THE ALMIGHTY!

THE ALMIGHTY!

Continuing on with Psalms 91:1; Remember I shared ‘to-dwell’ in Hebrew is to settle down to a place, to inhabit (from Psalms 91:1a).
In Ps. 91:1b the psalmist writes the words: ‘shall abide’ as he is continuing on with this assumption of when we dwell we shall abide.
Yet, abide also means staying there, to remain stable or fixed in a state. John 15:5 Jesus encourages us to abide in Him, and in result we would produce much fruit in our lives.
We’re too busy in this world, that’s why another definition to abide is to endure. Because in our self we want to do things in our way and in our time. But when we do, we scathe away from His wings, and we’re not connected to the vine as Jesus said.
—- HE’S MORE THAN A SHELTER!
It says to Abide Under the Shadow Ps. 91:1b
Shadow is defined as a defense, a hovering over. God sinks or submerges as in Him. He is more than a shelter, He is our Hiding Place. Under- means staying under the shelter, & under the Blood where there is safety from the evil and attacks of our enemy.
Where? And Who? THE ALMIGHTY! Defined as powerful, impregnable, to be strong, and also efficient. He is El Shaddai!
The Hebrew word Shin (for Almighty) means victory over evil, He is the consuming fire over all His enemies.
HE IS OUR ALMIGHTY GOD! Who pulls us to Him and covers us as we dwell and remain in His presence.

FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS FOR CHURCHES

7 FATHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS FOR CHURCHES Out of desperation creativity is birthed. I hope to add on to this post through the years. Churches love to give to dad's on Father's Day; sometimes this can be redundant and or expensive. A few short years ago we stepped out of the Evangelistic & Pioneer work to take a small church that is just great and out of the box. So, of course budget is minimal and I am 'it' when it comes to holiday decor and gifting ideas & doing them. The 4 gifts that my family and I put together are as follows:                       POPCORN/CANDY/MOVIE  We placed microwave popcorn, candy bar and a special Father's Day poem inside a popcorn bag.  FRAMED ART FROM LOCAL ARTIST/MINISTER  (Rev. Paul Gray)  MADE THIS INTO A FRAME & ADDED A PEN.                                             MINI GIFTS WRAPPED IN A HANKIE Pocket knife, Voice of the Martyrs Pendant  & candy! Al

LET US TRUST THE PROCESS OF PRUNING

Did you ever read this verse in John 15:2 and think, "that's extreme, can't we just hold onto these extra branches that grew once and bore amazing, fruit?" I have definitely !   Then life happens! In that life, we make a decision to dig deeper in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Yet, as we do, we face obstacles (or that's what we called them) that challenged us to trust Jesus to do what He wills in our lives.  I believe this place is a milestone in the timeline of our lives. Will we continue to walk ever so close to the Lord, realizing as we do, He will prune us? Will we desire to be producers of His fruit and life flow through us? Many of us realize that this means more obstacles, cuts, bleeding, times of dormancy and simple hurt.  This is when the milestone comes; will we accept this pruning and be fruitful or just become branches that become brittle, and ragged?  A lot of questions to ponder, but I feel God wants to use each and everyone of His children in o

Thank You For Asking

(c)Daneille Gray Snowden 2022 Today, I was deeply touched in my heart when a dear friend asked how my husband was. I did not mention it first, out of the blue; she asked about something dear to my heart. This wasn't the first time as she has  asked about different matters in my life several times. May I tell you how that made me feel? It made me feel cared for, loved and set back how someone cares intensely about me and my life. How often do you personally experience such care and interest from others? And, as I ask myself this too; how often do we reach out and ask others how they are? When people as a whole reach out in such a way, we see the creation power of God as hearts are connected to one another and a strong foundation is beginning to be built for a lasting relationship.  I love it when I hear conversations in church  or in my home when I  listen to their questions of wanting to learn of others situations, experiences, needs and even joys. The questioner is totally focused
