MY God is in Control…
“I love you, Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress & my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield & the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, & I have been saved from my enemies.” ~ Ps 18:1-3
Notice the ownership David has over his relationship & trust in God. We need to have confidence in OUR God. Claim God’s words & promises over YOUR life. Trust Him & put YOUR life in His hands.
Praise Him at ALL times! Through the good & the bad. He is worthy in ALL situations!
He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands…
“The earth is the Lord’s, & everything in it, the world, & all who live in it;” ~ Psalms 24:1
God is in control of every person, creature, storm, & situation on this earth right now & forever. He has us in His hands.
Stay in the Race: Mario Kart Edition
Opening:
Growing up I played Mario Kart pretty competitively against my family members, but I never saw it as more than an ordinary game. The other day as I was driving to work Jesus spoke something to me. He showed me the resemblance of this simple game to our life on earth as Christians. I took out my phone & spoke all these words onto a recording which turned out to be two minutes long. Later during the week in quiet/prayer time I put the words to paper. God took those two minutes & overflowed them into this bible study. 3…2…1…GO!
