Life is always changing, and it is no surprise that there are times when we just want to take a break from all of the changes. Yet, our hopeful wishes fall flat in the hands of a world that is kept moving by change. So whether the word 'change' is a cuss word or a word to describe the vision of your life, we are all doing it everyday. From changing our clothes, or changing our career path, we are constantly moving and changing to adapt to the surroundings we live in. However, there is a place where nothing changes. It is the same yesterday, today and forever. We can find it in the pages of the Bible, where we can discover a truth that brings light to all the changes around us. Even though we have become used to the constant daily change we are faced with, we all need a place where we can go and find stability, consistency, promise, and faithfulness-a place that is never shaken or shifting. That place is at the foot of our Father God. If you are living in constant confusion, struggling to find security, or searching for something solid you will not find that any where in this world. It can only be found when we stop and step into the throne room of God. There you will find everything you need for Life.

Unwavering
God wants all of his people to be targets, to be lights, to be cities set on a hill which cannot be hid. Where we, God's children, are so "In God" that the World may know the difference from those who just say they are God's redemption and those who are the real deal. Those who possess the Law of the Spirit. What will that Law do? The Law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus will make you free from the law of sin and death. (Romans 8:2)
Sin will have no dominion over you. You will have no desire to sin, and it will be as true in your case as it was in Jesus' case when he said, "Satan comes, but finds no thing in me." Satan cannot condemn; he has no power. His power is destroyed, as we see in Romans 8:10. "If Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness." To be filled with God means that you are free: full of joy, peace, blessing, strength of character, molded new in God. To be transformed by his mighty power till you LIVE, because Jesus lives in you manifesting his power through you as Sons of God.
Mark 5:36 "Be not afraid, only believe". The people in whom God delights are the ones who rest upon His Word without wavering. God has nothing for the man who wavers. James 1:6 "Let him that wavers expect nothing from God."

The Weary Woman
A certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years...came
in the press behind, and touched his garment. (Mark 5:25, 27)
This weary woman was beside herself. She had spent all her money on
physicians, all her energy on hope in the latest cures and was left no further
along than when she started. In fact, even with all her efforts she was
growing worse. This woman was past desperate. Then one day Jesus came into
town. She had heard about this Jesus, but would this pursuit leave her
untouched like all the other promises? If this woman felt that, you would
have not seen it in her words. This poor woman said, "If I may touch
but his clothes, I shall be whole." No doubt, her faith was strong.
She may have been very weary, but her faith was never weary. The
opportunity had come for her to touch him, and "immediately the flow of
her blood stopped." She was immediately healed.
Jesus knew that something had went out of him and wanted to know why.
So he stopped and asked, "Who touched me"? The woman was
fearful and trembling. Had she done something wrong? Maybe she had wondered if
she should run. Instead, she fell down before the Lord and told him the truth.
It is here that we must learn the key that unlocks many closed doors. He
said to her, "Daughter, thy faith has made you whole, go in peace and be
freed from your suffering."
The opportunity comes to you now to be healed, delivered, and
given new life. Will you believe? Will you touch him? There is
something in a living faith that is different from anything else. Oh that you
will believe even standing in the middle of the furnace. For if you call things
that are not as though they were, you will walk in the days that are!
