The
blessings keep coming. It started the day she tried on her wedding
dress. I was there in support. Afterwards, the entire group decided
to get a bite to eat. In my purse, I had seventy cents and on my
card, I had three dollars plus some change.
Upon
arrival to the restaurant, we were greeted and seated by the
waitress. While checking out the menu, I wondered what I could order
that would not be over the bit of money I had in my purse. I could
play it safe by ordering a pop or coffee. Hmmm,...
The
waitress appeared as the group was discussing what they were going to
order. Since they served breakfast, lunch and dinner, I asked for a
side order of toast. The group suggested I get the french toast,
which was waaay out of my budget. But, I said, OK and ordered it.
All
along, I had been praying in my head for the LORD to help me. When
the food came, I prayed for the group, thanking God for our meal. We
all enjoyed ourselves. They even tasted some of my french toast.
Now,
bill time had arrived. I kept praying inside; not knowing what I was
going to do, and not wanting to be a burden. The waitress asked how
we wanted to split the bill. The beautiful bride to be spoke up first
and said she would be paying for me and herself. What a big relief
that was! In my head, I said a big,
“THANK
YOU LORD”
Wait!
There's More..
That
following week, there was another scheduled event. It was a family
birthday event, given at a $$ steak house restaurant. The LORD
blessed me with the funds to attend in advance. I even order dessert,
not worrying about the final cost of the bill. I knew that our
Heavenly Father had taken care of everything.
Matthew
6:25 says:
Therefore
I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or
what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is
not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
Wait!
There's More...
Two
days later, I receive two email notices that one of my bills had been
miraculously paid and money was funded to me on my card. The amount
given altogether, was more than the money spent at the $$ restaurant!
With the added funds, a few other bills were able to be paid as well.
I
am overjoyed and ever so grateful for the LORD being in my life.
I
thank, pray, honor and praise HIM for all things. Sometimes,
situations come up in our lives where we don't know what to do, or
how we're going to make it through.
But,
the LORD knows! He loves and cares about every detail in our lives.
He
even knows the number of hairs we have on our head.
Our Hairs Are Numbered
But
the very hairs of your head are all numbered. -
Matthew 10:30
But
even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not
therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. - Luke 12:7
The
LORD is with us always! He has already paved our way.
The
LORD is trustworthy. He goes with and before us.
The LORD Is Here
Be
strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for
the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail
thee, nor forsake thee. Deuteronomy 31: 6.
And
the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he
will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be
dismayed. Deuteronomy 31:8.
Our Path Is Directed
Trust
in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding.
In
all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. -
Proverbs 3:5-6
Whether
online or off, I spread the Word of the LORD in many ways.
Praying
for others, through pamphlets, writing, venues, media, verbally and
more are some examples that the WORD of the LORD can spread.
We
all are obligated to spread the Word, in whatever way the LORD leads
us to do so.
Let
someone know today how the LORD is working in your life. There are
still a lot of people that have not been saved; who have not accepted
Jesus Christ, the Son of God as their LORD and Savior.
If
you are one of them, now is a great time to accept Jesus Christ into
your life.
Accept
your Salvation Package. Healing, health, forgiveness of sins,
deliverance from temporal evil, salvation and eternal life... is
yours. Jesus died and has delivered us.
But
he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his
stripes we are are healed. - Isaiah 53:5
There
is only One Way to the Kingdom of God. It is through God's Son, the
Lord Jesus Christ.
By
receiving God's exalted Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, as our Lord and
Savior, you can be saved and have all of God's gifts.
For
the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord. - Romans 6:23
That
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead that
thou shalt be saved.
For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation.
Romans
10:9-10
You
may repeat The Salvation Prayer below out loud.
Salvation
Prayer:
Lord
Jesus, I believe you are the Son of God and that you died on the
cross for our sins. Lord Jesus, come into my life and my heart as my
Lord and Savior. I accept and will serve you for the rest of my life.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
Congratulations
to you who have just dedicated yourself to our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ!
Pray
and let the LORD lead you. -
Proverbs 3:5-6
Encourage
each other and continue to bring others to the Kingdom of God just
the way you came.
And
to love HIM with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and
with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his
neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and
sacrifices. - Mark 12:33
