No matter what the task may be, God will bring us through to victory.

When we feel inadequate, and we all do, from time to time, know that Jesus in you is adequate. He is more than enough to bring us through to victory.

Feeling inadequate is a humbling thing, because we really are most of the time, just that.  We know that greater is He that is in me, and we quote I can do all things through Christ, but we cannot do all things.

Can we stop the moon from shinning? Can we stop the sun from shinning? There are many things we cannot do, but what we can do is put our trust in the Lord and allow Him to carry us through.

In the natural if we draw on God's power we can prosper in all things in our life with Jesus.
Better said, I can do all things through Christ Jesus, because He will be doing the doing in us, and for us.

Philippians 4:13 (amplified bible)
I have strength for all things in Christ who empowers me-I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses inner strength into me, (that is, I am  self-sufficient in Christ sufficiency). Better said for sure.

Only God almighty can do all things, we humans are limited by the house of flesh that we live in.

I understand what Paul was saying, he knew that only Christ in him could do all things, but he is making a point that with Jesus living inside of us ,we are not limited.

He was stating that he can be without food and things or have plenty and  whatever state he finds himself in, he is content. That's what he meant when he said he can do all things through Christ.

I have heard that verse used in the wrong way, as I am sure you have also, we need to keep God's word in context.

2Timothy 2:15
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

This is what will bring us into our victory.  Knowing what God says about a thing and knowing that we fight from victory not for victory, because we have already won.

See yourself as a winner, no matter how hard it seems to be right now, you have already won, you are not a victim, you are a victor!! You are the righteousness in Christ Jesus.

God bless your day
Jesus loves you, Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...

GOD'S LOVE LETTER TO HIS CHILDREN. PART 2

Read God's word and see how many times He chose to bless and not curse His people. God knows our every move and cares that we understand there is obedience to His word that will help us. God's word is a light unto our path.  Psalms 119:104-105 Through Your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path. God's word is rest for the weary, when we have not obeyed the word of God, we will become weary, anxious, and fearful, when we choose to do our own thing instead of what God tells us to do. Jesus loves us too much to leave us where He found us.  Praise God that he did find us searching for truth. Thy word is truth and Jesus is that word. So yes, there will be reminders for our spiritual growth that is needed. Will you squirm and try to fight the Holy Spirit? Yes, because the flesh always fights the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lust against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and th...
