Our LORD JESUS in the Old Testament!

 Dearest Christ followers, our LORD JESUS is often referenced in the Old Testament.  This Psalm quite clearly gives us a picture of our LORD JESUS.

I find it extremely heart breaking to read the suffering our LORD JESUS endured for my sake.  To save me, a wretch like me, from my sins.

If you too, find this so, it is time do some soul searching.

Are we living our lives like children of JESUS?  Are we bringing glory to JESUS in all we think, all we say and all we do?

Or are we continuing in our sin?  Disregarding what JESUS did for you and I? 

We cannot imagine dying for sinful people when we are totally innocent.  We cannot imagine dying for people that we do not know.

So let us today do some introspection and then repent and start to live our lives for JESUS, who loves us and died a terrible death for us.  To save us from eternity in hell.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I cry when I think what JESUS suffered for me.  FATHER forgive me and help me to live a better life that brings glory to YOU.  I humbly pray this in the HOLY name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay humbly JESUS Blessed today!

The LORD shall preserve you from all evil!

 Dearest Christ followers, we serve the most faithful CREATOR FATHER.  Our FATHER has given us HIS WORD, the Bible, that is full of verses showing us how much HE loves and cares for all of us.

We have so many opportunities on earth to show GOD our love and faithfulness in response to this love that HE lavishes on us.

But do we take those opportunities?  Do we give our FATHER the thanks and the glory due to HIM?

We need to thank GOD all the time for all that HE gives us. 

Imagine if we woke up tomorrow morning with only the things that we gave thanks for today?

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, today, I thank YOU for all that YOU have done for me.  The great love that YOU lavish on me each and every day.  The forgiveness of my sins.  The grace that abounds in every aspect of my life.  The love I have from family and friends and the love that I can give to YOU and to them.

FATHER, I honour YOU.  I praise YOU.  I adore YOU.  Thank YOU that you preserve me from evil and that YOU preserve my soul.  Thank YOU that preserve my going out and my coming in.  I thank YOU in the HOLY name of JESUS CHRIST.  AMEN.

Stay thankfully JESUS Blessed today!

The LORD is my Shepherd!

 Dearest Christ followers, when we feel that the whole world is completely off its rocker, it is time to pick up the Bible and read Psalm 23.

When we accept JESUS as our LORD and SAVIOUR, we are never alone again.  We have THE SHEPHERD.  Not any shepherd.  We have JESUS who will never leave us nor forsake us.

HE leads us to the path of righteousness. 

We need fear nothing.

HE prepares a table for us in the presence of our enemies.  Our cups run over with HIS goodness and HIS mercy.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives and we will dwell in the house of our LORD forever.

Amazing GRACE from GOD our FATHER!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER I thank YOU for YOUR goodness and YOUR mercy.  I thank YOU that I shall dwell in YOUR house for ever.  I humbly thank YOU in the Holy Name of JESUS CHRIST.  AMEN.

Stay graciously JESUS blessed today!

Humble ourselves before GOD!

 Dear Christ followers, we serve a mighty HOLY RIGHTEOUS GOD.  Our GOD will lift us up in due time if we humble ourselves to HIS Will for our lives.

Obviously, as we humble ourselves to our FATHER, HE takes care of us.  Therefore, we are advised to cast our cares upon HIM, as HE cares for us.

This is hard, but good advice.  We are so used to using our free will to determine our path in our lives, but our FATHER knows what is best for us.

The harder we struggle against submission to HIM, the more HE needs to refine us and the harder our paths become.

What we need to do is to surrender fully to our FATHER in Heaven and let HIS WILL be done in our lives, as it is in Heaven.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly pray that THY WILL and not my will be done in my life.  I humbly pray this in the Holy name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay humbly JESUS blessed today!

Our eternal hope in Heaven!

 Dearest Christ followers, our eternity is in Heaven with our FATHER.  This life is transient and short in comparison to eternity.

This is why Paul advises that we not fix our eyes on the things of this earth, but rather focus on our eternity.

This does not mean that we ought not to enjoy our time on earth, but rather that we not make the things of this world our sole purpose in life. 

This is why it is so important to get to know our FATHER on a personal and intimate level where we can trust in the eternal hope.

We are promised a marvelous life in Heaven. There will be no more sorrow, no more pain, no more suffering.

And the best of all, we get to spend our days with our FATHER and JESUS and the HOLY SPIRIT in Heaven.

