THERE IS A GODLY FEAR THAT WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND.

 The fear that I am talking about, is for us to be in AWE of the God we have given our life to.

Psalm 111:10

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

Since it is the beginning, that means it is on going. Teaching us every step of the way.

Proverbs 9:10

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Matthew 10:27-28 (Jesus speaking)

"Whatever I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul.  

But fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

The Greek word for fear is terror, and dread, but the next one is for us believers. 

Reverence and Awe.

The Hebrew word for fear is just reverence and respect.

Beloved, God is not a glorified butler,  that we think we can command Him to do things, He is Almighty God!! Creator of the universes.

I have heard prideful people say, "its in His word, He has to do it"

Just where is the fear of God in that statement?

No, Beloved, If and when He does it, it will be in His time and His way.

Psalm 34:9

Oh, fear the Lord, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him.

Beloved, we are to be like the ants, the word of God calls them people. 

They have great wisdom in preparing for the future.

Proverbs 30:24

There are four things which are little on the earth, But they are exceedingly wise; the ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their food in summer;

Beloved, are you preparing for the future return of Jesus?

We also as believers and followers of Jesus, need to prepare to meet Jesus, we are not promised tomorrow.

Get out of the worlds mindset, and focus on Jesus and what He said.

We need to use wisdom while preparing to meet our Lord. 

Let go of anything and anyone that hinders your walk in righteousness.

We can hinder our own walk by listening to the wrong voices.  Check everything you hear with the word of God, and make certain that it is in context. Know God's word!

A good example is Jeremiah 29:11

The Israelites were on their way into bondage in Babylon. God's word would be fulfilled only after 70 years.

God gave them that word to reassure them and give them hope while in Babylon.

Beloved, never take God's word out of its context. Read the whole chapter and get the whole meaning.

It will only hinder your faith and disappoint you when you read it out of context..

Fear the Lord! and remember He is faithful to perform His word, but in His time and His way, not yours!

Isaiah 55:11

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Beloved, respect our Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, He is always working behind the scenes for our good, so trust the Lord, and be in awe of just who He is and what He does.

Be like the Bereans, acts 17:11, search God's word, study it and live it. Find the whole truth.

God Bless your day

Jesus loves you

He is Jehovah God! I'm pretty sure that I don't get to reduce Him to servant status. I am His servant and He is my Master, Redeemer, Savior......

May we each remember that thought we may not understand why things happen the way they do, God is with us here and now. He will make a way where there seems not to be a way. He will guide us and protect and provide for us. We must trust Him and keep going remembering that His timing is perfect.

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...
