Words of Encouragement from Dr. C. Yvette Brock, Pastor
During these uncertain times, there are some things of which we can be certain: God will always love us. (1 John 4:9-10) He will protect us. (2 Thessalonians 3:3) He will provide for us. (Matthew 6:31-33) He will always be with us. (Deuteronomy 31:6) He will answer you. (John 15:7) He will give you peace. (John 14:27) He will strengthen and guide you. (Psalm 32:8) To fully experience God’s promises we must believe that He is faithful. God is Spirit and His ways are higher than ours. His time is different from ours. While we are dealing with the challenges we face, we need to remember that Scripture reflects God promises us these things, but not as the world’s perception of them. These are spiritual promises. While there are wars in our lives and the world around us, God’s peace is a calming peace, which we can experience in our hearts, even while the storms continue to rage around us. This is because we have faith that our God is greater than the evils of this world. When we expectantly pray for faith to receive these spiritual blessings, without doubt, we will eventually receive them. The Scripture instructs us to wait on the Lord and be of good courage, and He, in turn, will strengthen our hearts.(Psalm 27:14) We know that all healing does not come on this side of life. (People die, suffer, etc.) But we stand on God’s promise that in His Kingdom, there will be no more crying, sickness, death nor war. (Revelation 21:4) While we are going through our trials here on earth, God is with us, and when we trust Him, even if we are physically sick, hungry, lonely, homeless, or victimized and suffering in any other way, no matter how drastic things are or may become, we realize that God is still working things out for our good (Romans 8:28) and He is perfecting everything concerning us, (Psalm 138:8) even when physically we can not see this. Jesus came to heal, save, and forgive the lost and sinner. (John 3:16). When we confess and accept Him as our Lord and Savior, we are able to walk in the Spirit, a change from seeing and perceiving only physical things. In order to receive these promises, we must be born again, baptized with the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2:38). Otherwise one is not able to receive the abundance of God’s promises amidst the chaos in our present world. There must be a close relationship with God if one is to experience the fullness of joy which comes only through faith in God and His promises. (Hebrews 11:1)

Holistic Ministries Inc. hopes to fellowship with you. We hope you will join us very soon to worship, fellowship, and learn of the goodness of Jesus. We believe salvation is an individual journey and that God’s people perish for a lack of knowledge. Jesus came to set us free; His burden is light and His yoke is easy. He already paid the cost for our salvation - when you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that He is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead, then you are saved! (Romans 10:9)
