love. God’s love is so great that He loved us while we were still sinners. Jesus died a painful death on the cross because of His love for us. Love the Lord and you will have eternal life. Spread the love.

Jan 13. Prayer. James 5:16-18. Prayer should be a two-way communication. Faith is the foundation of prayer. By faith we believe Jesus as Savior, that God hears prayer, and that God is able and willing to answer prayer. Worship reminds us that God is what matters; worship put the focus on God and not ourselves. Confession prepares us.  The holiness of God calls for repentance of sin. Isaiah 6:5; 1 John 1:9. Praise expresses our admiration for the one we cherish and respect, Ps 150:2, 119:164. Thanksgiving expresses appreciation for what God has already done. Thank God for His forgiveness, for hearing our prayers, for Jesus Christ, for Salvation, for the Holy Ghost. No matter what comes your way, start with prayer. Prov 16:3, Psalm 127:1.

Jan 6, 2019. Get Rid of The Trash. Gal 5:14-18. Christians are not allowed to be selective about what trash he should throw away. Just a small amount of trash can be harmful or deadly. We sometimes put ourselves before God; that is trash. We can have no god before God. Paul gives a partial list of trash in Galatians: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, indecency, idolatry, witchcraft, disharmony, jealously, wrath, strife, rebellions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelings and similar acts. Evaluate your life for the trash you need to get rid of. Fill up with the fruit of the Spirit: love (fulfills all the law), joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faith, meekness, self-control. These will keep out the trash. Walk in the Spirit and get rid of the trash for 2019.

Dec 30, 2018. Minister G. Jones. Deu 4:20-31. Don’t Play With God. Time will not solve your problems if you are on the wrong side of God. We are called to be different. We can’t act like the world and get to the Promised Land. A 71 day journey took 40 years because of disobedience, disbelief and dishonoring God. Choose to walk worthy so that you can receive your inheritance. Act like you serve the God of heaven. Choose to think like God. God must be number 1 or nothing at all. Trust – you must do it God’s way. 1 Cor 6:19, your life is not your own. Love God. Your priorities let you know if you are playing with God. Go into 2019 not playing with God. Seek God first and all these things will be added to you, Rom 3:31. Life is more than what you want for you.

Dec 16. God is Self-Sufficient. Isaiah 6:1-3. God is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient. Isaiah was confronted by God. God is God all by Himself. God will use man, but He can get along without him. We are convicted by our own sinfulness when we see the majesty and self-sufficiency of God. God is trying to get our attention; He wants us to examine ourselves. We are converted when God purges us from our sins; we are changed from evil to righteousness. Determine to follow the self-sufficient God. God is asking who will go for Him. We are commissioned. Jesus told us to go and make disciples of men. The self-sufficient God has work for us to do. God never wonders why, never asks questions, never worries, and never needs help. He is self-sufficient. Praise God that He wants to use us. Praise God for all He is and go and tell others.

Dec 9. John 17:1-17. Rev E. Wade. The Intercessory Prayer. Jesus prayed for His disciples and us, the believers. Jesus knew all scripture had to be fulfilled. Phil 2:5,9,11. Jesus was before the world was. The gospel has to be preached and taught. You can live differently by listening to the Word. Be dedicated to the cause of Christ. Jesus gave His life for us. Glorify God. V5. Jesus prayed for us because we are in this world. V17, Jesus prayed for the sanctification of the believers. The world is on the attack. Know that His Word is true. We can overcome all through the sacrifice of Christ. God will not forsake you. Trust God; give Him your heart. Don’t settle for less. Jesus prayed for spiritual unity among His people that the world may believe, V21. V24, we can share in the promised eternal life if we have the faith to trust Him.  

Dec 2. Jesus is Coming Back. John 14:1-3. All the Words of Jesus came true. All the prophecies of Jesus’ first coming have been fulfilled: Gen 3:15, Micah 5:1-2, Isa 9:1-2, Zech 9:9, Ps 34:20, Isa 53, Ps 22:16. Many of the prophecies that must precede His second coming have also been fulfilled. Matt 24:26, Joel 2:28, Matt 24:12, 2 Tim 3:1, Ezek 38:15-16, 36:33-35. The gospel must be preached to all the world, and then shall the end come, Matt 24:14. Rev 20, Satan will be bound for 1000 years. Do not worry about the things of this world, Jesus has gone to prepare a place for us.

