Word of God is alive and active

Dear all,
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word:
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4: 12 – 13
Seeds
Thought:
The word of God is living, life-changing, and dynamic as it works in us. With the incisiveness of a surgeon’s knife, God’s word God’s word reveals who we are and what we are not. It penetrates the core of our moral and spiritual life. It discerns what is within us, both good and evil. The demands of God’s word require decisions. We must not only listen to the word; we must also let it shape our lives.

Spiritual Rebirth In Christ Jesus

Dear all,
Greetings in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Word: Heart of the Gospel:
Jesus answered and said to him, “Truly, Truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God”. John 3: 3
37
Thought: To Know Him is to Love Him – Deuteronomy 34: 10 and Colossians 1: 15-20
What do I know about God?
1. Knowing Christ Jesus is expressed in “Belief” in Christ now and eternally. Prayer is the power of that “Belief”. Plug in to the prayer power.
2. Life is God’s gift for the exercising of that “Belief” and is given one day at a time.
3. Looking back in our lives we should be able to see Christ character and nature increasing and our nature decreasing.

Precious blood of Christ Jesus

Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10
For you know that it is not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. …..Through Him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. (1 Peter 1: 18-21)

Thought:
It is through His death on the cross as God’s perfect sacrifice for sin and His resurrection three days later that we can now have eternal life if we believe in him. The fact that God Himself has provided the offering that atones for our sin is part of the glorious good news of the gospel.

Upon the window sill of Heaven
And gaze upon thy God.
Then will the vision in thy heart,
Turn strong to meet the day – Author Unknown

Rich toward God

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

Thought:

Are you rich toward God?

Reexamine your commitment to Christ Jesus! Put God first and His Holy Spirit is able to provide our deepest needs, His resources are infinite. When God’s word comes to you make plans to put into practice.

Reorder our priorities in accordance with Gods will.

Train diligently

Father-Son-Cross-Close-upDear all,

May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.

Word:

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2 (ESV)

Thought: As a disciple of Christ we are running toward our Heavenly reward. To live effectively, we must keep our eyes on Christ Jesus. Run in such a way to get the prize and run with the purpose in every step. We must have a purpose and a plan (1 Cor 9: 24-27). The essential disciplines of prayer, Bible study and worship equip us to run with vigor and stamina. Train diligently – Spiritual progress depends upon it.

Psalms 90 – A prayer of Moses the man of God

Dear all,
Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. Ephesians 6: 10
Word
67
Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout all generations. Before the mountains were born or you brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. You turn people back to dust, saying, “Return to dust, you mortals.” A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night. Yet you sweep people away in the sleep of death they are like the new grass of the morning: In the morning it springs up new, but by evening it is dry and withered. We are consumed by your anger and terrified by your indignation. You have set our iniquities before you, our secret sins in the light of your presence. All our days pass away under your wrath; we finish our years with a moan. Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures; yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away. If only we knew the power of your anger! Your wrath is as great as the fear that is your due. Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Relent, Lord! How long will it be? Have compassion on your servants. Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days. Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble. May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children. May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us yes, establish the work of our hands.

Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Hebrews 4: 16
Have a blessed Thanksgiving.
