Thought For The Day

Are you worshipping the real Jesus, the Jesus of the bible, From Genesis to Revelation? 2Timothy 4:3-4  the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. Are your ears being tickled? Or are you challenged to live righteously and obey God's word, and accept correction? Falling away involves, defection, abandonment, and  is rooted in rebellion. Beloved, it is time to set our priorities in order.  Our number one focus is on the Jesus of the Bible, not another Jesus, but the Jesus of the word of God. The Jesus of the entire world. The Savior and soon coming Judge. Are you drifting away, is there something that you have put before God? Is it self, or popularity, finances or other cares of this world? Too many of us have settled for a mixture of bible and new age.  It ha...

  The word of God is life giving. John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing.  The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. Beloved, If we only understood the importance of God's word in our daily lives, we would devour it. We would make time for it to renew our mind. It is our Spiritual food for our soul. It renews our mind, and balances out our emotions, and reveals to us God's perfect will. God's word is truth. (John 17:17) Do you desire to  grow in your faith?  Romans 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. (Hearing the same thing over and over again) We see that the word of God is life, truth and builds up our faith, it is health to all our 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 then in the midst of your heart;  For they are life to those who find them, and health to all th...

  Are you weary from fighting the good fight of faith? 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, Know that every plot of the enemy will fail. Every plan to defeat you will also fail. Every fight we fight is already fixed in our favor. Because we have divine favor on our side, because we belong to Jesus Christ our Lord, we have already won. To fight the good fight of faith means by the grace of God we will practice spiritual discipline, with our desires,  we will have patience, endurance and perseverance, we fight and win for our imperishable crown. There are times that we do the fighting, and that involves our flesh. We fight the good fight of faith only in the power of God not in our flesh.  We are to use our spiritual weapons, which are prayer, and the word of God. Galatians 5:17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh, and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things you wish. When ou...

What are those spiritual blessings? Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ, 1. We are chosen from the foundation of the world. Ephesians 1:4 just as He  chose us in  Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love. 2. We are adopted in the family of God. Ephesians 1:5 Having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good  pleasure of His will, 3. We are accepted in the Beloved. Ephesians   1:6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved, 4. We already have redemption, forgiveness of sins. Ephesians 1:7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, and forgiveness of sins, according the riches of His grace. 5. We can know the mystery of God's will. Ephesians 1:9-10 having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to H...
