WHAT THE LORD DID

-

Psalms 65:2,5

for you answer our prayers. All of us must come to you.

You faithfully answer our prayers with awesome deeds, O God our savior. 

You are the hope of everyone on earth, even those who sail on distant seas.


You know that the whole world has to answer to the Heavenly Father, no matter how far anyone tries to run from the creator, they will yet return to Him.


Psalms 139:7-8,12

I can never escape from your Spirit! 

I can never get away from your presence!

If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there.

but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. 

To you the night shines as bright as day. 

Darkness and light are the same to you.


You can do all the analogies, study all the books, follow all the sects, analyze this or that, in the end it all comes to the same thing, we return to the creator to give account and receive our final verdict. We can never hide from God.


He accomplishes this in Christ Jesus:


John 5:21-23

For just as the Father gives life to those he raises from the dead, so the Son gives life to anyone he wants.

In addition, the Father judges no one. Instead, he has given the Son absolute authority to judge,

so that everyone will honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son is certainly not honoring the Father who sent him.


Colossians 1:19-20

For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. 

He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross.


All these God accomplished in Christ Jesus!


The prophesies and revelations are all over the old testament.


No one has an excuse.


Psalms 65:3-4

Though we are overwhelmed by our sins, you forgive them all.

What joy for those you choose to bring near, those who live in your holy courts. 

What festivities await us inside your holy Temple.


Psalms 2:12

Submit to God’s royal son, or he will become angry, and you will be destroyed in the midst of all your activities— for his anger flares up in an instant. 

But what joy for all who take refuge in him!


Isaiah 7:14

All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’).


There is no wisdom in running away from or rejecting the one you will yet account to.


God has worked out our salvation, He has forgiven us our sins, He has done it, it is only for us to accept and align to Him.


Titus 2:11-14

For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people.

And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures. We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God, while we look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed.

He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds.


What more do we want from the Lord?


He has done it all, suffered the pain, paid the price by sacrificing Himself, what else do we want. What is keeping us away?


Help us Good Lord, may we enjoy the full benefits of Your salvation both now and in the world to come.


He calls us 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

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

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
