Anxiety, Not Welcome

Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but an encouraging word makes it glad. 

Proverbs 12:25 AMPC

Anxiety—don’t carry it, walk with it, eat with it, live with it, or go to bed with it. Don’t entertain it, support it, encourage it—not in big things or little things, present things or future things, pressing things or perplexing things. It is a foe not a friend, a downer not an edifier, a binder not a freer. It will quickly introduce you to its close cousins, fret and fear. When anxiety knocks at the door of your heart or mind, be sure to renounce it, reject it, and refuse it any place.

He is the Protecting Shepherd -Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

LORD, don’t hold back Your tender mercies from me. Let Your unfailing love and faithfulness always protect me. Psalm 40:11 NLT

To the wandering sheep,
He is the guiding Shepherd.
To the fearful sheep,
He is the protecting Shepherd.
To the lame sheep,
He is the carrying Shepherd.
To the discontented sheep,
He is the fulfilling Shepherd.
To the parched sheep,
He is the anointing Shepherd.
To the insecure sheep,
He is the reassuring Shepherd.

Now Unto Him

Now unto Him-

Who is the love;
Who holds the hand;
Who knows the need;
Who helps us stand.

Who binds the wound;
Who mends the soul;
Who heals the heart;
Who makes us whole.

Who stills the storm;
Who rights the wrong;
Who stops the foe;
Who makes us strong.

Who brings the hope;
Who wipes the tear;
Who gives the grace;
Who holds us near.

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us. Ephesians 3:20 NKJV

He Remains

God remains the strength of my heart; He is mine forever. Psalm 73:26 NLT2

 

When our energy is depleted, His power remains strong.

When our prayers grow silent, His intercession remains constant.

When our understanding is unclear, His way remains certain.

When our legs grow weary, His grip remains firm.

When evil seems triumphant, His judgement remains sure.

When all doors are closed, His pathway remains opened.

When things are shaking, His Kingdom remains unshakable.

The Lord Almighty

"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End," says the Lord, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty." Revelation 1:8 (NKJV)

There is power in heaven. All power! All power is in the Father. All power is revealed in the Son. All power is manifested through the Holy Spirit.

Nothing can add to God’s power and nothing can diminish His power. His power is perfect and His power is eternal.

The power of His word created all. John 1, Hebrews 1, Colossians 1 The power of His breath gives life. Genesis 2:7 The power of His gospel saves to the uttermost. Romans 1:16, Hebrews 7:25 The power of His blood cleanses the stain of sin. Isaiah 1:18 The power of His voice raises the dead. John 5:28-29 The power of His command stills the strongest storm. Luke 8:24 The power of His name brings the crippled to their feet. Acts 3 The power of His finger casts out demons. Luke 11:20 The power of His touch brings healing. Matthew 8:3 The power of His hand imparts blessing. Mark 10:16 The power of His promise means nothing can separate you from His love. Romans 8:38-39

"May God Almighty bless you.” Genesis 28:3 (NKJV)
