Call On God And He Answers

Take The Open Door Invitation

by Hazel Straub

Jeremiah 33:3
Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.

The Lord invites us to call on him. He hears and answers us and shows us many things that we do not know. Take his invitation today, as he longs to fellowship with you. He is touching our spiritual ears and eyes so that we can hear and see what he has for us. He is inviting us to taste and see that he is good! The door is open to him.

Thanks To God

by Hazel Straub

Thanks be to God who sustains and remains
He is our help and removes sins’ stains
Always proactive, not reactive on our behalf
Never forsakes but sustains by joyful laughs
Kingly anointing for the bride he will marry
Sacrificial Savior lovingly carefully he  carries

Grace, mercy and loving-kindness
Others are what is on his mind
Delightful thanks we raise to God

We Trust In The Name Of Our God

by Hazel Straub

We all trust in someone or something. Many trust in what gives fleeting pleasure, prestige or popularity. We who trust in Yahweh, God who is with us today, have a firm foundation on which to stand and depend.

Psalm 20:7-8 (NIV)
Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.

God’s Eyes Look For Fully Committed Hearts

by Hazel Straub

God created us in his image, which means we are not robots but choose upon whom we rely. Whom we choose depends on our heart. Do we trust in silver, gold, our human logic, fleshly wisdom or power? Or is our heart totally committed to God with no reservations? Human or natural help seems logical but is unreliable. It is better to have God strengthening and assisting than man. God hears and answers, when we cry and rely on him.

2 Chronicles 16:7-9 (NIV)
At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him: “Because you relied on the king of Aram and not on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand. Were not the Cushites and Libyans a mighty army with great numbers of chariots and horsemen? Yet when you relied on the LORD, he delivered them into your hand. For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. You have done a foolish thing, and from now on you will be at war.”

Restoration To God’s Favor

by Hazel Straub

Restoration – the return of something or someone to a former position, place or condition. God is in the process of returning us to our former condition before we sinned and had generations of the consequences of being twisted with sin. His son, Jesus, paid the price so each person from every tribe and language could be returned, renovated, renewed to the former condition of reflecting the glory of God, in fellowship and close relationship with him. It is a marvel that our Creator would love us so much that he would redeem us from our rebellion and make us new again, enjoying a close relationship with him.

2 Corinthians 5:18-20 (Amplified Bible)
“But all things are from God, Who through Jesus Christ reconciled us to Himself [received us into favor, brought us into harmony with Himself] and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation [that by word and deed we might aim to bring others into harmony with Him]. It was God [personally present] in Christ, reconciling and restoring the world to favor with Himself, not counting up and holding against [men] their trespasses [but cancelling them], and committing to us the message of reconciliation (of the restoration to favor). So we are Christ’s ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We [as Christ’s personal representatives] beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor [now offered you] and be reconciled to God.”

A Blessing Or A Curse Is Set Before You

by Hazel Straub

Deuteronomy 11:26-28 (NKJV)
“Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse: the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you today; and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known.”

If you are following the Lord, blessing is your portion. If you follow and worship other gods, you are under a curse. It is time to come into alignment with what God is saying. We choose either the blessing or the curse. It is time to proclaim, “I am a new creation and washed in the blood of Jesus, who died to bless me! I choose blessing because the Lord has and is blessing me.” Decree and agree with God that you are blessed!

God’s Servant-Jesus Restores You

by Hazel Straub

Isaiah 42:1-4 (Tanakh Translation)
“This is My servant, whom I uphold,
My chosen one, in whom I delight.
I have put My spirit upon him,
He shall teach the true way to the nations.
He shall not cry out or shout aloud,
Or make his voice heard in the streets.
He shall not break even a bruised reed,
Or snuff out even a dim wick.
He shall bring forth the true way,
He shall not grow dim or be bruised
Till he has established the true way on earth;
And the coastlands shall await his teaching.”

Jesus, God’s Son is the servant bathed with God’s Spirit. His gentleness will not break the deeply bruised and hurt or run over the small and insignificant. He quietly goes about his work to set things right, on earth. He does not get tired nor does he quit, until he finishes his work. Even the distant places are expectant to hear his teaching. He cares and tenderly restores with the truth.

Prayer Brings Radiance And Freedom

by Hazel Straub

God is good and not only hears us but also answers our cries to him. As we spend time in his presence, we get freedom from many things that have had us bound. Freedom from those things that have vexed us and with which we struggled, comes by focusing on him. Our face radiates joy because we are looking at God and resting in him. We do not worry but seek him/ It is time to become desperate for God  alone. Then we will see him answer and deliver us. The angel of the Lord protects and encompasses those who honor and reverence God. He rewards those who seek him with all their hearts.

Psalm 34:4-7 (NLT)
“I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me.
He freed me from all my fears.
Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy;
no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened;
he saved me from all my troubles.
For the angel of the Lord is a guard;
he surrounds and defends all who fear him.”
