Dear Friends,
I am sharing as much as the Lord is allowing me to share today, but there is more! The point is Today, that God wants us to open our eyes to who God is and who Jesus is to us! Jesus is the Mustard Seed! Jesus is the Yeast!
And, the I type this, I also hear the voice say, Who does God say you are to Him?
Who do people want you to believe you are to them?
What is the radical difference?
As the Lord delivers this message to me to give to you, go to Daniel 6:5. They could find no wrong in who Daniel was according to men … they knew the only wrong Daniel could do would be against the law of his God. So, the people started a comparison in who they were. When they found a point to compare Daniel’s faith with their beliefs, they made a rule to try to bring Daniel in line with their thoughts; and to entangle him. But, Daniel was delivered by the same God of Today, Our God in Heaven!
As the world will try to change your mind to believe like others in the world want you to believe, you have been given a choice to believe what your heart says to you. Don’t let the mirror hold you back! Who do you see when you look in the mirror?
Friend, you are a person whom God loves. God sees value in you!
Yet, the one thing in this world is darkness, so that you won’t see the light of God’s knowledge appear…UNTIL you see! And it is then we believe! Right from wrong becomes clear; I can testify!
Who does God say you are?
Daniel 6:5 King James Version (KJV)
5 Then said these men, We shall not find any occasion against this Daniel, except we find it against him concerning the law of his God.
Who does God say you are!
Who do you say you are?
Who is Jesus to you?
Wow! These questions are just between you and who you are. If they are offensive, ask them anyway. Like if I am in a dark room, I am willing to trip over the obsticals to get to the light switch, so that I can see clearly to make up my own mind. This is the purpose of Hope in Today Ministries, Inc. We are here to shine the light of a message of Hope and His Name is Jesus, so we offer this gift to you in the Name of Jesus.
The focus of Today is who you are to God; and who is Jesus to / in you? If you don’t know Jesus, open your heart and tell God you want to believe. You see, even we can get in God’s way. Are there two types of pride?
A closed mind will never open to hear new understandings. An open mind is able to make a choice of what is good and right; and what does not line up with all we truly know and believe in our heart that knows. Look at Saul to Paul; the transformation was in the sight of the Light of Jesus!
Allow no one to convince you, but God. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life; and this message carries with it a light of God for you to hear! There is so much more, but this is the message for Today.
As you go into this Devotion Today, take with you this thought:
If you “Got the Seed”
If you “Got the WORD”
If you “God the Yeast”
If you “Got God!!! Then, Know the Word, Know God’s Will, Know Jesus, Know the Holy Spirit.
God is for you, with you and in you! Take the seed out of your pocket! Don’t hide your faith in Jesus! Plant it! The life is in the seed, because God put it in Jesus! Use it!
What will God do, if you do? Only God knows, but God is worth believing!

Coming On Down The Line, Part 2, Jesus Is, By Karen Rowe
Jesus is your gift of faith!
Jesus is your seed of faith!
Jesus is your yeast to rise!
Jesus came as the Mustard Seed and as the yeast to rise!
Friends, when we get this we will never be the same!
Once, I had a “Got Jesus” Bumper Sticker. The only reason I allowed it on car was because my daughter gave it to me. She has the same faith that bought it for me, that I had of Jesus to receive it!
Friends, when we receive this we will never be the same again!
God had the faith to give us – Jesus!
Jesus came as a Mustard Seed!
Some religious leaders expected the Messiah to come with the flaming sword – The Resurrected Jesus Yet to come. But they failed to see Jesus as Savior & Lord came 1st as a baby to die for us to become Lord over all — Jesus came as a Mustard Seed!
The Lord is teaching me to teach ~ Go beyond the “IF!” because, I am writing to you Today to encourage you that if you believe Christ Jesus in your heart, you HAVE the Mustard Seed of faith! AND if you confess it (faith =Jesus), your confession is of Jesus (the YEAST) that rises you in working Salvation!
Like if) you have a power tool, you first have to have the power tool (Right?). Then) you also have to plug it in (Right?). To use it ..
IF) you miss any of these steps, you make the power tool of non-effect to you in your life. Yet the tool still is the POWER!
God provides the Resources to access, like the tool is waiting for you to go get!
Personal ownership = Relationship Qualities!
If you plug up the power tool, God is the Source of Faith to use it!
Now what are some reasons you would prefer to use a hand saw for a big job OVER a power skill saw?
Fear?
Lack of Training?
DOUBT?
Different than you have always done?
There is more, but with Jesus confidence in you, you CAN!
Going beyond me to see Jesus in me is my ability to ACT better than me! Why? And here it is: Because, I can!
Just like the Got Jesus sticker served as a reminder to me that my driving represented Got Jesus. I discovered I could make better choices when I focused on Jesus and what Jesus would have me to believe. YES! In CHRIST, we can overcome doubt & fear that discourages us!
God wants to encourage you!
and to God be the Glory!
…till next time! Remember no matter how big your faith is; faith of God is always bigger than the mountain before you.
Integrity in Christ Jesus is like a flower that blooms from a seed that knew who it was, before it could see – If a flower could see; yet God knows it to be. It’s who you are. How much more valuable are you than a flower in the field? Fade not – It’s a spiritual thing!