JESUS has gone before us to prepare a place for us.  I personally cannot wait to see what is prepared for us. Maranatha LORD JESUS!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly pray that YOU fill me anew today with YOUR HOLY SPIRIT.  FATHER, I pray that I keep my eyes fixed on the things in YOUR Heaven, rather than the things of this earth.

I humbly pray this in the HOLY name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay amazingly JESUS Blessed today!

Who nailed Jesus to the Cross?

 Dearest Christ followers, the question of who crucified Jesus arose the other day in a family discussion.

It was mooted that the Romans crucified Jesus.

No, dearest Christ followers, you and I nailed Jesus to that Cross and kept HIM there until HE gave up HIS life for you and I.

That is the simple truth.

There is no person on earth who is good or without sin.  And every sin you and I have ever committed nailed Jesus to that Cross.

HE died for you and me. 

That is the simple truth and until we acknowledge this, and it grieves us deeply, we cannot truly call ourselves co heirs of Jesus Christ. 

Today let us consider the sins we have committed.  Let us repent of them and not continue in them.  

Each time we sin again, we have more responsibility in the crucifixion of our SAVIOUR.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for YOUR Grace and favour.  FATHER, today, fill me anew with YOUR Holy Spirit to convict me when I sin.  FATHER, forgive me and show me how to be more like JESUS each and every day.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay faithfully JESUS blessed today!

Jesus is the LIGHT of the world!

 Dearest Christ followers, we are so privileged to serve our GOD.  HE gave us HIS grace freely to save us from eternity in hell.

JESUS is the light and we walk in that light.

This is why it is so important to repent of our sinful ways, which are a part of the darkness of this world.

Once we have accepted Jesus Christ as our SAVIOUR, no longer can we continue to do things which are a part of the darkness.

Now we have the light of life and HE is JESUS.  Our LORD, SAVIOUR and our LIGHT!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, thank YOU for the LIGHT of this world, JESUS CHRIST.  I thank YOU in the HOLY name of my LORD, my SAVIOUR, my REDEEMER, my LIGHT.  Amen.

Stay radiantly blessed today!

We can obtain mercy from GOD!

Dearest Christ followers, when we are in need, we need to pray.  Through our faith in prayer, we can come boldly to the throne of grace to obtain mercy from GOD in our times of need.

I have followed the news for a number of years, and I find it interesting that almost all survivors of tragic events, prayed.

I am not saying that people who succumbed to tragic events did not pray, but in most cases, survivors recount that they prayed.

I watched the story of an elderly couple who were attacked on their farm recently here in South Africa.

The lady said she prayed to GOD from the minute the attackers entered her home.

They were injured, but they survived.

As Christ followers, when we find ourselves in any situation, let us pray to GOD.  HE is always listening to us.  HIS Grace is sufficient for us.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU that I may approach the throne of grace boldly.  FATHER, I thank YOU that YOU are a just, merciful FATHER who freely grants us YOUR grace through our belief in YOUR Son JESUS CHRIST.  I thank YOU in the Holy Name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay graciously JESUS Blessed today!

Nothing is hidden from GOD!

 Our FATHER is Omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent.  Now we have probably heard these words so many times.  But do we fully comprehend our FATHER.

Our FATHER does not live in our time constraints. HE can be everywhere at once.  HE can see everything.  HE knows everything.

GOD reads our hearts. This is why it is so important to get our faith from our heads to our hearts.

We need to understand that we serve an incomparable FATHER. 

This is why we need to take every thought captive.  Examine our thoughts and if they are out with of GOD's plan for our lives, we need to discard them immediately.  If we are acting in a manner that would displease our FATHER, we need to stop it immediately.  

Being a Christ follower comes with a responsibility to live our lives in a manner that glorifies GOD, not ourselves.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, thank YOU for YOUR grace that I could become a Christ follower.  Help me today to live my life in such a way that it gives glory YOU FATHER.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay faithfully JESUS blessed today!

The WORD of GOD!

 Dearest Christ followers, the more I read my Bible, the more I find, the Bible endorses itself.

I often watch Chuck Missler on the inerrancy of the Bible and I am posting the link at the bottom of this blog.

The WORD of GOD is true and just.  GOD has confirmed the Scriptures over and over again throughout the Bible.  HE breathed the Scriptures into the people HE used to pen them.  

Even satan quoted the Scriptures when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness. 

