The Good Shepherd LORD Jesus Christ Gives us New-Life

Leave a reply

Dear all,

Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love. II John: 3

Word: “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me. John 10: 11 and 14

Thought: The voice of the good shepherd tells us that we are not defined by what we did, but what He did for us on the cross.

Jesus gives us life. The life he gives right now is abundantly rich and full. It is eternal, yet it begins immediately. Life in Christ is lived on a higher plane because of His overflowing forgiveness, love, and guidance. Have you taken Christ’s offer of life?

Where is our help coming from?

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
 
Greetings in Jesus Christ
 
Praise Him- for His love endures forever
 
Isaiah 43:1-3
43 But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob,    he who formed you, Israel:“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;    I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
2 When you pass through the waters,    I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers,    they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire,    you will not be burned;    the flames will not set you ablaze.
3 For I am the Lord your God,    the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;  
 
Doesn’t it bring peace and confidence to know that He made us, He redeemed us, He knows us by name. God knows everything, that there is no hiding from Him. He is all-powerful.
 
There is nothing that God cannot do, for He is the Lord God Almighty.
 
Omniscience: There is nothing that God does not know.
Omnipotence: God is All-Powerful, No one and nothing is more powerful than He. His power is inherent, part of His being as God.
Omnipresence: There is no place where God is not present. Absolutely nothing is beyond God’s reach. To be clear this is not saying that God is in everything
 
Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent these attributes of God mean we are never alone and never without help if you are a child of God.
We may not understand all that God allows to happen. The reason for our circumstances or for things that happen in this world may be a mystery to us but not to the Almighty God. 
 
Knowing who God is, what He is capable of and His Presence brings us great joy, peace, comfort, strength, and confidence. Our times are in His hands and we need not fear. He is Faithful, He is always there.
 
Where are we looking for help? 
Where is our help coming from? 
Can we say as in 
Psalms 121:1-2

1I lift up my eyes to the mountains—

where does my help come from?

2My help comes from the Lord,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

 
Let it be.
Amen
 

God Bless.      

REMEMBER-TRUST-OBEY

Leave a reply
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
 
Greetings in the name of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.
 
Proverbs 3:5 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding” 
 
Bible says Trust the Lord! yet we have difficulty trusting the Lord at one point or another in our walk with Him, especially when we face trials, hardships, uncomfortable situations, etc. When things are going smooth it’s easy to trust God, but when life is not smooth what is our attitude towards GOD? When we are not in comfortable situations, Our natural instincts start brainstorming for ideas how to overcome the situations and we try to solve on our own instead of leaning on GOD and Trusting that he will help us overcome
 
In order to trust God, we must completely surrender our will, our plans, our desires, our future, and our comfort into God’s hands and that’s not easy  and only possible by the help of Holy Spirit
 
God gave clear instructions to Adam not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil(Genesis 2:16). yet he ate it (Genesis 3:6), we see the result of SIN
For Noah God gave instruction to build an ark(Genesis 6:13-14), Noah trusted( Genesis 6:22) and they were saved.
 
REMEMBER-TRUST-OBEY
Remember-Gods word, His Faithfulness(Do not ignore, Remembering HIS Word is the first step)
Trust– Trust in Him and His Word
Obey– Obey Him
 
We can trust in many things, but nothing can ever come close or even be compared to what God offers us in Him.
 
Romans 8:28 28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who[a] have been called according to his purpose.
Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. . .” (1 Chronicles 28:20)  
 

God Bless.  

Rich in Christ-Jesus

Dear all,

Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love. 1 Corinthians 16: 13 -14.

Word: 1 Timothy 6:17-19 (NASB)

Instruct those who are rich in this present world not to be conceited or to fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly supplies us with all things to enjoy. Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is life indeed.

Thought:  Be rich in good works, generous, and ready to share. Faith, service, and obedience are the way to become rich toward God.

Having, First, gained all you can, and, Secondly saved all you can, Then give all you can. – John Wesley

How is our attitude towards money? Be a good steward of God-given resources!

“Personal Evangelism “ – “One Person with God is a Majority”

Leave a reply

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 Holy Spirit. Romans 15: 13

Word of God: 

And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. II Timothy 2: 2

Thought: “Personal Evangelism “ – “One Person with God is a Majority”

Personal evangelism plays a major role in making disciples for LORD Jesus Christ. The ministry is not something we get for ourselves and keep to ourselves. We are stewards of the spiritual treasure God has given us. It is our responsibility to guard the deposit and then invest in the lives of others. They, in turn, are to share the Word with the next generation of believers. – Adapted from Warren Wiersbe Bible commentary.

Have you ever considered how one generation carries the Gospel of Christ Jesus to the next generation? Have you ever wondered what would happen to the Gospel of Christ Jesus if one generation failed to pass it on?

Revival is an experience in the Church; Evangelism is an expression of the Church – Paul-S. Rees.

Trusting in the LORD Jesus is the patient expectation that God will fulfill His promises in his Word and strengthen us to rise above life’s difficulties.

Do you have confidence in Christ Jesus that His purposes are right? Do you believe God loves you and wants the best for you?

Lessons from the Life and Legacy of Noah

Leave a reply

Dear all,

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

       Word:  And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him. Hebrews 11: 6

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Hebrews+11&version=NASB

Lessons from the Life and Legacy of Noah:

  • God is faithful to those who obey him
  • Obedience is a long-term commitment

Thought: “Go and make disciples of all nations” – Matthew 28: 18 – 20

                        “Go and preach the gospel to all creations” – Mark 16: 15

Save others, snatching them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment polluted by the flesh. Jude 1: 23

God Wants to Walk with us before He Works through us

Leave a reply

Dear all,

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

Word: Enoch Walked with God – Hebrews 11: 5-6 (NIV)

By faith Enoch was taken from this life so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. And without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Thought:

God wants to walk with us before He works through us. His ways are reflected in our thoughts, our actions, our motivations, and our life choices because we spend so much time with Him.

How is our faith life? Are we spending quality time in the presence of God every day?  I personally believe that nothing is more important than carrying the presence of God wherever He leads us. God has called us to fix our eyes on Jesus (Hebrews 12). Let us do some self-analysis and make corrections wherever required.

Stand firm in Christ
