IT IS A NEW DAY, WE ARE TO ENJOY IT.

Psalm 118:24

This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

My Pastor Jack Hayford, years ago use to enter the sanctuary saying this scripture. It really stuck with me.


Don't start your day with broken pieces of yesterday, every day is fresh and new, prepared just for you.

Are you overly concerned about what people think about you?  Are you overly protective of self ? (fear)

Do you have a concern that what you say may offend? If you do, take authority over the spirit of fear. 

You have love and power and a sound mind.

If you have prayed and given your day to the Lord, the Holy Spirit will fill your mouth with the right words.

Are you allowing what others think about you to affect the choices you make?

Have you forgotten that we are crucified with Christ?

Remind yourself, what really matters is what God thinks and says about you His child, and that you obey His word with a heart of love.

To often we allow the enemy to bring up our failures, the ones Jesus took care of at the cross.

Past, present and future sins.

Romans 8:1

There is therefore NOW no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.


Each day that we have is new and fresh, controlled by the Holy Spirit, because we die to ourselves and obey the word of God.

God always gives more grace where it is needed.

James 4:6

But He gives MORE grace, therefore He says:  God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.

Proud people over-estimate their self, and under-estimate others.

1Peter 5:5-7

Likewise you younger people submit yourselves to your elders.  Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility.

God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.  

Therefore humble yourselves under the Mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him for He cares for you.


Beloved, make an effort to hear from the Spirit what God is speaking in these scriptures.  

They are living and powerful and health to all your flesh. 

Proverbs 4:20-23

My son, give attention to my words;  incline your ear to my sayings.

Do not let them depart from your eyes;  keep them in the midst of your heart;  For they are life to those whom find them, and health to all their flesh.

(Study Hebrews 4:12-13)

Enjoy your day, and Praise God for all His goodness.  

Read His word. Obey His word. Rest in His love.  This is the day the Lord has made, we will REJOICE and be glad it it.


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...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

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, ...
