I think it is time

Jeremiah 17:7-8 (NKJV) 7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. 8 For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear[a] when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit.
This was my verse of the day and I thought it hit the nail right on the head so to speak. The sad part about it is that the ones that need to realize it the most will not read it today. We really are like a tree planted by the water.
We do have green leaves and we shall not fear. As I read this another scripture came to mind. It is and it is not the one that most would think of. Most would think of John 14:13-14 (NKJV) 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.
If you notice verse 13 starts with a conjunction that means it is used as a function word to indicate connection or addition especially of items within the same class or type ; used to join sentence elements of the same grammatical rank or function, or putting it simpler there is something to do before verses 13 and 14. So let us look back at John 14:11-12 (NIV) 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
Whoever believes IN ME not about me or of me or thinks of me… IN ME do you really believe IN JESUS? Do you really honestly and truly believe that Jesus died on a cross at Calvary and He died on that cross for YOU? Do you really believe that, I believe there is a large amount of people who are guilty of LIP SERVICE. They are afraid to give it all to Jesus and let it be nailed to the CROSS with Jesus.
Let us read on to the next statement here and add your name to it… if you [add your name] believe in Him then you [add your name] will do the works He has been doing. The point is we are Children of the same God Jesus is the son of. We are supposed to be doing the same things He did. It is time for us to start believing as in Jeremiah 46:5 (NIV) What do I see? They are terrified, they are retreating, their warriors are defeated. They flee in haste without looking back, and there is terror on every side,” declares the Lord. This is a story of the Israelites defeating their enemy. The same God the same story the same truth.
Our enemy should be on the run, why isn’t he on the run? Why is he standing against you why? He does not see God. I think he sees a person that is not sure what they believe and is not sure that God will defend them nor are they sure they have the power to RUN HIM OFF. I think it is time that you start reading the Bible and believing it… It is time that you start doing greater things it is time that you accept who you are in CHRIST JESUS. It is time that you start being who you are! It is time that you start believing in what Jesus did for you!
It is now your choice. Believe in Jesus or believe in satan your enemy, DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE IN JESUS?
Memory Verse for March 21, 2015
1 John 4:4 (NIV) You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.
May God be with you and watch over you. And America it is time for us to BLESS GOD again…
1 Corinthians 9:19 [NKJV] For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win the more;

I don’t believe people realize who they are in Christ. And the Word says My people perish for a lack of knowledge. Some people are settled and want to stay in their comfort zone. They don’t want to get their hands dirty. We need to know who we are in Christ and read the word. So many are defeated because they don’t realize Jesus gave all of us authority over all the power of the enemy!! He has been striped of all his powers!!~ You got faith use it!!~~ And stop being afraid!!~ There really is nothing to fear if you know all these things!!~ All this whining and O poor pitiful me need to stand and be responsible for their selves!!~Stop bickering we are not here for all that!! And move on into what God has called us to do!! I refuse to let fear rule my life. whatever you fear you will be a slave to it!! And I refuse to let my heart be troubled, and that’s just what it will be if we are fearful. And fear will destroy your life if you let it!!~ The devil cannot do anything to you unless you let him!! That’s my story and I”m sticking to it!! In the ALL MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS Christ and savior AMEN!!!!
Correct Gina… We have quote unquote Christians that are still on milk and it is time to get on solid food and grow up.
I wonder if some are even saved or know what. ieven means
Well I think a lot think that praying a prayer is it then they can go back doing what they were doing. Born Again means a lot more than saying a prayer it is LIFE CHANGING..
