My first encounter with this verse was as I was boarding a jail bus after court and a baliff guarding noticed my bible and told me "each of us has a place in there and his was Roman's 13" To look at him you never would have guessed him to be as source of bible knowledge but as Jesus told Peter, he would get the rocks to preach to him.
This verse caused me to hold church services twice-a-month for over a year during my last prison term.Prayerfully my last.

I love the book of Psalms... reading Psalms, calms me when, Im upset..

Psalm 91 is one of the best place in the Bible it's help a lot just like when a child ran to his parent for something above him or her they help him/her tru, psalm 91 always put me tru in many things when ever I read psalm 91 I see and I witness the glory of God.

There is safety in walking before God. Also, you are assured of divine guidance because He not just Alpha ,but Omega. God has already gone ahead of you and arrived at the destination He is taking you. He knows all the booby traps on the way so He can safely lead you there. The question is: How pliable are you in God's hand? To what extent do you yield to the control of His Spirit? Ask God for grace to walk blamelessly before Him until He takes you home.

this is the Beliver's song of hope and victory. Not only will those that oppose the doctrine of Almighty God be destroyed but those that ridicule His belivers will be silenced and put to shame.This is the hope and victory that every beliver inherites from God by His grace and it is secured by His righteousness which is imputed into them from God. This is the Almighty God's promise to Israel of the coming of the Messiah and it includes the gentiles. For the ancient Israelites it means that Jesus was coming...for the gentiles Jesus came, He died, He rose again three days later and He is soon to come again! Hallelujah!

Yes you have to pay tithes even on a fixed/low income. Trust in the lord with all your heart and he will meet your every need I'm a witness to that and I can say I'm disable and when I was putting my trust in the Lord and paying my tithes I can truly say I had more than enough to pay bills,eat,and buy every thing I needed for my household. faith works well with hope

Halleluyah.....this is my chapter of the year 2014,God has just ministered to me thru this chapter,the assurance of greatness in my life.....glory to Jesus Christ!!!!!!

I have complete 100% confidence in the word of God and especially James, the entire chapter. We know that God honors faith, especially the faith of a child and since He is our heavenly Father, not like our earthly fathers who one time or another broke promises made to us. My wife has dementia and modern medicine tells you that there is no cure.I know without a doubt in my heart that God will heal her because He said He would in James 5, verses 14 & 15 and many other places in the Bible.This is His will, His revealed will that she be healed and with his grace and patience IT WILL HAPPEN. God cannot lie! Let's not look at what the world says about healing, that there is no cures for our disease. Jesus is above man, Satan and our own doubts. Don't listen to what the world says....Jesus is the author and perfector of our faith....Trust in Him.

It took the blood of Christ to cleanse me. Now I am saved by grace through faith. Now I am as white as snow.Praise the LORD.

May the Spirit of the lord reighn 4ever and ever as the name of God being glorified

I am a true product of God endless Love and Faithfulness. When i remember how He set me free from lusts i truly believe He can do it for anyone who is willing to accept His forgiveness. If God did not spare His only Son but gave Him up for a wretch like me, it is obvious He can do it for everyone that believe. The Bible says in 1 John 1 verse 9" If we confess our sins, He is just and faithful to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

I couldn't figure out why my husband stayed away from me. Then God keeped reminding me of this verse today. Now I see. I had been bitter about the way he was living and I complained constantly, I'm with Gods help am going to stop this complaining and love him no matter what he's doing. (I don't like to be around anyone who complains. So why would he? ) Hope I've helped someone Amen

The enemy is attacking the families but I will not lay down I will cry out to the Lord with all I know I have been with my husband for 28 years and I have 3 kids and I have called on the Lord to fight my battle and save my marriage. I am putting my trust and faith in the Lord and calling upon this scripture every time confusion tries to take over my thoughts and lead me down a path of separation the Lord promise me the desires of my heart if I seek after him and I am running to the Lord.

Though all flesh is grass, I still feel that David is a shining example of faith for every believer. This passage exemplifies his full reliance upon the Lord. His close walk with God has left him with a confidence that shines through.
As a child of God, forgiven and paid for, I long to be a man after the heart of my Lord and David's ensample to the flock has much good. I know that it is impossible to please God without faith and that is exactly what it was about David that pleased God... his full trust on HIM.

so many times in my walk with god he has shown me over and over again that he is god and god alone. he will deliver in his time not ours. Although we must pray for our enemies especially when they hurt us.. god ask us to lay our burdens upon him so we dont get distracted by the enemies schemes and one thing god has done is to protect me even when i didnt want to be protected... Lord I Thank you and I WILL WAIT ON MY CHANGE...

most of the comments talked of trousers for men and skirt for women these are dress
code for a particular nations of the world here in Nigeria a tribe called Irobo their men wear wrapper and shirt especially for an important occasion, while some tribes like Yorubas and Hausas forbid their men from wearing wrappers, cloth is meant for covering nakedness.and that was what did when Adam and Eve were naked. Let your heart be right with God whether trouser or skirt God looks first into your heart.

deuteronomy chapter 8 was given to me in a dream in the year 2000 and it has been working for me, serve the lord and be bless and all the blessing in the chapter is real in my life and also in the lives of those who serve God will see the hand of God doing great and mighty things, just fear and serve him.

