Zephaniah 2 (KJV)

3 Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek (humble) of the earth, which have wrought (fulfilled) his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness (humbleness): it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the Lord's anger.

11 The Lord will be terrible unto them: for he will famish (starve) all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the heathen (pagan, nonbeliever).

Feeling Spiritually Zapped, What to Do (Part 1)

Let us overcome.  We will succeed in dealing with our problems and / or difficulties.  We will not be conquered! 

Here are a few scriptures to help us overcome. Help us to be UNMOVED and UNSHAKABLE.  ~ Karmen

Ephesians 1(KJV)

15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,
16 Cease (terminate) not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;
17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation (discovery) in the knowledge of him:
18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened (aware); that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,
19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
20 Which he wrought (fashioned) in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,
21 Far above all principality (empire, dynasty, kingdom), and power, and might, and dominion (control, rule) , and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

John 16 (KJV)

32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.
33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation (oppression, persecution) : but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.




Exodus 32 (KJV)

18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery (faultlessness), neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.





Romans 12 (KJV)

21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.





1 John 2 (KJV)

12 I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.
13 I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.
14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.





Revelation 3 (KJV)

5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment (clothes); and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

Isaiah 26 (KJV)

2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.

3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.

10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.

11 Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.
12 Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.

John 3 (KJV)

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten (produced) Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

We are to testify the gospel of God's grace through Jesus Christ. Why people view the Bible as fire and brimstone is of their own guilt and Satan and his followers.

The Bible is her to protect not punish. It's not easy an easy task to train yourself to live righteous, that is why we have God's grace, mercy, Word and faithful children to help us along the journey. To give us examples on what to do and not to do. To teach us how to live godly on this wicked earth. - Karmen 

19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved (scolded).
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest (apparent), that they are wrought (created) in God.

Psalm 139 (KJV)

1 O lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.

2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.

3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.

4 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

5 Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it.

7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

8 If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there.

9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

11 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

12 Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

13 For thou hast possessed my reins ( the seat of the feelings or passions.) : thou hast covered me in my mother's womb.
14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.
15 My substance (core) was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought ({of metals} beaten out or shaped by hammering.) in the lowest parts of the earth.
16 Thine eyes did see my substance (core), yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members (people) were written, which in continuance were fashioned (formed), when as yet there was none of them.

God's Signature is on You

Like VanGough or Gaughin or Rembrandt has their signatures on their priceless paintings, so does God with every human being (including you) he made. Imagine- there is an signature somewhere on your body (naked to the human eye) with God's name on it. It says "Made by God in Heaven".

All of your offspring are already in the book before they are born, just like you were before you were born.

17 How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee.

23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:

24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
