I Know The Plans That I Have For You, Declares The LORD. They Are Plans For Peace And Not Disaster, Plans To Give You A Future Filled With Hope! (Jeremiah 29:11) The LORD is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in Him! (Nahum 1:7) The LORD directs the steps of the godly.

(Psalm 118:8) In order for us to walk in the supernatural blessings of God, we have to determine it's going to be God's way or no way at all. God’s way is always the way of faith, because without faith it is impossible to please Him. (Hebrews 11:6) There are times our solutions will be the easy way out or there will be a quick or temporary fix. To walk according to God’s Word is not always quick and easy, however it is always the way that gets lasting results. Our commitment to God is a choice. In order to walk in total commitment to Christ, the door...

No Matter What! "God Has Said, "I Will Never Leave You Or Abandon You !" (Hebrews 13:5) "Aren't five sparrows sold for two cents? God doesn't forget any of them.

(Philippians 4:13) God will not only finish what He started in you, but God will give you the ability to have peace, finish strong and make you strong in the process! For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome. (Jeremiah 29:11) God Has A Plan For You ! Don’t allow a person (Satan), place or thing keep you from God‘s plan for you. Many I come in contact with from day to day cannot embrace the goodness God has for their future, because they cannot get beyond the guilt, shame and failure of their past, but Satan is a liar. God’s plan for us is bigger than our greatest failure! God’s plan is to increase and multiply us in everything good. T his means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! (2 Corinthians 5:17) It is good and righ...
