Morning Mana

I will lift up my eyes to the hills, From whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber, Behold, He who keeps Israel, Shall neither slumber nor sleep Psalms 121:1 KJV

Higher Ground

Greetings in the name I love to hear, the name of Jesus! Those of you that know me I am a lover of the Hymns, The songs my parents taught me, the songs that we would sing as I was a young child growing up in church. Many of the songs are embedded in my spirit, they are the songs that motivate and inspire me to make it day by day and one of my favorite among so many is Higher Ground.

There are 4 Verses to this song, Verses that gives you the ability to fight the good fight of faith and the determination to press on in Jesus, To weather the storms of life, To take a stand against the enemy, To run on to the end and be saved!

Verse 1
I’m pressing on the upward way,
New heights I’m gaining every day;
Still praying as I’m onward bound,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Verse 2
My heart has no desire to stay
Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
Though some may dwell where those abound,
My prayer, my aim, is higher ground.

Verse 3
I want to live above the world,
Though Satan’s darts at me are hurled;
For faith has caught the joyful sound,
The song of saints on higher ground.

Verse 4
I want to scale the utmost height
And catch a gleam of glory bright;
But still I’ll pray till heav’n I’ve found,
“Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.”

Refrain:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith, on Heaven’s tableland,
A higher plane than I have found;
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

This song should be every child of God desire, to have their feet planted on Higher Ground, Thanks Johnson Oatman, Jr. for allowing God to inspire you to write and compose this song that would live much longer than you would. A song of Inspiration, A song of determination.

God Is With Us

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you. (Isaiah 43:2). There are times in our life when we find ourselves in difficult situations. Times when our faith is put to the test. We may even feel that God has abandoned us, and that we are all alone. When you feel that way remember that it is written; "I will never leave you nor forsake you." So we may boldly say: "The LORD is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" (Hebrews 13:5-6).

So when you pass through the waters of difficulty, and the flames of distress, know that God is always there with you. For, The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him. (Nahum 1:7) always remember that you are walking, hand in hand, with your Heavenly Father when those difficult times arrive, and that He Loves You very much because you are one of His beloved children!

Do Born Again People Sin Daily

I am fully aware that many teach that no man can live free from sin, that we sin every day, and that there is no one that does not sin every day he lives. One can see that this teaching is entirely out of harmony with the Bible by reading the above Scriptures. If these men sin every day, then they are sinners every day and there is no time that they are not sinners. If they are sinners all the time, then there is no time they are not under the penalty of the broken law, and they will be sent to Hell as sinners to pay the death penalty. They are not Christians or saved from sin any one day they live if they sin every day they live. Christ means nothing to them if they are sinners and if they cannot be saved from sin.

It is time that men wake up and stop listening to such teaching and begin to read the Bible and obey it for themselves. Naturally, no man that does not believe in salvation from sin can ever get saved from sin. If Christ came to save us from our sins and He cannot do it, then He has failed in His mission. If the New Testament teaches freedom from sin, then it is either the truth or a lie. If it is a lie, then we might as well throw the whole Bible away and have nothing to do with religion. Christianity, in that case, is a mere sham and a false religion, teaching something that is not true. If salvation through Christ is true, however, then these modern teachers of religion are false and no man can safely believe them. It is not right even to listen to them deny the truths of the Bible. It is a sin to support them in such a program. If Christianity is a sham, it is a sin to support it and its leaders.
