God Created You

“What we have seen and [ourselves] heard we are also telling you, so that you too may realize and enjoy fellowship as partners and partakers with us. And [this] fellowship that we have (which is a distinguishing mark of Christians) is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ, the Messiah.”
1 John 1:3 The Amplified Bible

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Why did God create Mankind? Some people get the idea that God made man so He’d have someone to dominate and control, some one to beat up on. But God is not a dominator. In fact if you will read Genesis 1:26 you find that God made man to be the dominator. No, God is LOVE and love needs to give to someone. That’s why God made man. He made man (mankind male and female) so He could give His love to them. He made man something really special. God made us in the very image and likeness of Himself. He made us to have fellowship with Himself, for God loves our fellowship more than anything else.
God could have given His love to the angels, and He did that too. But giving to angels didn’t provide Him with total fulfillment. Why? Because the angels aren’t made in His image and likeness, but we are! Angels were created beings to serve a purpose, we were created to be sons and daughters of the ‘Most High God’. Enjoy that fact and fellowship with the Father God, The Son Jesus, and with the Holy Spirit!

MY PRAYER…
Abba Father, I will never understand how You could love me so much that You would create me in Your image. Or why You would chose to fellowship with me over the angels of heaven. But one thing I do know, and that is You love me beyond compare. Please help me to love others as You have loved me. Help me Lord to be what You would have me to be. In Jesus name, I pray.
Amen

Angels of God
And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you.” While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling, Then he said to me, “Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words.
Daniel 10:11-12 New King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSES…

The angels of God have been sent to you also!

Daniel was in great distress and being held by the king and had been drained of all his strength and was short of breath even. But, because he had set his heart on God and humbled himself to the point of asking God for help, God sent His angel to strengthen him. Not only did God send an angel, He sent Michael, the greatest Archangel, one of the greatest of all the angels. Do you need God’s angels at work for you? All we have to do is Believe and ask, then command them – no other proof needed!

MY PRAYER…
Precious Father, thank You for giving your angels charge over me. Thank you Lord for instructing them to harken unto your spoken Word and to be ministers (servants) un to those of us who are heirs to your Kingdom through our faith and believe in ?Jesus, Your Son. Thanks Abba Daddy for giving me that which I was not worthy to receive. That which I could in no way earn You lovingly gave to me as a free gift, if only I would receive it. Father, I exercise my faith and I accept that which I was not worthy to have, but that which You have freely given. Thank You Lord for sending me Jesus to show me the way, the only way! In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen

Stand Up and Be Counted

“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.”
1 Timothy 2:1-2 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
We are commanded, not asked, to pray for our country and our leaders. Whether we approve of the leaders or not! But having prayed, God expects us to act, to take a stand. Stand Up and Be Counted! Obviously many Christians did NOT listen to God and and take a stand during the 2008, and 2012 elections here in the U.S.! If they had we wouldn’t be where we are now. And we wouldn’t have a so-called ‘Affordable Care Act’ that is causing people to lose their insurance policies or like in my case for the cost of that insurance to go up almost $200 a month – yes I said a month! We wouldn’t be on the verge of socialism or have had a muslim president who kept doing treasonous acts and getting a way with them either! Putting this country is such low world esteem. Thank God we (Christians) wised up and prayed for the 2016 election and God heard our prayers and answered them from heaven. We Had a non muslim, God loving president again for 4 years. Then we stood by and let the socialist demorats steal, yes I said “STEAL” a federal election right in front of our eyes and did nothing to stop it!! Now we have a communist socialist president who is a puppet of the DNC, and China and he is wrecking America. It will take years to fix the damage already done by this president and his liberal no-goods, and even longer while these liberals attack the Christians in America. You who attack God’s children beware, your day will come!
The homosexuals and the lesbians and ALL the other immoral ones have taken a stand and are making people listen to them. It’s time for the Christians of this country to stand up and be counted as Christians – if they really are Christian! There can’t be any such thing as gays for Jesus either, that’s NOT scriptural and there’s nothing gay about homosexuality, it is an evil spirit straight from the pit of Hell. You can’t be both gay and Christian…it’s against God’s Word, I don’t care what you say, Read Romans chapter 1. I didn’t say that, the Word of God did. God loves all people, but He hates sin – homosexuality is sin period! Remember what He did to Sodom and Gomorrah! Get involved in what is happening around us and in our leadership. Yes we are to pray, but we need to also be active, proactive and take a stand and be heard! Our country is in the midst of a spiritual battle, and it’s vitally important that the right people be our leaders. There is such a great rise in immorality and un-Godly things among the people and the devil is raising his head big-time. We are about to see another Sodom & Gomorrah right here in America unless we can turn it around soon. God will have to judge us if don’t judge ourselves and this country doesn’t change. We must see to it that the right people become our country’s leaders. How? Take a stand! Pray for your leaders, both present and future. I didn’t say you had to agree with or like them – just that you have to pray for them according to the Word of God. We have to a Godly man back in office as soon as possible.
Thank the Spirit of God for His wisdom concerning your thinking and your stand. Thank Him for giving you His wisdom about what to say and when to say it to others. Thank Him for giving you wisdom to declare the Name of Jesus and declare that this shall be a God indwelt, God-ordained, God-overseen nation ruled by Godly men and women. Stand up and be counted as part of the power of the living God.