We need to know that we serve the CREATOR of the entire universe.  HE has given a history book with a clear prophecy of Heaven and hell.  HE has outlined the past for us and has further given us the future HE has planned for this earth and indeed, the universe.

What we need to do is to read the Bible.  But first, we need to pray to GOD to open the eyes of our hearts to read with understanding.  Looking forward to eternity.  The eternity we will spend with our CREATOR FATHER, if we have repented and if we have taken Jesus as our LORD and SAVIOUR.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for YOUR inerrant, infallible and totally true Bible that I can read whenever I want.  FATHER, I humbly pray that YOU open the eyes of my heart whenever I read YOUR WORD and give me a clear understanding of YOUR plan for our lives.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay truthfully Jesus Blessed today!

THE BIBLE IS TRUE AND ACCURATE Part 1 of 2 - Chuck Missler (youtube.com)

Our FATHER knows what we need!

 Dearest Christ followers, Jesus gave us very sound advice.  If we first seek the Kingdom of GOD and we seek HIS righteousness, we do not have to worry about our needs.

Our FATHER knows us better than anyone we will ever meet on this earth.  HE knitted us together in our mother's womb.  HE knows the number of hairs on our heads.

But our FATHER wants us to learn to know HIM.  To trust HIM and to leave all our plans to HIM. 

If we seek the righteousness of GOD we start to understand the magnitude of the FATHER we serve.  We start to understand that our FATHER will never leave us nor forsake us.  

The best part is our FATHER knows our needs, so we do not have to worry.  When we are in a relationship with our FATHER where HE is first. last and in between, HE takes care of our needs. 

Do not be side-tracked by the things of this earth.  Get right with GOD first!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU that YOU know me and FATHER I trust YOU with my life.  I humbly pray this in the HOLY Name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay faithfully Jesus Blessed today! 

GOD's mercies endure forever!

 Dearest Christ followers, I am so very grateful to our FATHER today.  The number of times HE answers my prayers is truly unbelievable.

Do not get me wrong, a lot of my prayers go unanswered, but then I know that they are not GOD's will and I also know that had they been answered, things might have turned out very differently and not in a good way.

Today, however, let us celebrate our FATHER who is good, and gracious, and loving and merciful and kind and just.  HIS mercies endure forever.

Thank YOU, FATHER!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I come to YOU today in humility that YOU answer my prayers.  I love YOU, FATHER.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay gratefully JESUS blessed today!

Every good gift and every perfect gift comes down from ABOVE!

 Dearest Christ followers, we serve a mighty, gracious, HOLY, loving and just FATHER.

Without asking, our FATHER gives us our lives on earth.  HE gives us the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars.  HE gives us our food to eat and HE gives us the clothes we wear.

HE gives us our children, our family and our friends.  Most of all HE freely gives us HIS love.  HE gives us the opportunity to spend eternity with HIM if we will only repent and believe in JESUS as our REDEEMER.

What do we give HIM?

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, we humbly thank YOU for all that YOU have given us and YOUR love.  FATHER thank YOU for my SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST.  I pray that YOU give me an attitude of gratitude for all that YOU have given me.  I humbly pray this in the HOLY Name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay gratefully JESUS Blessed today!

Truly love GOD

 Dearest Christ followers, when we truly love our FATHER, we want to please HIM.  Pleasing HIM means true repentance and then wanting to keep HIS commandments.

When we stray away, we are showing our FATHER that our love for HIM is not all encompassing.  It is also indicative of us wanting to be in charge of our own lives and not wanting GOD in charge.

This is why John says that true loves means walking in obedience.

Let us try to love GOD in such a complete way that HIS commandments are etched on our hearts.  Let us put GOD in charge of our lives at every point.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I love YOU with all my heart, all my soul and all my strength.  Today help me FATHER to keep all YOUR commandments and show YOU that I truly love YOU above all else.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay faithfully Jesus Blessed today!

Turn your eyes upon JESUS!

 Dearest Christ followers our time on this earth is a blink.  It does not feel that way whilst we are living here.  But in comparative terms of eternity our lives pass away so quickly.

Most of us are so busy trying to keep afloat on this earth that we scarcely think about our eternal home with JESUS.

But we are going to spend eternity there.  That is, if we have chosen to accept the grace of GOD given to us freely when we accept Jesus as our LORD and SAVIOUR.  When we have repented of our sins.

What is our home in Heaven going to look like?

