His Grace is Sufficient
written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
Whatever situation I may be facing today, I know in my heart that God’s GRACE is sufficient! In all my weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. I have learned to rely upon the Lord…”For when I am weak, HE is strong”. It’s in Christ I find my Hope, my strength and the Grace to face another day.
So when your world is crumbling apart and you just can’t go on, remember…God’s Word says…
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. (2 Corinthians 12:9)
Our God is so very faithful and His promises are true!! So whatever your situation, give it to the Lord and then just simply trust Him. After-all He desires His best for you and yes…He will make a way!
Remember, Almighty God is the only one that can satisfy a weary soul! So when you are tempted to worry and fret…Look to the author and finisher of your faith! Jesus sees you. HE knows you. HE loves you!!!
May you be blessed by this beautiful song….

Daddy’s Arms
written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
Just as me, I’m sure you too have experienced disappointment, and rejection by others at times, which certainly makes it hard to ever trust again. But I do know this one thing…”God is Faithful”!!
When I place my faith and trust in the Lord, I know I will never be disappointed! HE has proven His love & devotion to me time and time again. He is so very true to His Word & will never abandon those who really want to know HIM!
So don’t be afraid to run to HIM like a Daddy. His arms are open wide and there you will find a heart filled with love that you can trust!
The eternal God is (my) refuge, and underneath are (His) everlasting arms. (Deuteronomy 33:27)
…I am the Lord; those who hope in me will not be disappointed.” (Isaiah 49:23)
“The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Those who know your name trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you. (Psalm 9:9-10)

No matter what I face or how I feel, I love waking up each morning with a song of Praise going through my mind. You see…all my Hope, my Joy, my Strength is only found in Jesus. “HE is Life”!
Over the years this scripture has become a cry of my heart:
“Oh Lord, for You…I am so grateful…Satisfy me in the morning with your unfailing Love, that I may sing for joy and be glad all of my days! (Psalms 90:14)
As I set here in my big ole easy chair, sipping my morning coffee, here is the song of my heart this morning….(Listen to this beautiful song below) What song are you singing??

Never Give up Hope!
“Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. For the Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer and enables me to climb to higher heights”. (Habakkuk 3:17-18) “Blessed is the on who trust in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him”! (Jeremiah 17:7)
Keep trusting and looking UP!! ~ Healing Rain to the Nations
Faith Exercised
written by ~ Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
Faith is like a muscle, it must be exercised to grow! The body’s Vital Organs and Skeletal System are protected by muscles. But, by not taking action and failing to exercise leaves one in a weakened condition, rendered helpless and vulnerable to accident & disease.
The same applies to your Faith! Yes the Word says…”Faith as small as a Mustard seed”, but remember… When that Faith is NOT exercised it leaves you exposed in a weakened condition, defenseless and susceptible to the attacks of the enemy!
So be aware…”The enemy prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour”! As the devil stalks, he is looking for “the weak in Faith”! The Word says…”Resist the enemy & HE shall flee”, but without exercised faith, you are in a weakened condition and no match for the enemy!
Resistance is found through exercised Faith in Jesus Christ. Faith is exercised on a daily basis and strengthened through “Prayer, Worship & The Word”. You see, the Lord desires that you really know HIM! Listen—HE is calling…“Draw near to ME and I will draw nearer to you.” And as you yield to the beckoning of HIS still small voice…tarry there. And there in HIS presence ‘talk to HIM and Listen’…As you will begin experiencing HIS ever abiding love, your Faith will soar to new heights!
An example of this kind of faith is Abraham…He spent time with the Lord. He did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” (Romans 4:19-22)
The Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen your (faith) and protect you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3) Just as Abraham, may you come to recognize the significance of exercising your faith…by spending time at His feet! For it is there our faith is strengthened and we are equipped for the battle! Keep in mind…The Lord does not force Himself upon anyone…it is a free choice. As for me… “Christ” has become an absolute necessity in my life!!
Pray, Wait, Trust…”Dear Lord, Help me to exercise the Faith that I have been given so that I will grow stronger each day.”
Be blessed by this beautiful song….

