He is my Rock!

39 But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD;
He is their strength in the time of trouble.
40 And the LORD shall help them and deliver them;
He shall deliver them from the wicked,
And save them,
Because they trust in Him. Psalm 37:39-40

It doesn't say that we won't have times of trouble but it does say that He is our strength when those times come. He wil help us and deliver from the wicked and save them....and here are the key words for me...because they trust Him.

In order to trust someone you have to have relationship with them. It is easier to trust Him when you have that relationship with Him!

We need to trust Him when those tough and scary times come. We have to trust in Jesus to take care of us and not to run ahead of Him to take care of ourselves. When we keep our focus on Him the other things aren't as scary or as big! He is sooooo big!

Who else do we have to trust? There is a scripture that says, some may trust in horses and some may trust in chariots but we will trust in the Name of our Lord!

I am glad that when things get tough I can run to Him. He has my back and my front...He loves me!

He Came To Save!

51 When the time was coming near for Jesus to depart, he was determined to go to Jerusalem. 52 He sent some messengers ahead of him, who went into a town in Samaria to make everything ready for him. 53 But the people there would not welcome him, because he was set on going to Jerusalem. 54 When James and John, followers of Jesus, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven and destroy those people?” 55 But Jesus turned and scolded them. [And Jesus said, “You don’t know what kind of spirit you belong to. 56 The Son of Man did not come to destroy the souls of people but to save them.”] Then they went to another town. Luke 9:51-56 NCV James and John were known as the “Sons of Thunder.” They were brothers and let’s just say that they weren’t always politically correct. If you were going into a fight, you would want James and John on your side. James and John were the rowdy boys! James and John loved Jesus, so naturally they took great offense when th...

Betrayal

Matthew 27:1-8 NIV   Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people made their plans how to have Jesus executed. 2  So they bound him, led him away and handed him over to Pilate the governor. 3  When Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus was condemned, he was seized with remorse and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders. 4  “I have sinned,” he said, “for I have betrayed innocent blood.” “What is that to us?” they replied. “That’s your responsibility.” 5  So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. Then he went away and hanged himself. 6  The chief priests picked up the coins and said, “It is against the law to put this into the treasury, since it is blood money.” 7  So they decided to use the money to buy the potter’s field as a burial place for foreigners. 8  That is why it has been called the Field of Blood to this day. Judas, betrayer of Jesus. How sad. J...

Be Careful! Consult the Lord in Everything

3  But when the people of Gibeon heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai, 4  they resorted to deception to save themselves. They sent ambassadors to Joshua, loading their donkeys with weathered saddlebags and old, patched wineskins. 5  They put on worn-out, patched sandals and ragged clothes. And the bread they took with them was dry and moldy. 6  When they arrived at the camp of Israel at Gilgal, they told Joshua and the men of Israel, “We have come from a distant land to ask you to make a peace treaty with us.” 7  The Israelites replied to these Hivites, “How do we know you don’t live nearby? For if you do, we cannot make a treaty with you.” 8  They replied, “We are your servants.” “But who are you?” Joshua demanded. “Where do you come from?” 9  They answered, “Your servants have come from a very distant country. We have heard of the might of the Lord your God and of all he did in Egypt. 10  We have also heard what he did to the tw...
