WE ARE BEING CHANGED FROM GLORY TO GLORY, IF WE ARE BORN AGAIN.

AS WE GROW IN THE LORD, WE ARE BEING CHANGE FROM ONE GLORY TO ANOTHER.

 2 CORINTHIANS 3:18
BUT WE WITH UNVEILED FACE, BEHOLDING AS IN A MIRROR THE GLORY OF THE LORD, ARE BEING TRANSFORMED INTO THE SAME IMAGE FROM GLORY TO GLORY, JUST AS BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD.

 GOD IS TAKING US FROM ONE LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING TO ANOTHER LEVEL.

 WE LEARN FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT ONE TYPE OF GLORY, THEN WE LEARN FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT, ANOTHER GLORY. 

 IN THE OLD TESTAMENT WE LEARN GOD'S JUDGEMENT'S AND WRATH, ALSO HIS MERCY AND PATIENCE.

 IN THE NEW TESTAMENT WE LEARN THAT ALL GOD'S JUDGMENTS AND PUNISHMENTS WERE PLACE ON JESUS AT THE CROSS.

HOW THE OLD TESTAMENT SAINTS LONG TO SEE WHAT WE HAVE IN CHRIST JESUS. 

 HIS GLORY.

 THE GLORY OF GODS GRACE AND PROVISION BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, BECAUSE WE KNOW CHRIST JESUS.

 WE HAVE UNVEILED FACES TO SHOW THE GLORY OF GOD WORKING IN US BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.( WE DON'T SEE IT, BUT OTHERS DO)

 AS WE BEHOLD THE FACE OF JESUS AND SPEND MORE TIME WITH HIM, WE WILL REFLECT HIS GLORY.

 JOHN 17:22
"AND THE GLORY WHICH YOU GAVE ME I HAVE GIVEN THEM, THAT THEY BE ONE JUST AS WE ARE ONE.

 THOSE IN THE WORLD WHO HAVE A HARD HEART AND WHEN THEY SEE THE GLORY OF GOD ON YOU, THEY WILL REACT TO YOU IN A NEGATIVE WAY.  
PRAISE GOD FOR THAT!  THAT IS PROOF YOU KNOW AND LOVE JESUS, AND YOUR LIGHT IS SHINING BRIGHT.

 1 PETER 4:14
IF YOU ARE REPROACHED FOR THE NAME OF CHRIST, BLESSED ARE YOU, FOR THE SPIRIT OF GLORY AND OF GOD RESTS UPON YOU.
ON THEIR PART HE IS BLASPHEMED, BUT ON YOUR PART HE IS GLORIFIED.

 BELOVED, THE  MORE TIME YOU SPEND WITH JESUS AND IN GOD'S WORD, THE MORE YOU WILL REFLECT THE GLORY OF GOD.

 THAT GLORY IS A LIGHT TO THIS DARK WORLD.

 BE CONSCIENCE OF WHICH KINGDOM YOU BELONG TO. 
SHARE JESUS WHEREVER YOU GO, LET THE GLORY OF THE LORD SHINE THROUGH YOU.

 THE DARKER THIS OLD WORLD GETS, WITH ITS DECEPTIONS, THE BRIGHTER YOUR LIGHT WILL BE TO EXPOSE ALL DARKNESS AROUND YOU.

 HAVE YOU EVER HAD SOMEONE IN THE DARK, HOLD A FLASHLIGHT ON YOUR FACE? IT IS BLINDING ISN'T IT?

 WELL, THAT'S HOW THE DARK UNSAVED WORLD FEELS WHEN GOD'S KIDS ARE AROUND.

 WE ARE A BLINDING LIGHT OF LOVE IN THEIR EYES.  THEY SEE WE ARE DIFFERENT, CARING AND LOVING, FULL OF LIFE. 

 BELOVED, LET THE GLORY OF THE LORD SHINE THROUGH YOU TODAY.

 THIS IS NOT THE TIME FOR SELF-PITY, OR SADNESS AND SORROW, OR CONFUSION AND FEAR.

 THIS IS THE CHURCHES GREATEST HOUR IN HISTORY.

 BELIEVERS WHO HAD LITTLE TIME FOR THE WORD OF GOD, ARE NOW FORCED BY OUR CIRCUMSTANCES, TO READ AND PRAY AND CONNECT WITH OUR LORD.

 GOD HAS SUCH A SENSE OF HUMOR, HE IS OUR LORD AND LOVES US TOO MUCH TO LEAVE US TO OURSELVES.

 HE IS TAKING US FROM GLORY TO GLORY IN JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD.

 THE CHURCH BUILDINGS MIGHT BE SHUT DOWN FOR A SEASON, BUT GOD'S CHILDREN ARE THE CHURCH. 
THEY ARE ALIVE AND MOVING IN THIS EARTH, TO BRING GLORY AND HONOR TO OUR GOD.

 BELOVED, LET THE GLORY OF THE LORD SHINE THROUGH YOU.

GOD BLESS YOUR DAY
JESUS LOVES YOU

 LOVE IN JESUS
JOY

I had just gone through a major life change and had also returned to church and Bible study. People who saw me after a couple of months commented on how "good" I looked, relaxed and happy. At the time, I did not know about how God's glory would shine on me and through me, and remember saying, "oh, it's just new make up..." I didn't understand until about a year later that it had nothing to do with my make up. It was God shining on me and through me! And now, I just say thank you and am able to share how good God is and how He has helped me through so much!

THE NEW CHRISTIANTY IS A MIXTURE OF OTHER RELIGIONS FROM OTHER GOVENMENTS.

  We all get excited to see new babes born into God's kingdom.  They are coming in by the millions all over the world. Praise God!! We pray that they will be taught the Bible, be discipled and shown the love of God. They cannot know the fullness of God without reading His word and getting to know Jesus. There is a new Christianity being formed. One without repentance, or accountability, to other believers, full of self, and not dying daily to self. It's full of entertainment, flashing colored lights, all about SELF, ( SERVING EMOTIONS AND LOVING FAVOR) just like the world. Matthew 18:3-4 And He said " Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. "Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Humility is lacking in so many, pride is event in their words and actions in some of the big ministries. I had a beloved brother in Christ...

WHEN INDIFFERENCE ENDS, THAT IS WHEN LOVE BEGINS.

  Don't look for love to come to you, instead, look  where you can give it. Galatians 5:13 For you brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. If you have been buried with Christ in baptism and raised in new life, then stop looking at the old you. Give the love that you always wanted to experience before you met Jesus. That unconditional love. If you noticed while reading the gospels that Jesus went out of His way to show the Fathers love, to provide what real love looks like. Sinners flocked to hear the good news of the gospel. They felt the love. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Beloved, we are to do the same for sinners we know, who have not received Jesus yet. We only receive real love from God when we realize that real love is missing from our life. Conditional love says, I will love you if you please me. G...

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...
