God be with Us

[prince+angel 3]

May His name be exhaulted forever!

I often struggle with fear, and certainly a lot of unnecessary worry. When these moments enter my head, I have to remember that God did not give us a spirit of fear, but one of a sound mind. What is fear?

False

Evidence

Appearing

Real

I am reminded of one of many Scritpures that address the subject. Joshua 1:9.....Do not fear nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Amen ... Prayer & Faith are powerful tools for your daily walk & just as powerful weapons for what may seem like insurmountable battles.

So easy to lose sight of this, thanks Amanda for starting this thread.. i hope to make the time not just find the time to visit it often.

Absolutely....I feel that we should bring more awareness to Him...lift Him high & praise His name...thank Him daily for all He has done for us, for dying for us on the cross and saving us from our sin. Praise His holy name!!

Hi all, lately, I've been trying to put my RFE outcome into his hands, but I cant let go of it, and wait for Our Lord to give me his answer. I oftern read that pray Nagishkaw posted not too long ago, reading it brings me peace, and its so true and soothing. I often why this journey, why did my husband and I meet, if we can not be together, I only wish I knew what the Lord had in store for us. But questioning him is wrong, I need to just believe in what he has in store for us.

Im sorry for my rambling, this RFE has made me a wreck.

Paris...questioning our Lord is right! That is exactly what He wants us to do! You would question your husband, family members, friends, yes? And why? Because you trust them. You know you have a close relationship with them and they would never steer you in the wrong direction on purpose. He wants a relationship with his children, not just us going through the motions, repeating the same worn out ritualistic prayers. He even goes so far as to say, Test Me!

We may never know why we have to go through these horrible times. Perhaps it is to test our faith, or to make us stronger only through His power, or maybe one day you can help others because of what you suffered and give hope through your testimony. Maybe it is that He wants to take us higher in Him but first we have to go through the refining stage. Wait on Him and trust that no matter what the outcome, in the end He will get the glory. He wants to give us the desires of our hearts! Remember what the Scriptures say...If you ask your father for bread would he give you a stone?

Nagi, its strange all my education till 12th grade I attended Luthern schools, even after I left and attended public college, I still studied, and put all in his hands. For some reason this is one I cant let go of, and I truly dont understand. My husband told me I wont surrender cause its my family Im fighting for, in a way he is correct, he is my family, but I also know Jesus gave me him "my family" Im very protect of family, always was, I know I want to whisper those words to Jesus of Why?, but I cant, I do know now from you and Amanda, I Must!. Otherwise, I may never feel peace with this immigration journey.

Oh I will still fight for us as long as there is a breath in my body, but this time, fighting with Jesus next to me.

Thank you ladies, thank you.

We hope you continue to stop by every day, prince+angel ! We need each other. I have to confess that in those rare times when I operate in the Spirit, not only am I ministering to others, but really I am ministering to myself! It is a win- win situation!

Paris, it is indeed so hard to let go of what we placed at the foot of the cross. But don't beat yourself up over this,as God knows we are but mere humans. All you can do is keep trying and pray. Remember that in Him there is now no condemnation. What has helped me the most is when I catch myself taking back those things that I thought I surrendered to God, I simply say, ' Jesus, I trust in You! ' .

i was told by someone not to question God.. nagi you are right.. we are to question God for guidance... David asked the Lord what to do and he was successful wasn't he.. he was after Gods heart...be blessed

Lord help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle. May God be with each and everyone of you today and everyday!

Upon request, I am starting this thread for all those who believe in the Lord, our God, and for those who may be second-guessing their faith. Come here for words of encouragement and support, when you are feeling down and depressed and when you are happy too! We are here to help each other through this! We can make it, just don't let go of God's unchanging hand! Feel free to post scripture and encouragement and any daily prayer needs. I will be here praying for you...I promise!

Matthew 18:20

For where two or three people come together in my name, I am there with them.

Thanks Amanda for starting this thread.

Sometimes im feeling down because of whats happening in my life, there were also times before that i asked God why is it that i experienced those things but i learned that God is giving us obstacles in life so that we will be strong, that in every problem His giving us there is always a solution on it.

Everyday i pray to God that He will guide us and help us to get through any problems/obstacles that we will meet in life.GOD IS OUR LIGHT AND GUIDE

Sis. Amanda please help me pray with the health, guidance and safety of my family and me...

Thanks a lot....

PSALM 91:1-2

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High

will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the Lord "He is my refuge and my

fortress, my God in whom I trust."

ALL I can say is THANK YOU!! I needed to read this today. GOD IS GOOD and he does hear our prayers. We lose sight sometimes but he has a way of bringing us back to him. I know that sometimes I question things, but I thank GOD that whenever I have any doubt, he places beautiful people in my path to let me know I am not forgotten and to hold on and keep praying and keep pushing to do his will. This was very inspiring. Thank you guys.

I second that sister!

I in no way will take the credit...all the praise, honor & glory to God. I am a shy one and was never really able to witness to anyone or talk much about God for fear of offending someone. So for me I have to say, it took a leap of faith for me to step up and start this thread. But I do feel more blessed by doing it and it makes me feel good to help pray for other people. I know this though, there is a miracle-performing, loving, gracious God who cares about me and each one of you too watching over us. Satan can't stand to see us happy and thanking God for our happiness, so he will try to steal your joy...but don't let any negative thoughts in your mind and give him that inch to get in and take over. Whatever prayer request you have, let it be known here and please everyone pray for one another. Please continue to return and keep your head up.

Majca my prayers are with you...keep the faith and don't let go.

(((((to everyone))))))

I hope you all have a wonderful night.

[Nagishkaw 510]

I believe your words are inspired by the Holy Spirit, Amanda.

Have you not known? Have you not heard?

The Lord is the everlasting God,

the Creator of the ends of the earth.

He does not faint or grow weary;

his understanding is unsearchable.

He gives power to the faint,

and to him who has no might he increases strength.

Even youths shall faint and be weary,

and young men shall fall exhausted;

but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;

they shall mount up with wings like eagles;

they shall run and not be weary;

they shall walk and not faint.

—Isaiah 40:28-31

I know it is so hard to wait....but don't grow faint...they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strenghth...your time is coming soon.

Isn't it good to know that God never makes a mistake?
