Be Still and Know that I am God


It is a good thing to train ourselves to BE STILL - and KNOW that God is God.

God has promised to never leave us nor forsake us - He is with us always.  He is a very present help in times of trouble.  BUT it can be so easy to feel under pressure and forget that no matter what is going on around us our God is God in everything.

Whatever situation we find ourselves in, it is so important to know what God has to say about it - regardless of what everyone is saying - but the problem is that when we get under pressure it becomes very difficult to hear what God is saying to us.

When we allow ourselves to be still - for even a few moments and remind ourselves that we have a heavenly Father who loves us and that he has sent his Holy Spirit to comfort us, to teach us and to lead us.  As we worship and praise Him for who he is and just lift our eyes to him - he is ready and willing to speak to us and direct us in peace and joy. 

This little video has some promises to remind you that God is with you and you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you - please take a few moments just to be still and let the knowledge of how much God loves you rise in your heart.  And Know that He is your God and He is with you always.  xx

God is Good - HALLELUJAH

God is Good ALL the Time - HALLELUJAH This is a song we often sing in church - I love the words - but I'm so glad that the songs we sing aren't just about good words and catchy tunes - but they help us to express the wonder and gratitude to our Almighty Father and creator, and Lord and King.  How wonderful it is to be lost in Awe of his majesty, and wonderful and amazing love. When we consider that he has forgiven us and called us his own, we cannot stay silent but yet words fail to express what we feel.  So our whole body is moved - our hands raise up and our feet want to dance. I used to live in a house where my kitchen window looked out into the back of other houses - and one day I was singing this song and dancing in my kitchen, when I suddenly noticed that my neighbors (the 3 children and the mother) where all standing at their upstairs window watching me - at first I thought I should stop but I didn't because I really didn't care because I am not ashamed of

Rejoice Ahead of Time

To Rejoice Ahead of Time really is faith in action, because as we believe and receive we begin to rejoice in spirit that what we are believing for is on it's way now - that our prayer has been heard and has been answered.  There is a great expectation that something is going to happen - we don't know how or where and in what way things will change but like a child waiting on a surprise we are looking and listening with excitement and expectation.  This kind of faith is not easily shaken.  Even more bad news can become a stepping stone under our feet that lifts us up even higher and enables us to reach even deeper into the love and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ.  When we allow ourselves to Rejoice and to be Thankful to God for answering our prayers it pleases the heart of our Heavenly Father and brings joy to him.  It is this joy that strengthens us to stand strong.  I used to believe that God would answer my prayer or heal me etc some TIME in the future, that everyt

Remember the good things

Image
Do you see the little bird in the picture?  Sitting so pretty, not a care in the world.  What a beautiful picture of tranquility and contentment.   Matthew 6 v 26 Jesus said  Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Have you ever asked yourself this question?  Today I have been thinking about how good God is and how worthy he is to be praised.  My heart is grieved at all the 'bad news' it seems that people remember the bad things easier than the good things. I have always loved to praise God and to sing praises to him.  I was very quiet and shy as a child, and was never asked to sing at sunday school or school, in fact I was told a number of times that I wasn't good enough.  But this didn't stop me singing to God, He never told me I wasn't good enough.  I didn't sing because I thought I was good at it, I sang because I wanted t
