Thank you for listening to Koffee With Kelli! On this episode, I have a special guest that is sure to bless you!
John 15:1-11 Why isn't this rose bush producing any flowers? What does it need? Jesus is our source, we need food! Get into his word, and bear fruit. Just like I love my roses, God loves us. I'm not going to give up on that little bush, I am going to do all that I can to save it... but at some point if there is no fruit it will have to be cut down and burned - death. Do you understand? It's not to late... Blessings!
Acts 7:54-60 - The Stoning of Stephen. Saul was there, Paul... holding the garments of those who where stoning him. God used Stephen filled with the Holy Spirit to boldly testify that Jesus was the Messiah, that he fulfilled Old Testament prophecy, and the law. Stephen witnessed to Saul. He planted seeds in Saul's life. He died not knowing who Saul would become - the apostle Paul. You never know when you are being used. You may have the ball in your hands, shoot for the 3 pointer, and never get to hear the crowd roar as the ball rolls on the rim through the net. God is using you. I pray you are blessed and encouraged today!
Romans 5 - Trials build endurance and endurance character. I am definitely a character, but I love Jesus - what about you? It's not too late to start running with Jesus. He loves you! He died for you! In Romans 7 Paul, the author of the book, says the things he wants to do he doesn't, and the things he doesn't want to do he does. We are all sinners - but he still loves us and wants us to choose him! I pray you are blessed and encouraged!
Jeremiah 29:4-11 No matter what you are going through in your life, trust Jesus. Read his word, and be encouraged! Part of trusting him is being ok with our circumstances because we know he reigns victorious. I win because of am on the winning team, no matter where life takes me. AMEN! I pray you are encouraged, and blessed today!
Thank you for listening to Koffee With Kelli! In this podcast I discuss the consequences of a hardened heart towards God and the results that come from it.
Psalm 37:23 "The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand." Romans 8:15 "For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry 'Abba! Father!'" Psalm 139:8 "Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." Revelation 21:4 "He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, no pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. Run to the Father - your "daddy". to listen to Cody Carnes, Run to the Father: https://youtu.be/HTHS4W1bPj8 Be blessed and encouraged. He loves you like a daddy!
If you haven't read "Evidence Not Seen" by Darlene Deibler Rose, I highly recommend it. It's truly inspiring, and helps with perspective. Be blessed and encouraged!
Genesis 4:7 "If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.” God knows your heart. You can fool everyone around you, but HE knows (Psalm 139) Keep reading your bibles! I pray you are blessed, and encouraged.
Genesis 3:1-7 'Did God really say you must not eat from any tree in the garden?" Satan is still using the same tactics on us that he use on Eve. 1 Peter 1:1 "Peter an Apostle of Christ.." Know who you are. Get into the word so that you aren't deceived. Be bless and encouraged.
John 13:36-38; Luke 22:31-34; Job 1:6-12 Satan must go to God before he does anything. Remember that God is in control, even when you don't understand. God will bring you through the sifting, and use the trial for his Glory. Go and use it to strengthen your brothers! I pray that you are encouraged and blessed!
Jesus forgives, do you know him? Pharisee did not recognize who Jesus was. Luke 7:36-50 Anointing by the sinful woman. "... Therefore, I tell you, her sins have been forgiven - for she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little." The demons know who HE is. Demon-possessed in Gerasene. Matthew 8:28-34; Mark 5:1-20; Luke 8:26-39 "When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. He shouted at the top of his voice, 'what do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Swear to God you won't torture me!'" He loves you, you are worthy of his love! Natalie Grant - Clean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Idm7RlwrZVw Be blessed and encouraged!
Luke chapter 1 & Matthew chapter 1 Zechariah, Elizabeth, Mary, Joseph... God uses normal people for His glory. The key is giving Him control. Submission affects our attitude. It makes a difference in the way we see ourselves, and our surroundings. It affects our heart, our actions, and the words that come out of our mouthes. If I can submit to God, my whole life will be impacted. It's a daily decision to allow God to be the Lord of everything in your life (to submit), but it's worth it! Be blessed!
