When We Are Overwhelmed – Anne Graham Lotz

When we are Overwhelmed…

I watched this yesterday and want to share it with you, these are the Bible verses:

Psalm 121:7-8,

“The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth and even forevermore.”

Psalm 46:1-2

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;”

Matthew 25:5

“But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.”

Genesis 6:9, 13, 14

“…Noah walked with God. And God said to Noah, ‘The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. Make yourself an ark…'”

Matthew 28:19-20

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Be of Good Cheer, I Have Overcome The World

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

John 16:33 BibleGateway

“And what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power ²⁰which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, ²¹far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.

²²And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, ²³which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.”

Ephesians 1:19-23 BibleGateway

You Have Covered My Head In The Day of Battle

“O God the Lord, the strength of my salvation,

You have covered my head in the day of battle.”

Psalm 140:7

My Aunt prayed this for my cousin, a marine during the Vietnam War. He came home safely, and is still married today.

I pray this protection over my brothers and sisters in the faith for the battles you face, in Jesus name.

All Those Slain Were Strong Men

“For she has cast down many wounded, and all who were slain by her were strong men.”

Proverb 7:26

Did you get duped by a flatterer? And you are a strong woman or man in faith?

“Forgive yourself and move on” says Pastor Joel Osteen

Don’t let the enemy rename you a failure, let God reclaim you His son or daughter.

“Go Shut Yourself Inside Your House”

Ezekiel 3:24

Thank Buenosia Carol for the picture.

“I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses”

Through this epidemic, there’s no difference for people who were shut in before; living alone, not driving, maybe not walking, having meals delivered to them. Now we’re all living like them. Could they have resilience that we sometimes lack?

Matthew 24:13, “Those who endure to the end will be saved.”

LORD Father, help us care for our neighbors and friends, keep communication open, bless them with comfort, provisions and encouraging words and songs.

He Will Heal Us

Thank you to James Wheeler – Pexels for Photo.

“Come, and let us return to the LORD; for He has torn, but He will heal us;

He has stricken, but He will bind us up.

After two days He will revive us;

On the third day He will raise us up,

That we may live in His sight.

Let us know, let us pursue the knowledge of the LORD.

His going forth is established as the morning;

He will come to us like the rain, Like the latter and former rain to the earth.”

“Also, O Judah, a harvest is appointed for you When I return the captives of My people.”

Hosea 6:1-3, 11

He Will Quiet You With His Love

Zephaniah 3:17

“The Lord your God in your midst,

The Mighty One, will save;

He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love,

He will rejoice over you with singing.”

“A time to tear, and a time to sew;

“A time to keep silence, and a time to speak.”

Ecclesiastes 3:7

Rejoice With Me

“…for I have found the piece which I lost” Jesus in Luke 15:9

“Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines; though the labor of the olive may fail, and the fields yield no food; though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls –

“Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.

“The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills.”

To the Chief musician. With my stringed instruments.”

Habakkuk 3:17-19

Extend Your Soul to the Hungry

If you extend your soul to the hungry
And satisfy the afflicted soul,
Then your light shall dawn in the darkness,
And your darkness shall be as the noonday.

The Lord will guide you continually,
And satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones;
You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

Isaiah 58:10-11

Open your mouth for the speechless,
In the cause of all who are appointed to die.
Open your mouth, judge righteously,
And plead the cause of the poor and needy.

Proverbs 31:8-9

Kathy’s Smile

“But as many as received Him, to them He gave power to become the sons of God.” John 1:12

“And if children, then heirs – heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.” Romans 8:17

Kathy, a sister in Christ, informed me that people with money need the Lord, too. Even more that people in material need.
