Your God

God bears your burdens.
God is your salvation.
God is your deliverer.
God shatters the heads of your enemies.
God is your strength.
He is a shield round about you.

Bless The Lord with all your heart and soul!
Bless Him both in the good and bad times.

Know that The Lord your God is always with you,
Forever and ever.

Encouragement

Know that The Lord is God and that He is always with you.
He loves you and will never leave you nor forsake you.
He gave His life so that you would have life everlasting.
He knows your hearts desire and He knows every tear you have shed.

"And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

The Christmas Blessing

The Christmas blessing has withstood the sands of time. No other story
has gone down through history from one generation to the next with
such a profound impact.
Jesus, Our Messiah, was born for us and now as Christmas approaches
we once again get ready to celebrate His birth in the same wondrous
amazement as on that very day.

"Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for
all the people: for unto you is born this day in the City of David a Savior,
who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:10, 11 ESV

Christmas Time

Christmas time has come again;
a time of joy
and
wonderment.
The wee one,
the babe,
was born on that faithful day.
The child,
who grew up,
to one day,
become the Messiah
for all of
mankind.
 
The amazement of it all!
 
Happy Birthday Jesus!

Angels

Have you noticed the fascination with angels?

There are numerous books out on angels. Paintings with depictions of angels,
jewelry, and statues.

This fascination tends to worry me at times. There is nothing wrong with
learning of angels and in the books, jewelry and so on as long as they are
kept in the right perspective, but when people get obsessed about angels
then there is a problem.

We know that angels exist as the scriptures say so, but they are here
to do God's bidding. They are the messengers and servants of God.

Our focus must always remain on God. We are not to worship the angels.
The angels worship God. (Revelation 5:11-12 and 7:11-12)

There are some that believe in angels, but do not believe in their creator.
It boggles the mind! You cannot have one without the other.
Angels exist because of the CREATOR!

Angels attend to and worship God:                Matthew 18:10; Revelation 5:11-12
Angels protect God's people:                           Daniel 6:22; Acts 5:19
Angels guide God's people:                               Matthew 25:5-7; Acts 8:26, 27:23-24
Angels bring judgment on the wicked:         Revelation 16

There are many more scriptures that show what angels are here for,
but none indicate that they are to be exalted above God or that we are
to bow our knee before them.  

We must keep our awe and reverance on God only. We must bow to God and
only God.

Be diligent my friends and be careful of false doctrine.

Blessings,
Shifra

My Shepherd

The Lord is my Shepherd
and I will not stray.
I will stay within
His reach.
He leads and guides me
along the way and I
will forever give Him praise.
I will forever give Him praise.

I am a lamb that once
was lost.
I could not find
my way.
The Shepherd reached out
and rescued me from the
mirey pit of clay;
from the mirey pit of clay.

When I wander off the path
that He intends for me;
He will gently nudge me with
His staff,
drawing me back to the fold.
He draws me back to the fold.

If I stumble and fall I need not
be ashamed.
My Shepherd once again lifts
me up,
leading me to His pasture
so green.
He leads me to His pasture
so green.

When I am in a dry spot
and cannot quench my thirst,
My Shepherd holds out
His hand
and guides me to His well.
He guides me to His well.

The Lord is my Shepherd
and I will not stray.
I will stay within
His reach.
He leads and guides me
along the way and I
will forever give Him praise.
I will forever give Him praise.
