What is God’s purpose on Earth?

Dear all,

May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace. I Cor 1: 3

Word: Gen 1: 27 says “So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.”

Thought: What is God’s purpose on Earth?

We are God’s image bearers. We are the aroma of Christ Jesus wherever he leads us. When we hold God’s hand we might leave it, but if He holds our hand He will not leave. This is the success history of our forefathers those who walked humbly with Him on this Earth.

Pass it On to the next gen.

Wilderness has a purpose

Dear all,

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15: 13

 Word: Wilderness has a purpose:

Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4: 1- 4

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+4%3A1-4&version=NASB

Thought: Fasting is not to show how spiritually mature, or how special we are; It is not intended to reveal our great devotion to God. It is not to impress other people. It is also not a demonstration of how much discipline we have.

Instead, fasting is a statement of how weak and needy we are. It is an admission of our desperation.

Submit to God and resist the devil in Jesus name (James 4:7). Be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18). Remember your call (John 21). Keep yourself pure (I Timothy 5:22). Do what is right, love mercy and walk humbly with Him (Micah 6: 8)

When you follow Christ Jesus you are at war. Do you know that?

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10

Word: For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortress. 2 Corinthian’s 10: 4

Thought:  When you follow Christ Jesus you are at war. Do you know that?

Be diligent and attentive. Submit to God and resist the devil in Jesus name. Be filled with the power of Holy Spirit.

LORD Jesus doesn’t need fans but disciples.

Christ Jesus – An open door – A Low door- A Narrow door

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10

Word: What is a door? What is the purpose of a door?

John 10: 7 – 11 Jesus therefore said to them again, “Truly, Truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. “All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. “The thief comes only to steal, and kill and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly.

Thought:

Not a fan 4

Jesus is an open door and at Floor level door. John 10: 7 – 11

A Low door – Isaiah 57:15

A Narrow door – “But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” Matthew 7:14

Thirsty – Jesus is the living water

Godly thoughts – Acceptable speech pattern – Christ centered motives

Word:  “Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then out of the body? But the things that come out of a person’s mouth come from the heart, and these defile them. For out of the heart come evil thoughts—murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander. These are what defile a person; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them.” Matthew 15:17-20

Thought: We work hard to keep our outward appearance attractive, but what is deep down in our heart is more important to God. When people become followers of Christ, God makes them different on the inside. He will continue the process of transformation inside them if only they ask and seek. God wants us to have a healthy relationship with Him and others by Godly thoughts, acceptable speech pattern and Christ centered motives.

Who is your guide?

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10

Word:

Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth that is what defiles them.” Then the disciples came to him and asked, “Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?” He replied, “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots.  Leave them; they are blind guides. If the blind lead the blind, both will fall into a pit.” Matthew 15:10-14

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2015:10-14

Thought:  Who is your guide? Make sure that those you listen to and learn from are those with good spiritual eyesight – they teach and follow the principles of Scripture.

Jesus appears to Seven Disciples

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Word: Jesus appears to Seven Disciples

John 21: 1-14

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John%2021%3A1-14&version=NASB;NIV

And if Christ has not been raised, then your faith has nothing to it; you are still guilty of your sins. And those in Christ who already died are lost. If our hope in Christ for this life only, we should be pitied more than anyone else in the world. 1 Corinthians 15: 17-19

JESUS 1

Thought: The truth of Christianity rests heavily on the Resurrection. His disciples, those who claimed to have seen the risen Jesus went on to turn the world upside down. Most of them also died for being followers of Christ.
