It's a New Day - Lisa Patterson

Today is the day to be thankful for all the Lord is doing. Although things may seem to be intertwined in your life. He makes the crooked places straight. There's a new beginning coming this year and it is for all God's people. He loves everyone and is not partial, sick or not, healthy, clean, dirty, job, no job, in pain, no pain, money, no money. We are all the same in His sight. The Lord loves us all the same. We are His craftsmenship and He spent time putting us together. He said to hold on, if you are His, and let him finish what he's doing. He is straightening it all out and taking care of it all for you. "There's a new day coming to prepare for the way of the Lord and His people to gather together and be the people He made us to be. We are intricately and wonderfully made, and there's nothing that will harm you if you are in Him. To be in the world is to be outside the umbrella of what He's wanting and doing for us." His way is the best even though we may not understand why why we have to go through the things we do. You say, I have been treated mean and ugly by people who were supposed to love me and be by my side. Come into Him and let Him do the cleaning up that needs to be done in order to get you where you need to be. Don't try to think you can do it yourself. He made us and we cannot "fix" ourselves.Only the Lord knows our inner thoughts and desires and what to do when we need changing. It is imperative to go to the Father and let Him do the work. It is always a spiritual thing that we cannot do, because we are a spirit, made in the image of God. He uses men to help us get the things we need. He made us all so different that we have to have each other. Whether it seems small to you, it is big in His eyes.We are precious to Him, for we are all made differently and no two are alike, even identical twins.
John 10:10 says,For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him would be saved and not perish. Don't let the enemy tell you there is no such thing as hell. It is a very real place and was designed for the devil and his cohorts. Not for God's people.The devil is very good at tricking people and uses many ways to do so. The Lord never wanted anyone to go to hell. But people are going everyday. If you do not have peace in your heart, you need to check and make sure you belong to the Lord Jesus. Make it right. No peace is a sign things aren't right with Jesus. The devil doesn't want you to read this because it will mess with your convictions. You can backslide, but not for long. The Lord will woo you back to Him and you can't keep turning him down and doing what you want to do.You will know it is wrong if you have the Lord in your heart.It doesn't matter if you have been left by your spouse, or your kids don't like you. It's time to get right with the Lord and He will bring those things back in place.When you receive Him you'll know it inside and have peace. You won't say, that Bible is just another book. you'll know it's real. So, quit putting it off today and get it right with the Lord before it's too late. Too many are missing the boat and going with the enemy. There's no turning back when you get to eternity. it is real whether you think so. The devil will tell you it isn't and there's plenty of ways to get to Heaven. But it's a straight and narrow path.II Cor. 1:18 says, If any man is in Christ he is a new creature. Old things have passed away, new things are here. Behold, you are a new creature and your body is the same, but your spirit is new. You must renew it through the Word of the Lord. All things are new, nothing is held back that is not known to the Lord. He is so very proud when we make Him our Lord and Savior forever.The Lord is saying He has given us gifts to take to the people who need him and help them get healed up and delivered. It is free to those who want it. Free gifts to his children to take to the world and help get his people unslaved. He loves everyone so much that He has given us his gifts to do this.

Happy New Year - Lisa Patterson

Let us all give thanks for the things the Lord has done for us this past year. it may or may not have been the way you thought. But he does not do things in your time frame. The Lord is good and His mercy endureth forever!!
Let us take time to tell the Lord what we want Him to know and how we feel about Him. For he want s to know how we feel about him. For He careth for you even when you think there's no way out. Many have been there and all are loved by Him, who made us in his own image. Psalm 139:14, I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Sometimes it takes something like an injury or a sickness to remind us of the masterful design that we carry around in our bodies. Focus your mind on Jesus and his wondrous love for you and how detailed you were made. Let Him life your heart to grateful worship no matter what happens. Many of us suffer the pain of abandonment, rejection, and betrayal. Despite all this, through Christ we can understand the compassionate, and enduring nature of true love. You must remember you are loved by God. Jesus said so with His life that He gave us. No matter what the enemy tries to throw your way, and he can certainly do it, the Lord is bigger and stronger than anything he could try to do if you trust Him. But you must trust Him no matter how hard it may seem and as though nothing appears to be working. The Lord is always at work for those who call upon His name. He loves everybody saved or not, sick or not, or whether you believe in Him or not. because you cannot make yourself anything you aren't. It doesn't work that way. He is God and loves us all.
Remember, the Helper, the Holy Spirit, will teach you all things. John 14:26. The Apostle Paul had many Helpers in his work of ministry. Helping is a spiritual gift, according to I Cor. 12:28. Paul listed it among the gifts from the Holy Spirit and are given to believers in Christ's body, the Church. The gift of "Helps" is as much needed as the others that are listed. If Jesus called you to help in the Church, a person who Helps the Called, then you are to do it and do the best you can with your hands. Even the Holy Spirit is called a "Helper" Jesus said, the Helper, has gifted you, let Him use you for his honor. If you play an instrument, teach the children, read to the elderly, lead a class, work in the kitchen, teach Bible School or a class, you are a Helper in the body of Christ. There are many other parts to the body and you have to ask Him and discern which one it is you fit. you cannot make yourself something He did not make you. For He is the one who bestowed the gifts you have in you, called to the ministry or not. But everyone who has been saved has a ministry. See where you fit in the body of Christ for the New Year and let Him use you to the capacity He chooses.For he made us and there is no other. Do not be tricked by the enemy saying you can do anything you want.
This is Lisa Patterson with the Good News the Jesus Loves You and wants you to come to Him today. Time is short so do not put it off any longer and let the enemy make you think you can just put it off tomorrow, for it may be too late!
