Lord, you are my God; I will exalt you and praise your name, for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things, things planned long ago.

Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.

He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace. This grace was given us in Christ Jesus before the beginning of time.

Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

"Then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”

AMEN!

Good Mornin! Well, I had a great weekend ! My church had a Revival and 3 little kids got saved and accepted JESUS as there Savior, along with a coulple adults, How awesome is that ? Country Gospel Music Artist,, Mr Joe Arview was the speaker and man can that guy sing ! He has sang with a lot of different country music singers or played lead guitar in there bands , He is Blessed and gifted from God. I'm fired up again! I have my life to where it should be and workin to get better. Lets get to the message for the day. Most Things I Worry About Never Happen
“Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?” - Matthew 6:27
The best thing you can say about worry is that it does no good. The worst thing is that it does much harm.
I’m reminded of the little lady who said, “Don't tell me worry doesn't do any good. Most of the things I worry about never happen.”
Worry is absolutely useless. It doesn't cure any problems. It doesn't lift any burdens. It doesn't wipe away any tears. It never has; it never can; it never will! Worry can’t make you any taller, shorter, fatter, or thinner. It is so senseless, and it is therefore useless. But even worse, it is faithless. Worry is just the opposite of faith.
When we worry, we make God out to be a liar when God has said He will take care of us.God has never lied.. God Loves Yas,,, We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day,,, Your friend In Christ ,,, from The Riverbottom ,,, Ron Need prayer just ask ,, I'm Prayin for yas ,,, Hi Mr Brad ! I'm glad I'm back, I'm sorry that I let not only you down but God also. Love you all in Christian Love

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Good Mornin ! Mr Winter is about over with . Just think this time next month we will be picking Moral Mushrooms ! That means winter is over . Lets get to the message for the day and may it be a Blessing to your heart. Whatever He Says, Do It!
“His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.” John 2:5
We must obey whether we can understand or not. When Jesus was at the wedding in Cana, the servants had no way of knowing what Jesus was going to do. It might have seemed silly to them to fill pots with water. But Jesus’ mother gave them some very wise advice that we would do well to heed: “Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.”
It wasn’t a matter of whether they understood it or not, just that He told them to do it. The same Jesus who turned water into wine can transform your home, can transform your life, can transform your family, can transform your future. That same Jesus is still in the miracle working business. His business is the business of transformation.
Someone has well said that nature forms us, sin deforms us, the penitentiary reforms us, education informs us, the world conforms us, but only Jesus transforms us.
A lot of times your mind is going to say, “Well, that’s old fashioned,” or “That doesn’t make sense.” Never come to the Bible that way. Never parade the Bible across the judgment bar of your reason. Whatever He says to you, do it. God Loves Yas ,,, We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day,,, Your Friend In Christ,,, From The Riverbottom ,,, Ron Prayers Work Prayers bring you closer to GOD, Prayers for all yous reading this ...

Good Mornin My Friends ! There is an old Elder in my church named Lloyd that I have been having a one on one Bible studie with. I know JESUS had 12 deciples that walked with him and they taught and told people about him. Mr Lloyd is a modern day Deciple he sure knows his Bible. It is awesome to hear him talk and explain the different scriptures and the meanings of them. If you are wanting to learn more and get deeper in The BIBLE find you someone like my friend Lloyd and kick back and listen and you will find a lot of deeper meaning in GODS WORD. Lets get to the message for today,,,
Wilt Thou Be Made Whole?
“When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, He saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?” John 5:6
“Wilt thou be made whole?” That sounds like a silly question. It really does sound inane to ask a man who is sick if he wants to be made whole. But Jesus respected this man’s will just as He respects your will and every human will.
If God were to transgress your will, if He were to force you to do something you did not want to do, you would no longer be a human being. You would become a machine. So God gave you a will; and because you have a will, you must decide if you want to be made whole by accepting Him as your Savior. The offer made available to you today is whosoever will may come (Revelation 22:17). “Wilt thou be made whole?”
What kind of faith does it take to have our lives transformed? Faith that can see the invisible, that can believe the incredible, that can receive the impossible.
Doubt dreads to take a step, faith soars on high. Keep the Faith ! God Loves You,,, We Love You,,, Have a Blessed Day ,,,Your Friend In Christ,,, From The Riverbottom ,,,Ron ... Praying for you all!

