We have all week been looking at specific scriptures and we are going to continue with a lot more. Here we look at Ezekiel.

Lets unpack this scripture. We have great news for people trying to overcome their mistakes from the past. If you have messed up, you need to know that second and third chances are available that will help you move forwards in life. God is merciful and he says if you turn from sin in your life and follow him forgiveness is available, and you can be made as white as snow before God.

Next up we are going to look at Matthew 7 v 3.

There are great promises to claim in the Bible. There are also great scriptures that can help correct us. We live in a society today where all to often we can point a finger and condemn someone, is this right? And is this right when we ourselves have plenty of areas in our own lives to do better.

The simple message is we need to be slow to anger and not point the finger at people because we have areas where people can point the finger at us. So lets remain gentle, slow to anger and forgiving and concentrate on our own walk with Christ.

If you are curious about the Christian faith, come along to our family service every Sunday. Doors open at 10.45am for free refreshments and drinks. Our service then starts at 11.15am. 

The Bible contains such great advice and wisdom. Lets start off with a scripture from the book of John.

What does this scripture mean? What fantastic news. Jesus didn’t come into the world to condemn us but to save us. If you find yourself trapped in sin and are messing up daily, this promise is for you, Jesus does not condemn you nor should you condemn yourself.

Yes we have to be better and overcome the sinfulness in our lives and with the Lords help all things are possible, but always remember there is no condemnation for those who are saved and who have declared Jesus the Lord of their life.

Next up a scripture from Isaiah

This is another promise from God. If you are in a situation where you feel nervous or weak, God promises to strengthen you. It could be that you have a job interview coming up, or some circumstance that is causing you to feel unsettled, whatever it is when you are in Christ Jesus, he will rest on your weaknesses and make you strong through him. Pray that the Lord will rest on all your weaknesses.

The Bible contains such great advice and wisdom. Lets look at a scripture from Ephesians.

Lets unpack a bit about this scripture. It all sounds very scary when we refer to the devils’ schemes, but unfortunately there are dark forces working against us. But God has given us instruction what to do to deflect the enemies’ schemes to thwart negative situations that can come before us, as well as keeping our peace in a storm.

What does putting on the armor of God look like? It is a discipline but praying regularly about our needs and the needs of communities and others, claiming and declaring God’s promises over our lives and meditating on Bible scriptures can thwart the enemies’ plans to reek havoc, so pray with boldness and declare Gods promises over our lives.

Next up we are going to talk about Psalm 97v10

If we love the Lord, we should hate evil. What does evil look like? Well, it can come in all kinds of forms, but whatever the evil is we can take hope in this Psalm that those who are faithful in him regularly praying, confessing, and reading the Bible he will deliver us from wicked evil that the enemy wants to throw at us. So pray, read the word of God regularly and confess any sinfulness in our lives and he will deliver us from evil.

We will be posting our morning scripture Facebook posts on our blog so that you can read up on them later. Not only that but for our church members who do not use Facebook and want to see them as well. So we start off with scripture from Psalm 91.

What does this scripture mean? This is a promise we can claim from God. Those who spend time with God in prayer and meditate on his word will rest in him and God will be with them in all circumstances. Today could be filled with challenges but God is our fortress, and we can trust in him to bring us through whatever the day holds for us, so fear not God is with us.

Next up scripture from Psalm 33.

What does this scripture mean. From time to time friends, family and whoever is close to us can fail us. It could be a simple argument, or a very complicated situation that causes people to hurt one another. What this Psalm is saying is when we are saved and the Lord is our shepherd he will never fail us. Jesus is with us in every situation no matter what it is. It could be that you made a mistake and some others will turn from you because of it and fail, but Jesus will never turn away from us and never leaves or forsakes us. What a friend we have in Jesus and what a hope we have in him.

If you are curious about the Christian faith, come along to our family service every Sunday where you can claim promises in the Bible like those mentioned in Psalm 91 and 33. Doors open at 10.45am for free refreshments and drinks. Our service then starts at 11.15am. We will be happy to see you. Have a great day

A very popular scripture of the Bible is found in the book of Philippians, specifically Philippians 4 v 6, displayed below.

What a wonderful promise of God. How often do we get anxious about things going on in our lives. Paul is saying here do not get anxious. You do not have to be anxious we just have to trust God. God is saying pray to him about all of your situations going on whether they are good or bad, and make requests to God, then we are promised that God will bring us peace guarding our hearts and minds.

Whatever is going on in your life pray. Remember Jesus is the one that can calm the storm as he did when he was in the boat with his disciples in the Sea of Galilee. Jesus is the one who can bring calmness to your situation.

The title for this article is Prayer and deep relationship with the father can change your situation. So if you haven’t been praying as much, or are someone teetering on whether you should believe in God and give it a go, then start praying and wait for him to come in and change your situation, because he really can, and before you know it you will have a testimonial that glorifies God and his faithful promises.