Instead of concentrating so much time and effort on our time on earth, let us dwell on JESUS and imagine life in Heaven.  No more tears, no more suffering.  No more death.

Just JESUS and GOD and the HOLY SPIRIT and loved ones who accepted Jesus.

And our place has been prepared for us by JESUS, so it will be wonderful.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for YOUR grace and favour.  Help me to keep my eyes on JESUS and let the things of this earth grow strangely dim.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay graciously JESUS BLESSED today!

No other gods!

 

Dearest Christ followers we serve an amazing gracious FATHER.  However we are commanded to have no other gods.

What does this mean?  It means we are not to have any other gods that we serve.  This is a commandment.  Not a suggestion. Money can be a god.  Family can be a god.  Cars can be a god.  Our careers can be a god.  Our homes can be a god.

Our FATHER is interested in our eternal life.  This is why we are commanded by our FATHER to have no other gods.  To serve HIM only.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER. I humbly pray that you give me heart for YOU only.  Where I stay and start to make worldly things my focus help me to shift my focus back to YOU.  I humbly ask this in the Holy Name of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay graciously Jesus Blessed today!

GOD's mercies are new every morning

 Dearest Christ followers, we serve a truly compassionate, caring and loving FATHER.

In Lamentations, we read that our FATHER's compassions fail not.  They are new every morning.

This means that each and every day we have a new chance to "get right" with our FATHER, then we can start afresh.

This is the GRACE of GOD.  Our FATHER will always listen to a contrite spirit, a remorseful heart, a true repentance.

What we need to do is to start each and every day by communing with our FATHER.  We do not know the number of our days, and any day could be our last on earth.  And the last day to get right with our FATHER.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU that YOUR mercies are new every day.  FATHER I humbly ask that YOU fill me anew with YOUR Holy Spirit and I am truly sorry for any sins that I may have committed yesterday.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  My LORD and my SAVIOUR.  Amen.

Stay graciously Jesus Blessed today!

Jesus is with us!

 Dearest Christ followers, we are never alone.  We have nothing to fear because Jesus with us.

All we have to do is to reach up and catch hold of HIS Hand.

Jesus, when HE walked on the water to reach HIS disciples in the early hours of the morning, were terrified.

But Jesus told them not to be afraid, HE was with them.

We have to have the same love for Jesus that HE has for each one of us and HE wants us close to HIM.  We have to draw close to HIM because HE is always within our reach.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I know that with YOU, I have nothing to fear.  YOU will never leave me, nor forsake me. And YOU have overcome the world.  I humbly thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay amazingly Jesus blessed today!

GOD is not mocked!

 Dear Christ followers, we are warned here in this verse to not be deceived.  And the great deceiver is the devil who always twists the truth.

What we are told here is that as we reap, so shall we sow.  In other words we are to do unto each other as we would have others do unto us.

However, the devil sows the lie that GOD is not keeping record and that GOD is not omniscient.

This is patently a lie.

Therefore, let us be warned that GOD sees ALL, knows ALL and is ALL.  GOD IS EVERYWHERE and GOD will punish us for our sins.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I worship YOU.  I honour YOU.  I adore YOU.  FATHER help me to not be deceived.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay amazingly Jesus Blessed today!

Trust in the everlasting strength of the LORD!

 Dearest Christ followers, the arm of the LORD is not too short for anything.  What we need to do is to put our trust in our FATHER who can do anything.

Our FATHER is greater than anything on this earth or indeed, in the universe.  This is because HE is the CREATOR of everything.

If our FATHER created the entire universe and all that is in it, then we are in the best of hands.

Our situations, no matter what they are, is a tiny microcosm for our FATHER.  We need to have faith that our GOD is bigger than all the problems we may ever face.

Today let us put our hope, our faith and trust in our GLORIOUS FATHER in Heaven.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, all my hope, my trust and my faith is in YOU.  I know that YOU are bigger than all my problems.  FATHER, help me today to know that YOU are my everlasting strength.  I humbly pray this in the HOLY NAME of JESUS CHRIST.  Amen.

Stay faithfully Jesus Blessed today!

Small is the gate to life!

Dearest Christ followers Jesus states in the passage above that the gate to life is narrow and that few will find it.

Unfortunately, a lot of people want to believe that GOD will forgive us when we get into Heaven and that we do on earth does not matter.

If this is the case, then why did Jesus not simply wait in Heaven to forgive us of our sins?

