Today’s Scripture: I know all things you do, and I have opened a door for you that no one can shut. You have little strength, yet you obeyed my word and did not deny me. Revelation 3:8 NLT Tyndale
The door is open, now what? I will take the little strength I have and obey Him who opened the door and I will not deny Him. I will strengthen what little remains and turn to Him. I will obey His command to persevere knowing He has all strength and He will protect me. The door is open and He has come in and I fall on my face to welcome and honor Him.
On my knees I sing His praises for He is Holy, and He is worthy of all honor and glory and blessing. You created me for your pleasure O Lord, I am here to complete Your pleasure in me.
He is in and so am I and no one can shut this door. What does this mean? In the little strength I have I am not sure but He will strengthen me and He will use me. I will listen to the Spirit and pray for understanding and I am finished forever with my indifference.
Have you heard His knock at the door, His calling? What are you going to do?
Today’s Prayer: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty- the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come. You are worthy, O Lord my God, For You created everything, including me, for Your pleasure. You are worthy of all power and riches and my investment is in You. Please smell my prayers as they burn as incense before You. Use me, strengthen me and help me to understand. Amen

I join you in singing praises to our heavenly Abba Tom: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty-the one who always was, who is, and who is still to come. When I praise Him, no matter what the circumstances or my feelings about them, then I am strengthened, EVERYTIME! And Tom…this is just what I needed, right now, this very instant, when I am feeling the exact and polar opposite of strong. I hope you know and understand how mightily God uses you to minister to those of us who read (and pass along) your affirmations from the Word of God. Luke 4:18…Thank You JESUS and thank you brother for spreading the Good News! You are a blessing! Cindy

EVERYTIME! Cindy I soooo agree and I too thank you sister for your gift of encouragement. Your words of encouragement are also a gift from God and do confirm and spur me on to continue to seek His Word and to ask His Spirit to speak through these affirmations. Thank you Cindy to you and our loving savior for the Good News. Blessings to you!

I know He opens doors for me Tom. It is whether my eyes and heart are open enough to see and walk through that I have trouble with sometimes. I will echo the Holy, Holy, Holy with you.
Tom Raines says
I am with you Bill. Thank you for taking the time to drop in! I am so thankful for His Word that reminds me over and over of His promises. I too cry out and pray to overcome myself and live fully for Him in faith in these promises and to act as He instructs. I am praying for His courage and His strength that will be obedient. Love you brother!