Nov 25. Give Thanks to God. 2 Kings 6:25-33; 7:3,4. Leprosy was a dreaded disease and those with it were isolated. These lepers went to the camp of the enemy thinking they might be able to get food before they died. When they got to the camp, the enemy was gone, and they had more than enough food. They thanked and praised God and shared the good news with those that had isolated them. Praise God for a lot or a little. Luke 17:12. Jesus healed 10 lepers and only one came back to give thanks. Give God thanks, He has done so much for us. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path. Don’t be bitter, be thankful. God wants us to give thanks in all things,1 Thes 5:18. No matter what trials you go through, they will make you better and stronger. We like Paul should learn to be content in whatever state we are in. Trust, obey, worship and give God thanks. Thank God for Jesus, the one that died for us. Thank God every day.

Nov 18. Don’t Be Caught Again in Satan’s Web. Gal 5:1. Satan seeks to weave a web to catch anyone he can, 1 Peter 5:8. We all were caught in Satan’s web at one time; Jesus died to free us. Don’t be entangled again. To protect yourself against the web of Satan: Be sealed with the Holy Spirit, following His leading; Stay away from places that attract Satan (night clubs, casinos, gossip, ungodly entertainment, ungodly relationships); Remove emotions that are good hiding places for Satan (selfishness, fear, jealously, pride).  Jesus encountered Satan’s web after fasting 40 days and nights. Satan tried to trap Jesus with food, power and pride. Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, avoided Satan’s trap by using prayer and the Word of God. Satan used men to have Jesus convicted and crucified. Jesus died that we could be free and never be entangled again. Stand fast and do not be caught again in Satan’s web.

Nov 11. Please Don’t Miss The Meeting. John 20:24-25. At this time Jesus had been honored on entering Jerusalem, but then He was crucified, and now He has already risen from the dead. Jesus rose and told His disciples to meet Him in Galilee. Thomas was not at the meeting. Judas betrayed Jesus, Peter denied Him, and Thomas doubted. Please don’t miss the meeting. When Jesus called each of the disciples, they left what they were doing. Some don’t believe Jesus is coming back, but everything Jesus said has come true. “Come unto me all that labor and are heaven laden and I will give you rest.” At the next meeting all 11 disciples were there when Jesus appeared. Thomas believed because he had seen. Jesus said blessed are those that have not seen and yet believed; that’s us. Another meeting will take place in a city not made with hands. You must be pure and cleansed from your sins to get to that city for the meeting. Please don’t miss the meeting in heaven with Jesus.

Nov 4. A Glimpse of Heaven. Rev 21:1-8. It is beyond our imagination what God has prepared for those that love Him, 1 Cor 2:9. We started in the Garden of Eden where there was peace. God made a new heaven and earth that reminds us of the first garden: even the animals will be at peace. God gave His Son that we would have eternal life. The love of God gives us a common bond. Heaven is a beautiful place; no tears, no pain, no sorrow. We are the bride of Christ and we need to keep ourselves unspotted from the world. Do not love the world. Work while it is day, the night is coming. Psalm 139:1, God knows all about you. But there is another option. Hell has enlarged herself for the great number of people going there, Isaiah 5:11-16. Choose Jesus; we all have to die. We all must face the judgement.

Oct 28. Minister J. Frazier. Controlling Your Anger. James 1:19-20. As Christ followers there is a way to control your anger.1. Be quick to listen to God. Pause and hear what God has to tell you. 2. Be slow to speak. Use the time it takes to open your mouth and start your tongue to think before you speak. Eccl 5:2. Be careful of the words you say. 3. Be slow to become angry. Eph 4:26, be angry but do not sin. The difference in our anger and Jesus’ anger: Jesus was angry because of God’s will, Matt 21:13, Mark 3:5. Our anger is about us. Let go of anger: it hurts us physically, does not promote righteousness, can lead to immorality, and keeps us from being used by God. Let the Holy Spirit take control of your anger. Respond in a gentle way, Gal 5:22. The fruit of the Spirit pushes out anger.

Oct 21. We Did Not Choose Jesus, He Chose Us. 1 Peter 2:9-11. God chose us. He loved us so much that He gave his Son to die for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. God chose us to be a treasure to Him. Ex 19:5. We are valuable to God. God Chose Us to be a royal priesthood. Tell someone about Jesus everywhere you go. God Chose Us to be a holy nation. We are chosen to be morally and spiritually excellent, dedicated to God. God Chose Us to be a peculiar people. We belong to God. We were purchased by Jesus with His own blood. God chose us to praise Him. God enjoys the praise of His people. Ps 22:3. Praise God Because He called us out of darkness into His marvelous light.

