Luke 1:45 And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. I was reading the story of Mary going to her cousin Elizabeth after the angel appeared to her. When Elizabeth saw Mary the baby kept but the words in Luke made me really think. She tells Mary blessed is she that believed.This made me think how can God utilize me if I believe in his words that scriptures speak to me. We believe in the church that we can receive personal revelation so the next words spoken spoke to me how our performance in the Lord's work can be done through us which we feel the Lord has spoken to us, the words of the prophet that we hear speaks to us. How can believing in these words can God work through us for others? How can going about performing the work that he has spoken through us in ministering to others be a blessing? The more I read the scriptures the more I see how God works for us, through us, and for others from us. Just lik...

Mathew 1:18-25 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.  Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privilay But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unt...

Like 7:36-50 And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat. And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment. And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment. Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee. And he saith, Master, say on.There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will l...
