I bring you peace and love from the most high God and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I pray that it is well with you all. I would like to encourage you all to keep the faith. Do not give up and hold on a little longer there is blessing at the end of your storm. Hebrews 12:2 says looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of GOD. I know that it seems like there is no end to your heartache, pain, distress, despair, grief and agony, but you must hold on it will make you stronger and wiser. James 3:17 says the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
I thank GOD that He always shows up for me. When I look back and see where he brought me from I just have to thank him. I remember in my youth how He protected me. I was not saved as yet but He covered me. I am here to tell you there is power in the name of Jesus… Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is the Lord. There is so much power in the name of Jesus. James 4:7 says, “Submit yourselves therefore to GOD. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Even if you are not saved, life beats you down and you are thinking of quitting, but you call and that wonderful name of Jesus, the demons that had taken control of your life will cease at the mention of the name Jesus. Demons know Jesus, and by you calling his name they flee from you. John 5:27a says, “And hath given him authority to execute judgment…” Jesus’s name commands authority. That is why you have to get saved because after demons flee, they come back stronger to try and take over if you are not in him; that is your escape! When you are in him and filled with him, there is no demon or devil willing to near you. Demons will use your unsaved friends and family to attack your faith. When you are in Christ, Jesus fights your battle. Thank you Jesus!!! Thank you Jesus!!!
The evil one attacks our character thru ones closest to us to discredit us and void our witness. I am here to tell you, “On Christ the solid rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand. Does anyone want to join me on the Rock??? Romans 4:5 says, “But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.” Without faith we are most miserable. Hebrews 11:6 says, “Without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to GOD must believe that he is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Abraham’s faith was counted towards him as righteousness. Thank you Jesus!!!
This life I am living is not mine; the world didn’t give it to me. The Lord lent it to me, at the appointed time he will claim it as his own. So I am charged to keeping it clean, holy and acceptable, so my Lord can use my life whenever he needs, and get the glory out of it. Living is easy, if it was, we would not have been chosen by GOD to praise him. Yes we have choices but they are for us to serve GOD.
My children may not understand the way I serve GOD or why, but they notice that I am serving GOD. The lesson I am teaching and showing them and anyone who can see me is of faith and service to my GOD. Personally, I didn’t have to search all over, to find anyone greater than him; Truth be told, I didn’t even search, he found me. He had me when he died to save me. I thank GOD that he refines me and makes me better equipped to worship him, adore him, and praise him. Romans 8:1-2 says, “There is therefore no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” This walk that we who are saved are on, We Need Jesus with us.
PRAISE THE LORD SAINTS!!! PRAISE THE LORD SAINTS!!!