"But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”


Amen and let us all praise his Holy Name!

Hello Everyone !! God is good ! All the time . He is the reason we have what we have . Everything that we have he gave it to us ! Thank You JESUS! You are MY KING ! Lets get on to the message for today. Joy!
“These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.” - John 15:11
Joy is the birthmark of the child of God. Every Christian ought to have conscious joy. And if you’re not living a life of joy, you’re living beneath your privileges. It’s so important that you have joy shining from your life in order to win the lost. If you want people to believe in your Savior, the mark of the authenticity of Christ in your life is the joy of the Lord Jesus Christ. They’re not all that interested in your creed or your doctrines. They want to know if it is working for you. And there’s nothing more attractive in winning the lost to the Lord Jesus Christ than the joy of the Lord that’s evident in your life.
I feel sorry for anyone who tries to carry the burdens of this life without the joy of the Lord to put a spring in their step, a beat in their heart, and a smile on their face. Thank God for real joy. “The joy of the Lord is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10). Love ,Happiness, Smiles equal JOY ! God Loves Yas,,, We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day,,, Your Friend In Christ,,, From The Riverbottom,,,Ron .. Prayers are talking and communicating with GOD and theres no need for a cellphone ,,All it takes is down on yer knees and your two hands put together ! and you don't have to keep saying { CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW ? }

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

Heres to another day, We woke up this morning, First things come first, Pray, Thank God for another day. and get started ! Lets go ! Resting in the Faithfulness of God
1 Corinthians 1:1-9
When plans are frustrated or life just seems to fall apart in some way, people often wonder, Has God deserted me? Why hasn't He answered my prayers? The Bible offers encouragement for such times by assuring us of the Father's faithfulness: "Know therefore that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God, who keeps His covenant and His lovingkindness to a thousandth generation with those who love Him and keep His commandments" (Deut 7:9).
Five attributes of God make this possible. First, He is omniscient, which means He knows everything, including our every need, thought, frailty, desire, and life situation in the past, present, and future. Next, the Lord is omnipotent, or all-powerful, so nothing is too hard for Him (Jer. 32:17). Then, He is omnipresent--since He exists everywhere at once, He is never beyond reach.
In addition, our heavenly Father cannot lie. Everything that He says is true and reliable. And lastly, God is unchanging. Our circumstances and the world around us may seem to be in a constant state of flux, and the Lord may even modify the way He chooses to interact with mankind in different generations. But His character is always the same. So when Scripture tells us that God is faithful, we can rest confidently upon that promise. God Loves Yas,,, We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day,,, Your Friend In Christ,,,From The Riverbottom,,, Ron ,,, Prayer is what we all need and you got it !

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Glory be to God !I had a great weekend . Got a lot of things done around the house. I put in a new ceiling fan ,,, Just like the box said 3 easy steps to install,,,Those easy steps turned into a 3 hour ordeal nothing lined up right , It wasn't easy ,,, Lets get to the message for the day. What About Our Salvation ? And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. (Romans 8:30 ESV)
“I can’t live that life.”
“I have faith, but am I really saved?”
“I messed up bad. God will never forgive me.”
Do these thoughts sound familiar? Many Christians face thoughts like these not just once or twice in their lives but multiple times every day. If you have thought these things or are thinking them now, take heart my friends. The battle has already been won. The second our lord and savior Jesus Christ took upon himself our sins on the cross, the victory was won.
If you are struggling with living a life in Christ or have done something that you feel to be unforgivable, know that Jesus has already cleansed you. Realize that though sin may invade, the victory is in Christ, and you are in Him!
Questioning your salvation? Know that the faith you have in Christ is powerful. Know that if you have been predestined, called, and justified, then you surely, too, are in a sense already glorified in heaven with Jesus. How you ask? Because it is a sure thing. God knows and loves you! Take comfort and strength from this fact, and know in your very being that the change you felt in Christ was a redeeming one.
Take comfort, therefore, in the knowledge that the victory has already been won. Why? Because it was thanks to a loving God who planned our salvation before we were even in the womb. Glory be to Him forever and ever. Amen.
Lean on Jesus today for your salvation and not your own actions/thoughts! God Loves Yas,,, We Love Yas,,, Have a Blessed Day ,,, Your Friend In Christ,,, From The Riverbottom,,, Ron ... Need Prayer ? Just ask , Prayers for all.

For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him.
