DEAR FRIENDS, LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER, FOR LOVE COMES FROM GOD. EVERYONE WHO LOVES HAS BEEN BORN OF GOD AND KNOWS GOD. (1 John 4:7)
WE ARE GOD'S HANDS AND FEET IN THE WORLD, GOD WANTS US TO CARE ABOUT PEOPLE BECAUSE GOD CARES ABOUT PEOPLE. GOD WANTS ALL HIS PEOPLE TO KNOW GOD'S JOY AND GOD'S PEACE AND GOD'S LOVE. GOD WANTS TO RESTORE GOODNESS FOR ALL CREATION. DON'T LET ANYTHING COME BEFORE GOD.
TODAY WE ARE SO DIVIDED BECAUSE OUR ENEMY THE DEVIL HAS BLINDED US FROM THE TRUTH THAT THE DEVIL IS THE SOURCE OF ALL EVIL. SO WHEN EVIL HAPPENS IN THE WORLD REMEMBER EVIL BELONGS TO THE DEVIL, NOT TO BLAME EACH OTHER FOR WHAT DEVIL IS CAUSING TO HAPPEN. WE MUST HOLD EACH OTHER ACCOUNTABLE FOR OUR OWN ACTIONS.
BUT I TELL YOU: LOVE YOUR ENEMIES AND PRAY FOR THOSE WHO PERSECUTE YOU, THAT YOU MAY BE SONS OF YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. GOD CAUSES HIS SUN TO RISE ON THE EVIL AND THE GOOD, AND SENDS RAIN ON THE RIGHTEOUS AND THE UNRIGHTEOUS. (Matthew 5:44-45)
THE WORD OF GOD HAS POWER OVER THE DEVIL. WHEN JESUS WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL; JESUS ANSWERED "IT IS WRITTEN" THEN QUOTED THE WORD OF GOD. THE WRITTEN WORD HAS THE POWER TO DEFEAT THE DEVIL AND ALL HIS EVIL FORCES. I INVOKE THE WORD OF GOD IN THE WORLD TODAY BY SPEAKING THE WORD OUT OF MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART, BACK IN MY MOUTH INTO MY HEART. THIS IS A DIVINE CYCLE THAT POWERS GOD'S WORD.
CAN I GET AN AMEN FROM ALL WHO CALL ON GOD. AMEN!
THE DEVIL IS OUR ENEMY, THE DEVIL WANTS TO STEAL OUR JOY IN JESUS, KILL OUR HOPE IN JESUS, AND TO DESTROY OUR FAITH IN JESUS. WE ARE CHILDREN OF GOD, AND GOD WILL USE US TO CHANGE THE WORLD. ALL WE KNOW IS JESUS CHRIST AND CHRIST CRUCIFIED, JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SINS AND THROUGH JESUS CHRIST WE HAVE A RECONCILED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD "NOW" THIS PRESENT MOMENT.
THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, AND THE ESSENCE OF THE ONE GOD IS, GOD IS ALL POWERFUL, GOD IS ALL KNOWING, GOD IS EVERYWHERE AT ONCE. GOD REVEALS HIMSELF TO US IN THE SCRIPTURES AS THE ALL POWERFUL FATHER GOD, THE ALL KNOWING JESUS GOD, AND THE PRESENT EVERYWHERE AT ONCE HOLY SPIRIT GOD. I GO TO GOD EVERYDAY FOR SPIRITUAL PROCESSING THROUGH THE ESSENCE OF PRAYER.
GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY CREATE IN US A PURE HEART O GOD AND RENEW A STEADFAST SPIRIT WITHIN US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY DO NOT CAST US FROM YOUR PRESCENCE OR TAKE YOUR HOLY SPIRIT FROM US. GOD WE ASK AND WE PRAY RESTORE TO US THE JOY OF YOUR SPIRITUAL SALVATION AND GRANT US A WILLING SPIRIT TO SUSTAIN US. THEN GOD WE WILL TEACH TRANSGRESSOR YOUR WAYS AND SINNERS WILL TURN BACK TO YOU. (Psalms 51:10-13)
GOD WE ARE BELIEVING CONTINUALLY IN JESUS WORDS, AND GOD WE BIND THE POWER OF THE DEVIL AND GOD WE RELEASE YOUR POWER IN THE EARTH. BECAUSE GOD YOU ARE WORKING IN US AND THROUGH US EVERYDAY!