Why did Jesus have to come to earth to die on that Cross for us?

We only have our time on earth to accept Jesus as our LORD and our SAVIOUR. We serve a HOLY, JUST GOD and it would not have been necessary for Jesus to come to earth if there was no punishment for our sins on earth.

This is why it is so important to repent.  To turn away from our sins.  To accept Jesus Christ as our SAVIOUR on earth.

We may not have tomorrow, but a lot of people are depending upon the "love" of GOD to forgive if they reach Heaven sooner than they expect. 

Tomorrow is not guaranteed.  Repent today, turn from sin and accept Jesus.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I accept Jesus as my LORD and SAVIOUR.  FATHER help me to stay on the path to life everlasting with YOU.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay amazingly Jesus blessed today!

  

The LORD reads our hearts!

Dear Christ followers do not be deceived.  

One of the greatest lies that the devil feeds people is that GOD cannot be everywhere.  The devil whispers to those who are doing wrong, "GOD does not know everything, HE does not see your heart."

This is a lie.  This is the greatest lie ever.  GOD sees everything.  GOD know everything.  GOD is in all.  GOD is over all, and GOD knows our every thought.

When we are sitting thinking about anything, GOD knows it.

Never underestimate the might and power, omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscience of our FATHER.

Sin is not performed away from the sight of our GOD.  

Every single sin on earth has been watched by GOD.

GOD has given us all free will, because HE loves us.  However, this does not mean that GOD is unaware of what we do.

This is why it is so important to repent, because GOD knows all the sins we have ever committed. True repentance is a complete about turn on our sinful ways.  It is a remorseful heart, a change of mind to making us "better" people, more like Christ.

Again, I say, do not be deceived.  GOD has seen it all!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ that YOU have seen everything I have done and that YOU know everything that I have ever done.  FATHER, help me to be truly remorseful where I have committed any sin.  FATHER show me how to be more like Jesus every day and how to turn my life away from sinning.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay amazingly Jesus Blessed today!

The LORD gives us rest!

 Dearest Christ followers, the LORD promised to give HIS people rest and that HIS presence would go with them.

We need to understand that our FATHER is ever present.  HE is watching us all the time, waiting for us to commune with HIM.

We are never alone.  With the acceptance of Jesus Christ as our REDEEMER, we need never be afraid because our FATHER is bigger than anything we can ever face.

When we know this deep down, our FATHER gives us rest.  It is the greatest comfort to know that our FATHER has overcome the world.

Today let us praise and worship our FATHER in Heaven for HIS power, HIS majesty, HIS grace and HIS mercy.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly thank YOU that YOU give me rest in the sure knowledge that YOU are with me in every situation that I find myself.  I thank YOU in the HOLY Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay amazingly Jesus Blessed today!

We dwell in safety in the LORD!

 Dearest Christ followers, when we trust in our LORD, we can sleep peacefully at night.  Our FATHER is with us always.

HE will never leave us nor forsake us.  No matter what situation we find ourselves in, we are never alone.

And we serve a MIGHT FATHER, whose arm is never too short.

We know our FATHER, but more importantly, HE knows us.  HE knows our going out and our coming in.  HE sees all.  HE knows all and HE is ever present with us.

Today, put your faith, your hope and your trust in our glorious FATHER in Heaven.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly pray that YOU still my heart and give me YOUR peace in all situations.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  My SAVIOUR.  Amen.

Stay peacefully Jesus Blessed today!

The ultimate guide to living our lives - found in GOD!

 Dearest Christ followers, the WORD is so very valuable in determining how we should live our lives.

GOD has shown us what is good and HE requires that we do justice, love kindness and walk humbly with our FATHER.

Once we adopt these principles in all that we think, say and do, we are on the right path.

Do not be deceived.  GOD sees all.  GOD knows all and GOD is ALL.

The devil tries to deceive us by sending these small thoughts into our heads that GOD is not Omniscient, not Omnipotent, and not Omnipresent.

These are lies.  Our FATHER is ever present with us throughout our lives.  Let us live with this in mind and walk according to what is good.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly pray that I walk in justice, love kindness and walk humbly with YOU.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay truthfully Jesus Blessed today!

Walk in truth!

Dearest Christ followers, we are children of GOD.  We are co heirs with Jesus Christ of the Kingdom of Heaven.

We are truly blessed by the Grace of GOD!

