Great Is Thy Faithfulness!

 

Have you EVER MESSED UP?


Maybe not you, but I know I have...and if you’re like me-it’s always much to my chagrin! 


BUT...

—> in God is faithfulness!

—> in God is hope!

—> in God is mercy!

—> in God is compassion!

—> in God is goodness!

—> in God is salvation!


Lamentations 3:20-26

[20] My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. 

[21] This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. 

[22] It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 

[23] They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. 

[24] The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. 

[25] The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. 

[26] It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.


We ALL mess up, and for all of our faults and failures - GOD is there! 


Please take great joy and hope in the fact that God cares greatly about you. He wants you to embrace Him as He is embracing you...even sinful you! He want you to seek Him...yes, even from the vantage point of sinful you! 


—> Turn to Him. 

—> Run to HIM!

—> REST IN HIM!


He Loves You So Much!


Always remember, it was at our lowest and most depraved state He gave to us the greatest gift...Christ our Redeemer! 


Romans 5:8

[8] But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.


Hallelujah, what a Saviour!


“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.”


Blessed Beyond Measure,

Pastor Justyn Smith

A Surprise Alaska Trip

Image
A somewhat last minute trip to Alaska came up and we jumped on the opportunity. This whole trip was designed to surprise a youth pastor in Fairbanks, Alaska for faithfully serving for 20 years as a youth pastor. My girls couldn’t go due to how fast the trip and turn around times were, but it was a blessing to get to visit Alaska again so soon. Here are some pics to recap the trip: Denali and view from the air! A beautiful Alaskan day in the valley. On my way to Glennallen from Palmer to preach God‘s word! One of the games we played to surprise the Youth Pastor was called “the price is exactly right.” He is sitting on one of the gifts the people blessed him with! Another beautiful Alaska travel day! I had the privilege of going to the Alaska State Fair with my sister-in-law, my niece and my two nephews! I enjoyed laying the dining room floor flowing from the kitchen that was remodeled in July. I also got to install a sink and a dishwasher at another location. It was a busy but blessed t

An Audio Witness

  An Audio Witness Attention Pastors, Evangelists, and Teachers of the Word! Start being an  audio witness  of what God has engraved within your heart! It's easy, and It doesn't take much time to establish. On average, I typically spend 1/2 an hour a day/6 days a week establishing my daily audio witness called  "The Preacher's Push."  This name was birthed in my mind and heart during evangelism. However, it's influence never came into full swing until this past year. The reason I am posting this blog is to simply show others (who have inquired) how I do what I do that they may establish a similar setup to "exhort one another daily" from the Word of God! First,  PRODUCING  - there are 3 different setups I have used in the past to establish an audio witness. Knowing that there are plenty of other excellent options for your consideration, I'll spend my time here with what I do know. (The following are just examples of this preacher experimenting wit
