When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your comforts delight me. Psalm 94:19 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
I recently heard a report about mental illness that stated one in five folks suffer from mental illness such as depression.
Why do you want to poison your mind and body with chemicals ( some like those with ADHS do require daily medication ) to treat this ailment?
Why not go to the best source for mental healing?
His name is Jehovah and He is deeply in love with you.
When you pour your heart out to Him when suffering depression , anguish, anger and confusion He will guide you.
He may guide you to Bible verses which encourage and strengthen you , He may guide you to resources like Christian therapists or guidance councillors which will help you deal with the core issues and help you make the right decisions.
As your healing begins and continues you will become more and more delighted with the results.
This will increase your love , respect and admiration for our amazing Heavenly Fathers love for you.
It sickens me to hear these liars spew forth this nonsense that if you just believe in yourself and try harder you will succeed.
That is wrong, misguided , satanic and downright evil.
Even if I believe in myself and try real hard I will not grown wings and fly like an eagle.
Follow the worlds advice and increase your suffering or follow Jehovahs advice and be eternally healed. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Rabbi (God our Teacher) for blessing me with Your Divine word , strength, encouragement and guidance through my numerous trials and tribulations . If not for You my believed I would never have survived the ordeals. I exalt You in the name of the wisest Teacher Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do super abundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us. Ephesians 3:20 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
He is the best super supplier there can ever be.
Notice that He does not say that He will not supply you with toys or expensive houses or the perfect mate or job.
This power supply is to accomplish the work He has predestined for His obedient children to do in His Divine plan.
It does not mean you will be eating steak and potatoes for breakfast every morning (most of us will be lucky to be eating rice and beans ).
As Jehovah is spirit so too will His abundant supply be spiritual.
If you notice it says that this power is with in us.
He will accomplish His tasks for us through the Holy Spirit which will abundantly supply us with wisdom , grace , humbleness and meekness. The work we accomplish in harmony with the Holy Spirit will stun those who knew us before we became Christ’s servants ( as Jesus is our king that means we are His bondsmen and women – that means we freely serve our King out of love , respect , and admiration ) .
I know it shocked many who had not seen me in a few decades the amazing transformation in my life.
As this is accomplished we ourselves will be amazed at just how much He can implement in those who are servile unto His Divine will. This will envelope us with awe , love and joy.
I still want to laugh in wonder at His incredible feats in my life when He still surprises me and I cannot but help shout : “ You are such an awesome God and I love you immeasurably my Love. “
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Jireh (God is our Provider) for blessing me with Your awesome provisions needed to accomplish the amazing feats You have prepared for me to accomplish in Your Heavenly plan for my life . I extol Thee in the name of He who provided for the four thousand Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
“No weapon that is formed against you will succeed; And every tongue that rises against you in judgment you will condemn. This [peace, righteousness, security, and triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And this is their vindication from Me,” says the Lord. Isaiah 54:17 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
Have you ever been set up by someone ?
You know , they are angry with you with out just cause or they are jealous of you so they set you up to embarrass you or to shame you in front of a crowd weather it be at school ,at work, at a family get together or in a social setting.
They think they are so smart don’t they ?
The trap the evil ones lay for the righteous the wicked will fall into themselves. Joseph- Anthony ;Green
We who are of Christ know that the Holy Spirit dwells with in us. We must pray for wisdom ,gracefulness, meekness and humbleness.
When confronted with their evil schemes the Holy Spirit will bless us with such to shoot them down and the shame shall come pouring down upon their heads like fiery coals.
I have read articles on how to deal with narcissists and stubborn folks which have helped me enormously. It is difficult to put into action at first but with practice it hones my skills and confidence. We are filled with peace and calm, wisdom and security during the confrontation.
Now we are not to become like them and be cruel, vindictive or arrogant. Then we shame our Beloved in Heaven.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Hoshe’ah – ( The Lord Saves ) for blessing me with Your incredible providence to escape the traps the wicked ones so arrogantly prepare for me in their evil schemes which they fall into themselves . I praise You in the name that escaped the wicked Pharasee’s traps Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
People loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. John 3:19-20 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
When I first became a Christian it confused me why certain folks hated me with a passion even though I did nothing to offend them.
