Word of the Day

Thank you Jesus for all your blessings! Praise the Lord!

We give you all the glory! You are worthy to be praised!

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. "My speech and my preaching was not with enticing words." I Corinthians 2:4 Paul was a scholar and an orator of the first rank; he is not speaking out of abject humility, but saying that he would veil the power of God if when he preached the gospel he impressed people with his "excellency of speech." Belief in Jesus is a miracle produced only by the efficacy of redemption, not by impressiveness of speech, not by wooing and winning, but by the sheer unaided power of God. The creative power of the redemption comes through the preaching of the Gospel, but never because pf the personality of the preacher. The real fasting of the preacher is not from food, but rather from eloquence, from impressiveness and exquisite diction, from everything that might hinder the gospel of God being presented. The preacher is there as the representative of God, "as though God did beseech you by us." He is there to present the Gospel of God. If it is only because of my preaching that people desire to be better, they will never get anywhere near Jesus Christ. Anything that flatters me in my preaching of the Gospel will end in making me a  traitor to Jesus. I prevent the creative power of His redemption from doing its work. "I, if I be lifted up....will draw all men unto Me."

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Great I hope. "Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known Me, Philip?" John 14:9 Our Lord must be repeatedly astounded with us, astounded at how un-simple we are. It is opinions of our own which make us stupid; when we are simple we are never stupid, we discern all the time. Philip expected the revelation of a tremendous mystery, but not in the One Whom he knew. The mystery of God is not in what is going to be, it is now; we look for it presently, in some cataclysmic event. We have no reluctance in obeying Jesus, but it is probable that we are hurting Him by the questions we ask. "Lord, show us the Father." His answer comes back, "There He is, always here or nowhere." We look for God to manifest Himself to His children. God only manifests Himself in His children. Other people see the manifestation, the child of God does not. We want to be conscious of God; we can't be conscious of our consciousness and remain sane. If we are asking God to give us experiences, or if conscious experience is in the road, we hurt the Lord. The very questions we ask hurt Jesus because they are not the questions of a child.
     "Let not your heart be troubled". Then am I hurting Jesus by allowing my heart to be troubled? If I believe the character of Jesus, am I living up to my belief? Am I allowing anything to perturb my heart, any morbid questions to come in? I have to get to the implicit relationship that takes everything as it comes from Him. God never guides presently, but always now. Realize that the Lord is here now, and the emancipation is immediate.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. "Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God." Philippians 4:6 Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I pray everyone has a safe travel to and from their families homes today as we all celebrate this holiday season. Let us all be grateful for everything that the Lord has done for us. I know that we will enjoy the parade, some great food, and the football game today, but let us not forget our Lord who died for our sins, for our bodies to be healed and for salvation. He gave the ultimate sacrifice for us to live free and be able to enjoy this day with all of our loved ones.
      So I pray, fill us with your love Lord. Fill our hearts with joy. Thank you for all the many blessings that you have given us, they are countless. Place upon us the whole armor of God which is the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth, shod our feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace, give us the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God and the shield of faith. Cover us all in your powerful blood. Place around us a hedge of protection, pillars of fire, to be under an open heavenly portal and the Holy Spirit presence to be upon us. Oh Lord, bless us indeed enlarge our territory and keep your hand upon us so that evil may not grieve us. I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God, and dispute, bind up and cut loose all enemy assignments and negativity, any words spoken decreed, declared against us out of the will of God and place them as your footstool, Lord, and fill that void with God's holy light. Oh Lord, that we may be granted with great favor, blessings, protection, healing, compassion, grace, love, joy, peace, mercy, justice righteousness, wisdom, knowledge, discernment, understanding, forgiveness, meekness, humbleness, strength, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, temperance, confidence, boldness, and new awakening of the Holy Spirit. Let us have great manifestations of your presence Holy Spirit. May we be in and remain in the covenant promises of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob. All theses things be upon our family and us, the church, Israel, the prime minister of Israel, Jerusalem, and all God Jehovah's people.
     Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Moral Decision About Sin

