Find Strength

 

Have you lost hope?  Then it is time to find strength.
 
1 Samuel 23:16 — Jonathan went to David and helped him find strength in God.
 
2 Chronicles 15:7 – But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.

Joshua 1:9 — Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

Fasting: Do You Have Parasites?

Do You Have Parasites?
 

The following is an excerpt from chapter 1 of my book, A Walk in the Wilderness:Wilderness 
  
Parasites:
During the first prolonged 21-day fast that I did, I kept a journal of parasites that were eliminated from my body.  I was surprised (shocked actually) to see what was living off of my body!  Statistically, 85% of North Americans unknowingly have at least one form of digestive parasite.
 
In America, the number one cause of persons being infected with Ecoli bacteria is from drinking tap water.  It is also probable that most forms of parasites enter our bodies through tap water.  Fasting is a method to rid the body of parasites.

 
As you seek the Lord and desire to serve Him more, are you considering fasting?  Read on…
 
 
How Scriptural is Fasting?

 

Dr. GreenwoodThere are nearly 70 references to fasting in the Bible.  Each week, I’ll share a few verses with you.  Searching the bible will help you discover more about fasting for yourself. 

 

Last week we looked at Mark 8:3.   

 

Acts 27:9 — Paul making reference to the annual day of atonement
 

Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them.

All Things

All Things

 

In every situation, God is able to make all things work on behalf of those who love Him.  Not just a few things… not some things… ALL THINGS.  If you will look beyond the trials of this moment, you will see His hand at work.  He is carving out a path specifically for you, and He is aware of every detail.  He knows all things concerning you.
 
Psalm 57:2-3 — I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me. He shall send from heaven and save me.  
 
Romans 8:28 — And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose. 
             
2 Corinthians 9:8 — And God [is] able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work.
 
Matthew 6:33 — But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
 
Matthew 11:27 — All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
 
Matthew 19:26 — Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

It’s Enough…

Sufficient Grace

 

 
God’s grace is enough for every situation.  God alone is aware of the difficulties you’ve encountered.  He knows that you have felt as if the trials would swallow you completely. His grace is able to sustain you and to deliver you.
 
2 Corinthians 12:9 — And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.  
 
1 Timothy 1:14 — And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
 
James 4:6 — But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.

A Well of Wealth

  • July 4, 2009 5:39 pm

The Lord has brought you through many tribulations and “trials by fire,” and by it, He has built a wealth of knowledge and a well of wisdom within you. Your goal is to allow others to draw from this well in the days ahead.  Many need to know the principles gleaned from your victories (and even your failures). This knowledge and wisdom will inspire others to persevere and trust God through every situation.

 
John 7:38 –  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
 
Romans 8:35 & 37 – Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 

lori Wishing you a day of smooth sailing!
