Wig’s Word of God Today 8-7-2011
It is not that the Word of God has failed. Romans 9:6a
Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.” Matthew 14:27b
1 Kings 19:9a, 11-13a, Psalm 85, Romans 9:1-6 & Matthew 14:22-33
Paul reminds us today in Romans that God is the God of all people Who sent His only Son to die for the sins for all once and for all. Through His Mighty Word God has given us the peace we search for in life to accomplish living a life of faith, charity and love. The Word of God will never fail for it is the Truth of God’s love to guide us. The Word of God gives us hope. The Word of God gives us pleasure. The Word of God gives us the Way to be in communion with our LORD through all obstacles in our life allowing us true inner peace. Practice is studying God’s Word. Praying is trusting God’s Word. Proclaiming is sharing God’s Word. The Word of God will never fail even in the darkness of our greatest sin. The Word remains constant for all Eternity. Trust your life with it. Amen.
When we learn to live in Trust, we take chances to accomplish God’s Will. The Disciples witnessed Jesus walking on water in the midst of chaotic waves and wind yet Peter trusted Him so much he stepped out of the boat to go to Him. When Peter kept his eyes fixed on Christ, he walked on water in a complete trust but as soon as he took his eyes off Jesus he began to sink from the loss of faith. Our lives are no different for when we trust Jesus with everything and keep our eyes fixed on His Truth, we can accomplish everything He sets in our way. I’ve heard it be said, “God never gives you more than you can handle.” I say when we live for God in everything knowing we are forgiven by His Son’s death on the Cross, we live in Trust by keeping our thoughts, actions and deeds fixed on Christ’s Truth. Believe Jesus’ own words, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”
So we ask in prayer: Dear God, we pray today to always have courage by our Trust in Your Word. We pray today for special intentions of family needs. We pray for peace and courage to face the difficult times we live in. We pray these all in the Name of Christ Jesus. Amen.
God Bless His Truth for America,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”
Faith is Trust the Words of His Mouth
Walking on water without a care
The Disciples looked up causing a scare
Trust in Him Peter did dare
Walking on water fixed in a stare
Peter began to notice the waves and wind
Taking his eyes off Christ to defend
His own fears of trust began to waiver and die
As he sank in the water letting out a cry
“LORD, save me” he yelled out to touch
The fingers of Christ he failed to trust
“O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
Faith is trust the Words of His Mouth
