For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. (Psalm 84:11)

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    One way God shields us from buying the wrong item is everything about the object will be wonderful, but just one "little" thing will be off, keeping us from making that purchase.   God is in us and leads us and guides us and protects us and teaches us and even shows us things to come.   Don't compromise.   A few years ago, I was considering purchasing a new car after my old car had been run into by another car.   I had not looked at cars in several years and found the sticker price shocking.  By 1985, cars had gone up to the range of $22,000.  It would cost $600 dollars to repair the side of my car.  I had the $600 but did not have $22,000.  God had shown me to purchase only those items I could pay in full for so I had the old car repaired and began putting money aside for a new car.   God's yoke is easy and HIS burden is light.   God says to HIS people:     Deuteronomy 28   9 The LORD shall establish thee an holy people unto HIMSELF, as HE hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God, and walk in HIS ways.   10 And all people of the earth shall see that thou art called by the name of the LORD; and they shall be afraid of thee.   12 The LORD shall open unto thee HIS good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in HIS season, and to bless all the work of thine hand: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, and thou shalt not borrow.   13 And the LORD shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:   💥💥💥💥💥   * For writings on additional subjects, click here:  Jesus Ministries Exhortations Blog
