God's Great Protection ( part 2 )

Well I come with part 2 of my message on God's great portection. I am so very thankful to God for allowing me this time to write this!! I could not keep up with this, and all the demands of a busy house with 5 kids with out HIM!!!

These verses tells us of God's promise of portection over us!

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and His ears are open unto thier prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil. And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good? 1 Peter 3 : 12-13


The angle of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him, and delivereth them. Psalms 34:7

For the Lord is our defence: and the Holy One of Israel is our King. Psalm 89: 18

The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto thier cry. The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them from all thier troubles. The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart : and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. Psalm 34: 15, 17, 18 & 19

But the Lord is my defence and my God is the rock of my refuge. Psalm94:22

The Lord also will be a refuge for the opressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they that know thy name will put thier trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. Psalm 9 : 9-10

He only is my rock and my salvation : he is my defence: I shall not be moved. He only is my salvation and my glory the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. Psalm 62: 6-7

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountians be carried into the midst of the sea. Psalm 46: 1-2

The Lord is my light and my slavation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine eniems and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Psalm 27: 1-2

And he said, The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer: The God of my rock; in Him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my savior: thou savest me from violence. I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enimeis. 2 Samuel 22 : 2-4


Oh how I love those verses!! Don't they just fill you with comfort and peace!!

Well I fiind there is just to many verses to list this time, so I will have to write more later when I can find another spare moment in this busy house!!! Praising the Lord for the time that I have had!!
So be on the out look or part 3!

God's Great Protection ( part 1 )

I am at at total awe of God's great protection over His people shown in the Bible. Time and time again we see instances in the the Bible how he protected and kept his people safe in different situations.

We also read many , many, places that promise God's love and protection over us if we love and obey Him. We have totally nothing to worry about if we are one of "His". And we do not need to feel that we have to protect our selves. He is so much more capable of that than we are!!!


I plan to look up several verses on this and share them in a later post.

Here is two that I love that I will share now.

When a man's ways please the Lord, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. Proverbs 16: 7

The angle of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. Psalms 34: 7

Don't you just love that!!!

Look for, God's Great Protection (part 2) coming soon.

A Peculiar People


I find it intresting that God refered to his people in the Bible as a peculiar people or a peculiar treasure. So if you stand out, look different , talk differnet, or seem just plain wired to others; thats ok, your just God's pecualir people!!!

Also I find it intersting that in most of those places it also calls his people a holy nation, and that they keep his commanments.
I have looked up in our concordance all the scriptures that are mintioned in the Bible that calls God's people peculiar. Here I have them listed.

Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covent, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of Priests, and a holy nation. Exodus 19: 5-6

For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all nations that are upon the earth. Deuteronomy 14: 2

And the Lord hath avouched thee this day to be His peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments: And to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in praise, and in name, and in honour: that thou mayest be an holy people unto the Lord thy God, as he hath spoken. Deuteronomy 26: 18-19 ( also read Duet. 26: 16-17)


For the Lord hath chosen Jacob unto himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure. Psalms 135: 4

Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all inquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. Titus 2: 14 (12 & 13 also)

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood ,an holy nation, a peculiar people: that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darknees into his marvellous light. 1 Peter 2:9

Were a peculiar people!! Isn't that awesome! May we live up to the name.

God's Aewsome Power ( part 2 )

(Here is part 2 of the message I was writing on God's awesome power. To read part 1, scroll down.)

Here is just a few of the many, many times we see God's power demostrated in the Bible. Of course God's whole word shows His power to us.


God created the the heaven and the earth. He said it and it was done! Genises 1: 1-10

God created man from dust and breathed in to his nostrils the breath of life! Genesis 2:7

God took a rib from the man and created a woman! Genesis 2:21-22

There appeared no hope for the Israelites, the Egyptian army behind them, and the mighty Red Sea in front of them! Then God rolled back the waters of the Red Sea with a strong east wind, and the Israelites crossed through in safety! Exodos 14:23

God rained down bread from heaven to feed the Israelites in the wilderness! Exodus 16:3-4

Elija by God's instructions poured buckets and buckts of water over the alter, and even filled a trench around it!! Then God sent down fire from heaven on the alter!! 1Kings 18:33-39 (This should be immposible; But not with God!!!!)

God saved Shadrach, Mesahach, and Abednego from the fiery furnace! Daniel 3:20-27

Daniel was thrown in the lions den for praying to God. Daniel should have been ate up, but God sent an angel to shut the mouths of the lions! Daniel 6:16-23

A virgin conceived a child! Luke 1:31

Jesus fed about 5 thousand men with 5 loaves and 2 fish, and there was leftovers too!! Luke 9:12-17

Jesus made the blind to see, made the lame and crippled to walk, healed the sick and ones with leprosy!

Jesus turned water into wine! John 2: 1-11

Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead! John 11: 40-44

And many many for miracles like this Jesus did!

Wow, after writing all these things down I just stand in awe of God's great and mighty power!!!

"And he said, the things which are impossible with men are possible with God". Luke 18:27

" And Jesus looking upon them, saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible."

So whats impossible with God? Nothing!! What can't God do? Nothing!!! Whats to big for God? Nothing!! I just love it, don't you!?

God's Awesome Power ( part 1)

Just recently in the boys Bible curriculum I have been reading with them the Bible stories of Daniel and the Lions Den, The Fiery Furnace, Abraham and Sara having a son at thier old age, and about the Israelites crossing the Red Sea. What power we see demonstrated by God in those stories!!

Aren't you just in total awe of His power and greatness!! I am!! And you know our God is the same yesterday, today and forever!! So just as He was capable of those great miralces then, He still is very much so today as well!! Wow!! That is so awesome!!

We just need to believe that He can, and put all our trust in to him. He wants to work miracles in our life, but are we willling to let him? Do we believe that he really can? Do we believe that he still has the power today as he did before?

I plan to go through the Bible and find scripture verses on the the different examples of God's great power like the ones mentioned above and post them here in a future post.

I think its good for all us to be reminded of God's greatness from time to time. It gives us encouragement and lets us know that NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD!! If Its is His will it will be done no matter how impossible to us it may seem. And if something is not God's will , it will not be done or can not happen no matter how likely it seems to us that it will!!!

We got to give our lives over to Him 100%, and then He can work in us!! Are you willing to do that, do you think hes big enough? The answer is yes He is!!

Look for, God's Awesome Power ( part 2), coming soon.

" And he said, the Things which are impossible with men are possible with God.". Luke 18:27