MY PRAYER…
Father I thank You for You leadership and Your guidance. Lord, I thank You for hearing our prayers and for providing the necessary wisdom, knowledge, and strength to our country’s leaders at this time. Father, prepare our leaders for the task now ahead of them. For the rebuilding and the strengthening of this country and its people. Lord, I thank You that You are work in the hearts of men even now, causing them to want to and giving them the strength to do Your will. Father, let Your Kingdom come, Your will be done here on earth Lord, just as it is already done in Heaven. Lead and guide our country’s leaders in all they do and say. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray.
Amen

Who Do You Follow?

It is the Lord your God you must follow, and Him you must revere. Keep His commands and obey Him; serve Him and hold fast to Him.
Deuteronomy 13:4 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Do you follow the Lord Jesus Christ, or some religious denomination or worse a cult and demons masquerading as a church? So many church denominations in the world want us to follow their lead and obey their voice, to worship and have church their way, to follow their doctrines. But Paul said it best, ” Is Christ divided? ” Jesus did Not have denominations, sects or cults, but there were such things around even in Jesus’ day. The disciples/early church served Jesus and Him only! Jesus served and represents God the Father to us as Christians. Therefore it should be God’s Word, His doctrine we follow and NOT the doctrine of men, some cult, or of demons. There are cults still out there today calling themselves churches and calling themselves Christian and they haven’t a clue what Christian is or they just are deceiving people on purpose! God has proved Himself faithful and loving through the ages. In His might He is to be revered. But rather than seeing reverence as a “denominational church thing,” i.e. Baptist or Protestant, or Catholic, or whatever, we are reminded that it is a “life thing.” Christian is being “Christ-Like” in everything we say and do! We are to obey and keep His commandments, and we are to serve Him and depend upon Him in our daily lives. Reverence is not necessarily silence in the assembly, reverence is action to the leading of His Holy Spirit and to His glory in all that we do and say! Reverence is obeying His commandments and His Word, not some denominational decree or doctrine, or so-called church history as the Catholics say, unless it is totally in agreement to God’s Word. A seminary is really a cemetery if it is teaching incorrect Bible doctrine, that is it’s doctrine will bring death instead of life! Most seminaries today are just that. Cemeteries that bring about death and destruction of God’s Word. I sure wouldn’t want to be in the shoes of any of those teachers come judgment day! Reverence is having a Christ-like walk in our day to day life. Reverence is calling on Him in a time of need and not some priest or the Pope. God is our source period! Reverence is spending quality time with our Holy Father, and with Jesus, and with the Holy Spirit in the secret place. Don’t forget to invite the Holy Spirit also! Whatever the Father and His Word says, that I will do. Not the doctrines of men.

