Quiet Time Thoughts
“We have a choice.We can fear God now in
reverential awe that leads to eternal salvation
ORfear Him later in
stark terror!”
Quiet Time Thoughts
We are possessed by what we value.
Value Satan’s things and he will claim you. Value
God’s characteristics and you are His.
“The Christian Life is one in which every participant has an
equal opportunity to be spectacularly successful.”
The Problem….….is never with God!
'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11

WARNING!“Well done, good and faithful slave; you were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things,
enter into the joy of your master.”Matt 25:21
God’s standard is faithfulness, not success!
WARNING!“Then you will call upon Me and
come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 'And you will seek Me and
find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.”
Jeremiah 29:12-13
Sincerity is critical!
WARNING!“if you have faith as a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there, and it shall move;
and nothing shall be impossible to you.” Matt 17:20
It is not the size or quantity of our faith but rather the object of our faith.
WARNING!“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.”
Matt 11:28
Jesus is the source and place of our rest!
The Reality of Triumph!God wants us to overcome our
spiritual limits.
Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall
be opened to you. Matt 7:7
If God promised it, it is achievable.
The Reality of Triumph!God stands ready to give His people
victory in every area of life!
Thou art the God who workest wonders; Thou hast made known Thy
strength among the peoples. Thou hast by Thy power redeemed Thy
people, Psalms 77:14-15
Even the obstacles that limit Him!
The Reality of Triumph!The promises of God must be claimed
and incorporated to our lives.
So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence
only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with
fear and trembling; Phil 2:12
God will not override complacency.
The Reality of Triumph!The rewards for striving for higher
levels with God are incalcuable.
More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of
knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish in order that I
may gain Christ, Phil 3:8
