“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. - Philippians 4:6 (ESV) __________________________________________________ #verseoftheday #votd #holybible #bibleverse #dailyverse #scriptureoftheday #godisgreat #godisgood #godislove #godlovesyou #godisgoodallthetime #godisfaithful #jesuschrist #holyspirit #jesussaves #jesuslovesyou #jesusislord #jesusislove #jesusisking #jesusislife

In these troubled times may we recall God’s Word delivers hope for renewal. The Bible says “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33 "Everyone born of God overcomes the world...by Faith." 1 John 5:4 "Those who HOPE in the LORD will renew their strength..." Isaiah 40:31. Praying that we place our hope in the Lord to have our strength renewed and that our nation will be led by faith to have our spirit as one nation under God restored. -

gave us the . “In everything, treat others as you would want them to treat you, for this fulfills the law and the prophets." Matthew 7:12. In any role imagine ourself in the other person's position & do for them what we would want them to do for us. Where respect give it, where recognition provide it, if fairness deliver it. View it & do it from others' perspective. Today’s word from THE Word

"In everything, treat others as you would want them to treat you, for this fulfills the law and the prophets." Matthew 7:12. Jesus reveals the Golden Rule. In any role imagine ourself in the other person's position & do for them what we would want them to do for us. Where respect give it, where recognition provide it, if fairness deliver it. View it & do it from others' perspective.

. At this time of suffering in the world, we praise God for Jesus' suffering for the world. "For He is a man of suffering, and familiar with pain..." [Isaiah 53:3], Yet, the suffering of Jesus had purpose for us even as we esteemed Him not and deemed Him "stricken by God" [Isaiah 53:3]. "He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities: the punishment which brought us peace was upon him; and by His wounds, we are healed." [Isaiah 53:5]. Believing on the Lord Jesus, our deliverer and light of life @ Easter.

"This is the kind of wall - commemorating our nation's veterans, which unites our country. The names listed here represent our fellow Americans who swore an oath to the Constitution and died in its defense. We recognize all our veterans whose mission has been and will always be to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and all the people whose rights and freedoms are guaranteed thereby." - LarryCrim, President God Bless America.

“Faith is the SUBSTANCE!”

"Faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see." 11:1 NIV. Faith confirms to the human mind the reality of things our bodily senses cannot see. That is why the says " is the... " (Heb. 11:1 KGV). Faith is the evidence the mind needs to achieve things for which we hope.

Praise God! Holy let your love seize us!