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. "Knowing this that our old man is crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin." Romans 6:6 Have I made this decision about sin, that it must be killed right out in me? It takes a long time to come to moral decision about sin, but it is the great moment on my life when I do decide that just as Jesus Christ died for the sin of the world, so sin must die out in me, not be curbed or suppressed or counteracted, but crucified. No one can bring anyone else to this decision. We may be earnestly convinced, and religiously convinced, but what we need to do is to come to the decision which Paul forces here.
     Haul yourself up, take time alone with God, make the moral decision and say, "Lord, identify me with Thy death until I know that sin is dead in me."  Make the moral decision that sin in you must be put to death.
     It wasn't a divine anticipation on the part of Paul, but a very radical and definite experience. Am I prepared to let the Spirit of God search me until I know what the disposition of sin is, the thing that lusts against the Spirit of God in me? Then if so, will I agree with God's verdict on that disposition of sin, that it should be identified with the death of Jesus? I can't reckon myself, "dead indeed unto sin" unless I have been through this radical issue of will before God.
     Have I entered into the glorious privilege of being crucified with Christ until all that is left is the life of Christ in my flesh and blood? "I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me."

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Great I hope. "He must increase, but I must decrease." John 3:30 If you become a necessity to a soul, you are out of God's order. As a worker, your great responsibility is to be a friend of the Bridegroom. When once you see a soul in sight of the claims of Jesus Christ, you know that your influence has been in the right direction, and instead of putting out a hand to prevent the throes, pray that they grow ten times stronger until there is no power on earth or in hell that can hold that soul away from Jesus Christ. Over and over again, we become amateur providences, we come in and prevent God: and say, "This and that must not be." Instead of proving friends of the Bridegroom, we put our sympathy in the way, and the soul will one day say, "That one was a thief, he stole my affections from Jesus, and I lost my vision of Him."
     Beware of rejoicing with a soul in the wrong thing, but see that you do rejoice in the right thing. "The friend of the Bridegroom...rejoices greatly because of the Bridegroom's voice, this is my joy therefore is fulfilled. He must increase, but I must decrease." This is spoken with joy and not with sadness, at last they are to see the Bridegroom. And John says this is his joy. It is the absolute effacement of the worker, he is never thought of again.
     Watch for all you are worth until you gear the Bridegroom's voice in the life of another. Never mind what havoc it brings, what upsets, what crumblings of health, rejoice with divine hilarity when once His voice is heard. You may often see Jesus Christ wreck a life before He saves it. (Matt 10:34)

