One more thing…

Good morning again.

I don’t typically send two messages in one day, but the Holy Spirit impressed on my heart this message to give you.

God wants you to know how much he truly, truly, truly loves you.

So many people take God’s love as a simple thing. The God that created everything that IS…loves you and me. I’m tearing up just thinking about. I want to do an “ugly” cry but I am at work.

Please don’t take God’s love as a casual thing. His love cost him everything and cost you nothing.

Let that sit with you.

Good morning, Beautiful Family:

I greet you with so much love, this morning. I’m thankful and grateful that we have the opportunity to love, praise and worship the true and living God. The awesome God we serve is more powerful, omnipresent, omnipotent and omniscient than we can ever imagine.

I stand in awe and humility, knowing that God loves you and me past our faults and shortcomings. There is nothing we can ever do to earn a seat at the table of God. It is only through Jesus Christ that we gain redemption and an invitation to the table of the Lord.

There is a seat at the Lord’s Table just for you. Come and be set free. Leave the heavy weight of your sins at the door.

The invitations have been sent. Please RSVP.

Matthew 11:25-30 

New International Version (NIV)

The Father Revealed in the Son

25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.

27 “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

My prayer for us all is to richly and boldly walk into the fullness of the Lord with meek and humble hearts, remembering that it is nothing that we have earned or deserved on our own merit.

Go in peace, while praising and serving the Lord.

Good morning, Family:

The joy of the Lord is our Strength. What a joy it is to experience the beautiful presence of the Lord. I remember, when I was in my late teens, I would spend hours in my room reading God’s Word, singing worship and praise songs to the Lord, and praying and talking to the Lord.

I could always tell the very instant when the preseence of God would enter the room. There were times when I would lift my hands and cry. There would be other times when I would collapse to my knees and lay prostrate on the ground, because the glory of the Lord was so strong. In those times, after the presence left, I would fall into a deep sleep. I would wake up feeling so refreshed. It would literally feel like I fell asleep in the arms of the Lord.

Psalm 16:5-11 

New International Version (NIV)

Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup;
    you make my lot secure.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
    surely I have a delightful inheritance.
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;
    even at night my heart instructs me.
I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
    With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
    my body also will rest secure,
10 because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
    nor will you let your faithful[a] one see decay.
11 You make known to me the path of life;
    you will fill me with joy in your presence,
    with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

Love on God extra today. Ask God to teach you how to draw close to him. I pray that you will grow more and more each day.

Go in peace, while serving the Lord.

Rev. Marcia Davis

You Are…

Good morning, Family:

I greet you with so much love and gratitude. I’m so thankful that we are allowed to come to the alter of God, that dwells within us, and worship. We can worship God wherever we are because the Holy Spirit of God lives in each of us. We don’t have to wait until the next church service to be able to lift our hands or dance before the Lord. We can continually worship every hour of the day.

God is with us!  What a powerful and awesome statement. When we need guidance, God is with us. When we are scared or hurting, God is with us. Anything that we lack, God is with us and God alone will lead us to an abundant life.

Lord, God, You are our everything. We bless you Lord. Help us to remember everything that You Are, in Jesus name. Amen.

John 10:9-11 

English Standard Version (ESV)

I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

Go in peace, while praising and serving the Lord.

Still…

isaiah-40-28-29_ipad_original

Good morning, Family:

I’m so grateful for each of you today. We have began a new year. Old things are gone and new memories are being made. There is one thing that is STILL the same. God is still faithful. God is still Holy. God is still healing, according to his will. God is still love.

Isaiah 40:28 

English Standard Version (ESV)

28 Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
    the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
    his understanding is unsearchable.

May the unchanging peace of the Lord be you always.

Even So…

Happy New Year, Family:

I greet you with abundant love. May we begin the year in perfect position to receive our Lord. “Like a bride waiting for her groom, we’ll be a church waiting for you.” These lyrics are from the song Even So Come by Chris Tomlin. What powerful words and imagery.

Isaiah 61:10-11

New International Version (NIV)

10 I delight greatly in the Lord;
    my soul rejoices in my God.
For he has clothed me with garments of salvation
    and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,
as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest,
    and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
11 For as the soil makes the sprout come up
    and a garden causes seeds to grow,
so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness
    and praise spring up before all nations.

May the peace of the Lord be with you always.

Hands Up…

Lifted_Hands1

Good morning, Family:

It’s Monday December 30th. We are in the last year and the last week of the decade. What does God have for you, in the upcoming year?

Have you been still and asked the Holy Spirit to show, lead and guide you for the upcoming New Season? I received a glimpse of what is to come and I am so very excited.

May we lift our hands up and our hearts in total surrender to the will and purpose of God. May we put our hands up as a visual, physical, and emotional surrender in devotion to God.

Psalm 134

A song of ascents.

Praise the Lord, all you servants of the Lord
    who minister by night in the house of the Lord.
Lift up your hands in the sanctuary
    and praise the Lord.

May the Lord bless you from Zion, he who is the Maker of heaven and earth.

Be blessed, family. I love you with the neverending, never ceasing, all encompassing love of the Lord.

Go in peace, while serving the Lord. All thanks be to our God, Jehovah!

Inheritance…

Abba

Good morning, Family:

I greet you with love, peace, joy, and contentment, in the Holy Spirit and character of God.

As children of God, we take on the traits and characteristics of our family. What a wonderful blessing it is. when someone tells us that we remind them of our divine family. There is no shame in being adopted. Our Father wanted us more than anything in the world. His eyes were longing to hear the day that we could cry out to Him and say, “Abba, Father.”

Galatians 4:1-7 

New International Version (NIV)

What I am saying is that as long as an heir is underage, he is no different from a slave, although he owns the whole estate. The heir is subject to guardians and trustees until the time set by his father. So also, when we were underage, we were in slavery under the elemental spiritual forces of the world. But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship. Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.

The Word, today, has filled my heart and soul. It makes me want to dance and sing, but at the same time kneel, worship and cry. What a mighty God we serve!!

Glory to God in the Highest!

Good morning, Family:

I greet you with love, joy, and peace in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Around the world, Christians celebrated the birth of Jesus.

Hopefully, your family reflected on the magnitude of what his birth truly meant. Even before God made the choice to become flesh, he had already made the decision to die for us. That is why we celebrate Christmas. Emmanuel, God with us. Redeemer, Savior, and Lord of All.

Colossians 1:13-20

New International Version (NIV)

13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

The Supremacy of the Son of God

15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

Go in joy and thanksgiving, while serving the Lord.

In Christ alone.

Rev. Marcia Davis

 

Glory to God…

Luke 2:14 

King James Version (KJV)

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Good morning, Family:

May God continue to lead you and guide you in all that you do. God led by a Cloud in the wilderness. He led by a Star in the desert. Now he leads by His Spirit in our heart.

Continue to listen and watch for God. Trust his voice. Trust the Word of God.

I love you with the amazing and everlasting love of the Lord.

Now, go and be GREAT!!