Lev 19:2 enjoins us to be holy for God is holy Romans 12 :1&2 also tell us to present our bodies a living sacrifice holy acceptable to God and be not conformed to this world. The word of God also tells s to flee fornication for no fornicator will inherit the kingdom of God. Matt 5 tells us that if a man lusts after a woman he has committed adultery already with her in his heart. You judge from a sincere heart, how can a woman wear trousers without looking sexy no matter the design.
only God knows the no of men that woman would have seduced a day without her knowing it. The word of God also says we should flee the appearance of evil. Even if is a very tight skirt or dress that a woman wears and it outlines her figure and becomes revealing it can become seductive and she has to flee that . God is not mocked whatsoever a man sowed he shall surely reap .Modesty is the watchword .Mind u in these last days the devil has invented so many things including ungodly fashion in order to derail christians and drag them to hell so beware and be sober. The word of God is full of enough instructions to us to know the mind of God concerning all aspects of our lives so there will be no excuse for any one who dresses in an ungodly manner

God is a spirit and we must worship God in spirit and truth. God can take the black sheep of the family , he can take the man from under the bridge, he can take that lady off of that late night street corner and raise us up and be the head and not the tail. He will raise us up out of the gutters and set our feet on solid ground. I have seen the transformation that God has done in my life. He has cleaned me up from the bad things that I use to do. He has given me his word and did a mighty transformation in my life and I give all of the honor to God. So don't ever think that you are in a place that God cant pick you up out of. He will go to the lowest parts of the neighborhoods and pull us up out . God will clean you up and you will have the heart to serve him . S yes he will raise up the ones that people turn their nose up at , but guess what after he is done with us cleaning us up and giving us his word our light will shine God said we will prosper as our souls prosper. So as we prosper in the word and change from glory to glory and walk in the spirit and not in the flesh God will start opening the door to have nice things as well. we are royalty because our daddy is the King of Kings. So if we are his children then we will have the promises and the blessings of the most high.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivereth him, all of them! What a year, 2013 has been, full of great blessings and testimonies- and also in the course of it, in a way that you won't imagine,afflictions did manifested, but yet, one can't but be thankful that God mercies and lovingkindess standeth sure-they are in fact forever certain! His divine faithfulness endures throughout all generations. Hallelujah! Hosanna to the Holy One of Israel, He is forever worthy of praise and adoration. May God's name be magnified and glorified forever and ever. Amen! Peace in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the Saviour of the world.

We should accept the love we feel in our heart of hearts. Without trying to describe it. The inate sense of oneness, meaning that we are not alone, is a constant current educating us through instinct. If you aknowledge the love of God feeding your soul and leave it as such, then Heaven herself will open the gates to bliss.

Thank you LORD for the encourgament. Thank you for bringing Christ into my like with the assurance of the Holy Spirit, and signs to help me stay full of faith!
Bless the LORD oh my soul!

A comment on Ephesians 6:11, When we put on the whole Armour of God and than we will be able to do what David wrote in Psalm 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Jeremiah 29;11 Isn't it good and comforting to know how the story ends, Gods way not mine. As Christians, we are living Gods plan for our lives and he has it well in hand. We have learned if we are willing to sit back and ride a while, let God drive.

Everytime i read this chapter,i found how our God is love,his love to us is beyond comparizim.

The best thing to ever set my focus on is The Lord Jesus Christ! My heart is truly fixed when the target of my thoughts is on Him. Peter walked on water when his heart was fixed. The servant of the Lord has perfect peace when his mind is fixed. Confidence, contentment, and concern for the lost is just a few of the fruits of having a heart set on God.

At this point all I can say is I"m blessed to have been lead to this reading.I want to know the Lord God by doing the correct things he ask of me and the only place I can find that answer is in the bible.Ill keep searching through any and all books I can find.

Job a very blessed man,whom love GOD had everything. At the end he lost it all but through all of that, he never blamed god, hated him nor turned his back on him because to the turmoil that had presented itself in his life. he began to praise him in the midst of it all. We as humans in this day and time wants to question GOD. we blame the devil for everything (giving him to much credit), instead of really sitting down giving GOD some praise and thanking him as we go thru the storm. God do allow things to happen in our lives to get our attention, to show you just who he is and what he can do and even sometimes to bless you with the best. Think about it!!! People often tell me girl you are a strong woman after all you have been through this year (2013). I tell them it wasn't me, GOD brought me through it all. Yes, Ive had the sleepless nights pillow wet with tears, loss of appetite, separation from people just to talk to GOD and I tell him Thank you GOD for helping me and bringing me through it all. I've had to bite my tongue when GOD tells me to close my mouth, shhhh. I've felt manipulated (they got the best/over on me). He turned a plenty of situations around for my good. THANK YOU LORD, FOR ALL YOU'VE DONE FOR ME. At the end of it all JOB knew who had him in the middle of the hand-GOD DID!!!!

God is Awesome and the True and Living GOD and He is the King of Kings Greatly to be Praise!!!

In May 2014, I will graduate with an MBA (Masters Degree in Business). It's been hard with classes like Economics, Statistics, Calculus, Finance, Forecasting, etc) and so, my mom gave me this scripture. It has carried me the entire time and will be the theme of my celebration starting with my invitations to my actual graduation party. I thank God that He's gotten me through this. I couldn't have done it without Him.
