Shout your praises to Him!

O clap your hands, all ye people; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph. Psalm 47:1 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.47.1/32853

Forgiven and sanctified

Jesus the Christ has done this for His followers because we are forgiven and sanctified in Him and in Him alone. We are forgiven of our sins by His blood and His sacrifice and there is no other that can save us from our sins. So why are there so many who refuse to hear this message? Why do most of the world refuse to follow Him and become His disciples? They follow their own ways and their “gods” even when they know that there is only One God.

In the time of Isaiah, many of the prophecies about Jesus were given to him. Hundreds of years before Jesus was born yet Jesus fulfilled every one of them. Our Lord is yet alive and at the right hand of God the Father, waiting for the command to bring His Bride home. Oh, what a day that will be! The entire world will know and realize that the Bible and its prophecies are true and they will tremble because of it.

I pray that all who read this will seek Jesus as your Savior while you have the time to do so. This life is the only time that we have to make that decision. There is no second chance for your salvation.

Are you ready for His return?

Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not. Luke 12:40 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/luk.12.40/67204

Have faith…

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/heb.11.1/1197

God will supply your needs

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19 KJV https://bible.com/bible/1/php.4.19.KJV

In our lives there are days that it seems like there’s no end to the number of things going wrong. The best news is that God is there with us every step of the way. We are never alone when we have God in our hearts and follow Him every day.

Seek Him for your salvation and as your Guide through your life because you can’t make the journey alone.

Pray about everything

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Philippians 4:6 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/php.4.6/460

Be grateful even in trials

And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. Romans 5:3‭-‬5 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/rom.5.3-5/48446

Christmas

Most of the Christian world waits for this holiday all year, but what does it mean to you? For some, it means lots of presents and all sorts of getting together with family. For others, it is just another holiday and for some, it is just another day on the calendar. We celebrate the birth of Jesus at this time of year but Jewish historians place His birth during the Feast of Tabernacles during September/October. Truly it doesn’t matter when you celebrate our Savior’s birth as long as you know Him as your Savior.

The Son of God was the first gift given to all of us and all we have to do is accept it when we know that we truly need it. God calls us by His Holy Spirit to convict us that we can’t get to heaven without faith in Jesus and we should accept the gift given by His grace. It is a gift given to you by the Creator of everything. Isn’t He more important than your Mom or even Santa Clause?

The gift that Jesus gave to us is more valuable than all of the money in the whole world so shouldn’t we treasure it above everything else? I do.

Come, let us worship

O come, let us worship and bow down: Let us kneel before the LORD our maker. Psalm 95:6 KJV https://bible.com/verse-of-the-day/psa.95.6/10809

There was always a plan…

Each of us was known to God from the beginning. He has known you and your choices since before the Earth was created. He chose each of us to be His at that time and He knew when we would come to Him. He also knew beforehand each ability that each of us would have and what we would be able to do for His Kingdom. Could we refuse to be His? We could but eventually, His will would bring us to the point of giving our life to Him.

I felt the call to give my life to Him over thirty-eight years ago and I refused to go in that direction. But, twenty-two years ago He got my attention by bringing my son into the world and convicting me of my need to be an example to this child. Granted, I haven’t been a perfect example and I doubt that many people think they have been a perfect example for their children. We can only be a good example for our children if we are following Jesus and trying to be more like Him.

God has a plan for us and all you have to do is ask Him if you haven’t found your plan or your path. He will show it to you. Listen to His teachings from His Word, read it and study it and ask Him to reveal it to you and He will do it. God has been waiting for all of us to come to Him in surrendering to His call. You may not be a preacher or a teacher but you can be a Christian and be an example before your family or your co-workers.

God knows how well you can perform in His Kingdom because He can see your future and all of those that you will have an impact on in some way. God loves you and every human being on this planet, whether they know Him or not and He can use your influence to touch each person in some way and bring some of them into His family. Seek Him and His path for your life. Just ask Him to show it to you and He will and you may influence the next evangelist that touches millions of people.
