Let God Be Enough
Posted: 24 Jan 2012 10:00 PM PST
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Matthew 6:33-34
Jesus said, “I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough.”
Not enough time, luck, credit, wisdom, intelligence. We’re running out of everything, it seems, and so we worry! But worry doesn’t work.
I challenge you to become a worry-slapper.
Do you procrastinate when a blood-sucking bug lights on your skin? “I’ll take care of that in a moment.” Of course you don’t! You give the critter the slap it deserves.
Don’t waste an hour wondering what your boss thinks. Ask her.
Don’t assume you’ll never get out of debt. Consult an expert.
Let God be enough! He knows your needs. Seek Him! He will give you everything you need!
AMEN!
Please pray for Denna Stevenson she goes in for Medical Tests today on her lungs. We are praying for healing! We are receiving healing for Denna!
Also just a reminder……..
Dewey,
My mother in law, Opal, is entering the last days of her life here on this planet as she prepares for graduation. However, we need prayers for strength and guidance as my wife Diana trys to keep her mother in our home as long as possible. Prayers are needed as we make decisions for her care. Do we hire night time help; move her to a nursing home here in New Mexico; do we move her back to her home in Oklahoma where her plot is located and place her in a nursing home there. We are seeking guidance for the best care for Opal However, caring for her in our home means that my wife must be a full time caregiver. So prayers are needed for strength and rest periods for Diana. Thank you in advance for all the prayers on our behalf.
God bless,
Your Bible Boost

Here is a question from Gary, I do not know the circumstances that cause Gary to ask the question,maybe someone is asking Gary for help, it is a question asked from time to time and the Church does debate this. We must remember, Our Salvation, our relationship with JESUS is not something meant to be put on a certificate and Framed like a Car warranty, Stay on your Walk with Jesus each day, Read His Word, be filled with the Holy Spirit, He will guide your steps…and you will not have to ask the question………I turned to two of my mentor’s Pastor Jim Montoya and Pastor Paul Holt to answer this question……..
What is your perception of the phrase,
“Once Saved, Always Saved”.
Besides denying GOD (existence), can one ‘LOSE’ their Salvation
after accepting HIM as their LORD & SAVIOR?
Gary W.
Dewey,
The question; “Can I lose my salvation?” is a common question for pastors (right after do my pets go to heaven). But it is the wrong question. The question I would ask; “Why do you seek the Lord?” Are you just looking for fire insurance or the avoidance of punishment. Do you desire a relationship with the King?
How would we feel if our spouse wanted to marry us to avoid punishment, say deportation? Jesus was ask by a wealthy young man what he must do have eternal life, because from youth he had obeyed all the commandments. Jesus replied that he must sell all that he had and then follow Him.
We can search the scriptures and find text to support our point of view, but ultimately the question is one of the heart. Do I love the Lord with all that I am and do I pursue Him with the passion required to find Him? If we answer well the right questions, the question of eternal security becomes foolish and silly.
