8/23 Joshua 1:9
“This is my command — be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
ALWAYS
The Lord Jesus is always with you. You are never alone. He will not abandon you. You belong to Him. Turn to Jesus. Let Him connect with you and take control of your life.
8/22 Deuteronomy 31:6
“So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
LIFE
Life at its best is difficult. On many occasions it is very hard. Note, when you ask Jesus to save and believe in your heart that HE is God and HE has saved you, Jesus will always be with you. He helps us, guides us, equips us, nurtures us and is always able to take us to the next level in our relationship with the Lord. Jesus is Lord. He is with us. He has won the victory in the spiritual realm and is coming back for us one day. Jesus is Lord.
8/21 2 KINGS 23:3
3 The king took his place of authority beside the pillar and renewed the covenant in the LORD ’s presence. He pledged to obey the LORD by keeping all his commands, laws, and decrees with all his heart and soul. In this way, he confirmed all the terms of the covenant that were written in the scroll, and all the people pledged themselves to the covenant.

God IS with you
8/20 Psalm 121:4
4 Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps.
NEED
We have a friend in God. He is a friend in need. He is a friend in plenty. Turn to the Lord. He is your friend.
8/19 James 4:8
8 Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.
GOD
God is seeking you. He is interested in having a personal relationship with you. Turn to Jesus and place your faith in Him. He will give you new life.
8/18 Acts 3:19-20
19 Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away.
20 Then times of refreshment will come from the presence of the Lord, and he will again send you Jesus, your appointed Messiah.
PERSONAL
Every tub must sit on its own bottom. Sin is personal. All of us sin. After Adam, every person ever born except Jesus is a sinner. You need help because you cannot pay the price to forgive your sin. Jesus offers a free gift: forgiveness of your sin. Ask Christ to forgive you today and place your faith and trust in Him.
8/17 John 3:16-17
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. 17 God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.
YOU
God is giving you the choice of His free gift of life in Christ Jesus. Jesus died to save us and you from our sin. He offers you the chance to choose this free gift of life by accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You choose.
8/16 Matthew 6:33
33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
GODGod is intimately involved in our lives, in our needs, in who we are and what we are called to do. He is with us. He is helping us, guiding us and involved in everything in our life. Seek Him and He will organize the hours and days of our lives.
8/15 Ezra 9:9
9 Though we are slaves, our God has not forsaken us in our bondage. He has shown us kindness in the sight of the kings of Persia: He has granted us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins, and he has given us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem.
CARES
God cares for you. He cares for each one of us. We are great sinners. Jesus is the One who paid the price for our sin. He LOVES each one of us as if we were the only one. God cares for you.
8/14 Habakkuk 3:2
I have heard all about you, LORD . I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger, remember your mercy.
MERCY
Lord, I need mercy. Help me. I am overwhelmed by YOUR interest in my life. Thank you Lord.
