What happens if I am spiritually cripple? Exciting, enthusiastic devotional!




 "Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have, I give you. In the Name of Jesus Christ, rise up and walk" - Acts 3:6 

In the spirit realm, what do we have to give apart from silver and gold? We have to give our love, demonstrated by power. Our power is propelled by love. Some of us are either lame in the spiritual realm, or keep stumbling at obstacles. How can we prevent this?
First, we must acknowledge fully Jesus can save us if we follow Him 
Second, we must trust that He knows what He is doing, and whatever He has, He will give you. He always has blessings with Him. Some of us just need to rise to the calling. Jesus has His hand out ready to help us up. But it is our choice. Will we have full, no-doubting faith, in Him and take that helping Hand? But, before you do, you may want to be filled in on the facts. 

Jesus Christ provides us with forgiveness and eternal life. He covers our sins with His love. If we follow Him, we will have temptations, but they will be for our own good. Now I want to talk about what shows our faith. I tell you this, it is our good deeds. "What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." - James 4:14-17. This powerful. If our faith shows no action, no hunger for Jesus, we lie. And lying is a sin. So you sin by not showing true hunger for Christ. Accompany actions with faith and God will work in your life. Good deeds make us go forward in life. If we are the image of Jesus and his examples, we must do mix faith with actions. Jesus wants to help our hurt or crippled spiritual selves. But He has given us free will. Will you take His hand or stay a cripple in a world of sin? 

Thanks, from #dbverses2016

Humble Is Best!

Direct my footsteps according to your Word; let no sin rule over me. Psalm 119:133  |  NIV   We need to let God's Word rule our lives, directing our footsteps on our journey through life. God is our Director leading us-even of the path LOOKS right, it doesn't mean it IS right. God knows best so we shouldn't be no-it-alls. Humble your self! 

What makes faith work? Learn MORE about faith in this devotional...

"That according to the riches of His glory, He may grant you to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith..." - Ephesians 3:16-17 KJV Okay. I wanted to talk a little bit more on faith. When Paul writes 'dwell in your hearts through faith' what does it mean? This means that we have to show our confidence and belief in Christ, before He comes into our hearts. He knows when we want to trick Him or not. So don't bother being cunning! Because wisdom comes from the Lord! So, if our human efforts cannot make faith to work, what can? (Zechariah 4:6) Our confidence and belief in Jesus! We just have to say, "Jesus, take care of this for me. I don't want to any more. I can't do it by my own power." Acknowledging that you can't do it alone, gives you the first step forward. Then comes the hard bit. When I mean hard, I mean HARD. Because most people people fall away aft...

Before you ask this question you must ask yourself, am I pure? Have I sinned by mistake and need forgiveness? Or are my thoughts starting to make my light darken? Ask yourself these questions and their surely will be an answer.  But why must I ask myself these questions?  " So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart" - 2 Timothy 2:22    If we are not thinking good thoughts or have sinned by mistake or not, we have sta...
