What is the word of God creating in your life? Are you taking it with you everywhere you go? Have you made the Word your MasterCard? You won’t leave home without it. It has unlimited benefits. It is accepted everywhere you go. And there are no monthly fees, no interest, and all He is asking is that you come as you are.He will establish your credit. The rewards never expire, no annual fee, no transaction fees, no enrollment fee. The word never expires. You have direct access. You will never have to go through a receptionist. Your Mastercard is accepted all over the world. You just have to use it every day of your life.
There are so many scriptures that I enjoy, however, I have used my Bible Study devotionals, and favorite resources to help me encourage you in the word of God. My MasterCard is never declined.
“My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them and health to all their bodies.” Proverbs 4:20-22 NASB
The word of God is power, and when we listen to God’s word and receive it is like a credit card paid in full. And guess what you won’t have to pay. It was paid for at Calvary. God’s word is benefits that will last for eternity. It allows God to unleash his power in you through His word, healing you in every area of your life.
Casting all your care upon Him, for he cares for you. I Peter 5:7 NKJV
It is a horrible feeling to be bound, and you feel like there is no one to talk to. There was a time, when I thought, I had to have all the answers. remark: Incomplete sentence foolish I was. Thank God for His word, and that He allows you to bring all your secrets, casting;, the whole care, all anxieties, worries, concerns, unsure, not sure, just bring everything to Him. Who are you telling your secrets, and are they making a difference?
The meek will be at rest in the storms of life. Matthew 11:28-30;Psalm 37 : 7:Hebrews 4:1-11
storms will go, but they must not stay. And it depends on you, how long they stay. The enemies’ scheme will never be able to conquer God’s word. God is very faithful, and when we don’t make decisions based on emotions, other people’s opinion of pity, and if I was you, I would not take this and that….. You don’t need to be manipulated by people who are supposed to be your friends, the enemies is already trying to do that. That is why it is good to have godly counselors, because when the storm comes, you can be calm. There is security in the word rest. Look at the definition of rest below from Encarta World English Dictionary:
stopping of work or activity: a state or period of refreshing freedom from exertion
sleep: the repose of sleep that is refreshing to body and mind and is marked by a reduction in metabolic activity
absence of movement: the cessation of movement or action
In the presence of God, you can be refreshed, from exertion. You find peace that is refreshing to the body, mind and soul. When you are calm, you react to your circumstances with wisdom.
