My Redeemer Lives

I know my Redeemer lives.

Jesus is the Great Redeemer. "And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption..." 1 Corinthians 1:30a.

I know that beyond a shadow of a doubt. It doesn't matter whether or not anyone understands that. That's part of the problem, isn't it? Just about everybody wants to understand every single thing that happens or doesn't happen. News flash: you won't understand everything. We're not God. We didn't create the world. We have no idea why things happen and why they don't. And we have to be ok with that. Life will be so much better to relieve ourselves of such a responsibility and accept that fact. If not, such a mindset will lead to a life of misery, because we won't have the ability to figure certain things out.

That's why we have One God, One Jesus. That's why it's ok to boast in Him. It's allowed. "...so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:30b)

If we will just let go and let God, we will be more at peace with not trying to know everything. All we have to know is that our Redeemer lives yesterday, today, and tomorrow. And if our Redeemer lives and He lives in us, that means he will redeem us whenever we need Him to.
That's so awesome.

God blesses whomever he wants to bless, whenever he wants to bless them

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Protecting My Peace - Day 98 - Momentum and Movement, That’s What's Up

Click to listen to current podcast episode. “Never Giving Up” are power-words — strong affirmations that give us momentum and movement. That’s what’s up. We can do so much more in our lives when we have momentum and movement. It’s about standing, literally and not sitting or laying around feeling sorry for ourselves. I used to do that once upon a time and that sorrowful thinking is for the birds. We don’t have to be down. We can get up and get going even if we start small. In fact, I love starting small, because it helps set a firm foundation of habits and routines. Momentum and movement will help us get and maintain a position of strength to do what God says we can do.

Speak things as if they were

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. Do you know you have the power to speak things into existence? Do you know you have the power to change your atmosphere? Oh yes, so speak life to your life and know that the Lord's Word never comes back void. It is always alive and active. It's never too late to start speaking over your life. In Mark 11 :24 Jesus says, "therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours" and Proverbs 23 :7 says, "for as a man thinks in his heart, so is he." Those verses are proof that when something lives in our heart, all we have to do is open our mouths and speak those things as if we already had them. It's amazing how much power we really have, but we throw it away, because of our lack of faith. I've done that for years and let me tell you, it's not happening anymore. I'm not giving no thing, no one, and no place another inch of m
