Monday’s Marinade – Don’t Move

Monday’s Marinade is provided to you as a means of “soaking yourself” in the hope-filled Word of God at the beginning of your week. 

There is an account in the Bible about the blind men who came to Jesus asking to be healed:

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, screaming loudly, “Have mercy and compassion on us, Son of David (Messiah)!”  When He went into the house, the blind men came up to Him, and Jesus said to them, “Do you believe [with a deep, abiding trust] that I am able to do this?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.”  Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith [your trust and confidence in My power and My ability to heal] it will be done to you.”  And their eyes were opened. ~Matthew 9:27-30 AMP

Rest in knowing that God can be trusted. He wants you to believe His Word is true. He doesn’t want you to move from the stability and power of His Word.

Monday’s Marinade – Happy Camping

I’m not much of an outdoorsy kind of person when it comes to camping. Even though I enjoy being outside and taking in the beauty of nature, I don’t necessarily want to sleep in the great outdoors. If I had to sleep in a pup tent, I would not be a happy camper. I’d be worried about insects that sting/bite, creep-crawly bugs invading my personal space, and the possibility of larger animals coming into my camp ground.

But today, God has been showing me how I can be a happy camper when I camp out in His secret place.  I don’t have to worry at all! I would not have to be concerned about stinging and creepy enemies of my body, mind or spirit invading my personal space. In His secret place, there’s safety, provision, and joy! That’s where it gets much easier to be focused on His love for me. With Him, I can rest. With Him I can simply enjoy life, knowing He cares for me and that I’m in good hands.

What about you? Are you a “happy camper”?

Happy camping
