I am encouraged today because God leads me, defends me, and provides for me. God's promises are sure!

John 17:3 ESV – And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.

Revelation 19:6 ESV Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty reigns. The Lord is our God!"

“So Moses told the people of Israel everything just as the LORD told Moses…” This morning we will all take our places and share with our people. What will we say? Do not stand and speak without words from God! Do not stand and speak and not share everything from God, even the hard parts! Do not try to fix or change the words the Lord has given. Just be prepared and then proclaim! You’ve been lifted up before the Father!

Be faithful today and know that God remembers you!

If you are struggling this morning, don’t think you are alone. So many Sunday mornings we all find ourselves at a place where what we are called on to do and what we need to do may be at odds. There are times when preparation and presentation do not meet!

As those who love and trust the Lord, we are able to bless the Lord NOW and FOREVER. May we never stop. What a joy and privilege! PRAISE THE LORD!

This morning, if people are misunderstanding who Jesus was, why are we surprised when they don’t understand or accept who we are?

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.” John 14:12

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalms 46:1 God's word for you today is to quit looking back, and look ahead. Stop worrying about the season that was, and prepare for the season to come. Nobody likes change, but change is part of this life. Now is the time to trust the Lord, and let Him guide you into this new season of your life. He loves you and cares about you. He knows your every need. He desires to bless you more than you ever imagined
