Divine Heritage

I am a child of God. I claim my divine heritage here and now.

Those who are close to nature seem to especially enjoy the warmth of the sun and the refreshing coolness of the rain. Life could not exist on earth without light and water, yet we tend to take them for granted most of the time, instinctively knowing that these things are ours.

We also know that day will follow night. Have you ever spent a night worrying whether or not morning would come? Have you ever looked for the sun in any place other than the sky? We do trust God even more than we realize, don’t we? Why not trust Him all the way? Know that God has already provided for us in all ways. Know that all that stands between you and your goal is your own doubt and unbelief.

It is God’s pleasure to give us not only the sun and rain, the order of day and night, but also all good things which make up “the kingdom of heaven.” The kingdom of heaven is present for each of us, but we must know beyond a doubt that we have a right to claim it before it can be ours.

But as many as received him, to them he gave the right to become God’s children, to those who believe in his name. (John 1:12)

Your Divine Plan

By Rev. Joyce Kramer

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