After reading this first the Lord blessed me with understanding.
They hate all Christians because we who walk in the Light convict those that enjoy walking in the darkness. They know what they are doing is wrong ( the Holy Spirit convicts them ) yet steadfastly refuse to repent of their wicked ways. They laugh and say that either there is no God or He does not care.
When they encounter us true Christians their conscience is pricked and they do not like it.
Then in their evil perverted minds they conceive every torment they can upon us and laugh at our discomfort. They foolishly believe they are getting away with it.
Time and again it clearly states that Jehovah is a God of justice and He will deliver terrifying justice on His time and in His way.
From my experience those whom the wicked tormented will be witnesses to it. I certainly did not enjoy it, indeed , many times I wanted to cry watching them suffer, but accept that Jehovah cannot allow the wicked to go unpunished.
Those who walk in Christ will be avenged in Gods time in Gods way. Joseph- Anthony: Green
We do not gloat over it but allow it to digest into our heart and mind so that we can share this testimony with other tormentors in the hopes that they will repent.
As well, it is encouraging to those who are being wickedly persecuted. The Lord is on my side, He is among those who help me;
Therefore I will look [in triumph] on those who hate me. Psalm 118:6-7 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
Prayer: Thank You Jehovah-Hashopet (The Lord is the supreme Judge) for condemning the wicked ones and delivering true justice to the wicked ones that inflict pain and suffering upon the innocent ones. I praise You in the name of the Supreme Judge Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in and puts his confidence in the Lord will be exalted and safe. Proverbs 29:25 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
Here are four very important words we all need to remember : “ What do I care. “
There are plenty of wolves ( those who like to prey upon the weak and tear them down ) both inside inside the church ( as a matter of fact , I have encountered more inside the church than outside ) and outside ( most of the ones I have met outside the church are the satanic politically correct whose idea of free speech and thought is that you are entitled to your opinion as long as it agrees with mine. If you disagree with mine your are intolerant , racist , homophobic or sexist ) .
When they attack you unfairly for standing up to for the Truth just reply : You are the intolerant one who refuses to listen to the truth. Therefore as pertaining to your “ opinion” “ What do I care. “ and just stand there and allow them to scream at you and look like fools. Either that or they will shut up and walk away.
When they try to gang up on you just ask the ring leader why they are afraid to debate with you one on one. I have used this quite successfully numerous times.
Indeed most times after the confrontation many folks come up to me and thank me for standing up for the Truth ( even if they are not Christians ).
The Lord is my light and my salvation— Whom shall I fear? Psalm 27:1 Holy Bible Amplified Version.
Then there are the ones that laugh at you because you do not follow them down the road of despair. They are in despair because they try to keep up with the Jones and the Jones keep on changing the rules. I dress as I feel comfortable and respectable.
When someone mocks me because I do not keep up with the “in crowd” I reason with them like why they “have to have “ the latest mobile phone when there is nothing wrong with the one they have now. It makes them look silly. The conversation is ended when they ask me what others think of me because I do not keep up with the crowd with “ What do I care. “
I then ask them if they are nurturing their spirit as much as they are big business’ wallet. They are informed that I care what Jesus believes in me not what the “ in crowd “ thinks of me. It is a great opportunity to open up a dialogue on the Christian walk.
I care not what my fellow man thinks of me, I care what my Heavenly King believes in me. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Abba (God our Father) for blessing me with the assurance that it is only what You believe me to be in being Your cherished , loved child that is important not what the delusional think about me that is important in my life. I extol Thee in the name whose only concern when walking amongst us was in the belief of His Heavenly Father that mattered Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
Say to those with an anxious and panic-stricken heart, “Be strong, fear not! He will save you.” Isaiah 35:4 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Anxious is described as feeling or showing uncomfortable feelings of uncertainty.
We have all experienced anxiousness in our lives.
The difference between Christians and those of the world is that they have no where to turn to to provide them with concrete assurances that those they go to for help are in control and to fill them with peace.
We as Christians have the confidence in Jehovah who controls everything.
