Waiting on God!!

As the year is beginning to unfold, I have been reading the word of God, I have download on my desktop a Bible Explorer.  I will say with Gods help I have been reading the word of God. and reading Devotional like Waiting On God!

Waiting On God is a great devotional there is so much there that I needed to know and the writer really hit home.  When I would pray and it seem that God did not and answer my prayers or maybe there was something I was doing wrong.  I realized that we are of more importance in all of God creation.  Yet in all thing God is faithful to answer.  We need to Wait.I thank God for his teaching .

Here is some examples fron the Devotional-Waiting On God

What the universe and the animal creation do unconsciously, God's people are to do intelligently and voluntarily. Man is to be the interpreter of Nature. He is to prove that there is nothing more noble or more blessed in the exercise of our free will than to use it in waiting upon God

Wait upon God as a Living Being, as the Living God, who notices you, and is just longing to fill you with His salvation. Wait on God till you know you have met Him; prayer will then be come so different.


And when you are praying, let there be intervals of silence, reverent stillness of soul, in which you yield yourself to God, in case He may have aught He wishes to teach you or to work in you. Waiting on Him will become the most blessed part of prayer, and the blessing thus obtained will be doubly precious as the fruit or such fellowship with the Holy One, God has so ordained it, in harmony with His holy nature, and with ours, that waiting on Him should be the honor we give Him. Let us bring Him the service gladly and truthfully; He will reward it abundantly.

"The eyes of all wait upon Thee, and Thou givest them their meat in due season." Dear soul, God provides in Nature for the creatures He has made: how much more will He provide in Grace for those He has redeemed. Learn to say of every want, and every failure, and every lack of needful grace: I have waited too little upon God, or He would have given me in due season all I needed. And say then too,

"My soul, wait thou only upon God!"

The special surrender to the Divine guidance in our seasons of prayer must cultivate, and be followed up by, the habitual looking upwards "all the day." As simple as it is, to one who has eyes, to walk all the day in the light of the sun, so simple and delightful can it become to a soul practiced in Waiting on God, to walk all the day in the enjoyment of God's light and leading. What is needed to help us to such a life is just one thing: the real knowledge and faith of God as the one only source of wisdom and goodness, as ever ready, and longing much to be to us all that we can possibly require—yes! this is the one thing we need. If we but saw our God in His love, if we but believed that He waits to be gracious, that He waits to be our life and to work all in us,—how this Waiting on God would become our highest joy, the natural and spontaneous response of our hearts to His great love and glory!

"My soul, wait thou only upon God!"

Into the New Year!

As the New Year crept in and the Old Year faded out. There was much to be thankful. I count it all gain through the good times and the not so good times. And through those times God never failed. Even if I was undeserving yet i was reminded that Gods love is unconditional.  I was remindeed the Lord is my help, Psalms 121:1-2 I will left up mind eyes into the hills from whence cometh my help my help cometh from the lordthe maker of heaven and earth.

2010 Reflecting

Looking back at 2010 there was lots of times that I really cried out for Help, yet those times helped to build up my character. After looking back at a previous posting titled "My Help", realized that there was another song that God laid on my heart. It took me some time for me to find the song I went to sleep with that song on my mind I woke up still that song played on my mind. I know that God had laid that peticular song on my heart to remind me that, my help cometh from the Lord .

Psalms 121 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help my help cometh from the Lord the maker of Heaven and earth ......
God has always been there for me and will continue to be there no matter his love is unconditional.

The Closing of Another Year *(Opening Of a New Year)

As the year winds down to a close and the New Year slowly creeps in, I am reminded of the scriptures and the Music God has laid on my heart at the beginning of the year 2010 on Jan 1, 2010. these were the scriptures that God laid on my heart; Psalms 1:1-5, Psalms 121:1-2, Matthew 6:33,  and sometime later the Music by Casting Crowns titled "Slow Fade". Later I found a teaching Video by Leadsinger and Youth Pastor Mark Hall on Psalms 1:15 which may have inspired the song "Slow Fade".

After Reflecting on those scriptures and Music I am reminded that during the year I slowly faded and did not draw near to God because I was to peoccuppied with other things  yet God has always been there for me,  continually reminding me how much he loved me.  Our down falls do not happen overnight, Its a slow fade or progression.  Here is a part of the lyrics.

It's a slow fade when you give yourself away

It's a slow fade when black and white have turned to gray
Thoughts invade, choices are made, a price will be paid
When you give yourself away
People never crumble in a day
Daddies never crumble in a day
Families never crumble in a day

The question I ask myself is why am I so preoccuppied. My mind should be on God.
What is the Age old Question You would ask youself?

Difficulties Letting My Light Shine!

Lately I have not been a good christian. At work things are happening, and no matter what, it can become very difficult. I keep asking myself is it because I am being Envious. I need to seek help and prayer to humble my heart. I need to let my light shine and to stay focus.

Question and more question?

There a question that seems to cross my mind on occassion.  Are we living in the most important time of history?  Will I be ready for when the world ends?, or as the many faith base people who believe in God, Will I be caught up in the rapture?  Its a question I really can say I am not sure. 
Most faith base people believe once saved always saved.  I believe only God knows the answer to the age old question who will be saved.
I know that I am a sinner and god despise the sinner. Romans 3:23 (KJV) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;  Romans 6:23 (KJV) For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. God at the end of that scripture,says BUT THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE.  God's gift is JESUS CHRIST whom he gave his only SON to DIE for our SINS. We all have different  interpretation of the word of God.  I can only hope by prayer to stay within his grace, yet it is such a struggle to remain FREE OF SIN,  when there are MANY STRONGHOLD in ourlives.  I have many stronghold that only by prayer and with Gods help can I be set free.  I know that there are many people have struggles and trying to be obedient to the word of god is difficult, Only with Gods help is it possible.

Reap

Its been awhile since I have written in my blog.  There is so much on my mind that I have not been, true to the One (GOD) person that matters the most.  We like to think that no body sees or hears the things that we so think are done in secret.  Yet if you really are not faith base or believe in God than, such things we do does not matter.  Yet I truly believe everything you do in life to yourself God and others wether it be good or bad wil return. 
The cliche "what goes around comes around" does come around.  The scripture "What you sow you reap." Is so true you reap.  We may think we get away with it but we really don't.  Yet God continues to love us unconditionally
