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!

Stand In Your Love – Josh Baldwin

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…..

Stand Strong

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Yes, We live in a world of turmoil, but let us remember…Our God is greater than any of the world’s problems! No matter what you see, hear or feel…”do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” (John 14:27) Keep standing strong in Faith! Talk to the Lord and strengthen you prayer life. Study the Bible, Sing and Worship the Lord from the depths of your heart! Do not neglect doing so, for Prayer and Worship are our weapons of mass destruction against the devil! “Be alert and of sober mind. For your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” (1 Peter 5:8) Therefore, I urge you to prepare yourself “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.” (1 Corinthians 16:13) Let us “Live by faith, not by sight,” yet taking a bold and courageous stand for what is right in the eyes of the Lord (2 Corinthians 5:7) Oh that the world may know Jesus!…

As you walk faithfully before Him “may the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7)

Be Bold, Be Strong (with Lyrics)

Don’t give up!!

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

God knows your name, your nature, and your need today! But, the Father is searching the earth for hearts that are hungry, thirsty, and desperate for Him, seeking for a place where His glory may reside. Therefore, I encourage you; let the first steps of your day lead you into your “Sanctuary”. Enter in with a heart of worship and tarry there. Take the time to listen, to ask, to seek, to knock and to know, the heart of our Lord.

So no matter how discouraged you may get…Never give up!! Remember, just one word from God, one touch from our Savior, can transform a life forever!

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:6)

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

Listen to this beautiful song of surrender…..

“Give Me Jesus” by Jeremy Camp

 

Psalm 34.18a

God Cares

Do you feel as if your are loosing a grip on life? Have all your Hopes and dreams been dashed against a rock? Has your heart been torn to shreds? Does it seem there is no way out or you are going under for one last time?

In your darkest hour you may not sense that Jesus is near. But you can be assured, He is there listening to your silent cries and sees your every tear, waiting with open arm’s. He desires to be invited into the midst of your situation, to give you comfort and strength, wisdom and guidance, a hope for the future. And at the very heart of Jesus is a deep yearning to be invited into your heart as the KING of your life!

Do you realize just how much God loves you and cares about everything that touches your life! You see, YOU have been bought with a high price, your debt of sin has been paid in full at the Cross of Calvary…God gave His only Son Jesus to become your Supreme Sacrifice….That you might live eternally with Him. Salvation is a free gift for your taking… So Come, Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. (Psalm 34:8)

Christ is the only answer for the worlds problems…He is the Way, He is the Truth, He is the Life! “The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. The righteous person may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all;..” (Psalm 34:17-18) He loves. He cares, He waits with open arms….

God Will Make A Way | Don Moen

 

 

wing

This powerful scripture and one of my favorites I run to in trying times. As you read these scriptures below, I encourage you to insert your own name, making them personal… after-all God is speaking to YOU! Just listen….. ~San, Healing Rain to the Nations

Psalm 91  (make personal)

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

Surely he will save you (your name) from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.

If you say, “The LORD is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. “Because he (she) loves me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue him (her); I will protect him (her), for he (she) acknowledges my name. He (She) will call on me, and I will answer him (her); I will be with him (her) in trouble, I will deliver him (her) and honor him (her). With long life I will satisfy him (insert name) and show him (her) my salvation.”

Listen to this powerful song….I pray you are a Child of God….No longer a slave to Fear!!!  ~Healing Rain to the Nations

psalm 46.10

Facing Your Fears

Written by Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

Everyone experiences certain degrees of fear from time to time and there is nothing wrong with being afraid, but it’s important to not allow fear to control our lives. When fear comes in like a flood, the Lord certainly understands the cries of a desperate heart. When you’re faced with fear, be open and honest with God, cry out to HIM and tell Him you are afraid and you don’t know what to do. Then acknowledge to God that you are weak, but HE is strong and powerful. And then take you position of Faith, fix your eyes on Jesus and wait upon Him to act. Remember that battle is not yours—but the Lord’s!!

If you be still stand firm in faith, you will be totally amazed as you watch GOD’s perfect plans unfold before you. Don’t be afraid, don’t waver. March right out of that valley —GOD is with you.”

Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”

The Spirit commanded: “Be not afraid nor dismayed . . . for the battle is not yours, but God’s. . . Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you” (2 Chronicles 20:12, 15-17)

Be still and know that I am GOD. (Psalm 46:10)

Potholes of Life

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

These Scriptures have served as a constant reminder of the Lord’s Power, His Compassion and His Faithfulness to me! Even though the doctors were telling me otherwise…I choose to trust God’s word and allow my faith to soar to higher heights.

This is what God says about HIS Word…“So is My word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.”  (Isaiah 55:11)

He took up our (my) infirmities and carried our (my)diseases.”(Matthew 8:17) “He was wounded for our (my) transgressions, He was bruised for our (my) iniquities: the chastisement of our (my) peace was upon Him; and by His stripes we (I am) are healed.” (Isaiah 53)

My son, (daughter) pay attention to what I say; listen closely to My words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to a man’s whole body.” (Proverbs 4:20-22)

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.” (Proverbs 3:5-8)

These promises are just an example of many I found in the Bible. I printed them on post cards and posted them all over my walls, doors & mirrors. One of the first things I had to put into practice was learning how to guard my mind from stinkin’ thinkin’!! As fear would try to grip my heart, I began reading the posted scriptures out loud! (really loud so the devil could hear me!) I daily surrendered my all unto God’s mighty hands and planted my feet on a solid foundation of Jesus Christ. As I stood steadfast in Faith, I began rejoicing and worshiping the Lord with all that was within me! I learned to not to worry and fret, and to never go on what I seen, heard or how I felt. With a child like faith I began to simply Trust and Believe that my Heavenly Father had a divine purpose for my life and His perfect Will shall be done…In His most precise time!!!

Years have come and gone and I can gladly testify that my Jesus is Faithful…I am a victorious Over-comer!!

Yes, life happens and sooner or later there will be challenges and hurdles to cross. But you can prepare yourself! I encourage you to spend quiet time in the Word, in worship and in Prayer. As the trials come, you may find yourself searching for why’s & why not’s, but …”Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” (Prov 3:5-6)

As you face the impossible; Place your faith in the unseen hand of God. You will find the Lord is ever so faithful to all His promises. So when you hit a pothole in the path of life, remember, God has not forgotten you! He sees you, He knows you, He loves you and awaits with open arms!! Together you will get through this trial!!  Listen to this beautiful song…..