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. "Add to your brotherliness....love" II Peter 1:7 Love is indefinite to most of us, we don't know what we mean when we talk about love. Love is the sovereign preference of one person for another, and spiritually Jesus demands that that preference be for Himself. When the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost, Jesus Christ is easily first; then we must practice the working out of these things mentioned by Peter.
     The first thing God does is to knock pretense and the pious pose right out of me. The Holy Spirit reveals that God loved me not because I was lovable, but because it was His nature to do so. Now, He says to me, show the same love to others, "Love as I have loved you." "I will bring any number of people about you whom you can't respect, and you must exhibit My love to them as I have exhibited it to you." You can't reach it on tiptoe. Some have tried, but were soon tired.
     "The Lord suffereth long..." Let me look within and see His dealings with me. The knowledge that God has loved me to the uttermost will send me forth into the world to love in the same way. God's love to me is inexhaustible, and I must love others from the bedrock of God's love to me. Growth in grace stops the moment I get huffed because I have a peculiar person to love with. Just think how disagreeable  I have been to God! Am I prepared to be so identified with the Lord Jesus that His life and His sweetness are being poured out all the time? Neither natural love nor Divine love will remain unless it is cultivated. Love is spontaneous, but it has to be maintained by discipline.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. "But when it pleased God..." Galatians 1:15 As workers for God we have to learn to make room for God, to give God elbow room. We calculate and estimate, and say this and that will happen, and we forget to make room for God to come in as He chooses. Would we be surprised if God came into our meeting or into our preaching in a way we had never looked for Him to come? Do not look for God to come in any particular way, but look for Him. That is the way to make room for Him. Expect Him to come, but do not expect Him only in a certain way. However much we may know God, the great lesson to learn is that at any minute He may break in. We are apt to overlook this element of surprise, yet God never works in any other way. All of a sudden God meets the life, "When it was the good pleasure of God."
     Keep your life so constant in its contact with God that His surprising power may break out on the right hand and on the left. Always be in a state of expectancy, and see that you leave room for God to come in as He likes.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Great I hope. "Jesus did not commit Himself unto them...for He knew what was in man." John 2:24-25 Put God first in trust. Our Lord trusted no man; yet He was never suspicious, never bitter, never in despair, about any man, because He put God first in trust. He trusted absolutely in what God's grace could do for any man. If I put my trust in human beings first, I will end in despairing of everyone; I will become bitter, because I have insisted on man being what no man ever can be; absolutely right. Never trust anything but the grace of God in yourself or in anyone else.
     Put God's needs first. "Lo, I come to do Thy will, O God" Hebrews 10:9. A man's obedience is to what he sees to be a need; Our Lord's obedience was to the will of His Father. The cry today is- "We must get some work to do; the heathen are dying without God; we must go and tell them of Him. " We have to see first of all that God's needs in us personally are being met. "Tarry ye until..." We must be rightly related to the needs of God. When God's needs in us have been met, the He will open the way for us to realize His needs elsewhere.
      Put God's trust first. "And whoso receiveth one such little child in my name receiveth Me" Matthew 18:5. God's trust is that He gives me Himself as a babe. God expects my personal life to be a "Bethlehem". Am I allowing my natural life to be slowly transfigured by the indwelling life of the Son of God? God's ultimate purpose is that His Son might be manifested in my mortal flesh.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Wonderful I hope. Today let's talk about bringing the blessing in. We as heirs to the throne of Christ Jesus, through the shedding of his blood, has made us to be in the covenant blessing that He gave to Abraham, Issac and Jacob. But you may say, how can that be? When Jesus came on this earth, he came to fulfill the law of love. He gave us the one commandment to love one another and to love our neighbor as our self. So we have the full blessing that was in fact handed down through Noah. It is the same blessing that God gave Adam. The blessing that your seed will be blessed. We need to tune into the Word and listen to the voice of the Lord and He will guide and direct your every step. But that is only if we stay in the law of love. If we waver from that, we allowing the devil to take a foothold in our lives. When you feel as if you have sinned and stepped out of the law of love, you must repent immediately. Get back into the right place with God and the blessing will begin to flow.
     Did you know that what you say matters to God? If you really want the blessing which may be financial, health, children, family, peace, or joy, then it should matter what we speak. Our words have power. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and that they love it shall eat the fruit thereof.  Proverbs 18:21 In other words, you can speak someone to death or to life, including yourself. If you are always saying, "Yes, this time of year, I always get sick," then that is what you will get. If you say," I have the blessing of the Lord and he protects me," then you will receive that. (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Romans 4:17 Now you might say, that God is the one who did that, how can I do that? Since Jesus came to the earth, and fulfilled the law of love, we are joint heirs to the Kingdom of Heaven. We sit with Him on the throne. This means that we have the same power that Jesus had while He was on the earth, to call in the blessing and to speak things into existence through faith. Even Elijah, a man of God, before Jesus came, by faith prayed for the heavens to be shut up from rain and it was given unto him for three years.
     If we will pray by faith and stay in the law of love, we too can speak to that which is not as though it were. So if you are looking to advance your finances, improve your health, better your children, have peace and joy, stay in the Word and pray diligently with all faith not wavering and it will be done.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Great I hope. "I am crucified with Christ." Galatians 2:20 The imperative need spiritually is to sign the death warrant of the disposition of sin, to turn all emotional impressions and intellectual beliefs into a moral verdict against the disposition of sin, my claim to my right to myself. Paul says, " I have been crucified with Christ"; he doesn't say, " I have determined to imitate Jesus Christ," or "I will endeavor to follow Him", but " I have been identified with Him in His death." When I come to such a moral decision and act upon it, then all that Christ wrought for me on the cross is wrought in me. The free committal of myself to God gives the Holy Spirit the chance to impart to me the holiness of Jesus Christ.
"Nevertheless I live." The individuality remains, but the mainspring, the ruling disposition, is radically altered. The same human body remains, but the old satanic right to myself is destroyed.
"And the life which I now live in the flesh," not the life which I long to live and pray to live, but the life I now live in my mortal flesh, the life which men can see, "I live by the faith of the Son of God." This faith is not Paul's faith in Jesus Christ, but the faith that the Son of God has imparted to him, "the faith of the Son of God." It is no longer faith in faith, but faith which over leaps all conscious bounds, the identical faith of the Son of God.
