God’s Word To You

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

There are some people who prey on the sympathy, of the weak. There are others, who only like you, when you’re doing or saying what they agree with. But then there are those whom make it a career in life, always looking for the worst, digging up dirt, or bringing up past sins, to always discredit someone in the eyes of others. However, when you know who you are (redeemed), and embrace who you are (approved of God), none of what they do or say matters.

What matters most is God’s Word in your life, it supersedes all sin, the past, and the opinions of mankind.

Trust God As Your Provider

trust2

by Hazel Straub

God says: “Trust me not your resources, job, abilities, reasoning or heritage. Nothing is too difficult for me. Did I not sustain the Israelites for 40 years in the wilderness? They had bread from heaven to eat and supernatural water. Their clothes and shoes did not wear out. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. I am your provision and there is no lack, when I am your source.”

And now I have it all—and keep getting more! The gifts you sent with Epaphroditus were more than enough, like a sweet-smelling sacrifice roasting on the altar, filling the air with fragrance, pleasing God no end. You can be sure that God will take care of everything you need, his generosity exceeding even yours in the glory that pours from Jesus. Our God and Father abounds in glory that just pours out into eternity. Yes. (Philippians 4:18-20 MSG)

Lord, Increase My Hunger And Thirst For You

by Hazel Straub

The Lord says: Do you have the same hunger for me as you have for food, possessions and entertainment? Do you long to eat and drink the delicacies of my spiritual food and drink, more than anything else? I desire to sup with you but you are too busy. My heart yearns for you to spend more time with me, so I can satisfy your true thirst and hunger.

Rest and worship, as did the woman, who desired my presence more than the approval of men. Her breaking her alabaster box and pouring its costly precious perfume, on my head, was fragrant worship that remained with me, when I laid down my life for you. (Matthew 26:6-13)

I long for worshipers that desire me more than anything else. It is time for you to cry out to me: Make me more hungry and thirsty for you, Jesus!

Oh, who will pay the price, to truly worship me, seeking me with their whole heart? Come away with me, my beloved.

God’s Covenant Of Love

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

True Covenant is so much more than agreement. True covenant is fighting to keep covenant relationship with one another, instead of arguing who is wrong or who is right. I’m so elated that the Father is LOVE, he remains in covenant with us wrong or right, agreement or disagreement. 

Lord help us be more exemplary.

God Never Gives Up On You

by Hazel Straub

God gives us the transforming life of his son, Jesus the Messiah. No matter how many times we fail, God never gives up on us and loves anyway. This love has no hooks, is scandalous, and amazing. God is wonderful beyond comprehension and description! Rejoice in this truth.

“God, who got you started in this spiritual adventure, shares with us the life of his Son and our Master Jesus. He will never give up on you. Never forget that.” (1 Corinthians 1:9 MSG)

Selfless Love

Unknown

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

What you care about, you make effort about, and what you don’t care for, you make excuses for. However, Yahweh cared so much for us that he gave us his son, as a sacrifice for us. How will you expend yourself for others today? Love is selfless not selfish.

Father, Thank You For Tests

iu-1

by Hazel Straub

How many times have you cried to God for deliverance from a difficult trial? The pressure seemed endless, relentless and unpleasant. God answers, “I will go with you through your troubles and give you strength to endure the test.”

Maturity comes with bumps in the road, not when there are no challenges. Testings purify and make you stronger. The key to passing the test is total reliance on the Lord and not depending on your brilliance, analysis, flesh or own strength. Leaning on the Lord humbles and rids one of pride and independence.

Thank you Lord for giving me tests and helping me pass them!

Blessed are those who endure when they are tested. When they pass the test, they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. (James 1:12 NOG)

Spruce Trees Seeds Of Greatness

by Hazel Straub

While listening to the Lord, the sun highlighted the tops of the spruce trees that had immature spruce cones. “The seeds of greatness are within you but they are not yet mature. Stay close to me, supple and pliable to my will. You will grow and mature and have mighty impact for my kingdom. Let my wind blow so cross-pollination from other trees will help in the maturing process. Once you are mature, you will leave the spruce, your seeds will release and die. As you kill the selfish flesh, the seeds sprout and produce many new trees. Patience, trust and reliance upon me brings forth much fruit.”

Let me make this clear: A single grain of wheat will never be more than a single grain of wheat unless it drops into the ground and dies. Because then it sprouts and produces a great harvest of wheat—all because one grain died. “The person who loves his life and pampers himself will miss true life! But the one who detaches his life from this world and abandons himself to me, will find true life and enjoy it forever! (John 12:24-25 TPT)
