The Lord Has A Plan

Jeremiah 29:11

Amplified Bible (AMP)
For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give you hope in your final outcome.Then you will call upon Me, and you will come and pray to Me, and I will hear and heed you.
As we crossed over from 2013 to 2014, the Lord is right here with us. The Lord knows the thoughts and plans he has for each one of us. He wants the very best for us and that can only come from the One who created us. Ephesians 2:10 states that "we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." It has been God's plan before the foundations of the earth to give us hope. Not a hope that is seen but a hope that is unseen.
God is our Creator and we are his children. The goal is for us to call upon him and come and pray to him. He wants us to know him as our provider, not in some things but all things. Every good and perfect gift comes from the Lord. 
We should seek God with a teachable spirit, ready to hear and obey, and ready to be changed into the New nature. And this means that we stop clinging to the old ways but step into the newness that a new year will bring. Embrace it with faith in knowing that our Lord and Savior is fully attentive to you and I. He cares about everything that concerns us. He knows each one of us completely. What an awesome God! What a loving Father!
So as we go through 2014, seek the face of God with an open mind and be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Be determined to trust God more this year. Ask for more grace to do so.
Happy New Year! and God Bless!

In God's Hands & His Service,
Mary
Servant of the Most High God

The Power of Forgiveness

The Power of Forgiveness By Mary J. Bryant I was reading this article by Dr. Randy Kamen Gredinger entitled The Power of Forgiveness. In his articles, he stated that Forgiveness transforms anger and hurt into healing and peace. Forgiveness can help you overcome feelings of depression, anxiety, and rage, as well as personal and relational conflicts.” I agree with this 100%. When I received the revelation from the Holy Spirit concerning my unforgiveness, it totally changed my life.  It did not occur to me that I had unforgiveness in my heart. All I knew was that I was hurting, angry, disappointed, frustrated and depressed.  The weight of these emotional burdens I was carrying around was slowly putting me in bondage. I was being eaten up by this very dark whole. I wanted desperately to escape. Therefore, when I got that revelation about forgiveness, I paid close attention to my Teacher, the Holy Spirit. He began dealing with me on those moments when hurt came in from those I w

The Snares of the Devil

My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only he will release my feet from the snare. ~Psalm 25:15 First Peter 5:8-9 lets us know that the devil walks about like a roaring lion,seeking whom he may devour. Jesus said it like this "the enemy comes but to steal, kill, and destroy". Satan has been a murderer from the beginning(John 8:44). He was the first to prefer  choice  rather than  life  and just like in the Garden he is still preaching the same message today. The devil is trying to get any and every one in his snare (net). He is trying to take captive as many as he can by his devices, and wiles.  The Bible teaches us that the devil, as he works his deception against us, personifies wiles. He is the master of wiles. He lies to us and waits to trap us, discourage us and snare us. Know that he will do anything he needs to do to weaken us and destroy us. It is his daily occupation to produce discouragement, confusion, indifference, imbalance, division and hatred among us. He
