action

I have been given an new opportunity to share my journey. I am finding that when you are open to share the Glory of God and how He moves in your life there is no shortage of opportunities. I am not even seeking them ... but God is seeking me. I have known for the past year that the Lord was going to use my son's life for a kingdom purpose.
Until recently, I have been able to move in small ways - now it appears that the Lord has other plans, bigger then me. Lord, I am willing - I trust YOU LORD.

FROM JOEL:
Put Your Faith into Action

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "No unbelief or distrust made him waver (doubtingly question) concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong and was empowered by faith as he gave praise and glory to God"(Romans 4:20, AMP)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria Do you know how powerful praise is? Praise is putting your faith into action. Just as putting your physical body into action makes it grow stronger, putting your faith into action through prayer and thanksgiving will cause it to grow strong, too! I love what this verse says about Abraham: No unbelief made him waver regarding the promise of God. To waver actually means to go back and forth. It's a very unsteady posture. Spiritual wavering is when we go back and forth in believing the promises of God. Spiritual wavering shows up in our words and actions. When you speak contrary to God's promises, you are wavering and unsteady. Notice this verse didn't say that Abraham never had unbelief or doubting thoughts. It says that he didn't waiver–he didn't allow his words or actions to go against God no matter what he was thinking. He took captive every thought and stood strong through His praise and worship! See, praise makes you stable. It makes you strong. It's hard to be negative when you are singing a song of praise to Him. Decide today to stand strong in worship. Put your faith into action with your words and watch what God will do on your behalf!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY "Heavenly Father, today I choose to bless Your name. I thank You for life. I thank You for breath. I thank You for provision, healing, strength, and joy. I praise You for abundantly supplying all my needs so that I can be a blessing to others. In Jesus' Name. Amen."

GRACE AND PEACE!
