      Do you want to be happy? Fix your eyes on heaven; there your heart will find what will satisfy it completely.

      We must pray without ceasing, in every occurrence and employment of our lives; that prayer which is rather a habit of lifting up the heart to God as in a constant communication with him. Posted via email from sistersister's posterous

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains. – Mark 13:8 (NIV) The earthquakes that we have just experienced remind us that all of creation is groaning and waiting for something new. May we understand the signs of the times and see these events as promptings to join with God in the renewal of all things. Don’t shrink back when the ground shakes, but realign your life for God and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ; the coming King who will bring a new heaven and earth with Him Posted via email from sistersister's posterous

1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.

  In sorrow and suffering, go straight to God with confidence, and you will be strengthened, enlightened, and instructed.

      Enter into the secret chamber of your heart; leave everything outside but God; And when you have shut the door, then truly seek him.

You might have to release forgiveness or start acting like you have already received your miracle. Do whatever He tells you! God knows how to take you out of your mess to your miracle, from poverty to prosperity and from sorrow to joy. Sometimes the instructions God gives you may not make sense to anyone, but do whatever He tells you! I’m sure Noah wondered why God had him build an ark in the desert. Abraham probably wondered why God would have him pick up and leave his homeland. These men remained faithful and reaped His blessings! Faith causes you to ignore the realm of your five senses and believe what God tells you. God will always ask you to do something that requires your faith to be stretched, something that will make you trust in Him! Second Corinthians 5:7 says, “We ...

“ I pray not that Thou shouldst take them out of the world. ” John 17:15 It is a sweet and blessed event which will occur to all believers in God’s own time: Going home to be with Jesus. In a few more years the Lord’s soldiers, who are now fighting “ the good fight of faith ” ( 1 Timothy 6:12 ) will be done with conflict, and will enter into the joy of their Lord. But although Christ prays that His people will eventually be with Him where He is, He does not ask that they may be taken at once away from this world to heaven. He wishes them to stay here. Yet how frequently does the wearied pilgrim put up the prayer, “ Oh that I had wings like a dove! For then would I fly away and be at rest .” But Christ does not pray like that. He leaves us in His Father’s hands until, like corn fully ripe, we shall each be gathered into our Master’s presence. Jesus does not plead for our instant removal by death. Our abiding in the flesh i...
