God's Voice

Greetings everyone! Praise the Lord!

It's been a while since my last posting. I want to do something different this time. Let's start a discussion. I've been reading my friends' blogs for a while. One thing they have in common, they love Jesus and they can hear His voice. You know who you are *wink*

My question is how do you know it's Him? How can you tell His voice? Did you hear an audible voice? How does God communicate with you? How do you know what He is saying?

My thank you in advance to everyone who responds to my questions. God bless you.

My Tribute

music and lyrics by Andrae Crouch



How can I say thanks
For the things that You've done for me
Things so undeserved
Yet you give to prove Your love for me
The voices of a million angels
Could not express my gratitude
All that I am and ever hope to be
I owe it all to Thee



To God be the glory
To God be the glory
To God be the glory
For the things He has done
With His blood, He has saved me
With His power, He has raised me
To God be the glory
For the things He has done



Just let me live my life
Let it be pleasing, Lord, to Thee
And should I gain any praise
let it go to Calvary

With His blood, He has saved me
With His power, He has raised me
To God be the glory
For the things He has done

God is the same, yesterday, today, and forever.

Do you know that God is the same yesterday, today, and forever? Do you know that He is still the same God no matter what? Do you know that He never changes? We change. People always change, but God will stay the same. A loving and forgiving God He is.

Remember the time when you were praising God for all that He had done for you? Are you still praising Him today when life is not so good? Do you still remember His goodness and His loving kindness toward you? Know that He is still the same God. He is He who blessed you before and He will keep blessing you. It might not look like a blessing to you, but it is indeed. You may not think of it as a blessing right now. But you will when you get through the situation. You will when you finally can look back and see how the situation has shaped you so. It will when you know how you have become so much stronger because of it.

Do you feel that God is abandoning you? Think carefully, is it you or is it Him who moved? Do you feel that you are not as close as you were before to Him? Why do you think is that? Think hard, is it your fault or is it His fault?

God is love and His love toward us is unbelievably amazing. He does not give only a little of what He has, but He gives you All He has. He wept when you were sad. He was there with you through everything, through your pain, through your laughter, through your happiness, through your troubles and tribulations. He is there ALL THE TIME. God is love and He loves all of us, His children. I don't know why we deserve Him, but I am glad that He is who He is.

"He gave His child, what more could He give? Oh how He loves you and me."

Behave Like a Christian

Romans 12:9-21



Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.

Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;

Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer, distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.

Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.

Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

Repay no evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.

Therefore,
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

All I Have..

lyrics and music by V. Michael McKay



All I have
All I have
I give to You,
my King

Not because I must,
But because I TRUST,
in You for EVERYTHING

What if God is unhappy with our praise?

What if God is unhappy with our praise
What if He is not pleased with the words we say
What if He takes away His love
And His spirit from above
What if God is unhappy with our praise?

What if God is unhappy with the way we live
What if He is not pleased with the way we give
What if He takes away His love
And His spirit from above
What if God is unhappy with the way we live?

We must change the way we walk
We must change the way we talk
We must live the life that's pleasing to our king
We must read God's Holy Word
And let His praises be heard
Lord just be pleased with our praise



Lord, please be pleased with my praise