When we are obedient unto His guidance He will sooth out fears, comfort us and guide us to the best path to take out of the dark forest of uncertainty that envelopes us in whatever the circumstance is that is causing us apprehension.
Panic is defined as the emotion experienced in the presence or threat of danger.
Again those who are of the world panic when disaster is looming or is striking them. Those of us who belong unto Christ have His assurance that He will either walk through the fire with us like He did with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego.
He answered, “Look! I see four men untied, walking around in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt! And the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods!” Then Nebuchadnezzar approached the door of the blazing furnace and said, “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, servants of the Most High God, come out [of there]! Come here!” Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came out of the midst of the fire. The satraps, the prefects, the governors and the king’s counselors gathered around them and saw that in regard to these men the fire had no effect on their bodies — their hair was not singed, their clothes were not scorched or damaged, even the smell of smoke was not on them Daniel 3:25-27 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Or , He will deliver us from the storm like He did His disciples.
But as they were sailing, He fell asleep. And a fierce gale of wind swept down [ as if through a wind tunnel ] on the lake, and they began to be swamped, and were in great danger. 24 They came to Jesus and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are about to die!” He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging, violent waves, and they ceased, and it became calm [a perfect peacefulness]. Luke 8:23-25 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Those were real events Christian and are available unto You Jehovahs cherished child when you , in faith , call out unto Him.
I know , I have been through many furnaces and raging storms with Him in our walk towards the Heavenly home He has prepared for me.
“Knowing that I am not the one in control gives great encouragement. Knowing the One who is in control is everything.” — Alexander Michael
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-‘Immeku (The Lord Is With You) for always being there with me through my numerous trials and tribulations , sorrows and snares . Through all my pain and hardships . I could not have made it without Your comforting , reassuring and strengthening presence. I exalt You in the name of He who calmed the stroms of His disciples storms Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. Psalm 103:12 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Even though you have become a Christian do you still beat yourself up over the wicked lifestyle that you participated in before you came to Christ?
Why?
Have you repented of them ( Repent means admitting what you did was wrong – especially to those you have wronged if possible . Then apologizing for it. After that you must ask for forgiveness. ) . Then stop beating yourself up.
Jesus’ motto is ; ‘ Once forgiven , always forgiven. “
So , if Jesus does not beat you up why would you waste your time doing it?
There is no sin that cannot be forgiven when you repent. Joseph- Anthony: Green
“Blessed [forgiven, refreshed by God’s grace] are those who mourn [over their sins and repent], for they will be comforted [when the burden of sin is lifted]. Matthew 5:4 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Sometimes even though Jehovah has forgiven your sins , you must still pay retribution to those whom you have wronged. Joseph- Anthony: Green
Sometimes even though you have repented you must still pay retribution for your sins to society . So for example , say you got drunk , got in an accident and crippled someone , you must still pay retribution to those you have injured and justifiably do prison time.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-Hashopet (The Lord is the supreme Judge) for sanctifying me ( which means making you holy ) through the horrifying bloody sacrifice of Your most beloved son Jesus Christ. I am eternally grateful for this unwarranted gift and worship You in whose blood my filthy sins were cleansed Jesus Christ. Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
Turn to me [ Lord ] and be gracious to me, For I am alone and afflicted. Psalm 25:16-17 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Have you ever moved into an apartment by yourself ?
I have.
The first night the apartment seemed so big , even though it was small , dark and lonely. I prayed unto Jehovah , took out my Bible and read His reassuring words that said He is there. It was quite comforting , reassuring and blessed me with a good nights sleep.
The same thing happens to widows and widowers when their life long soul mate passes on to the other side. The loneliness is overpowering. Those who take solace in Jehovahs loving arms find peace , comfort and strength.
Have you ever moved to a different community , or to a country where they do not speak your language , have different customs and you know no one ?
I have.
It seemed so overwhelming ,scary and lonely ( indeed there were a few circumstances where there was no newspapers , radio stations or TV in my native language { this was before they had the internet } ). Boy were those some rough times. Throughout it all there was constant prayer and Jehovah blessed me with strength , courage , peace and reassurance that not only got me through it but helped me thrive in it. He kept on assuring me that He was there.
