A FAMILY (a reminder)

-
We have family! we become a member of this family, because of Grace that came from God to a people whom He created for Himself.

 However (man) who choose to test the otherside, thinking it was freedom,  but alas no,  it was to sell the birthright to the one who envied man and wanted to see him fall.

Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"

Man was created independent with power to choose and to have dominion over all creatures and things created. Yet needed to be sustained by a power because he was a spirit being and was created to draw life from God's Spirit.

Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

We lost it when we succumed to the devils tricks and wanted to be like God, just as he, the devil tried to do.

One difference though, no redemption for the devil.

Man had redemption

Why, he had a body of flesh and as long as he had a perishable body there was hope for him, he could do something about his spirit before he died. He could recieve life.

Genesis 3:22
Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"--

Hebrews 9:27
And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment,

If we had dared eaten of that tree after our death there would have been no hope for us!

Oh God really loved us!!!

So we could have redemption and that is Why God allowed His Word that is His Son, that is His bodily form to come to save man that we could be part of His family again. An extention of Himself.

John 3:16
 "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

As many that have believed and received life through God's Word, Yeshau, Jesus the Christ, is a family and has received life, with the direct access to the Father.

Hebrews 4:16
 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

If you have been born again let no one put you in any form of bondage anymore!

If you are yet to receive Him, please what are you waiting for?

Do worship with this joy today with the brethren.

You are family with God the Almighty.

Glory to God!!!

We are blessed.

Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same