Therefore, having freely been given the Grace of GOD, and justified by the blood of Jesus spent for our sins, paid in full on the Cross of Calvary, we are required to walk in truth.

Our repentance is not just saying sorry to GOD.  It is not a lip service.  It requires a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree mind change about the lives we have lived.

We should know that on our own there is no possible way that we could ever have entered into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Now, having received the Grace of GOD, we are to walk in truth.  Becoming different people from the way we were.  We are to change our minds completely about the sins that we committed and know to the depths of our souls that we are sinners, desperately in need of our SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU for YOUR grace and favour.  FATHER I humbly pray that YOU show me the way to walk in Truth.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  My LORD, my SAVIOUR.  Amen.

Stay truthfully Jesus Blessed today!

Life or death through the Spirit!

Dear Christ followers, we are to live our lives knowing that Jesus is our SAVIOUR! This means that we give up on our previous lives.  No longer can we go about as we did before, acting and behaving as we did before.

Now that we are in Jesus, we have the HOLY SPIRIT living in us.

Our focus needs to shift from the things of this world to our future with GOD in Heave.

This is a radical shift and if we are truly in Jesus, it will be a noticeable shift. 

As Paul writes to the Romans, if we are carnally minded, that is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 

We only have two choices in death.  Do we spend eternity in Heaven or hell?

When we accept Jesus, we need to repent, to become true children of GOD, co heirs with Jesus.

This assures us eternal life in Heaven with our ABBA FATHER.

Prayer: ABBA FATHER, I humbly praise YOU, I worship YOU and I adore YOU.  Help me to be spiritually minded in all areas of my life.  Help me to be convicted by the Holy Spirit every time I sin.  I humbly thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay spiritually Jesus Blessed today!

Praise be to the GOD and FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST!

Dearest Christ followers, we need to praise our FATHER in Heaven.  We need to praise HIM in the morning, praise HIM at noon and praise HIM in the evening.

Our lives need to reflect the glory of GOD.

This means we have a responsibility to act in a manner that glorifies GOD.

We cannot conform to the things of this world.

We need to be separate.  We can do this by concentrating our days to the glory of GOD.

Daily, we need to read the WORD.  Hourly we need to be in prayer.  We need to ask our FATHER for wisdom. We need to take all our plans and all our problems to our FATHER.  Then we need to wait upon the LORD for HIM to reveal HIS plans for our lives.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I praise YOU, I worship YOU and I thank YOU for all that I have and all that I am.  FATHER guide me in all that I say and do and let me shine YOUR light on this world wherever I may go.  I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay thankfully Jesus Blessed today!

GOD rested on the 7th day!

 Dearest Christ followers, I am one of those people who takes every single word of the Bible literally.

Therefore, I believe that GOD created the entire universe and all that is in it in seven days.

We need to right size our FATHER.  We cannot create life.  We cannot create a planet or a star.

Also, I do not believe that nothing and nothing crashed into nothing and out of all that chaos we begot the universe.

Everything in our universe is orderly and that indicates a master designer, intelligent and supremely capable.  The true size of GOD cannot be measured, neither HIS intelligence nor HIS might.  But most importantly, neither can any of us measure up to HIS Holiness and HIS reverence, HIS justice, HIS mercy, HIS goodness and the great love HE has for you and me.

Today, let us know that our GOD is CREATOR and HE is to be trusted fully and worshiped with all our hearts, all our souls and all our minds.

GOD created everything in six days and then HE rested on the seventh day, HE blessed the seventh day, and it is HOLY!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I humbly thank YOU that YOU are the CREATOR of all.  Thank YOU for YOUR grace and favour.  I humbly thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay graciously Jesus Blessed today!

God is our refuge and our strength!

 Dearest Christ followers, we are so blessed to serve our FATHER in Heaven.

This Psalm encompasses all the virtues of our FATHER in Heaven.

Whenever we feel weak, our FATHER is strong.  Whenever we fear, our FATHER is near.  As our FATHER can do anything, we have nothing to fear.

So let us see what our FATHER has done, let us step outside at night and look at all the stars or step outside in the morning and watch the sunrise. 

Our FATHER says:

"Be still and know that I am GOD; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"

Today, let us be still and know that our FATHER is GOD!

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I worship YOU, I honour YOU and I adore YOU.  YOU are my all in all! FATHER I humbly thank YOU that I can be still and know that YOU are indeed, my GOD!

I thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay graciously Jesus blessed today!
