“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” (Jeremiah 32:27)

Our God is the God who parted the Red Sea so that the children of Israel could walk through on dry ground.

Our God is the God who shut the mouths of the lions and spared Daniel’s life.

Our God is the God who breathed life into a valley of dry bones.

Our God is the God who fed five thousand people with five loaves of bread and two fish.

Our God is the God who raised Lazarus from the dead.

Our God is the God who has assured us that we will have victory over Satan.

Our God is the God who fights our battles.

Is there anything too hard for God? Absolutely not! Whatever the circumstances, problems or challenges, God is still God and He is able to do for you what He’s done for others. Our God is not a respector of persons. Rest assured that you are not forgotten; God has not abandoned you. And there is absolutely nothing too hard for Him to handle. He will deliver you.

Autumn marks the transition from summer to winter and is one of the four temperate seasons. Many of us can relate to this season as it is so invigorating, yet can be so unpredictable. Autumn is one of the most important seasons of all in many cultures. While it is called a temperate season, one that is moderate in temperature it was originally named the season of harvest, now the alternative word is fall or autumn.

While this new season begins many women begin to prepare their homes for the winter months, storing fruits, vegetables and grains for the household.  It is truly a time of preparation for the cold months ahead. This morning as I take into account all that I must do in order to prepare, one thing I am must remember and that is to prepare for the Lord’s harvest.

John 4: 34-38  Jesus said to them “My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work. Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, then comes the harvest’? Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see that the fields are white for harvest. Already the one who reaps is receiving wages and gathering fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. For here the saying holds true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”

Whether you are gleaning from your garden that is left from the summer months, or purchasing produce to put up for the winter. Or maybe you are making a list of items that are needed to purchase should there be extreme weather changes in your area. One thing to remember and that is spending time in prayer, and taking into account the joy of your harvest. Welcome the coolness of this season with a heart yearning too share the good news of Christ to all people. Lord, help me to set time aside daily to pray for the harvest.

Matthew 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

 Jeremiah 33:6 “Behold, I will bring you health and cure, and I will cure you, and will reveal unto you the abundance of peace and truth.”

Health and wellness is mine today, I must declare His promises…

I am so thankful for the prayer spa ministry as we get share our prayer requests, praise reports and just begin to thank the Lord for His healing with so many Christian soldiers…

Today I want to declare the Lord is mighty indeed! When things around me don’t make sense I must declare His promises and remain steadfast in Him, because He has set us apart for His purpose and His plan. He will see us through it all, even when the storms come crashing in the only thing left is a heart that will worship Him in Spirit and in Truth.

So today may I declare His promises of His mighty work…

• He is mighty to save. (Psalm 34:19)
• He is mighty to deliver. (Psalm 34:19)
• He is mighty to set free. (2 Corinthians 3:17)
• He is mighty to sanctify. (1 Thessalonians 5:23)
• He is mighty to spring forth His provision. (Psalm 111:5)
• He is mighty to bring peace in the storm. (Nahum 1:7,9b)
• He is mighty to preserve us (Psalm 121:7-8)
• He is mighty to bring complete healing. (Psalm 103:2-3)
• He is mighty to be help us overcome and not be weary. (Revelation 12:1)
• He is mighty to shield us from all heartache and pain. (Psalm 147:3)
• He is mighty to bring peace in the midst of fear. (Isaiah 41:10)

The Lord strong and mighty is He! He is faithful and true.

Today I must declare that He is Lord and truly His promises are medicine to bring health and wellness, no matter what it looks like, the Lord is mighty to move on behalf of His children.

May you find peace in the midst of any storm in life.

God is there! He cares and He loves you!  

The Lord says, “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” (Isaiah 43:1)

Do you sometimes feel small or insignificant? You don’t have to. As long as you belong to God, rest in the knowledge that He knows everything about you, including your name. You are so special to Him that the Bible says He knows the number of hairs on your head.

So, the next time you’re having one of those days where you’re feeling unimportant and that your life no longer matters, don’t give in to despair. You are a one-of-a-kind created by the Creator of the Universe. He has placed in you gifts and talents that only you are equipped to share with the world in your unique way. Jesus died so that you would be able to live. Don’t ever think about leaving this place until the Lord calls you home. You’ve got work to do.

Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer. (Romans 12:12)

As I was praying this past week for all the prayer requests we’ve received, I wished that I could speak to each person individually and let them know that no matter what is happening in their life today, God is still able. Sometimes it is so hard to keep hoping and believing that your deliverance will come. But Jesus said that He came that you may have an abundant life.  He will carry you through your storms, if you just continue to trust in Him.

One of the enemy’s favorite weapons is hopelessness. He wants you to give up because he knows that when you lose hope you will die spiritually. The Devil is a liar! Refuse to give in to him. When you’re really going through, rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer. You can have hope because Jesus lives. You can have hope because your God never forsakes the righteous. You can have hope because you have an eternal promise. Never give up or give in to the enemy. Rejoice because your victory will come!

I must remind myself daily to not spend idle time on the internet, in the stores, on the job or even at my home, but I must find time and spend it sitting in the Presence of Almighty God.

Times of refreshing is what I need most this week and I am sure that it is only found in one place and that is the secret place spent in my prayer closet. I must get on my face before the Lord this week and seek Him. It is a must for me so that I might be able to refresh others as well. Times of refreshing is what I need most…

Scripture I hope to embrace this week so that others might be refreshed…

Proverbs 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; The righteous runs into it and is safe.

Nehemiah 8:10 “The Joy of the Lord is my strength”

Psalm 33:20 20 We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.

Proverbs 11:25 A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.
