If I perish then I perish

 Esther 4:16"......If I perish then I perish."   When Queen Esther was to save her people the Jews by going to King Xerxes she could have been killed.   Before she did this she and her prayer teams fasted and prayed for 3 days.   Do you have a mountain to face?  Be inspired to pray, fast and have others pray and fast for you then GO!!! And if you perish you perish!!   Courage and strength are ours in Christ Jesus!!! Be the person God created you to be!!! Don't compromise, THRIVE!!!

For such a time as this!

 Esther 4:14 "For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish.  And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?"

For such a time as this!!! You too are where God wants you for such a time as this!!! Be brave!!! Be courageous!!!!  Share your faith!! Be everything God has created you to be today!!! What are you waiting for?  Today is the day the Lord has made, let's rejoice and be glad in it!!  Let's live; "For such a time as this."

Be the best Christian you can be....TODAY!!!

Wise or foolish?

 Proverbs 13:20 "He who walks with the wise grows wise, but the companion of fools suffer harm."  ....14:1 "The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears it down."    Walk with the wise and grow wise!   Walk with fools and become foolish.   Be careful with the people occupying your inner circle.  When I quit drinking I needed to find sober friends.   Today, as I am trying to build my life in a God honoring  fashion, I have to intentionally pursue friendships that do the same.   It's so easy to fall into the snare of seeking the wrong things.   Just like a football team has to work together for a victory.   We need team mates in this life that help us be wise not foolish.  What relationships will you invest in today?

He can be trusted!!!

 Jeremiah 17:7. " But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. 8 He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.  It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green.  It has no worries in a year of draught and never fails to bear fruit."    17:14 "Heal me Lord and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise."

I love these verses!! We can TRUST God in all things.   He is our ever present help in trouble.  Don't tell God you have a big problem.   Tell your problem you have a big God!   Gods got this no matter what it is!!  To be truly well TRUST HIM in it all today!!!🙏😇❤️

Jesus is our ever present help, strength  and hope!!! Trust Him today and always

Godliness with contentment is great gain!!

 John 3:27 "To this John replied, "A man can receive only what is given him from Heaven."  Philippians 4:11 "I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances."   Godliness with contentment is great gain!!! God doesn't always give us what we think we want.   He does provide for our every need.    TRUST God has you where He wants you today.   Everything we have is a gift from Heaven, being satisfied and content in it all, is a pillar of health and wellness in Christ Jesus.   Are you content today?  TRUST GOD is working all things out for His glory and your good.   Be good in all things!!! Be healthy and well in Christ Jesus!! He loves you and the ones you love more than you can imagine!!!

Prejudice?

 Esther 3:4 "Day after day they spoke to him but he refused to comply.  Therefore  they told Hanna about it to see whether Mordecai's behavior would be tolerated, for he had told them he was a Jew."   Mordecai refused to kneel down and pay Haman honor.  Haman's response was to annihilate all Jews.    This is some serious  prejudice!!! have you allowed yourself to become prejudice for a full group of people because of one person?  Take sometime today to think about this.

We are not the exception

 Esther 4:13.  "he sent back this answer: “Do not think that because you are in the king’s house you alone of all the Jews will escape."   Do you ever think you are the exception?   That, somehow you can get away with a particular sin, because it's "not that bad" and after all ; "God understands ".   Don't fool yourself!! God loves each of us too much to let us keep walking in ways that will destroy us.   Just like a good father disciplines his child, so Our Heavenly Father corrects us.   If you know there is a place in your life that you have unrepentant sin, take heart!! Fast that sin. Before you have to face the discipline.
