Dec 7, 2025 – Presence

Theodore Roosevelt – “Believe you can and you’re halfway there.”

Streams – “The greatest victory of faith is to stand at the shore of the impassable Red Sea and to hear the Master say, “Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you  (Ex. 14:13), and “Move on” (Ex. 14:15). As we step out in faith, without any sign or sound, taking our first steps into the water, we will see the water divide. Continuing to march ahead, we will see the pathway open through the very midst of the sea.” I’m marching ahead with this new business idea….trusting You, Lord.

Prevail 341 – 1 Peter 5:6-7 – “So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.”

JA – “My loving Presence is the solid rock on which you can always stand – knowing that in Me you are eternally secure.” That is the only way I can take this next step….

Power – Matthew 7:7 – “Keep on asking and it will be given you; keep on seeking and you will find; keep on knocking [reverently] and [the door] will be opened to you.” I kept asking, I hope in reverence. I’m walking through this open door, Lord, trusting You to go before and with me.  Joyce points out, “The truth is, if you spend time with God, He will multiply what you have left…. you will end up with more time than you would have had by leaving God out of your busy schedule. At this moment, you are as close to God as you want to be…. What you sow, you will reap…. He wants you to find more peace and joy in His presence.”