Matthew 28:16-20 16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations,baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” GO and make disciples (a follower of Christ), and BAPTIZE in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and TEACHING them to obey everything that I have commanded you. How do we know what to teach them? The Bible. Notice it also says EVERYTHING - we cannot leave anything out! The whole word of God is our instruction manual, our text to follow. Be blessed, and GO!
Job 42:4-6 "You said 'Listen now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you shall answer me.' My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you. Therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes." Thank you God for all that do, for the breath in my lungs, for loving me. We praise your might name! Be blessed and encouraged today.
Job 38-40 God responds to Job. We all know Job is grieving, and upset and just wants to know why? God replies with questions of his own. It is so important that we understand who God is. We so easily can get the idea in our head that He is just this loving father, that cares and wants only the best for all of us and forget that he is THE CREATOR. Think about who He is in your life. I pray that this encourages you and your walk with Him. Blessings!
Job 3 - 12 Your freinds mean well, but if you really want the right answers, go to God. He IS! Be blessed!
Job 1:13 - 2:10 "... and he fell to the ground in WORSHIP and said 'Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will depart. The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.' In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing." Isaiah 55:89 God's ways are not our ways. We're not always going to understand... we have to be ok with that. How? RELATIONSHIP with Jesus. Be blessed today!
God created you for a relationship with Him. As we go through the book of Job I pray that God reveals Himself to you in a way that is so personal, you are never the same again. Job 1:1-12 Hebrew 4:12 Be encouraged today!
I was totally wrong - it's Hebrews! Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." Romans 8:1 (read the whole chapter) Isaiah 48:10 "Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tried you in the furnace of affliction." Daniel 4 Could all the things that the people of God went through - captivity in Babylon have been for the sake of saving King Nebuchadnezzar's soul? Don't question what God is doing, just be obedient, and give God your ALL. I pray today you are blessed and encouraged!
Romans 8 We have to trust God no matter what. Stop listening to the lies and living according to your flesh, and listen to the Holy Spirit of God, and his truth - the Bible. Romans 8:38 "... nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Did you hear that? NOTHING can separate us! Trust Him no matter what, and He will bring you through. Blessings!
Matthew 28:19-20; Mark 13:32-36 Remember what you are called to do. If you stay busy doing what He asks, you will not have a problem staying awake! (Here's where I am reading in the chronological bible reading: Jeremiah 39-40 & Lamentations 1-5)
Proverbs 12:25 "Anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad." James 3:6 "And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell." What kind of fire are you setting? Hell fire, or Holy Spirit fire? It's never to late to change course, to put out the hell fire, and let the Holy Spirit - God's Holy Spirit set your life ablaze! I pray you are encouraged! Blessings
Romans 15:13 "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." Websters Dictionary "Hope: The feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best." "Faith: confidence or trust in a person or thing." "Trust: reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc., of a person or thing; confidence. confident expectation of something; hope." Hope, faith, and trust all go hand in hand in or relationship with Jesus. Let him give you peace. Read His word, pray (talk to him), he is faithful! Be blessed and encouraged!
I may not know what I will be doing tomorrow, but I know I am chasing after Jesus! Don't worry, God's got you! Matthew 6:25-34; Mark 7:6-7 (I think I may have said Mark 6 in my podcast, but it's Mark 7); Proverbs 22:6 Praying that this podcast encourages you to do all you can for Jesus today... Live like it's your last first day! Blessings!
1 Corinthians 6:19 "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;" No matter where you are, or what you are doing, God is with you. His Holy Spirit lives in you. Be who He has called you to be, don't try to be something you are not. Blessings to you today!
Mark 6:45-48 No one likes the process, but we have to go through it. You never know what Jesus is doing in your life, in the middle of your frustration, that's when he's using you! Be encouraged! Devotion referenced is My Utmost For His Highest, by Oswald Chambers
Exodus 20:1-4; 2 Chronicles 29 & 30 We all have "high places" in our lives. Things that we don't want God to touch. We'll never see all God has for us if we don't allow him get rid of our mess. I pray you are encouraged today. Be blessed!
YouVerson Bible app - "If You're Going Over, You Can't Go Under" by Dr. Barry Chant I am so excited about all that God has done and it doing! You can have this same spirit of excitement, and joy, just step out and watch God work in your life. Say yes to whatever he asks - even if it's scary, God will equip you for what he calls you to do! 1 Corinthians 14:14-16 Blessings!
