Starting Your Day with a Thankful Heart | GodLife

Starting Your Day with a Thankful Heart | GodLife   :  Scripture: He fell to the ground at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done... Jesus asked, “Didn’t I heal ten men? Where are the other nine?..” Luke 17:12-17 One day, Jesus healed 10 lepers of their disease. As loving and kind as our Savior is, He noticed that only one leper thanked Him. Do you ever forget to tell God thank you? Don’t forget what Jesus has done for you Sometimes we pray for months or years to the Father asking for a job, a home or a child. Year after year Elizabeth, Mary’s cousin, longed to be a mother. Finally, the blessing came and God gave her John the Baptist as her son. Her husband, Zechariah, gave God thanks and praise in this prayer: “Praise the Lord, the God of Israel...And you my little son, will be called the prophet of the Most High, because you will prepare the way of the Lord.” Luke 1:68, 76. Once we receive a blessing, we can be so involved with the gift that we forget to thank God—ju

God In The Midst Of The Storm!!

Where is God? Closer than you may expect. What can He do about it? More than you can imagine. Written by GodLife on 22/11/2015 Read More: Weekly Devotional Scripture: “….We found trouble all around us. We had fighting on the outside and fear on the inside.” 2 Corinthians 7:5 Times like this feel like a gathering storm. News of attacks around the world, claiming innocent lives, plane crashes in the Sinai Peninsula, bombings in Beirut, and attacks on the streets of Paris make us wonder--when will it all end? Confusing times require honest questions These brutal attacks took us by surprise. Any of us could have been among the victims who lost their lives or their loved ones in a moment. Where is God in all of this? Does He even care about the innocent victims, or that people are scared, traumatized, lost and insecure? Where do we go for answers? For protection? How do you ride out such a storm, knowing you’re so vulnerable? Calling on God–and finding Him close at hand Twelve men

Request prayer for peace in the world

Request prayer for peace in the world   : Scripture: “I’ve [Jesus] said these things to you so that you will have peace in me. In the world you have distress. But be encouraged! I have conquered the world.”  John 16:33 (CEV) “You are from God, little children, and you have defeated these people [people against God] because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” 1 John 4:4 (CEV)

What Is Worship?

“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” Mark 12:30 This verse describes true worship. Do you worship your Maker? We need to know what worship is, what it isn't, and why it matters so much to our God and to our souls. What Worship Is God defines worship as "love": "Love the Lord your God." Love is a verb, an action word. It requires doing, not just attending church, listening to a sermon, singing hymns, or giving money. You've only worshipped when you've loved, adored, and honored. And it is about loving God in every way a human can love. With all our hearts: our emotions and senses. With all our souls: the life force itself, that which gives our bodies life, our essence. Worship involves a passionate love for God. With all our minds: We are to have no ungodly thoughts, or songs, or movies, or television shows, or books in our minds (see Psalm 101:3). We are to think about

God's faithfulness

Share about God's faithfulness   :  Scripture:     “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.”   Psalm 46:1 (NLT) Do you ever feel like you have no one you can depend on when life gets hard? God says that not only is He your strength, but He’s also your refuge. What does refuge mean? Well, some other words for refuge are: safe place, home, security, and fortress. So no matter the situation you may be in, place your faith in God because His fortress can never be torn down. How can you take refuge in God? We’re glad you asked! Write back, let’s chat.

Are You A Refugee?

Even when the life you know is destroyed and your hopes feel crushed, God can still pour His goodness into your life. Written by Hope on 08/11/2015 Read More: Weekly Devotional Scripture: “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.” Psalm 46:1 (NLT) The “Islamic State” is wreaking terror over large parts of Iraq and Syria. Boko Haram carries out attacks in Nigeria and neighboring states. Governments oppress their own people across Africa, while some countries persecute minorities on a massive scale. Those being oppressed are often forced to flee their homelands. Are you one of them? God Still Loves You Did you know that Jesus Himself was a refugee? Within the first couple years of His life, Jesus and His family were forced to “flee to Egypt” (Matthew 2:13), because King Herod the Great of Judaea gave orders that would have resulted in Jesus’s death. God allowed His infant Son to experience what you are experiencing right now. Although it might fee

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” Hebrews 11:1

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” Hebrews 11:1 Faith, the Bible says is the substance of what you hope for, and title-deed of unseen realities. In others words faith means that the things you were hoping for are now your present-hour possessions. This is where the demonstration of faith comes to play. If it is true that what you hope for is now yours, then you ought to act that way. For example, you might have prayed to God for something concerning yourself, believing He will do it. If you truly believe that God heard your prayer, then you shouldn't come back tomorrow and pray about the same thing again. You should now begin to act like someone who has received from God: that's how to put your faith to work. Understand that faith is active and not passive; faith acts now because it has taken possession. That's why the Bible says, “Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone” (James 2:17). This means faith with

Prayer Today

Ephesians 6:10 - 13 says: "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand". In both 15min sessions at 12noon and 10pm (Local/GMT), we'll pray mostly in tongues. Affirm that your faith prevails over the adversary, and that you walk victoriously in life, taking paths predestined for you in Christ, fulfilling your purpose unhindered; the Lord granting you more grace to fulfill His will and calling. Declare that you have abundant supply to meet every need, now and always. Amen. Blessed be the name of the Lord. Remember today's midweek service.
