Timely Tidbits of Truth 78

Timely Tidbits of Truth 78
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
 
My KINGDOM is with you!

Where I am you will be. Together. Forever. In My Father’s house. You will be a part of My inheritance. You will be at My marriage supper. You will reign with Me. See My glory. Look upon My face. You will know Me even as I know you. All will be made new. Oh, the joys that will be yours, the wonders you will see that have not yet been revealed.

Your Kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does (Psalm 145:13 NIV).

Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe (Hebrews 12:28 NLT).

Ten Certainties for Uncertain Times, Part 5

Ten Certainties for Uncertain Times, Part 5
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow


You belong to a Kingdom that cannot be shaken.

We are living in a world that is shakeable. Every system or power that has man as its source will eventually fail. Throughout history, kings have been overthrown, leaders have fallen from power, kingdoms have been conquered, armies have been defeated, riches have been depleted, and fortresses have toppled over. There is no secure place around us where the insecure can find a haven. It is only in the Kingdom of God that anyone can find true rest and security. No rebellion can break down its gates, no weapon can penetrate its borders, and no warrior can come against its King. 
 
Everything about the Kingdom of God is solid, sure, and steady. It is reliable, dependable, and impenetrable. The Kingdom of God is eternal. It is the only Kingdom that will remain. The way of the Kingdom is where your feet can walk; the truth of the Kingdom is what your faith can embrace; the love of the Kingdom is what your heart can give away. 

Be careful that you do not refuse to listen to the One who is speaking. For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, we will certainly not escape if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven! When God spoke from Mount Sinai his voice shook the earth, but now he makes another promise: “Once again I will shake not only the earth but the heavens also. ”This means that all of creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things will remain.

Since we are receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God by worshiping him with holy fear and awe. For our God is a devouring fire (Hebrews 12:25-29 NLT).

My Morning Prayer: The Future

My Morning Prayer: The Future
-Roy Lessin and Marina Bromley

The Future
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
 
Now all glory to God, who is able, through His mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to Him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen (Ephesians 3:20–21 NLT).
 
Jesus is your future.
 
He has called you to follow Him with a heart of faith and a life of obedience. In good times, in troubled times, or in uncertain times, all your times are in His hands. Your future is filled with God’s promises. It is a future as hopeful as the faithfulness of God; as secure as the character of God; as abounding as the grace of God; as abundant as the love of God.




My Morning Prayer
-Marina Bromley

Dear Jesus, thank you for being in my past, for having a place in my today, and for holding all of my tomorrows. My daily prayers for my immediate needs seem so meaningless because I only know what my needs and wants are for today, yet you hold my future and know what my needs will be in each and every tomorrow. Lord God, please prepare me to walk with you in whatever tomorrow holds. Provide for me in any area of my life that is lacking—physically, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, and financially. Help me to remember your place in my life as Lord and Savior, as Shepherd and King. I want to serve you, honor you, trust you, and abide in you. May your will be done in my life, today and forever. I choose to trust you. In Jesus's name, amen.

Timely Tidbits of Truth 77

Timely Tidbits of Truth 77
-Roy Lessin

 
My GUIDANCE is with you!

I am your Good Shepherd. Great Shepherd. Chief Shepherd. I will direct your steps. I will lead you, not drive you. I will Shield you. Shelter you. Defend you.

My steps will always take you in the right direction. I will keep you from confusion. I am with you to fulfill the deepest desires My Father has placed within your heart.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Psalm 23 KJV

Ten Certainties for Uncertain Times, Part 4

Ten Certainties for Uncertain Times, Part 4
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

God’s Word cannot be broken.

All Scripture is God’s written Word. It is 100% reliable because God is 100% infallible. Every word in the Scriptures is God-breathed. Every promise that is spoken has come from God’s heart, and every truth that is proclaimed is a revelation of God’s will. Every prophecy that is recorded in the Scriptures has been fulfilled or will be fulfilled, not generally, but exactly as it is written, down to the smallest detail. The Scriptures have endured the test of time—men have tried to destroy them, but they still remain; men have tried to dispute them, but they have had the final say in every argument; men have tried to refute them, but they stand over each man’s grave as a living testimony to all that is true, righteous, and eternal. 
 
Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear (Matthew 24:35 NLT).
 
“Don’t suppose for a minute that I have come to demolish the Scriptures—either God’s Law or the Prophets. I’m not here to demolish but to complete. I am going to put it all together, pull it all together in a vast panorama. God’s Law is more real and lasting than the stars in the sky and the ground at your feet. Long after stars burn out and earth wears out, God’s Law will be alive and working (Matthew 5:18 MSG).

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16 KJV).
 
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path (Psalm 119:105 KJV).
 
Thy word is very pure: therefore Thy servant loveth it (Psalm 119:140 KJV).
