GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME; ALL THE TIME, GOD IS GOOD!

 

 I am here in THE TOWERS, my forever home.  That phrase “forever home” makes me feel what the adopted kids felt when I placed them

in foster homes and got them ready for a forever home.  I was supposed to be in Royal Oaks Nursing and Rehab Center for 90 days, but it turned out to be 150 days.  I’m here now.  Everyone in my Church family has been so helpful and taking care of me during this time.  The love and support of fellow believers for one another is one of the greatest ways to demonstrate the life-changing power of the gospel.

 

      In First Peter, the apostle was writing a letter to be circulated among the first-century churches and what’s now the country of Turkey.  In that letter, he compels his readers to do something that his friend Paul wrote about in Romans 12:13: “Practice hospitality.”  Peter said, “Love each other deeply . . .  offer hospitality,” and he told them to use the gifts God gave them to “serve others” (1Peter 4:810).  These are pure directions to all believers in Jesus for how we are to treat fellow believers.

 

      All of us know people who are in need and need someone to come alongside and show concern in Christlike love.  In God’s strength, we may be among the ones who are noted for being “so helpful.”

 

Prayer: Loving God, help me to look around for people who need an encouraging word or action from me.  Then, help me offer hospitality to them.

 

Me:  LORD, you know what I have been going through, and I can feel your presence through it all.  I love you, God.  I love you, God.  I love you.  I know you know where I am spiritually, but I need to know where I stand before you.  I only have a few years left, LORD.  I would like to know what the few years left will be.  I want you to use me as a helper, helping others to Jesus Christ.  Amen.

 

JESUS: YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH ME TRANSCENDS all your circumstances.  This is why you can praise Me and enjoy my presence in the midst of the darkest difficulties.  To find me in such times, you have to really exert your faith; I am always near. 

 

As a Christian, you live on two planes simultaneously: the natural world, where adverse situations abound, and the supernatural world, where I reign supreme.  Your trust muscles empower you to experience My Presence, even in your hardest times.  In fact, trials can both strengthen your faith and help you discern how much you actually trust Me.

 

I want you to work on strengthening your trust muscles.  One way is to fill your mind and heart with Scripture.  Another is to seek My Face continually.  Instead of getting stuck in introspection, turn your thoughts to me.  Make it a practice to affirm your faith in Me, whether you’re feeling confident or adequate.  Remember that your adequacy rests in your relationship with Me.  I make you ready for anything and equal to anything by infusing inner strength into you!

 

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. –James 1:2-3

 

Seek the Lord and his strength; seek His face continually. –Psalm 105:4

 

I have strength for all things in Christ who empowers me {I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses inner strength into me; I am self–sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency}.  – Philippians 4:13 AMP

                                          -- Sarah Young, Jesus Always, April 11

ME:  Thank You, Jesus!

 

I must thank y’all for reading this Newsletter.  If you are reading on Facebook, give me a thumbs up on email, got it!  I just want to know how many see and read it.  Jesus loves you, and so do I.

NOVEMBER 2021 NEWSLETTER

  November 2021 Newsletter Robert Lindenberger 3325 3rd Ave. Mims, FL 32754. 321-368 -7184 Expas65yaho.com “… God has said, ‘Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.’ So we say with confidence, ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. (Heb. 13:5-6). Life gets tedious and boring at times, and it is hard to keep on keeping on. Have you ever felt like giving up? Elijah did. The Lord had just used him to show the nation of Israel that the Lord is God (1 Kings 18). Yet, the threat of Queen Jezebel so alarmed him that he ran to Beersheba, 100 miles south (19:3). Then he walked another 150 miles south to Horeb, the mountain of God. Twice God asked Elijah what he was doing there (vv.9, 13). Both times he answered with identical words—“I am alone and left; and they seek to take my life” (vv. 10, 14). He had become so preoccupied with his own fears that he had forgotten what God had done through him at Mount Carmel. Despite his great victory, Elijah plunged into t

INTRODUCTION - MY VERY FIRST BLOG

Hello, my name is Bob, God is good all the time; all the time, God is good!, Lindenberger.  To introduce myself, I am going to post my 2019 Newsletter:   I love to tell the old, old story Of Jesus and how He saved me.  Another Christmas month is here, and I am changing the format of my newsletter. (but it didn't copy to here)  I do love to tell the old, old story because it makes me happy and blessed to hear and tell it over and over again. When Peter wrote his second letter, he said this, "This is my second letter to you, dear brothers, in both of them I have tried to remind you – if you let me – about the facts you already know: facts you learn from the holy prophets and from the apostles who brought you words of our Lord and Savior." (2 Peter 3:1-8)_ A professor where I went to college (EPC) used to say, "Keep your testimony current and alive. Tell it over and over again and never let it grow dim." So, I'm going to give you my testimony, whic

October 2021 NEWSLETTER