MY PRAYER…
Holy and Righteous Father, help me take my worship outside the church building through my body, the temple of the living God, and into my day to day life as I live what I sing, practice what I say, and pursue what I pray. Lord help me to be a doer of Your word and not just a hearer. Lord, help me to show the world around me reverence unto You, My Father in my daily life and all that I do and say.
In Jesus name.
Amen

The Only Example

In as much then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For indeed He does not give aid to angels, but He does give aid to the seed of Abraham.
Hebrews 2:14-16 New King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
The Only Example!
Do you follow Jesus’ example?
Jesus became flesh and blood just as man had become so that He could share in what we have to go through. He came and showed us how to overcome as a man. He defeated death, hell, and the grave as a mortal man, but filled with the Holy Spirit of God. Did you get that? A mortal man defeated the devil, death, hell, & the grave. Just as you and I should be and can do! He came and showed us how to be victorious while we were still here on the earth in these mortal bodies. Yes it will all be better in the sweet by and by, but my Bible says I can have heaven on earth now, so why wait? And notice He doesn’t give aid to the angels, but to us who are of the seed of Abraham. Born again, faith believing, Holy Spirit filled Christians, who walk the talk. Oh, but He does give His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. Do you call on your angels according to the Word? You can you know according to the Word of God and they will harken unto you to fulfill God’s Word in our lives. Thank God for His Jesus and our angels!

MY PRAYER…
All Mighty Father, Thank You for sending us Your Son as an example of how we were to overcome, for showing us how to be victorious. Thank You for showing us that it was a mortal man, just like myself, who full of Your Holy Spirit, subsequent to being born again, defeated the Devil, death, hell, and the grave. Thank You Father for sending us Your Holy Spirit through Jesus. For giving us the strength through Your Holy Spirit that is within us and upon us. In the mighty name of Jesus, Lord I pray and I give You all glory and honor.
Amen

Spiritual Growth

“Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it? It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.”
Luke 13:18-19 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Grow A Little Spiritually Every Day!

If you’re going to grow in the kingdom of God, you’re going to do it just like a seed that’s been planted in the ground. How does a seed grow? All at once? No, it grows constantly– 24 hours a day–a little at a time until it accomplishes what it was created to do. Many of us don’t operate that way spiritually. We study and pray very hard for a few days and then quit or slack way off. We want it all right now, microwave Christianity! Then, when some emergency or sickness or some other disaster comes, we make a mad desperate attempt to pray and stand on the Word, calling all our brothers and sisters to be in agreement with us! While all the while realizing that, for some reason, we’re just not as strong as we ought to be spiritually. Why not? God’s Kingdom works on the principal of “Seed time and Harvest”, you don’t get a harvest without first sowing seed. And seed takes time to grow. There’s no such thing as an overnight success in the kingdom of God! There’s no over night ‘super Christian’! Real strength, real growth comes as you consistently and constantly keep the Word before your eyes, in your ears, and in the midst of your heart. Not just when you want to or when you feel like it, but constantly, like the seed, a little at a time. Make up your mind to begin that daily process of constant growth today. Determine to start putting the Word in your heart consistently. Every day a line here, a line there–a CD here, a CD there, maybe a video here, and video there, line upon line, precept upon precept as your spirit man grows and becomes strong in the things of God! Eventually, your faith will be bigger than you ever dreamed it could be. Remember to tithe of your time to the Lord also. A tithe of 24 hours is 2.4 hours a day that you should be giving totally to God!

MY PRAYER…
Almighty God, I thank You for giving me a measure of faith that I can plant in my heart and cause to grow. Thank You Lord, for Your steadfast love and enduring faithfulness even when I falter. I thank You for Your grace and mercy. I thank You for Your might and power. I thank You for Your awesome holiness. I thank You… for being You and choosing to reveal Yourself to mortals like me. I Thank You Father for loving me so much that You sent Your Holy Son Jesus to bear my sin, my punishment, my sickness, my disease, my poverty, my depression, and my lack of fulfillment in the law, that through His sacrifice I might have life and life more abundantly. Father help me to develop a steadfastness in spending time with You and in Your Word. In Jesus’ name, your Word made flesh, I pray.
Amen

Forever

The Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Forever!

What do you have in your life now that will last forever? Nothing, unless it is spiritual. Most everything we have falls apart, breaks, grows old, rusts away, conks out, or runs down in a short time, and if that doesn’t finish it then the purifying fire of the Lord on the day of judgment will. Nothing material will leave this earth with us when we go. Nothing, not even a piece of clothing. But we have three things that will last forever: God (Triune – in all three persons), our Christian brothers and sisters, and our praise for God. These are eternal. We must protect these through our daily spiritual maintenance with God, be sure and give Him the time that’s His. Remember, the tithe belongs to the Lord, that’s a tenth! Not just a tenth of our first fruits and money, but a tenth of our daily time is also His. Only what you store up now in heaven will last forever.

