Today's Encouragement (28 March 2022)

 

Greetings in love to my sister saints! 

Each day we trust in the Lord to provide all we need. And He is faithful! 

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Matthew 6:33

I know we may share that one a lot but it's such an important one to remember. Well you know it's all important but it shows our priorities that we should have and not worry about things in our lives. And more and more I see that that is not going on in most people's lives who say they are Christ's. But may it not be so with us. 

God (and Christ) is to be number one in our lives. 

And He is... 

Our first love

Our Lord and Master

Above all else. 

He says how we live our lives and we obey

Everything else is subject to Him

We test all things against His will

And fear Him

Don't want to grieve Him, 

Or bring shame and reproach and blasphemy on His name by disobedience and darkness. 

So many ways we put Him first and everything falls into place. Well everything we do even as godly women like cooking and cleaning are because of our obedience to Him and fulfilling our roles as keepers at home etc which is showing our love for God. 

As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 

If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

1 Peter 4:10-11

May He in all things be glorified sisters! 

This is our whole life isn't it sisters...the one we live in Christ. Not something we put on and off but always and daily are striving in. 

And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

Acts 5:42

But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

Hebrews 3:13

Let us all keep pressing on in seeking first God's kingdom and righteousness and loving Him with all that we are. Nothing...absolutely nothing...must come in the way between Him and us. 

Glad to pick the first of the corn tonight! 

Thanks to God for providing! 

And the calves get the husks... 

I collected some parsley seed to plant and sent a picture to a sister who added this scripture. (thank you sister:-)

Praise God for His Word and that we also get to be labourers in planting and watering but it's always God that gives the increase! And what an awesome amazing creation is the seed and how God made the plants to be fruitful and multiply and in so doing provide food for mankind. Glory to Him! 

May your day be blessed in the Lord sisters. And I hope you keep diligently going about your good works unto the Lord! 

Love in Christ, 

Sister Michaela