Romans 15:13, Ephesians 6:10-18 He is everything - the Alpha and Omega, beginning and the end, the King of Kings, and Lord of Lords! God wins - choose God! Blessings and encouragement to you today - you can make! God's on your side!
Luke 17:20-37 The Coming of the Kingdom (of God) Romans 2:14-15 "...They demonstrate that God's law is written on their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right." Be careful of opinions. What does God's word say? You can ALWAYS trust God's word. I am reading "The Daily Bible In Chronological Order, 365 Daily Readings, (NIV) With devotional Insights to Guide You Through God's Word". This book has been a great way for me to read through the Bible and to also understand what is going on during the time everything is happening. God has shown me so much! Be encouraged, read your Bible and God will speak to your heart.
Thank you so much for listening to Koffee With Kelli!
Everything is meaningless? Well, let's see! Thanks so much for listening!
Acts 1-4 Be in prayer, God is going to move the mountains in your life! We have to have faith like Peter and John, more faith! Trust Him, even if you don't see anything happening. We see with our physical eyes, but there's more going on in the atmosphere. Rise up believers and watch our God move! Blessings! Something Has To Break! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPPaRz8ieBE
1 Kings 19 Elijah and Elisha - Sometimes God takes our Elijah, look to Jesus, He wants to be the Elijah in your life! He's working all the time, let everything make you better no bitter. God's got this! Be blessed!
Acts 2:25-36 Jesus was the Messiah; Who is David? 1 & 2 Samuel. Please, please, please read your Bible the inerrant (without any errors) divinely inspired (God gave the writers the words to write) TRUTH. You have to read the whole book to understand, the old testament is fulfilled in the new testament. Here are a few Bible reading helps: YouVerson Bible app, Blue Letter Bible app, Biblegateway.com. Blessings!
Here is a recap of the No Price Tag Youth Conference in Inman, SC. Thanks for listening!
1 John 1:9 No Price Tag conference was Amazing! Check out our Committed to Christ episode later tonight when we share all God's doing! (May 16, 2022)
Philippians 1:18-21 We as followers of Christ are walking this journey together. Stop looking at what others need to do/change, and make the changes you need to make in your own life. Don't be a third string player - play to win! I want more, I already know my team wins, BUT I want to be a first string player always in the game! Blessing to you today!
Who are you when no one is watching? It's all about the "RELATIONSHIP". Judas walked with Jesus, the Son of God, in person, and didn't recognize who He was... Do you? Matthew 8:28-32; John 11:38-44; Matthew 9:1-8; Matthew 14:22-33; Matthew 27:3-10, Acts 27:3-10, Psalm 90. John 10:27-28 "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me..." Be encouraged, keep listening/hearing His voice!
Psalm 62 "...One think God has spoken, two things have I heard: that you, O God, are strong, and that you, O Lord, are loving..." Put your trust in God today. It's a new day! Put on your pink cowboy hat, and your boots, and walk on!" Be blessed and encouraged, you got this!
Recognize what Jesus did. Worship Him, He is the King of Kings! He died for every single person ever born. Take the time to praise Him, to worship, to read his word. Nothing is more important the your eternal soul... YouVersion Bible App - "Journey Through Holy Week" Mark 15:33-41 Be encouraged!
Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden on the Lord... You are blessed, God allows that burden to keep your focus on Him. You need Jesus, you can't do this by yourself. 2 Samuel 16, Psalm 3 King David, a man after God's own heart. Keep your heart right, again, you need Jesus and can't do this by yourself! Be blessed
The last month has been a real trial. I have questioned everything - who I am, what I am doing, even my relationship with Jesus! The devil is a liar! Have you ever thought about how many lions David had to face, before he was ready to face the giant with a slingshot? I'm no longer a slave to fear - I am a broken child of God, and that's exactly where God wants me. How about you? Are you broken? Good, that's when God can come in and do his best work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDnA_coA168 (Zach Williams, No Longer Slaves) Be encouraged!
2 Timothy 4:2-5 Dig into God's word, it WILL make sense! The more you read his word, the more you will understand. The devotion I refer to is: utmost.org Be encouraged!
