There is a Cause

There is a cause for the faithful to continue walking by faith, not by sight, sharing the good news that Jesus Christ is the answer to every problem or situation. It's an old story, yet still relevant in these modern times. Halleujah Christ Lives! Because He lives we have the power to keep moving forward in victory over every oppositional force. However in order to maintain a victorious position, it is necessary to "Fight the good fight of faith, take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession..." 1Tim.6:12. Although we are abundantly blessed, the evil one comes to steal, kill and destroy by any means necessary. It is critical for a successful journey to: love one another; pray continually; be thankful; earnestly contend for the faith entrusted to us and ride out every stormy season. Keep trusting by faith to persevere through every trial or circumstance. Having done all to stand, keep on standing with confidence that God is able to help you overcome every obstacle. The kingdom is suffering violence, the violent take it by force. Stand your ground; Never give up! Never give in! Thanks be to God who gives us the victory in Christ. Lord have mercy. Christ have mercy! (+ MEA)

Good News: God Loves You!

The gospel is still good news for all who will hear and respond by faith in Christ Jesus. It is good news to those who were once sinking deep in sin, surrounded by darkness, feeling hopeless and alone. God's love is greater, higher than anything; it reaches from the highest mountain to the lowest valley. To the utmost, Jesus saves; He uses extreme measures to demonstrate His love for humanity. In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence. (Ephesians 3:12) This is how God showed His love for us: He sent His only Son into the world that we might live through Him. This is love; not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. (1 John 4:9,10) God's love for us is so amazing!  #Love #Lifts

Praise the Lord

In these times of facing so many challenging situations, let songs of praise to God keep you in step with His intervention in the midst of it all. For our God reigns above every situation or circumstance; He is our strength and provides everything needed as overcomers who stand boldly amid life's difficulties.  (Psalm 150:6) Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. (Psalm 117) Praise God, everybody! Applaud God, all people! His love has taken over our lives; God's faithful ways are eternal. Hallelujah! #PraiseTheLord
