Ripples from Refreshing Hope Ministries on Vimeo. (Isaiah 55:10–11 NKJV) "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, So shall My word be that... -
For I, Yahweh your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, Don't be afraid; I will help you. Isaiah 41:13 WEBWe have a proverb we live by when performing live music: "If you hit a bad note, hit it good." Yes, it should be "hit it well," but that's the phrase I grew up hearing in South Carolin...

Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him, and honor him. I will satisfy him with long life, and show him my salvation.' Psalm 91...
Suddenly

If He comes suddenly, do not let Him find you sleeping. Mark 13:36 NIV
There was a time in our life when our business started failing and our income got less, and less, and then stopped. As the bills started piling up, we tried everything, but nothing seemed to help. We gave more, prayed more, fasted more, served more, tried to find any job possible and then as the last straw, we prepared to move out of our home.
After months of this, I no longer had the energy or will power to pray anymore. One morning during the week that we were preparing to move, I went into my prayer room and just sat there, mostly contemplating how much I would miss it. The Lord spoke to me that morning, and within twenty-four hours our life had completely changed for the better. That is how I became a pastor.
God closed the old out and brought in something new. It hurt to see the old go, but the new was so much better. God moves suddenly at what we often think is the very last minute. It is not to Him. He knew the day that the transition would take place and He was right on time. Our fear and worry were for nothing.
God knows where you are and He has the day marked on His calendar when your circumstance will suddenly change. Don't give up yet. We don't know the day or the hour, but the Father does and He will not be late, nor early. The change will come suddenly.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I pray that you meet my needs and move in my life. Draw me into a deeper relationship with You and give me a fresh zeal today, in the name of Jesus.

Amen. I can say that He has continually provided for our needs. I always have what I need. I just pray someday before we leave this place that my desire to be able to enjoy what He has provided will happen. Thank you Jesus for all that you have provided for what I have is yours to begin with. I love you Jesus, thank you. For those that have much less, Father I pray that you will meet their needs. Keep them warm, safe and fed just as you do with the birds of the feild.
Amen
Yes, Amen! Truly need God's discernment.
Amen. We should never be too sure of our circumstances, for we never know when Abba Father will change our path. We should not worry about this though as we need to only focus on life as one day at a time.
Thank you pastor for this message. I prayed this morning that God would speak to me through my devotionals. I needed to hear this today as it feels like all is about to come crashing down around me. I know His timing is perfect. It is hard while waiting. Thank you for the reminder.
Amen, Father i pray for strength as i go through these circumstances. I know you know what's happening,i know what is to come will be so much better.
How timely.
amen..God knows the best for me and He does heal me and have a plan for me.
Wow... fits exactly what I've been thinking anf praying about. Thank you Pastor, and praise You Lord for speaking like this.
And just on time for what I've been praying for....I want to re-locate to a better place with a better environment for my Son and myself. California is getting to be so expensive to live here, and too many people!! I know that with God's plan He will let me know what and where my next journey is. Amen
Thanks to Pastor Dion and Sylvia for all your hard work. God Bless you and have a Very Blessed Christmas.
