The Trusting Heart To Jesus Clings

Jeremiah_17-7-2: Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. Jeremiah_17-7-2: Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.

The Trusting Heart To Jesus Clings
Nor Any Ill Forebodes,
But At The Cross Of Calvary Sings,
Praise God For Lifted Loads!

Singing I Go Along Life’s Road,
Praising The Lord, Praising The
Lord,
Singing I Go Along Life’s Road,
For Jesus Has Lifted My Load.

The Passing Days Bring Many Cares,
“Fear Not,” I Hear Him Say,
And When My Fears Are Turned To Prayers,
The Burdens Slip Away.

He Tells Me Of My Fathers Love,
And Never Slumbering Eye;
My Everlasting King Above
Will All M Needs Supply.

When To The Throne Of Grace I Flee,
I Find The Promise True,
The Mighty Arms Upholding Me
Will Bear My Burdens Too. Amen!

Thank You Jesus!

No Matter When Or Where

I’m Sure To Find Him There
In Times Of Joy Or Sorrow

Let The Waves Of Temptation Roll,
Jesus Keeps Me Whatever Betides.

Though The Tempter My Heart Assail
In My Weakness Yet I Am Strong,
For With Jesus I’ll Ever Prevail.

I Have Victory Over Sin,
I Have Victory Over The Grave;
Even Death Now Has Lost Its Sting,
Hallelujah! I Know I’m Saved. Amen!

Whose Grace Hath Made Thee Whole
Whose Loving-Kindness Crowns Thy Days

The Fruit Of My Mouth


Prayer's avatarPrayer Haven

The Fruit Of My Mouth

Romans_10-10: For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation Romans_10-10: For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation

“A man’s belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled” Proverbs 18:20(KJV)

Child of God, the world may be crying and dying, but your case can be different. The only person deciding your fate is you. What have you been saying? If you say all is well, then it will be so. If you confess starvation, then you will have it. If you speak of lack and hunger over your life, God will not overrule them, because you will have what you say. The power of the tongue can never be overemphasized. While the world is speaking its language, you should speak from heaven, because He that is from above is above all.

Husbands, Love Your Wives, Just As Christ Loved The Church And Gave Himself Up For Her


Prayer's avatarPrayer Haven

Husbands, Love Your Wives, Just As Christ Loved The Church And Gave Himself Up For Her

Ephesians_5-25: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it Ephesians_5-25: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it

A woman’s greatest need is for security. Her most secure environment is one in which she is married to a sacrificial, sensitive man.
The Bible describes that kind of husband in Ephesians 5:25. Paul writes, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.”
Men, Jesus gave His life for you, and you are to follow His example in your marriage. In other words, love her more than you love yourself. Sacrifice for her.
What does a sacrificial husband look like?
• He is dedicated to serving his wife.
• He puts her needs above his own.
• He makes sure she gets whatever she needs.
• He studies his…

I Mess Up Every Now And Again, But God Still Loves Me

Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

“Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?”

Romans 2:4 (KJV)

I believe that the time has come for God’s people to truly understand the heart of the Father. Unfortunately, a very misleading picture of God has been painted over the years, leaving the impression that our Father, God, is mad at His children and is watching us very closely to see if we make any mistakes so that He can pass judgment on us. This image has created are a very fearful, distant relationship between God and us. The truth is that we mess up every now and again, so we have…

God’s Grace. I Am Living In Fellowship With God Through Christ Jesus

God’s Grace. I Am Living In Fellowship With God Through Christ Jesus

Psalms_84-11: For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly Psalms_84-11: For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly

“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?”

Romans 6:1 (KJV)

Oftentimes when people hear the message about God’s grace to His children, it is so good and radical that they ask the questions in our text for today. As a matter of fact, if this line of thought has not crossed your mind, you have never heard the message of grace. Every time the message of grace is preached, people see it as a licence for sin. They are so consumed with the desire to do right that they ask, “Why are you licencing sin by preaching grace?” I have come to answer…

Christ Nailed The Law To The Cross. He Freed Me From The Bondage Of The Law, And Where There Is No Law, There Is No Sin


Prayer's avatarPrayer Haven

Christ Nailed The Law To The Cross. He Freed Me From The Bondage Of The Law, And Where There Is No Law, There Is No Sin

Romans_8-2: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans_8-2: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

“Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.”

Romans 3:20 (KJV)

Notice that our text today very clearly states that no flesh shall be justified in the sight of God by the deeds of the law (the Ten Commandments and all other ordinances). Now, let us look at this matter from this standpoint: going by this scripture, everyone is condemned because all have sinned. The sin is not a function of what you did or did not do; it is a function of the…

It Is More Blessed To Give Than To Receive. The Lifestyle Of Giving

Jeremiah_29-11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end Jeremiah_29-11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end

“I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

Acts 20:35 (KJV)

We live in a world where everyone is striving to get whatever they can; people will lie or even kill if need be in order to get more and fulfil their desires. Indeed, it is a world of greed, avarice, covetousness, and self-centeredness. The end result is nothing other than dissatisfaction and emptiness.

Our text today tells us that there is a blessed and superior platform that we are expected…

The Power Of The Love That Keeps Me From Sin

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

“But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.”

Psalm 130:4 (KJV)

Contrary to popular and erroneous religious views, fear does not produce a new creation but faith in the Lord does. Over the years, there’s been the mistaken idea that it is God’s wrath, anger, and judgment on anyone who falls short of His righteous requirements that produces the fear of Him.

To fully understand and apply the Bible, you must know the dispensation that God was dealing with in its different accounts. God dealt with each dispensation differently. You cannot apply His dealings with those under the law as though they were under grace. God deals with the new creation under…

God’s Blessing Is Never Earned, Deserved, Or Merited


Prayer's avatarPrayer Haven

God’s Blessing Is Never Earned, Deserved, Or Merited

Proverbs_10-22: The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it Proverbs_10-22: The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it

“So then they which be of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.”

Galatians 3:9 (KJV)

As long as you are struggling to earn, deserve, or merit the blessing of God, you will wait for the blessing for a very long time. God’s blessing is never earned, deserved, or merited. Blessings are received by grace. This is a fact I have been hammering home and I will not stop until every single believer gets it. You cannot earn God’s blessing; you simply receive it.

According to our text, if you accept that you are justified or made righteous by faith and not by your deeds you are blessed with faithful Abraham. In Romans 4:6, Abraham believed in God (and did not do right), and he was…

“And we have known and believed the love that God hath in us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.”

1 John 4:16 (KJV)

Irrespective of the challenges you may be facing, understand and believe that the love of God for you will always put you on top. Nothing can withstand or be greater than God’s love for you. Hear this: “Who, then, can separate us from the love of Christ? Can trouble do it, or hardship or persecution or hunger or poverty or danger or death?
