verses for our time with God

 


Let’s just spend a few minutes today taking in some verses that have some incredible meaning.  In fact these things help us hear from God, get to know God and learn how to trust God.


There is no particular order or some method to these.  But there is here is truth to help us walk with Jesus!


Read on.  Listen up.  Ask God to speak.


Psalm 27:14  NLT  

Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.


Waiting is a spiritual discipline.


Ephesians 1:3  NLT  

All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.


We are blessed by God.


Joshua 7:19  NLT  

Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the Lord, the God of Israel, by telling the truth. Make your confession and tell me what you have done. Don’t hide it from me.”


Don’t keep what God has done to yourself.  Tell everyone.


Jeremiah 29:7  NLT  

And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the Lord for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare.”


This is good.  Seek and work hard, and watch how God blesses you and those you serve.


2 Corinthians 8:21  NLT  

We are careful to be honorable before the Lord, but we also want everyone else to see that we are honorable.


Be honorable.  Live honorable lives.  It will make a difference. 


Psalm 30:4  NLT  

Sing to the Lord, all you godly ones! Praise his holy name.


Praising God is always right.


Each of these verses speaks volumes to me.  Seek the Lord, and let Him lead you!


Isaiah 55:6  NLT  

Seek the Lord while you can find him. Call on him now while he is near.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?"

For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
