A.W. Tozer : Some Other Time
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. –John 14:12
“You will receive power” (Acts 1:8a). “Eagerly desire the greater gifts” (1 Corinthians 12:31a). Anything that God has ever done for a soul He will do for anyone else, if the conditions are met. The Lord who blessed these men that I spoke about, and the thousands who followed them but whose names are not known, is willing to do the same for us as He did for them.
Unbelief says: Some other time, but not now; some other place, but not here; some other people, but not us. Faith says: Anything He did anywhere else He will do here; anything He did any other time He is willing to do now; anything He ever did for other people He is willing to do for us! With our feet on the ground, and our head cool, but with our heart ablaze with the love of God, we walk out in this fullness of the Spirit, if we will yield and obey. God wants to work through you!
The Counselor has come, and He doesn’t care about the limits of locality, geography, time or nationality. The Body of Christ is bigger than all of these. The question is: Will you open your heart? The Counselor, 121.
“This thought is very convicting, Lord. I know I’ve been guilty of praising You for Your power and goodness, while secretly doubting that You were really going to work in my present situation. Forgive me that duplicity, Lord, and give me faith to believe You for Now, for Here, for Me. Amen.“

The Reign of the Messiah Psalm 72
Give the king Your judgments, O God,
And Your righteousness to the kings’s Son.
He will judge Your people with righteousness,
And Your poor with justice.
The mountains will bring peace to the people,
And the little hill, by righteousness.
He will bring justice to the poor of the people;
He will save the children of the needy,
And will break in pieces the oppressor.
They shall fear You As long as the sun and moon endure,
Throughout all generations.
He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass,
Like shower that water the earth.
In His days the righteous shall flourish,
And abundance of peace,
Until the moon is no more.
He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
And from the River to the ends of the earth.
Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before Him,
And His enemies will lick the dust.
The kings of Tarshish and of the isles
Will bring presents;
The kings of Sheba and Seba Will offer gifts.
Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him;
All nations shall serve Him.
For He will deliver the needy when he cries,
The poor also, and him who has no helper.
He will spare the poor and needy,
And will save the souls of the needy.
He will redeem their life from oppression and violence;
And precious shall be their blood in His sight.
And He shall live;
And the gold of Sheba will be given to Him;
Prayer also will be made for Him continually,
And daily He shall be praised.
There will be an abundance of grain in the earth,
On the top of the mountains;
Its fruit shall wave like Lebanon;
And those in the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
His name shall endure forever;
His name shall continue as long as the sun,
And men shall be blessed in Him;
All nations shall call Him blessed.
Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel,
Who only does wondrous things!
And blessed be His glorious name forever!
And let the whole earth be filled with His glory.
Amen and Amen.
The prayer of David the son of Jesse are ended.
Pastor’s New Baby
A pastor’s wife was expecting a baby, so he stood before theCongregation and asked for a raise. After much discussion, they passed
a rule that whenever the preacher’s family expanded, so would his
paycheck.
After 6 children, this started to get expensive and the congregation
decided to hold another meeting to discuss the preacher’s expanding
salary. A great deal of yelling and inner bickering ensued, as to how
much the clergyman’s additional children were costing the church, and
how much more it could potentially cost.
After listening to them for about an hour, the pastor rose from his
chair and spoke, ‘Children are a gift from God, and we will take as many
gifts as He gives us. Silence fell on the congregation.In the back pew, a little old lady struggled to stand, and finally
said in her frail voice, ‘Rain is also a gift from God, but when we get too
much of it, we wear rubbers.’
The entire congregation said, ‘Amen.‘

Praise and Glory
Image via Wikipedia
In a world where it seems as if madness reigns supreme we know that there is just one divine being that we can turn to. The One that is always there and always in control. The One that gives of Himself, and gave His only begotten son that we may have eternal life. May you always know His love and may you always remember that He is there and that all you have to do is ask. In Jesus name, I give praise and glory, and I give thanks for all the times that He has touched my life. I pray that you, too, will take the time to say “God, in your Son, Jesus name please help me. Thank you, Lord, Amen.
Shiloh, The Place Of Peace (via Scripture Nuggets)

When I felt as if my world was spinning out of control and that I could not take it anymore, I let go. I remember being curled up on my bed, crying out to God and saying “please God, either let me die, or save me, but it’s up to you, I can’t take anymore.” With those few words my life changed. It wasn’t that I quit hurting, I didn’t, but I gained peace in my life. It became something that I could handle. Answers started to come and the problems, suddenly didn’t seem impossible. The sense of peace that I felt then and that I feel now, when I give everything to God, is simply something that I cannot describe. I hope and pray that you have God in your life. If you don’t it is simple to give him the permission to help you, you simply ask “Please God, help me in Your Son’s name, I give you praise and glory, Amen.“