SO I SAY GOD YOU ARE THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS AND GOD THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS TO US IS OUR SPIRITUAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU! AMEN.
I DEMONSTRATE MY LOVE FOR GOD BY PRAYING GOD'S LOVING WORDS TO HIM. THIS IS THE TRUTH I STAND UNDER. GOD'S LOVE FOR ME IS GOD'S WORDS TO ME! AND I RENEW THAT LOVE DAILY!
"THIS IS THE COVENANT I WILL MAKE WITH THEM AFTER THAT TIME, SAYS THE LORD. I WILL PUT MY LAWS IN THEIR HEARTS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM ON THEIR MINDS." THEN GOD ADDS: "THEIR SINS AND LAWLESS ACTS I WILL REMEMBER NO MORE."(Hebrews 10:16-17)
WE HAVE NO GOOD APART FROM GOD. THAT MAKES JESUS' CALL TO FOLLOW HIM AN INVITATION TO FREEDOM. THIS IS FREEDOM TO REVEL IN THE SPIRIT'S FRUIT: LOVE, JOY, PEACE, AND PATIENCE. THIS IS FREEDOM TO NOT BE IMPRISONED BY ANYTHING THAT WOULD KEEP US FROM THE FULLNESS OF THE LIFE GOD HAS GIVEN US. THIS IS THE PATH OF LIFE.
TODAY I HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD, GOD HAS PUT HIS LAWS IN MY HEART AND GOD HAS WROTE THEM ON MY MIND. MY COVENANT WITH GOD IS MY PERSONAL PATHWAY TO GOD. BY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF THIS COVENANT OUT OF MY MOUTH BACK INTO MY HEART IT STRENGTHEN MY FAITH.
BROTHERS, MY HEART'S DESIRE AND PRAYER TO GOD FOR THE ISRAELITES IS THAT THEY MAY BE SAVED. FOR I CAN TESTIFY ABOUT THEM THAT THEY ARE ZEALOUS FOR GOD, BUT THEIR ZEAL IS NOT BASED ON KNOWLEDGE. SINCE THEY DID NOT KNOW THE RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT COMES FROM GOD AND SOUGHT TO ESTABLISH THEIR OWN, THEY DID NOT SUBMIT TO GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS.
CHRIST IS THE END OF THE LAW SO THAT THERE MAY BE RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR EVERYONE WHO BELIEVES. MOSES DESCRIBES IN THIS WAY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT IS BY LAW: "THE MAN WHO DOES THESE THINGS WILL LIVE BY THEM." BUT THE RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT IS BY FAITH SAYS: "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU; IT IS IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART," THAT IS, THE WORD OF FAITH WE ARE PROCLAIMING: THAT IF YOU CONFESS WITH YOUR MOUTH, "JESUS IS LORD," AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT GOD RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD, YOU WILL BE SAVED.
AS THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, "ANYONE WHO TRUST IN CHRIST WILL NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME." FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JEWS AND GENTILE - THE SAME LORD IS LORD OF ALL AND RICHLY BLESSES ALL WHO CALL ON HIM, FOR, "EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."
HOW THEN, CAN THEY CALL ON THE ONE THEY HAVE NOT BELIEVED IN? AND HOW CAN THEY BELIEVE IN THE ONE OF WHOM THEY HAVE NOT HEARD? AND HOW CAN THEY HEAR WITHOUT SOMEONE PREACHING TO THEM? AND HOW CAN THEY PREACH UNLESS THEY ARE SENT? AS IT IS WRITTEN, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS!"
BUT NOT ALL THE ISRAELITES ACCEPTED THE GOOD NEWS. FOR ISAIAH SAYS, "LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR MESSAGE?" CONSEQUENTLY, FAITH COMES FROM HEARING THE MESSAGE, AND THE MESSAGE IS HEARD THROUGH THE WORD OF CHRIST. (Rom.10:1-17)
I BELIEVE IN THE WORD OF CHRIST AND I SHARE THIS MESSAGE WITH WHOM EVER WILL LISTEN. I AM BRINGING THE GOOD NEWS.
"YET A TIME IS COMING AND HAS "NOW" COME WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPERS WILL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT ANF TRUTH, FOR THEY ARE THE KIND OF WORSHIPERS THE FATHER SEEKS. GOD IS SPIRIT AND GOD'S WORSHIPERS MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH." (John 4:23-24)