Precious child of Jehovah , whenever you feel alone and dejected take it to our Father in Heaven who loves you and cares about you so very much. Have your Bible close by. He will sometimes just envelope you in His Divine love and peace . Sometimes He will guide you to Bible Verses which will comfort , reassure , strengthen you and fill you with His love , peace , security and strength to see it through.
For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth so that He may support those whose heart is completely His. 2 Chronicles 16:9 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Heseh (God is love) for blessing me with Your abounding love and assurance when it seems like such a cold dark world. I praise You in the name of He who is the light of the world Jesus Christ. Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
“An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up. “ Proverbs 12:25 Holy Bible Amplified Version
Anxiousness is described as feeling or showing uncomfortable feelings of uncertainty .
We have all encountered those around us that are suffering. How many have reached out and touched them with healing kindness ?
How can we help them ?
The best thing to do is to show you care by listening to their problems ( Jehovah takes the time to listen to our problems should we not emulate Him by doing the same for those that are suffering around us ? ) .
We are not just talking about the homeless .
We are talking about those that are suffering a disease . Yes , for many , going into a hospital is an uncomfortable experience but how comfortable do you think it is for them. Why not go in and reminisce with them about the good ol days . Why not go in with some photo’s of happy times . Speaking from experience you will be amazed at the amount of good you accomplish.
We are talking about those who are having difficulty in their studies or at work. Those of us who are older can relate and provide encouraging words to strengthen , guide them and encourage them. What about those that are experiencing relationship problems like with marriage or children? Again , those of us who are older have walked that walk and can provide positive affirmation to them by our experiences which will guide them , strengthen them and reassure them .
There are so many other opportunities available unto you Christian. All you have to do is be available , pray and be obedient unto Jehovahs guidance where your help is needed.
Prayer: Please Jehovah-Machsi – Lord my Refuge bless me with the opportunity to be a refuge unto those enduring trials and tribulations , sorrows and snares just as You are for me. Bless me with Your divine wisdom , grace , meekness and humbleness to help them as You have aboundingly done for me . I humbly request this in the name of He who was a refuge to the poor , the sick and the weak when He walked amongst us Jesus Christ. Amen.
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
Pursue love, and desire spiritualgifts.1 Corinthians 14:1 Holy Bible, New King James Version
Are you a slave?
We are constantly bombarded on TV , the radio , in magazines and in society that we are nothing if we do not have the latest toys and gadgets. Have we not all seen the long line up where folks sometimes camp out to get the latest mobile phone? What is wrong with the old one ? Well , you will not fit in with the “ in crowd “ if you do not have it..
What is the root of it all ?
Pride.
These are of course very expensive which most people cannot afford. Do not worry as the dealer will give you easy credit in easy payments. The problem is that you end up making so may of these : easy payments “ that you cannot pay your bills or put food on the table.
I have seen people in soup kitchens because they cannot afford food. They cannot afford food because they just bought this expensive new toy or got a new tattoo.
After the glow of the new toy wheres off the need another toy fix do they go out and buy more stuff they do not need nor can afford. They are as bad as drug addicts. Most are quite unhappy and downright miserable.
That which they love has made them into a slave.
On the other hand there are the wise ones that relish their relationship with Jehovah. They are filled with love and the only way to become richer in love is to share it.
The only way to share it is to be blessed by Jehovah with spiritual gifts which they share with others. We are constantly requesting and thanking our Beloved when we share these in abundance with us.
The world looks at us as if we are crazy but we know who the real crazy one are don’t we?
Which do you desire ?
The so called pleasure of the world which enslaves you , leaves you unsatisfied and empty and makes you want more like a junkie or the spiritual gifts that fill our every core with amazing Heavenly love and leaves you feeling euphoric .
Prayer: Praise You Jehovah Heseh (God is love) for the most amazing gift of Your Heavenly love and the spiritual gifts to share them with the lost , empty souls that are enslaved in the material world. May You bless us with unlimited opportunities to share them so as to bless others with coming into the only satisfying life there every can be. I exalt You in the name of He who we attempt to emulate His love Jesus Christ . Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day.
