What are my favorite verses of the Word of God?
Ummmmm... there are so many appearing on my mind right now! But I will only mention a few. I will choose 5, which may correlate with others (you will see later):
Isaiah 41: 10-13
10 So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
11 All who rage against you
will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you
will be as nothing and perish.
12 Though you search for your enemies,
you will not find them.
Those who wage war against you
will be as nothing at all.
13 For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.
will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you
will be as nothing and perish.
12 Though you search for your enemies,
you will not find them.
Those who wage war against you
will be as nothing at all.
13 For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you, Do not fear;
I will help you.
This was the first verse I read and with which the Holy Spirit baptized me at age 13. It was incredible ... I remember it as if it had been yesterday. There I knew that the Word of God was spirit and truth (John 6:63). Not just common words. I was sorrounded in a very powerful sphere of love. This is where I met God's love in Panama.
All the fears I felt vanished in an instant. How incredible is the Power of God ... The enemy knows that by our own strength we cannot defend ourselves before him, but he is afraid of God because He is the one who is invincible. This is a KEY verse to be healed of all anxiety disorders. I can speak with complete authority because I have been given the Kingdom keys, the hidden treasures and was healed of Obsessive Compulsive Anxiety Disorder. I never needed any antipsychotics after the day I was healed (year 2012). For those who have not been born again (John 3), all this is insane, because they cannot understand it (1 Corinthians 2:14), but this is why we should pray for those people. So that the veil they have is uprooted from their lives.
Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
Sometimes we keep things that we think are of great importance. We give so much value to material things, but what we do not understand is that everything we have is going to stay here. We will not take anything when we go to the Presence of the Lord. When I realized that God is the owner of all the gold and all the silver, that He is the one who gives but also the one that takes away if he sees that the blessing will harm us, (because there are times we do not endure the blessing); I was completely free. We are only stewards of his riches and we must ask God for wisdom to invest in the right things. I can invest my money in small details that I give with great love for other people, that I know will have an eternal impact on that person. Or also in the food. People love food. How many times did I gain my brother by inviting him to lunch, giving him passes to play in the national chess tournaments he loved? That softened his heart. He was not so hardened anymore. (Matthew 6: 19-20 Do not gather together for yourself riches of this earth. They will be eaten by bugs and become rusted. Men can break in and steal them. 20 Gather together riches in heaven where they will not be eaten by bugs or become rusted. Men cannot break in and steal them. Matthew 6: 19-20.) And if you think I always had money, you are wrong. There were many times where I had an extremely low budget, but there is no one so poor that has nothing to give. It's just a matter of priorities, and at that time, my brother's soul was my # 1 priority. My brother Luis Carlos has one of the most beautiful hearts I have ever known (Those in the spirit are eternal). That is why I feel so grateful to God because He chose me to lead him to his ways. Returning to the main verse, we must learn to keep our heart above anything else. Because of it come our motivations and emotions. We cannot give what we dont have. So before we love others, we should fill ourselves with love.
Matthew 6: 6
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you in public.
There are things we can only talk to God. There were many times when I had to get into bathrooms, cars, and uncommon places to cry out to God because I did not feel understood by anyone. And if there is something that I like about my Father, it is that I can tell Him anything, not with fancy words, but simply bare my heart. If someone disliked me, I told him without a filter, and God is so good that he still loved me. I do not believe in a God of misery, I believe in a God of rewards and compassion. God is faithful. Right now I do not think it's the right time, but maybe in a few years I will be able to share all the wonders God has made that were impossible for me. God is in the big, but so is in the details.
Luke 8:18
"Therefore consider carefully how you listen. Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what they think they have will be taken from them". NIV
I love it. He who says that things are not forgotten, is lying. I would like to share what Ebbinghaus said about "The curve of forgeting." After the first time we read something, the percentage of learning decreases, it is only what we pay attention that is retained in our short-term memory, that then passes to the long-term memory. My brain has always been unusual. I could say its 80% Word of God and 20% are pure dreams, hoping to become reality, with the help of God. And what I love about the Word of God is that it always speaks to you in different ways, regardless of what God told you years ago, it depends on the perspective and the moment you are living, there is no greater wealth than knowing the secrets of God. To know something that has not happened yet and then see how it manifests itself in your own eyes several days later? Amazing.
Luke 16: 10-11
10 He that is faithful with little things is faithful with big things also. He that is not honest with little things is not honest with big things. 11 If you have not been faithful with riches of this world, who will trust you with true riches?
True wealth is to have the Giver of blessings. Not the blessings themselves. It is very easy to be deceived by everything the world offers us. It's amazing how they manipulate us through our senses. And there is nothing wrong with wanting these things, but the reality is that the only thing that will protect us from all evil (at a very deep level), will not be the material goods or properties that we have in all continents, but the Lord Almighty. It is when we are full of his spirit, that everything else comes in addition. (Matthew 6:33) But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you).
God bless you.
