Peace

rainbow over the prairies“Rest in Me, and don’t lean upon your own understanding,” means surrender, give up your way, and follow Me, and trust that My plan for you is best.

Sometimes things don’t appear to be a blessing in your life – yet I promise to use all things for good (Romans 8:28).

When problems overwhelm you, when there seems to be no way out, trust Me. Spend time in prayer. You are My child and I have a plan for you and provision for you.

Read My Word. Study Psalm 91, and know that I will never leave you alone. Sometimes the solution is simply PEACE. Let go and trust Me. This peace will change everything in your life. It will change your words, your actions, and your heart.

“Peace I give unto you.”  Rest in it. Live with it always. Be anxious for nothing.

God Wants His Kingdom to Come to Earth

It’s possible to have a saved soul, but a lost life. How can that be? Pastor Gray discusses prayer, faith, discipline, and forgiveness.

He expounds on the power of the tongue and how we are to stand against the trials in our lives.

Life and death is in the power of the tongue, and it will destroy you or make you. The tongue allows the abundance of the heart to speak.

Listen in to how prayer, faith, discipline, and forgiveness impact our lives.

What Does It Mean to Be Ready? 9-2-2018

Influence

child reading the BibleEveryone will be influenced by someone or something.

I gave My Word that My children would follow it, be instructed by it, trust in it.

Be radically influenced by My Word.

What is impacting you? Are you being led by feelings of truth?

The truth makes you free; releases you from things that are false. The truth has the power to stop wrong actions, wrong words, things that destroy. But as an auto cannot run without fuel, My children cannot live successfully without My Word in them.

Read it, hear it, soak in it. It will influence your actions. And your heart.

The Way of Repentance 8-26-18 Pastor Gray

In 2 Samuel 12:1-13, the prophet Nathan comes before King David with a story of a rich man who took the only ewe lamb of a poor man. This angers King David and he demands that man repay 4 lambs for the one.

When then told he was the rich man, King David repents of his sin with Bathsheba.

Anything birthed out of sin, God will not bless nor will He advance it. We must deal with any sin or transgression before entering God’s throne room.

Are there Giants in Your Land?

Pikes Peak, Colorado at sunsetDon’t be fearful or afraid to occupy the promises the Lord has given you. Don’t just settle for less when you know the Father has more for you.

Self-doubt holds back more believers than any other enemy.

But know this: when you know something is from Me and you’re obedient to step out in it, I will keep your back and bless you for overcoming that fear. I say choose blessings or curses. They don’t choose, you do!

Focus on My love and provision and you’ll soon be on that mountain and not living in the dark valley. But know this, those whom I can trust in small matters will be leaders of much larger ones. Because in times such as this, leaders must press on for the goal and not give up, ever.

Are you ready to go to higher ground?

Our Thorn in the Flesh 8-19-2018

Pastor Larry Gray expounds on 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 concerning Paul’s thorn in the flesh. What it wasn’t, what it was, and why God didn’t take it away.

The apostle Paul’s thorn in the flesh was not a physical condition, but a messenger from the devil. God allowed it to protect Paul from pride because God gave him such great revelations about the Kingdom. In the same way, God may allow something similar to happen to us. God’s grace is greater than anything the devil can send against us. And God’s grace is sufficient for us in our weakness.

You Are Not to Keep Score!

forest pathSo many of My children feel like they have let Me down, not done anything to please Me. The only way to let Me down is to not finish the race. Keep walking the path before you and it will lead you exactly where I want you to be.

Don’t rely on feel-good scorecards. Just because something feels good, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is good for you. Or that it is My plan.

My peace is what should lead you. Don’t go there is you don’t sense My peace in your heart. Don’t keep score for that usually means you’re looking at your past. Today is where you live.

Rejoice that your name is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. That’s the only scorecard you’ll ever need!

You are mine, always.