Let Go and Let God
Dear Friend’s, Don’t let a past of hurts and disappointments rule your life…Let the past GO…Trust JESUS!!!
This is His promise to you……
“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” ( Isaiah 43:18-19).
Whatever hurts you may have experienced or uncontrollable circumstances you may be facing, keep this in mind….Fear doesn’t have a chance when you stand strong in your faith, wrapped in the power of God’s Love! “There is no fear in love; but perfect love cast out fear” (1 John 4:18)
When all is surrendered into His perfect divine Will…behold all things are new! There is “resurrection power” in the name of Jesus!

Seeking “The Healer”
Written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
Throughout the years of my journey of silent suffering, I have found God’s Holy Word is Powerful, Tried and True. And yes, God is so very faithful to HIS Promises! Believe me, this is so very important when all else fails you and there is nothing else to cling to!
So if you find yourself in the midst of a faith challenging situation, I encourage you to be quick to run to the Father’s arms. Affirm your trust in His Holy Word and believing He holds your best at heart! Then begin laying down all your thoughts and idea’s about “healing” and surrender to a deep “personal relationship” with Christ.
His Word says “Seek Me, you will find ME, if you seek me with ALL your heart”! So as you cry out to the Lord, take time to listen closely for that still small voice. You will find the Lord is tenderhearted and compassionate and patiently waiting to talk to you….After-all He is very familiar with pain and suffering!
“He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar with pain. Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53)
Therefore, I encourage you to Worship the Lord in all His grandeur and majesty, for it is so important to let your focus be upon the “Healer”, not the healing!! And when you open your heart and give HIM all authority to be glorified in you and through you…don’t be surprised at what you may experience! As you stand amazed in His presence, you too will find God honors a seeking heart as He begins to reveal His Power and Glory in a special way. For when we approach the Throne of Grace, seeking “The Healer”… Guess What!…..Miracles Happen!!
“He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” (1 Peter 2:24)
Jesus is indeed the Great Healer, He is the Great Physician!
May you be abundantly blessed by this beautiful song…. ~San

The Cry of the Cross
Written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
The CROSS…a gruesome form of Roman torture and death, which stands at the very heart of Christianity. The Cross is an authentic emblem that represents Christianity.
You see, God so loved that He gave His only Son to die for you. All mankind is born with original sin, which carved an abyss between God and man and nothing but the power of the Cross could reconcile man back to God. The message of the Cross is Holy Love, God’s immeasurable pure and selfless Love for man.
On this beautiful Easter Season…take time to think upon the Cross. Look past the pain and suffering, the nails, thorns, whips, mockery and ridicule. As you’re standing at the foot of the Cross, draw closer and look deeper into heart of the Cross, to the overwhelming passion that drove Jesus Christ to Cross as our Ultimate Supreme Sacrifice.
His overwhelming Love was demonstrated there on the Cross. He released the chains of death that bound you and gave you eternal life. He brings you out of the darkness into His marvelous light, from despair to hope, from feeling useless to a life having true meaning. He comes into your heart with perfect love and acceptance…making you a part of His Kingdom!
God Love’s YOU…He died for YOU…He arose for YOU…He saves YOU…He gives eternal life to YOU. There is NO greater Love!! As we busily prepare for Easter celebration, take time to set at the foot of the cross. Be still and listen closely and you too will hear….the cry of the Cross! No one could ever love you like Jesus!

Facing the Storm
written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations
Search me, O 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. (Psalm 139:23-24) True faith has to be tested and refined as silver & gold…In the midst of a howling sea of sorrow, pain, loneliness & despair, powerful waves well up to overtake me! In a distance I hear a voice calling my name!
I struggle in the swift currents to take a hold of a hand reaching out for mine! As it seems I’m going under for one last time, Suddenly I feel a hand firmly grasping hold of my arm, lifting me out of the angry sea and drawing me up to new heights. With the touch of His hand my soul senses a powerful love flowing, as my feet are set on a solid rock! This magnificent love enables me to stand unwavering on a mountain of Faith!
As I stand gazing beyond my present stormy sea, my joy is restored, my strength is renewed and the determination to overcome wells up within my soul! For Christ alone is my Salvation, My Hope of Eternity!
…And Once again I realize God has allowed my faith to be tested & refined! And once again I find HE is so very faithful!! All Glory to His Name! Listen to this beautiful song…..
