DO YOU FEAR HIM?


My husband's view on his way to work this
morning. The Cherokee National Forest. 
Yes, he pulled over! This is just a part
of God's Glory and Majesty!

Good morning!

Galatians 1:3-5 NIV:

3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4 who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

I will try to greet you and end with scripture every time I post. 

I want, but God wants even more, for you to know how much He loves you. How much He wants you to be His child. He created you. He knows your every hair, and cell in your body. But He wants you to believe in Him, accept Jesus, and make Him your Lord and Savior! He wants you to fear Him and only Him. (I will have an explanation shortly.)

Have you had things happen to you that you wish didn't? Don't we all! 

2019 ended on an uneven note for us. Very extensive and expensive car troubles for 5 weeks or so. Illness to the point of missing Christmas almost completely for both my husband and me. He is better. I am better but not better. I have had many tests in the last week to find out what is going on in my body. Some things were ruled out. Praise God! And some things have not! Praise God! I still have some more tests and need to go to more doctors. But do you know what? I still praise God because He is so good and is always with me no matter what. I praise Him for His love, mercy, and grace! I praise Him for His constant care! I praise Him for always being with me and never leaving me! And He never will no matter what! I praise Him for the healing in His wings. I am claiming this healing that only God can give. And I will fear Him and only Him! I will not fear what the evil one can do to me. I love Jesus because He is so worthy! And even if you don't love and accept Him at this time, He loves you anyway, and unconditionally, even if you don't want Him to or even care if He does. He will anyway!

Malachi 4:2a NKJ:

"But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings;"

 What is this fear? Here is an explanation.

A Humble Fear Of God-By Mark Altrogge-Senior Pastor, Sovereign Grace Church of Indiana, PA from biblestudytools.com
"So, in what sense are we to fear God? The “fear” that brings God pleasure is not our being afraid of him, but our having a high and exalted, reverential view of him.
To “fear him” means to stand in awe of him: “Let all the earth FEAR the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world STAND IN AWE OF HIM!” (Ps 33.8).

To fear the Lord is to stand in awe of his majesty, power, wisdom, justice and mercy, especially in Christ – in his life, death and resurrection – that is, to have an exalted view of God. To see God in all his glory and then respond to him appropriately. To humble ourselves before him. To adore him."
This explanation is simple and yet awesome. When we make Jesus our Lord this is the fear of God we must have. He is Sovereign. He should be High and Lifted Up in our lives. He should be believed, trusted, and followed. 
For God is faithful! He is true! He is forgiving! He is amazing!
I am going to give you this link about what God is like. And this is only a small part of what God is like. Click this link: 
Seek Him yourself and just see who He is and what He can be for you. Then, you must believe and accept Jesus as your Savior in order to know Him and love Him completely. Then, pray, seek, and study His Word. Get to know Him. You will be glad you did!
Hebrews 13:25:
Grace be with you all.
Have a blessed and awesome day!
Love,    Lesbear

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...

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...

DROUGHT

  Good morning to you! Has it been raining where you are? It rained pretty good last night here. We need it. Actually we will take it all just so we aren't in the drought category. I saw on the weather yesterday that a lot of the country is in a severe drought.  Are you in a severe drought spiritually? I hope not but if you are, here are some scriptures that might help. Look to the LORD and his  strength; seek his face always. 1 Chronicles 16:11 The LORD is my strength and  my song; he has become my salvation.  He is my God, and I will praise him,  my father's God, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2 So do not fear, for I am with you;  do not be dismayed, for I am your  God. I will strengthen you and help you;  I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.   Isaiah 41:10 Do you not know? Have you not heard?  The LORD is the everlasting God, the  Creator of the ends of the e...
