Verses of Strength

YOU can do all things

Posted on April 20, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

Have you ever felt like you couldn’t do something? Felt like you wouldn’t make it through a trial or a test? Maybe it was a test of patience, or maybe a school assignment. I’ve felt like that many times. I’m actually going through it now, my own test of patience.

But I have an answer for all that down heartedness! We CAN!

For the Bible tells us, I can do All things through Christ which strengthens me~ Philippians 4:13.

So I want to encourage you today to know that you can make it, you can face it, that crowd, that test, that assignment, whatever it is, we will get our strength, from the one who bore it all for you and me!

Have a blessed day!
Amanda

…are you washed?

Posted on April 13, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

Acts 2:38 KJV

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

I love this verse. Peter was such a rock for the Lord. Could you imagine the day of Pentecost? What a celebration to see! He was right when he said this. If we just come to the Lord, ask for forgiveness and be washed by the blood of Jesus, then we receive the Holy Ghost.

The Holy Ghost is our guide, comforter, a teacher. If we let it, our will guide our footsteps and help us to lead our lives for God! The Holy Ghost will transform your very soul and spirit if you allow!

So as the song that I grew up with goes, what can wash away my sins…nothing but the blood of Jesus!

Palm Sunday

Posted on April 1, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

John 12:13 NIV

They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”

The whole story if you want to follow along starts in John 12: 12~19.

This week starts a holy week. Today its Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter. This is the last week of Christ’s life on Earth. From passover to crucifixion, He went through all of this so we could have eternal life with Him…What a time to celebrate!

This week, let’s stop and take the time to celebrate what Easter is all about. It isn’t about eggs or a bunny. It’s about how our Savoir conquered death, hell, and the grave. How He died on a cross and bore out sins, and rose on the 3rd day! Hallelujah! Praise The Lord!

Blessings to you all!
Amanda

we have a Fighter

Posted on March 27, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

Have you ever wanted someone to stand beside you? Someone to fight for you? Someone to run too? Maybe a warrior or a soldier? Maybe it’s someone simple, like your parents, best friends, or even your spouse. I have wanted that myself. Though I am a single parent, and I wish to be married again someday, I have found that I have someone greater than anyone I could wish for or run too.

He has known me even before I was born and has been waiting on me to run to him, I just didn’t know it at the time. When I rededicated my life back to God a few years ago, I was hit with a lot of things. The devil tried to bring me down and tell me I would never matter, but I came across a scripture that shows me that I have a warrior that is ready to fight for me and all I have to do is hold my peace! Praise The Lord!!

Just as He fought for the children of Israel, He will fight for you and for me. He is the same fighter, the same warrior, the same commander, and the same God as He was so many years ago. When the enemy is attacking with his tricks and sly remarks, remember and hold to this, that you have a commander that will fight for you. All we have to do is let Him and give Him us.

The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.~ Exodus 14:14 (KJV)

Remember today that you have a fighter that will defend you from the enemy. That all you have to do is stay at peace. Remain in Him and His Word, His peace, His love and He will fight for you! Let Him conquer those traps, let Him break down those walls, let Him ease those doubts!

we have a FIGHTER!

Be Blessed Today!

do you have Faith?

Posted on March 23, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

The Bible makes a pretty bold statement when it says this:

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and he is a rewarded of them that diligently seek him~ Hebrews 11:6

So I asked myself that same question..” Do I have faith?”….answer is YES!

I know its so hard to have faith on something that we don’t see or find it hard to believe, but we believe and see with our spirit, our heart. God is all around us and without Him, it really is impossible to do anything. I have found this out the hard way. Life without Him has no direction and will lead to destruction. Yet, with our faith comes growth and strongness, and God will reward those that continually seek after Him!

So I ask you today…Do you have Faith?

stand….

Posted on March 22, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but of the power of God ~ 1st Corinthians 2:5

Let us learn to put our faith in the power of the cross, and not into the persuasive words of men, for they will not fulfill you!

For we may be in this world, but  don’t have to be of this world!

Let us stand on the promise of Christ!

Have a blessed evening,
Amanda

keep away….

Posted on March 21, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

1 John 5:21 NLT

Dear children, keep away from anything that might take God’s place in your heart.

God loves His children so much that He wants to be the first thing in their lives. He wants our hearts and our focus centered around him. He tells us to stay away from idols and worldly things so we can remain in Him and and His path. Things of this world can get us off course and lead us destruction. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy. This is why God gives us instruction to stay away from wickedly things.

Let’s heed to God’s instruction and play keep away!

It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

He makes all things new again

wait…..

Posted on March 15, 2012 by Enchantments of Faith

Wait patiently for the LORD.
Be brave and courageous.
Yes, wait patiently for the LORD~
Psalm 27:14 NLT

Wait….such a small word that packs a huge meaning.

What does it mean to wait? It means to stand and let God work! It means to stand and let God move, answer, bless, heal, do what His will is for our problem and our life. It means to stand and be patient, to seek out God and be strong and courageous in  your prayers, seeking, and your walk.

Its hard because this old flesh just wants to rise up and fix what we have asked God to fix and help in, but if we seek Him, pray, and Listen for His answers, He will answer right on time!

Let’s stand and be courageous, and wait patiently for the Lord!

God Bless,
Amanda
