Today's Encouragement (27 August 2022)

Greetings sister saints!

A new day is here that the Lord gave me and you, my sisters in Christ! Hope yours has been going well so far and you're strong in the faith. 

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Ephesians 6:16

 

I read a psalm for us sisters today... 

Hope that blesses and edifies you. (That picture on the video is the view where I was reading it. It was a beautiful day!) 

I was glad to get a good lot of work done in the garden too...satisfying. 

Praise God for giving us the strength to do whatever we get to do each day! Let us be thankful! And it's a joy to labour in good things like a garden which is providing essential food as we know we are to be content with food and raiment. 

For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

Isaiah 61:11

I love that! 

And speaking of raiment, I'm glad to have a growing stash of biblical clothing on my online sewing shop... 

Hope it will be a blessing to women who want to dress biblical. 

Next project coming up, I want to sew shirts for women and have them available for anyone looking. Lord willing I will get to that soon! (You can find my sewing shop here if you haven't.) 

I'm glad we sisters can simply live for the Lord every minute of our day and we don't have to be in that trap of having to have all these different clothes for different occasions etc...most of which is pride and people pleasing anyway. We can just dress the same every day and everywhere...meaning what we wear at home we wear out in the world too. Well maybe we wouldn't wear dirty farm or garden clothes out etc but still the same ones we wear everyday. God is everywhere and it's Him we strive to obey and live for and please. We've been set free haven't we sisters! Free from the bondage of sin in our clothing choices and free to focus on more important things than spending all this time trying to look a certain way. Glory to God! 

Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.

Genesis 3:21

And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

Revelation 6:11

God tells us the origin of clothing and what He desires of us all through His Word and the examples of other godly saints doesn't He. And we get white robes if we endure! 

Thank you sister for sharing this scripture picture... 

Praise God for His mercy and salvation! And His creation is another cause to give Him praise! He is worthy! 

Hope you sisters are having a peaceful and joyous day in the Lord! Hold fast in Christ! 

Love in Him, 

Sister Michaela
