THE POWER



Good morning on this beautiful, frosty day!
It was -2* when I got up this morning. Mind you this is in the south. If you want to see what is going on and what has gone on, if you don't know, check out the Weather Channel at 214 on DishNet. My husband finally got out the morning. The main roads are fine and the others roads are not so fine as of yet. There is still snow and ice on our roads here. It is supposed to get up to 40 today so maybe the snow and ice will melt some or all would be great.

Our power went out this morning for about an hour. My husband was out cutting kindling and such to start a fire in the wood stove if it stayed out but it came back on in about an hour. Praise God!

Does your power go out, I mean spiritually? How do you keep the power of God on in your life? Well, first of all you have to turn the power on by asking Jesus to be the Lord and Savior of your life. And when you do that the Spirit of God comes upon you. Now we must ask Him to fill us every day and give us His power from upon high. The power of God is from His Holy Spirit. He is the power in our lives. And when we quench the Holy Spirit we are deliberately turning off the power.

‘However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to him’.
Rom 8:9

In everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Do not quench the Spirit; 
1 Thessalonians 5:18-19

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 
Ephesians 4:30 

So, ask Jesus into your heart, live for Him in obedience, worship, prayer, reading His Word, attending church, and serving Him however He leads. And keep the Power of God on in your life so as the Day approaches you will be ready. And let His light shine!

"Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one other - and all the more as the Day approaches." 
Hebrews 10:25 

Have an awesome day!

Choosing Jesus Every Day: Don't Be Lazy

...to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:2b-3 Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Greetings And to us all! I have not written here in 5 months. Forgive me! Life is so busy these days. My husband, Bert, and I thought retirement would be less busy and more, well retired. But that is okay! I believe we are following the path that God wants us on at this time of our lives and that He knows best. So, praise be to our God and Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, for His great guidance! My devotion this morning was very interesting. Bert and I have had this conversation many times when he was still working full time and pastoring. We discussed the fact that our house needs attention. A house will fall if it is not taken care of. And, of course, he was work

KNOW HIM

I took this picture yesterday. It was amazing!   Good morning to you on  this blessed and chilly day! May God fill you with His love and His Spirit. He is awesome! He is miraculous! He is the great I AM! He is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last! He is our Lord of lords and King of kings. He is my Savior! Is He yours? Jesus is coming back soon. Do you know Him? I am going to share this video with you again. I shared it once before and it is amazing. We can never hear it enough. And if you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, listen very carefully. That's My King Dr. S.M. Lockridge This video says it all! If you don't know Him, get to know Him. Read God's Word. Fellowship with other believers in church and out of church. Talk to Him in prayer.  Now I am not saying that believers are perfect but far from it. We are all on a journey to know Him better. Churches are not a hotel for saints, but a hospital

VICTORY

Saturday Good morning to you! The beach is waiting. I can't wait to get away. To rest. To regenerate. To be revived. And sometimes we just need to get away from our daily routine in order to do that. Get away from the phone and stuff like that. Unfortunately, with cell phones, these days we don't get away from the calls. It never fails that we go on vacation and always someone calls about my husband's work, either a person that works for him or someone wanting to get work done. But in all reality that is good. It means that the business is not dead. Praise the Lord for that! The beach does so much for me. I have the best time and the most relaxing time at the beach. I guess it is in my blood. I was born at the beach (a town at the beach). I lived near the beach for about 15 of my growing up years. My grandparents built a house in Malibu, CA overlooking the ocean when I was a kid. (When I find the picture I will post it.) So, I feel like I belong there and I
