You Are My Everything

You Are My Everything



You, Lord, are all I have, and you give me all I need; my future is in your hands Psalm 16:5


When God is our portion, we are content and know what it means to have enough. For we are nothing without Jesus, and without Him we can do nothing. The value we have is found in Him, and we can celebrate who we are only because of Him. We must know that we are everything in Jesus and nothing in ourselves. In Him and through Him we are valued and can-do great things. We are not limited when we surrender all to Jesus, because He knows our end from the beginning and beginning from the end. Our future is secured in Him. As a good earthly father wants the best for their children, so does our heavenly father wants the best for us. So, lets trust Him and involve Him in everything we do and get excited about Jesus today!

God Requires Total Commitment

  God Requires Total Commitment Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you.  James 4:7 This year has been challenging for many of us, as social injustices, political unrest, and economic issues have affected our commitment to God. When we think about the word commitment, we think of having a made up mind, despite the circumstances. The enemy’s desire is to distract us from total commitment to God by making our problems look bigger than they are.  Therefore, we make excuses as to why we can’t commit to him resulting in us slowly drifting away from His presence, not spending time with him through praying and studying his word.  James warns us to submit to God and resist the devil. Satan wants us to believe we can't afford to  study our bibles or come to church because we are too busy working to pay our bills and take care of our families. Our jobs, relationships and worldly affections have gotten us off

From Fear To Faith

But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers. ”  Luke 22:32 NASB Jesus knew Peter would need to hold fast to the Word of God, rather than what his eyes could see, because the trials Peter would be facing would surely be a time of severe testing. Jesus wanted Peter to strengthen his faith and determination. Peter needed to hold fast and be solid in faith. So Jesus, the Son of God, prayed specifically that Peter's faith would not fail. When we show that our faith does not waver, it encourages others to believe what they know, rather than what they see. This was the case with Peter. Peter was converted and his way of seeing tribulation fell in line with God's purpose. He would be able to lead others to that same conversion from fear to faith. We must understand that we are children of God and servants of the Lord Jesus. This is the faith to which we are called. Jesus intercedes for us that we may be able to

Don't Get Distracted

Look straight ahead and fix your eyes in what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil. Proverbs 4:25-27 NLT The devil is constantly busy, always working on distracting us from focusing on Jesus and the path He has set before us. There are a lot of distractions today, such as your career, social media, friends, politics, the economy, and family matters, amongst others. While these distractions are genuine and valid, the devil can still use them to shift our attention, so that we barely have time to focus on the Lord. The enemy keeps our attention on our problems and everything else happening around us. In this way we lose focus on Jesus, the maker of all things and the only one that can turn every bad situation around. As the book Proverbs advises, look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you, as what lies ahead can be your dreams and aspirations, gifts, talent, or the mi