Oct 14. The Value of A/My Soul. Matthew 16:24 -26.  The soul can be loss. Do not fear man, fear Him that can destroy both soul and body in hell; Matthew 10:28.  From the parable of the rich man and Lazarus, we see the soul of the rich man in hell while his body was in an earthly grave. If we accept Jesus, we will never die; John 11:25,26. God has a new eternal home for the soul when this earthy body dies; 2 Cor 5:1. God created the soul. Man is made of spirit, body and soul. The soul is the part of man that will be judged. The soul is of great value because it came from God. The soul is of great value because Jesus paid a great price for it; He paid His life. Nothing in this world is worth losing your soul; Matthew 16:26. The rich man in Luke 12:16-21 had so much he was planning to build bigger barns. But God told him, this night your soul will be required. Come to Jesus and save your soul. Tell others about the value of their soul and point them to Jesus.

Oct 7. The Church, The Bride of Christ. Matthew 16:18. Animals were sacrificed on the altar to pay for the sins of man. The tabernacle was the first worship center. God told Moses the details of how to build it. The second worship center was the temple. The synagogues preceded the church. God loves people to worship Him in spirit and truth. Jesus said that on this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell would not prevail against it. Jesus is coming back for His bride. He is looking for a bride without spot or wrinkle. The church, the bride should be unified. The church, the bride should love one another. Be like the 5 wise not the 5 foolish virgins. Be ready at all times because Jesus is coming back.

Sep 23. What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do? 2 Tim 3:1-5. We are living in perilous times. Job said, man born of a woman is of a few days and full of trouble. Failing health, troubled children, financial trouble, indecision. In our schools, in the white house, on our jobs, all around us we are faced with a dilemma. We see our text all around us. In John 14:1Jesus told them, Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. When people wondered what to do in the New Testament, they turned to Jesus. When the wine ran out Mary said do whatever Jesus tells you. Blind Bartimaeus cried out for Jesus to have mercy. Mary and Martha sent for Jesus when  Lazarus was sick. Paul and Silas were in a dilemma, chained and placed in the inner prison. One sang and one prayed. Things looked bad for Jesus when He said it is finished. But early Sunday morning He rose from the dead. When you don’t know what to do look to Jesus.

Sep 2. Don’t Be Left Out. John 6:54-58, 66-69. Don’t start walking with Him if you are not planning to go all the way. The devil wants you to be left out. He wants you to be left out of the peace, the victory, and the relationship that comes from obeying, trusting and faith in God. You are left out when you turn back. Those that turned back missed out on the healings and teaching of Jesus. They missed out on seeing the crucifixion, resurrection and ascension of Jesus. You are left out when you lack faith as did the disciples when Peter walked on water.  Peter began to sink when he took His eyes off Jesus. Jesus was preparing his disciples for His death. Jesus shed his blood and his body was broken so that we could have eternal life. Believe in Jesus as Savior and don’t be left out.

Aug 26: Protection from Judgement. Exodus 12:1-14. It is appointed unto man once to die and after that judgement. Heaven was prepared for those that follow Him, hell was prepared for Satan and his followers. God always warns his people about impending judgement. God warned Noah that destruction was coming so he could build an ark and save his family and the world. God warned Abraham of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah where not even 10 righteous could be found. When God gives you a direction, do not look back. God used Moses to warn Pharaoh of 10 plagues meant to cause Pharaoh to let God’s people go. To prevent the death of the firstborn in a house they had to apply the blood of a lamb to the doorposts. When we apply the blood of Jesus to our lives we are protected from judgement.

Aug 12: Walking With God. Gen 5:21-24. God created us with purpose and we need to fulfill our purpose. Let God set the pace, do not go ahead or get behind God. God will hold our hand to protect us as we walk with Him. Trust where God leads you. Talk to Him continually as you walk. Start walking with Him early and keep walking do matter what comes your way.

July 29: Rev. E. Wade. Gen 37:1-11. Joseph was the favorite of his father and hated by his brothers. His brothers sold him into slavery. We should be careful what we do to each other because it will come back on us. Joseph survived because: God had plans for him to prosper and God sees everything. Don’t leave your children to Satan. Don’t allow them to miss out on Sunday School, bible study and church. Do not forget God even when surrounded by those that do not believe. God favors you. Look to God. Be obedient to Him. Listen for the voice of God. No matter what comes your way – God is the answer.

