Thought For The Day

Before the world ever was created, Father God planned all that would take place. Jesus created, and the Holy Spirit delivered . They worked together as a unit. Psalm 139:16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.  In Your book they were all written,  The days fashioned for me,  when as yet there were none of them. He planned our salvation, healings and everything that we would need to live on this earth. John 1:1-4 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.  All things were made through Him,  and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. (Genesis 1:3) Genesis 2:8-9 ( the Trinity was involved in creation) Genesis 1:1-2 The Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He formed. And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was a...

What covenant are you under as a believer in Jesus Christ? Many become confused because they mix the covenants of the old and new. Jesus paid a dear price so we would experience the New covenant.   The old covenant was about what man needed to do. Judgement and punishment, all that Jesus took for us on His cross.  We now have God's grace, mercy and compassion extended to our life. Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith,  and that not of yourselves;  it is a gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. The New covenant is about what Jesus has done to set us free. In the new covenant we are under the grace of God and all shame and guilt was laid upon Jesus at the cross.  We have salvation, deliverance and healing for our mind, body, and every part of our soul. Our mind is renewed, our will is God's will, and our emotions are under control by the Holy Spirit. We hear over and over about the need for repentance.   Re...

  We all need a refresher course, a reminder of what God's word speaks to us about our salvation in Jesus Christ our Lord. For those that are young in the Lord, you need this lesson so that you will not get confused as to whether you are saved by grace through faith or not. When reading your bible, you will see places that say you are being saved, you are saved and you will be saved. Romans 10:8-10 But what does it say?  "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (That is the word of faith which we preach); that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith , and that not of yourselves;  it is a gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Beloved, when someone gives a gift to  you  receive it, thank them for it.  Jesus gave us the gift of salvation when He took our place on the cross a...

  1. A mature believer is able to say "I was wrong, forgive me" They have a humble heart. Ephesians 4:1-3 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 2. A mature believer has the ability to make Godly decisions and act on them. Acts 9: 26-27 And when Saul had come to Jerusalem,  he tried to join the disciples;  but they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple. But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles.  And declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the road,  that He had spoken to him,  and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus. 3. A mature believer is able to control their anger when they are frustrated. Ecclesiastes 7:9 Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry,  for anger re...

  There are those who have all degrees and education they could be appointed to a high position, either in their job or ministry. The anointed ones know God, loves God and is full of the Holy Spirit and the word of God.   Many people can be appointed to a high position and not know God.   They can know about God, but they have no personal relationship with Him. That is the difference between the anointed and the appointed. Can the appointed one in a high position know God?  certainly.  Can he also be anointed?  Yes. If he doesn't have pride in his heart. Psalm 119:30 The entrance of Your words gives light;  It gives understanding to the simple. You see beloved those degrees take time, study and finances. Those that are anointed will excel in all they do. If they apply themselves in knowing their God and serving Jesus Christ our Lord. God doesn't need someone with a degree of high standing to use.   He picks the most unusual peo...
