Waiting for the blessed hope.

 Are you anxiously waiting for the return of the Lord?

Titus 2:11-14

For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,  teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age,

looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself is own special people, zealous for good works.

Jesus is coming for His church, those called out ones who have new life in Him, and  those who are ready to leave this sinful world.

It is amazing to me how a few evil people in this world have caused the whole world to bow to their demands, placing great fear on those who do not understand what God's word says about these times.

We are to rejoice as our redemption draws near.

Christians all over the world are leaving their comfort zones and reading their bibles to see what is coming next.

God has to shake up the church and wake up the church from their comfort zone.  

The shaking has moved us toward the Lord and away from the things of this world.

Do we pray for our enemies as we are told to do, or do we murmur and complain?

Are we looking for our blessed hope, or are the cares of this life overwhelming your thoughts. 

Just a few questions to ask ourselves.

Hebrews 9:28

so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many.

To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

Take some time and reflect on your thought life.

Is Jesus first? and who you are as a Christian, are you making a difference in this world?

Are you sold out for Jesus?  Are you ready for His return?

1John 2:28

And now little children abide in Him, that when he appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before him at His coming.

1Thessalonians 5:2

For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.


Beloved, people are being indoctrinated by the media and technology.  They are believing the lies and half truths going out on the airwaves.

Check what you hear with the word of God, if it does not measure up, cast it off.

Never allow fear to rule your thoughts.

God's word tell us that we will return with the Lord, so that means we will leave this earth and be with Jesus, before the wrath of God is poured out on the earth.

we are not appointed to wrath, but salvation, which means to be rescued and delivered.

Colossians 3:4

When Christ who is our life appears, then you will also appear with Him in glory.

Are you ready? For the great catching away?

Luke 21:34-36

But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, and drunkenness,

and the cares of this life,  and that day come on you unexpectedly.

For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth.

Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.

I want to be one of those looking for Jesus daily.

Are you eagerly waiting for His return?

Revelation 16:15

Behold, I am coming as a thief.  Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his garments,  lest he walk naked and they see his shame.

Beloved, read these scriptures over and over and let the word of God penetrate your mind.  Let it always be full of truth and life from God's word.

God bless your day

Jesus Loves you

Love in Jesus

Joy

Lord how we long to see You and Your glorious return. Lord as we prepare for Your return may we be doing the work You have called us to do. Let each of Your children fulfill the destiny that we have been called to. Let us finish this race strong. We pray for all the souls that don’t know You. No matter what they have done or are doing may they call out to the living God. May they turn from their wicked ways and seek Your face and Your will!!! Father it’s only by the grace of God that I am where I am. Thank You Lord for Your Faithfulness. May the church of God rise up like never before and realize that there are lost and dying souls going to hell and people need Jesus!!! May the church stand out from the world and be different!!! May we speak with wholly boldness and see miracles happen. Lord may You be exalted in all that we Your children do and help us to remember that it is NOT about us but YOU and all You have called us to do. In Jesus mighty mighty name Amen!!!!

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, ...