July 22: Staying Planted. Mark 4:3-8, 14-20. Rev. Lisa Owens. Bloom where you are planted. We as God’s people have been planted though we may not like where we are planted. When God plants you, it won’t be easy to uproot you. When planted by God you will get an increase. Do not move before you get the increase. Hear God’s Word, live God’s Word, and you will reap a harvest that continues to grow. Blooming requires a process. You may have to go through some trials. Bloom; let people see the true and living God in you. Let your light shine.  Daniel and the three Hebrew boys stayed planted. Through all that they did to Jesus, He stayed planted. Stay planted.

July 15. Victorious Faith. Heb 11:1-5. Nothing is too hard for God; but we must have faith. Lord help my unbelief. Faith as a grain of mustard seed. Faith without works is dead. Faith comes by hearing. Pray in faith. Hide God’s Word in your heart. To develop victorious faith we must realize (1)The goodness of God (2) The Benefits of Challenges (3) The gifts God has and will give us.  We receive faith by hearing the Word of God; we walk by faith and not sight; without faith it is impossible to please God; by faith Noah prepared an ark and thus saved the world. Keep the faith. Stay with Jesus. I have faith that I will one day have heaven as my home.

July 8. Stir Up The Gift. Ephesians 4:11-13. The source of our gifts comes from God through the Holy Spirit. We as Christians should not let our gifts become stagnant but we must stir up the gift to both edify God and to build up the church.

July 1. The Un-pardonable Sin. Matt 12:32-33. The Holy Ghost is part of the trinity. In this passage Jesus had headed a man. The Pharisees said Jesus healed by the power of Satan. Jesus let them know that could not be true because a house divided against itself could not stand. People that rejected God could be forgiven because Jesus was coming to give them a chance. People who rejected Jesus could be forgiven because the Holy Spirit was coming to lead them into the truth of Jesus Christ. Christians can sin and be forgiven; do not quench the Holy Spirit. Some people think they have done too much wrong to come to church, too much to be forgiven. But there is only one sin that will not be forgiven. Totally rejecting the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven in this world or the world to come because He is the last one to come to draw us to God. The Holy Spirit will not dwell in an unclean place: forgive, love, get on one accord. Let nothing separate you from the love of God.

June 24: You Don’t Have The Right To Remain Silent. Ps 107:1, 2. Miranda Rights say you have a right to remain silent. But God has been too good for us to remain silent. Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Thank God for what He has done for you and is doing for you. The idol worshippers praise their god; you don’t have the right to remain silent. David said let everything that has breath praise the Lord.  David experienced God’s protection. In heaven praise is continuous; we need to get comfortable praising Him here. Who should praise God? The redeemed should say so. God set us free from the bonds of Satan. God continues to bless us. Tell others about the goodness of Jesus, Ps 117. Thank God for giving us a praise. Don’t remain silent; show Jesus some gratitude by praising His name.  

June 17: Doing Right When Everybody Else Is Doing Wrong. Gen 6:5-8. Noah and Job did right when others were doing wrong. Mary found favor with God, Luke 1:30. She did right while others were doing wrong. Can God find favor with you? Living in a perverse world, be in the world but not a part of the world. Follow God because following man will lead to destruction. God hates sin. Love God not the world. God sent His Son through His mercy. Songs and music of God bring us closer to God. God enjoys our praise and thanks. Everywhere you turn sin is rampant; tell them that Jesus is coming back. When you live it, God will speak to and through you. He will take care of you. Do not be afraid to be a witness. Walk by faith. Lean on the Lord. Even when trouble comes, trust God. The devil will never win. By doing right, Noah became the savior of a whole race. No matter what the devil does, keep walking with God. Job lost everything, but He held onto God. Your change is on the way. You have favor with God.

June 10. Knowledge Is Power. To Know the Lord is Power. Minister J. Frazier. Knowledge - facts, information, or skills acquired. We all have knowledge of something. What do we know? John 10:27 – God knows us. 1 Cor 4:19 - Use your knowledge to uplift/bill up the church and the name of God. Heb 3:5 – God will never leave us so why worry. Isa 41:10 No need to be fearful or dismayed, God is with us. All these promises come from God. Jer 29:11 – God has a plan for us. Rom 8:28 – If you love the Lord you can lean on Him. Prepare to be soldiers of God. 2 Tim 2:1-4; 2 Tim 2:15. Study God’s Word. Get God’s word in your spirit. Get the knowledge of the Word so you can use it.
