Kind and gracious speech is not only sweet to the psyche but it brings health and vitality, as it’s curative to one’s bones.
Proverbs 16:24 (NIV)
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones.

Wisdom Listens And Learns
by Hazel Straub
God is working on the character of each believer. At times, someone in authority will speak truth into our lives. Pride causes one to argue to seem right. But the one with wisdom listens, receives and implements instruction.
Proverbs 13:10 (NIV)
Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice.

The Power Of Agreeing Prayer
by Hazel Straub
Agree with God’s Word. Then if two people are in harmony, with strong belief, praying in the name of Jesus the Messiah, it’s done. Power comes from unity in prayer. Daddy God, loves to answer those who pray in unity. Jesus is also with them. Agreement in prayer changes governments, communities, families, hearts, and circumstances. Pray with one heart with one another and the enemy flees!
Father make us one as you and your son, Jesus are one. Give us your heart so we will pray your will, in agreement.
Matthew 18:19-20 (NIV)
“Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”

Trust In God From Your Heart
by Hazel Straub
Trust, believe and have confidence in the reliability and character of God. It is an issue of your heart. Relationship with God begins with listening and trusting him.
Proverbs 3:5-8 (The Message)
“Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
don’t try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
he’s the one who will keep you on track.
Don’t assume that you know it all.
Run to God! Run from evil!
Your body will glow with health,
your very bones will vibrate with life!”

It’s Time To Rest
by Hazel Straub
God is calling us to his rest. Too often we fill our days and nights full of activities, without pausing to rest. Rest rejuvenates and revives. Slow down, calm down and rest. Get some needed sleep. Do not let the urgent things rob you of vital refreshment. Get your priorities right and do the most important. Be still, listen and become intimate with Daddy God. Rest.
Matthew 11:28 (NIV)
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Life Tests
by Hazel Straub
God gives us character tests. If we fail the first time, we will get to take the test again. The same test comes again and again, until we pass. During this process, we are not alone because the Holy Spirit is our helper. Taking the time to listen and follow his instructions helps navigate through testings and trials.
Thank you Daddy God, for your mercy, loving kindness and goodness to us.
