THE THOUGHTS OF MAN
THE LORD KNOWS THE THOUGHTS OF MAN; HE KNOWS
THAT THEY ARE FUTILE.
( PSALM 94:11 *NIV )
We are all Architects of our own future! The thoughts that
we have today dictate what our future holds for us tomorrow.
Therefore a person who has positive thoughts shall have
positive results, just as a person who has negative thoughts
shall attract negative results in their life.
Therefore if we start each day by counting all of our
blessings, and then try our best to have positive thoughts
during the day, our hearts will be merry! After all, FROM THE
FULLNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL RECEIVED ONE
BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER. ( JOHN 1:16 )
Now this is because: EVERY GOOD AND PERFECT GIFT
IS FROM ABOVE, COMING DOWN FROM THE FATHER OF
THE HEAVENLY LIGHTS, WHO DOES NOT CHANGE LIKE
SHIFTING SHADOWS. ( JAMES 1:17 )
So, why not: SING AND MAKE MUSIC IN YOUR
HEART TO THE LORD, ALWAYS GIVING THANKS TO GOD
THE FATHER FOR EVERYTHING, IN THE NAME OF OUR
LORD JESUS CHRIST. Amen.
( EPHESIANS 5:19-20 )

The Power of Prayer
IS ANY ONE OF YOU IN TROUBLE? HE SHOULD PRAY. IS
ANYONE HAPPY? LET HIM SING SONGS OF PRAISE. IS
ANY ONE OF YOU SICK? HE SHOULD CALL THE ELDERS
OF THE CHURCH TO PRAY OVER HIM AND ANOINT HIM
WITH OIL IN THE NAME OF THE LORD. FOR THE PRAYER
OF A RIGHTEOUS MAN IS POWERFUL AND EFFECTIVE.
( JAMES 5:13; 14 & 16 *NIV )
One of the most powerful things on this Earth is "The Power
Of Prayer!" For, THE EYES OF THE LORD ARE ON THE
RIGHTEOUS AND HIS EARS ARE ATTENTIVE TO THEIR CRY;
THE RIGHTEOUS CRY OUT, AND THE LORD HEARS THEM;
HE DELIVERS THEM FROM ALL THEIR TROUBLES.
( PSALM 34:15 & 17 )
So let us not forget to speak to God in prayer today, and
thank Him for all He has done for each of us! Let us also pray
for those who are suffering, or are going through trials and
tribulations in their lives! Let us pray for each other as well,
and ask God to fill us with His Love, Hope, and Faith!
Therefore, I KNEEL BEFORE THE FATHER, I PRAY
THAT OUT OF HIS GLORIOUS RICHES HE MAY
STRENGTHEN YOU WITH POWER THROUGH HIS SPIRIT
IN YOUR INNER BEING, SO THAT CHRIST MAY DWELL IN
YOUR HEARTS THROUGH FAITH AND I PRAY THAT YOU,
BEING ROOTED AND ESTABLISHED IN LOVE, MAY HAVE
POWER, WITH ALL THE SAINTS, TO GRASP HOW WIDE
AND LONG AND HIGH AND DEEP IS THE LOVE OF CHRIST,
AND TO KNOW THIS LOVE THAT SURPASSES KNOWLEDGE
--THAT YOU MAY BE FILLED TO THE MEASURE OF ALL THE
FULLNESS OF GOD. Amen.

The U in JesUs
Before U were thought of or time had begun,
God even stuck U in the name of His Son.
And each time U pray, you'll see it's true
You can't spell out JesUs and not include U.
You're a pretty big part of His wonderful name,
For U, He was born; that's why He came.
And His great love for U is the reason He died.
It even takes U to spell crUcified.
Isn't it thrilling and splendidly grand,
He rose from the dead, with U in His plan?
The stones split away, the gold trUmpet blew,
and this word resUrrection is spelled with a U.
When JesUs left earth at His Upward ascension,
He felt there was one thing He just had to mention.
"Go into the world and tell them it's true,
That I love them all - Just like I love U."
So many great people are spelled with a U,
Don't they have a right to know JesUs too?
It all depends now on what U will do,
He'd like them to know, But it all starts with U.
--- Author Unknown
Therefore, why not tell others about His Great
Love, and share with them all He has done for "U" as well.
For: I TELL YOU THERE WILL BE MORE REJOICING IN
HEAVEN OVER ONE SINNER WHO REPENTS THEN
OVER NINETY-NINE RIGHTEOUS PERSONS WHO DO
NOT NEED TO REPENT. Amen. ( LUKE 15:7 )

IF ANY OF YOU LACK WISDOM, HE SHOULD ASK GOD
IF ANY OF YOU LACKS WISDOM, HE SHOULD ASK GOD,
WHO GIVES GENEROUSLY TO ALL WITHOUT FINDING
FAULT, AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO HIM.
( JAMES 1:5 *NIV )
When you are in need of an answer to one of life's problems,
and cannot find the answer, always turn to God's Word. FOR
THE LORD GIVES WISDOM, AND FROM HIS MOUTH COMES
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING. THEN YOU WILL
UNDERSTAND WHAT IS RIGHT AND JUST AND FAIR--EVERY
GOOD PATH. FOR KNOWLEDGE WILL BE PLEASANT TO
YOUR SOUL. DISCRETION WILL PROTECT YOU, AND
UNDERSTANDING WILL GUARD YOU.
( PROVERBS 2:6; 9; 10; 11 )
Also when we turn to the Bible GOD has promised us that:
"I WILL INSTRUCT YOU AND TEACH YOU IN THE WAY THAT
YOU SHOULD GO; I WILL COUNSEL YOU AND WATCH OVER
YOU." ( PSALM 32:8)
He further promised that when we are faced with a decision, if
we ask Him what to do, He will tell us. For it is written:
WHETHER YOU TURN TO THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT, YOUR
EARS WILL HEAR A VOICE BEHIND YOU, SAYING, "THIS IS
THE WAY; WALK IN IT." ( ISAIAH 30:21 )
So why try to face life's problems alone, for that
can be a losing battle. After all you have the awesome power of
GOD waiting to lead you! So why not: COMMIT TO THE LORD
WHATEVER YOU DO, AND YOUR PLANS WILL SUCCEED.
( PROVERBS 16:3) Then the next time that you ask "What
Would Jesus Do," you may just pick up your Bible and read all
about it in the Gospel's. Amen.
