Listening To Instruction

by Hazel Straub

The one who pays attention to instructions and  takes correction, brings life to himself and to others. A leader is first a good follower and welcomes a rebuke because it helps keep one on the right path. The one who refuses to listen to correction brings destruction on oneself and others who follow.

He who heeds instruction and correction is [not only himself] in the way of life [but also] is a way of life for others. And he who neglects or refuses reproof [not only himself] goes astray [but also] causes to err and is a path toward ruin for others. (Proverbs 10:17 AMPC)

Beloved Children

by Hazel Straub

Daddy God  lavishes extravagant love on us and calls us his beloved children. He gives us our identity and provides and cares for us. There is no doubt that he loves us. We will be like Christ. Amazing!

See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is. (1 John 3:1-2 NLT)

You Are Valuable!

by Hazel Straub

Your true worth is not based on your performance or how you think about yourself. Instead God sets your value and he decrees you are valuable.

We change our negative thoughts, that produce toxic emotions, by releasing and letting them go. Replace them with God’s truth about your worth. Change your focus and your viewpoint. Take a step forward and look at God, how much he loves and accepts you. Take one of these Bible verses and speak and declare it out loud, think on it. It is a process that will change your life!

God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. (1 John 4:9-10 NLT)

All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. (1 John 4: 15-16 NLT)

But I am like an olive tree, thriving in the house of God.
I will always trust in God’s unfailing love. (Psalm 52:8 NLT)

You Have Victory In Christ

by Hazel Straub

Discouraged, tired and wanting to quit the battle? Our fight is not with flesh and blood but with principalities and rulers of darkness. Fear, intimidation, lies and shifting shadows are the weapons used to paralyze you, with toxic emotions, attempting to cause you to quit. Instead, remember that you live in Christ and he lives in you. Christ has won the victory and his victory is yours.

So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard or ensign against him. (Isaiah 59:19 KJV) The Spirit of the Lord fights for us. Keep your focus on the Lord, not the enemy and know you win!  Rejoice in the Lord fighting for you and praise him. He gives strength to those who are weak.

You are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. (1 John 4:4 KJV)

Blessing Of Hope

by Hazel Straub

May God bring overflowing hope to you that inspires, with bubbling joy and perfect peace, as you trust and have faith in him. The power of Holy Spirit make you excellent of soul with fountains of abundant hope that flows out of you.

May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope. (Romans 15:13 AMPC)

Faith In God Brings Great Rewards

by Hazel Straub

Faith makes the unseen reality. Faith believes God’s voice commanded and created all the universe. The unseen (words) brought the seen (creation), into reality. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Faith causes us to seek God with our whole hearts.

Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. This testimony of faith is what previous generations were commended for. Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated by the power of God’s words! He spoke and the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen. (Hebrews 11:1-3 TPT)

And without faith living within us it would be impossible to please God. For we come to God in faith knowing that he is real and that he rewards the faith of those who give all their passion and strength into seeking him. (Hebrews 11:6 TPT)

Father God Cares And Provides For You!

by Hazel Straub

Big problems coming at you? Know that God has big provision for you because he is faithful. He is our loving Father and provides for all of our needs. Rather than worrying, give the problem to him and praise and thank him that he has heard and he cares for you.

God gave his only Son, Christ Jesus, to pay for our sins. He provides rain and sunshine for the growing of crops.He is attentive to our cries and prayers to him and tenderly cares for us. Nothing is too hard for him. Trust and have faith in him!

And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19 NLT)

“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today. (Matthew 6:31-34 NLT)

Speak Life To The Dry Bones

by Hazel Straub

God created us in his image. He spoke the world into existence. With our tongue we speak life or death and create our world . God brought Ezekiel to a valley filled with dry bones. God told him to prophesy to the bones and they would come to life. Ezekiel spoke as the Lord told him to and the bones became a great army. In the same way, we can speak to the parts of us that are dead and dry and they will come to life once again. Speak life to the dead promises in your life and see them come to life. Jesus came to give us abundant life. Agree and speak abundant overflowing life to those dead places and watch them come to vibrant life!

So God created human beings in his own image.
In the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27 NLT)

Then he said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones, listen to the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Look! I am going to put breath into you and make you live again! I will put flesh and muscles on you and cover you with skin. I will put breath into you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’” (Ezekiel 37:4-6 NLT)

Gratitude And Thankfulness Honors God

by Hazel Straub

Gratitude and thankfulness to God, for all he has done for us, keeps our focus on him. Thankfulness is what we give to get closer to God. This attitude honors God and helps us to walk his way. Thankfulness is the key to revelation of God’s salvation. Rejoice and praise him! Then we experience true life and joy!

But giving thanks is a sacrifice that truly honors me.
If you keep to my path,
I will reveal to you the salvation of God. (Psalm 50:23 NLT)
