U Gotta Leg to Stand On!

What a blessing to say "HEY" again...
Wednesday night I shared a thought with the church, re: AMOS 3:12.

The Word says, "as a Shepherd takes (snatches) from the mouth of the lion two legs or a piece of an ear..." I know I'll take this out of context but, I'll do the scripture no harm to say...
We were snatched out of the lion's (the enemy is as a lion) mouth by our Chief Shepherd and maybe we're just a leg and an ear. It looks like nothing is left of the lamb but, you do have a "leg to stand on the Word of God and an ear to hear the report of the Lord"...so if you can STAND ON THE WORD and HEAR WHAT THE LORD SAYS...you will be VICTORIOUS!

Don't let the devil emphasize the "left overs" after the battle and make you think there's not enough left for the Lord to use. I declare you have been redeemed (snatched) from the jaws of trials and temptations...and will be able to STAND ON and HEAR the RHEMA (God's specific word for your issues) even though you seem to be too small - fragile - weak - insignificant - torn - and only left with A LEG AND AN EAR!

You have been made KINGS AND PRIESTS and MORE THAN CONQUERORS (HUPO-NIKES) to rule and reign IN THIS LIFE by CHRIST JESUS!

SO QUIT WHINING AND GET UP ON YOUR "LAST" LEG, STANDING ON THE WORD AND HEAR WHAT THE LORD SAYS!!!

You're a blessing...you're redeemed and anointed with joy above your fellows...

thanks for the encouraging words... I've been feeling very discouraged since my last test for school...it is not easy going back to school at 42...but I've made it thus far and I am in my last 5 months before graduating...just when I was on my last leg...God used you to get through to me...
