Good evening, friends.
I wanted to give everyone a reminder that you can mute this channel if perhaps you are annoyed with the alerts when something gets posted. Just select the three vertical dots in the upper right hand corner and select "Mute". After that you can select "Mute Forever".
You can also do this with the chat channel that is connected to this main channel.
I hope this helps.
Thank you, I am very glad that you are here.

What Are You Haunted By?
By Oswald Chambers
June 2
Who, then, are those who fear the Lord? Psalm 25:12
What are you haunted by? “Nothing,” you will say. But we are all haunted by something. Usually we are haunted by ourselves or, if we are Christians, by our spiritual experience. The psalmist says we must be haunted by God—that it is God alone we must fear.
To be haunted by the Lord is to make him the ruling consciousness of our lives. A child’s consciousness is so mother-haunted that although children are not always consciously thinking of their mother, they instinctively seek their mother whenever a crisis arises. In the same way, we are to live and move and have our being in God. The whole of our life, inside and out, is to be absolutely dominated by his presence.
If we are haunted by God, nothing else can get in—no worries, no distractions, no troubles. We see now why our Lord so emphasized the sin of worrying (Matthew 6:25–34). How dare we be so unbelieving when God is all around?
“His soul shall dwell at ease” (Psalm 25:13 KJV). In tribulation, misunderstanding, and slander—in the midst of all these things—if our life is hidden with Christ in God, he will keep us in peace. We rob ourselves of the marvelous revelation of this abiding companionship. “God is our refuge and strength” (Psalm 46:1). Nothing can get through this shelter.

"But ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you; or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you. Who among all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?
In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind."
Job 12:7-10

STEFFANY GRETZINGER FEAT. LEELAND - No Turning Back
Sometimes, I confuse myself. My emotions seem to be all over the place.
How very much God knows our tendency to veer from His ways when it comes to our hearts.
How often we allow our emotions and affections to rule us.
How many revered men have been brought down by illicit affairs? How many women have made stupid decisions in the name of love?
But our hearts aren’t just prone to be lead astray when it comes to the opposite sex.
Our hearts chase after wrong things all the time. All the time.
The Bible says,”the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately sick who can understand it? “(Jer 17:9)
So what are we to do with that?! 😳
That next verse in Jeremiah is so very important—
“I, the Lord, search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways according to the fruit of his deeds” (Jer 17:10)
God searches our hearts. He is the righteous judge.
This is a sobering thought.
So, what can we do?
We can REMEMBER what God has given us AND USE IT!
Because Christians have the Word , prayer and the Holy Spirit, we don’t have to follow our emotions and walk ourselves into trouble—
“For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” (2 Cor 10:3-5)
As we wash our thoughts with God’s Word, our thoughts become right.
When our thoughts are right, our actions are right and we avoid loads of pain.
“Yes, Let not mercy and truth forsake you;
Bind them around your neck,
Write them on the tablet of your heart,
And so find favor and high esteem
In the sight of God and man.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
It will be health to your flesh,
And strength to your bones.”
(Prov 3:3-8)
In ALL your ways acknowledge Him and you will find strength for your bones to walk in the way of peace!
Before you take one step forward into what might bring you pain, 🛑 STOP! Seek counsel from the Word. Pray. Listen to the Holy Spirit! As you do, you will be blessed!
