Hope For Today #220 – Faith Publicly Praises One’s Spouse!

Posted on October 3, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Publicly Praises One’s Spouse!

“Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also praises her: “Many women have done noble deeds, but you surpass them all!” Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the Lord will be praised. Give her the reward of her labor, and let her works praise her at the city gates.” (Proverbs 31:28–31, CSB)

Being married to the right person is MORE than enough for this life! God truly blessed Doc when He led him to her. And what an incredible marriage and ministry they have together. And, if you are anywhere near Doc or Kate, you will hear ALL about the other one! They love to honor and adore their spouses to the Global Glory of God! And that is the way it should be … according to God’s Word!

Hope For Today #219 – Faith Looks to One’s Harvest!

Posted on September 26, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Looks to One’s Own Harvest!

“There is profit in all hard work, but endless talk leads only to poverty.” (Proverbs 14:23, CSB)

Who doesn’t like something for FREE! During the Pandemic it seemed like most everyone had their hand out. Yet, the Bible tells us the way to success and wealth is a different path. And, that way seems less and less desired. While many people would rather someone else work and they receive – Sounds like what little kids do, doesn’t it? – the Bible teaches that God’s children work hard and enjoy the profits of their labors!

So today, if you are in need of a “faith boost,” give us TWO minutes and allow us to remind you of the supernatural power of your God!

Hope For Today #218 – Faith Avoids The Worthless!

Posted on September 19, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

 

Faith Avoids The Worthless!

“A worthless person, a wicked man goes around speaking dishonestly, winking his eyes, signaling with his feet, and gesturing with his fingers. He always plots evil with perversity in his heart; he stirs up trouble. Therefore calamity will strike him suddenly; he will be shattered instantly, beyond recovery.” (Proverbs 6:12–15, CSB)

Now, more than ever, we need to be making wise decisions as we seek to emerge from this Pandemic! The people closest to us will often determine our success or failure. Remember the old adage: “Don’t get your financial advice from your broke relatives!” The same is true today as we emerge from this mess! Choose the people you do life with very carefully!

So today, if you are in need of a “faith boost,” give us TWO minutes and allow us to remind you of the supernatural power of your God!

Hope For Today #217 – Faith Explodes In Happiness!

Posted on September 12, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

 

Faith Explodes In Happiness!

“How happy is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in his ways! You will surely eat what your hands have worked for. You will be happy, and it will go well for you.” (Psalm 128:1–2, CSB)

Happiness and Pandemic don’t seem to go together, do they? Yet today we discover that happiness is NOT “locked down” to our circumstances. Happiness comes from our choices! Happiness is watching the supernatural hand of God intervene for us because of WHOM we know, not WHAT we are experiencing!

So today, if you are in need of a “faith boost,” give us TWO minutes and allow us to remind you of the supernatural power of your God!

Hope For Today #215 – Faith Is Shielded By God’s Favor!

Posted on August 29, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Is Shielded By God’s Favor!

“For you, Lord, bless the righteous one; you surround him with favor like a shield.” (Psalm 5:12, CSB)

In the midst of the storm we either shine like lighthouses or we cower in fear! King Jesus has called us to be “the Light of the World!” The world needs His light so much more as things grow darker and more evil by the day. YOU are the key to enlightening YOUR corner of this dark world. How? King David again shows us the way by writing out His prayer … and we can use that prayer as a guide to become the Lighthouse of Hope and Help for the global glory of King Jesus!

So today, if you are in need of a “faith boost,” give us TWO minutes and allow us to remind you of the supernatural power of your God!

Hope For Today #214 – Faith Lives In Peace And Safety!

Posted on August 24, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Lives In Peace and Safety!

“I will both lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone, Lord, make me live in safety.” (Psalm 4:8, CSB)

People can be so mean to us, can’t they? And remember, almost always we have only one recourse: Go to God for our vindication! We have to cry out to Jesus for help! But how? King David of Israel gives us a great model to pray from … and we can see how he goes from frustration and anxiety to peace and calm as he prays. What a model for us!

So today, if you are in need of a “faith boost,” give us TWO minutes and allow us to remind you of the supernatural power of your God!

Hope For Today #213 – Faith Prays For One’s Offenders!

Posted on August 22, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Prays For One’s Offenders!

“After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored his fortunes and doubled his previous possessions.

All his brothers, sisters, and former acquaintances came to him and dined with him in his house. They sympathized with him and comforted him concerning all the adversity the Lord had brought on him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold earring. So the Lord blessed the last part of Job’s life more than the first. He owned fourteen thousand sheep and goats, six thousand camels, one thousand yoke of oxen, and one thousand female donkeys. He also had seven sons and three daughters. He named his first daughter Jemimah, his second Keziah, and his third Keren-happuch. No women as beautiful as Job’s daughters could be found in all the land, and their father granted them an inheritance with their brothers. Job lived 140 years after this and saw his children and their children to the fourth generation. Then Job died, old and full of days.” (Job 42:10–17, CSB)

Accusers can be such a pain in our souls, can’t they? And when we are going through misery, having several people attack us with their words seems the epitome of wickedness. Often we can’t wait for God to avenge us by dealing drastically with them. But what does God ask Job to do for his “miserable counselors” who have verbally waged war on him? God asked Job to pray for them! And WHEN Job prayed for them, God RESTORED and DOUBLED Job’s losses!

Hope For Today #212 – Faith Asks For God’s Gifts!

Posted on August 19, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Asks For God’s Gifts!

“Wisdom and strength belong to God; counsel and understanding are his.” (Job 12:13, CSB)

When life is falling apart, how do you pray? In the midst of our cousin Job’s despair, Job gives us the hint of how we should cry out to Jesus! We are to ask God for the 4 gifts He possesses and freely gives. While we may be in the dark as to what is happening in our lives, God knows and is willing to give us the answer if we will only ask by faith! (See James 1:5-8)

Hope For Today #211 – Faith Enjoys God’s Protection!

Posted on August 17, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Enjoys God’s Protection!

“Satan answered the Lord, “Does Job fear God for nothing? Haven’t you placed a hedge around him, his household, and everything he owns? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.” (Job 1:9–10, CSB)

So many times we simply DO NOT suffer like our friends and neighbors do! Have you noticed? One of the key reasons is what we talk about to: God’s Hedge of Protection! Even Satan knows he cannot do anything against us when God has hedged us in! What an incredible blast of encouragement this is!

Hope For Today #210 – Faith Pursues Prosperity For All!

Posted on August 15, 2021 by Dr. Matthew Lee Smith

Faith Enjoys the Supernatural!

“Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus. He was famous among the Jews and highly esteemed by many of his relatives. He continued to pursue prosperity for his people and to speak for the well-being of all his descendants.” (Esther 10:3, CSB)

While fear and being afraid is the trademark of the people of the devil, it is NOT a part of the people of God! We are called by faith, filled by the Holy Spirit, driven by the Prime Directive into ALL the World to ALL ethnicities! And we are EMPOWERED by the King of kings and Lord of lords to accomplish GREATER THINGS than He himself did!