MY PRAYER…
God, I look forward to the day of Your next great surprise. I join the angels in standing on tiptoe as I look into the clouds to see my Lord, Your Son, return in all glory and splendor and watch as He receives the exaltation, the honor, and the praise He deserves. I’ll stand in awe as every knee bows to the King of Kings and every tongue speaks forth nothing but praises. I praise You for that day now, even though I see it only by faith. Until I see You on that day, know that my heart’s desire is to serve You, even when my weakness gets in the way of showing it as fully as I should. But, I know that when I am weak then I am made strong through you. My thanks and praise to You in Jesus’ name.
Amen

Seated In Heavenly Places

If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
Colossians 3:1-3 New King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Seated In Heavenly Places

Do you know that you are seated in Heavenly places with Jesus?
Scripture says that if you believe in Jesus and have been baptized into His death that you are also raised up with Him and made to sit in heavenly places with Him (Eph 2:6). This is known as a positional truth because it is what God says about us. We need to see ourselves as God does in His positional truths. We should seek those things that are of heaven, those things which will last with us through all eternity. We should lay up treasures for ourselves in heaven, where they can not be destroyed or taken by thieves. We need to get our eyes off of ourselves and the things of this world, the things that distract us from heavenly things, and get them unto Jesus…the Author and the Finisher of our faith. Only He can change our circumstances.

MY PRAYER…
Eternal Father, who was before creation and who is the Great “I AM”, help me to sow seeds in my life that will bear eternal fruit. Help me to see where You have raised me to be seated. Let Your Spirit guide and teach me to sow to the spirit and to avoid those things that are carnal and lead to death and destruction. Help me to keep my eyes on Jesus, my Author and my Finisher for I know that I can not accomplish anything on my own, but I need You and Your Holy Spirit to help and to guide me every step of the way. So Father, I ask You to fill me afresh each day with Your precious Holy Spirit, that indeed I may be endued with power from on High to accomplish that which I can not myself do for Your Kingdom. In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray.
Amen

God’s Divine Nature

Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
2 Peter 1:4 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
God’s Divine Nature

Did you know, we are called to participate in the divine nature of God by God Himself?
God made us in His Image, His Character and His Holiness, because He wanted us to be as much like Him as we could be. We were made not just to look like God, but also have His nature and character. We are called to participate in the divine nature of God Himself according to His Word. He has promised that if we have died with Christ in baptism, that we have then been seated in heavenly places with Christ. That we have then been made more than conquerors. We are assured that we will escape the corruption and destruction destined for the world. His promises are sure, they are eternal, and His Word will never change. He does not lie nor change His mind, if we will hearken unto His Word and follow it wholeheartedly we shall reap His precious promises!

MY PRAYER…
Almighty God, my Everlasting Fortress, thank You for giving me Your great and precious promises. Help me Lord to understand them and to walk them out in my life. Lord, I long to know You more fully and to be able to see Your face today, just as I believe I will one day in heaven. Thank You for giving me the means to protect myself and my heart from this world’s corruption. Lord, help me through Your Holy Spirit to walk in the spirit and not in the flesh. In all love and appreciation of what You have given me, I pray, in the name of Jesus.
Amen

Trust in God!

[The Lord says,] “Even to your old age and gray hairs, I am He, I am He who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
Isaiah 46:4 NIV

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
The Great I AM!

Trust in God to sustain you in life!
How many times has God carried you, or rescued you, or just kept you from harm? I guarantee you don’t really know how many times!
Do you want an awesome promise from God? Hear the Words of the “Great God Jehovah” to the remnant of the house of Israel. To the children of Abraham who by Faith have become children of the Most High God with the same rights and privileges as the house of Israel. (That’s us Christians folks! We who have made Jesus our Lord!) He is telling them; “put your trust in Me, believe in Me, have faith in Me, for it is I who will keep you and carry you, it is I who will rescue you, and it is I who will sustain you, not those graven idols you have been worshiping.” Then in verses 9 & 10 (of Isaiah 46) He tells them this; “Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:” He is telling the remnant of the house of Israel to return to Him and He will show them His salvation (the Hebrew word translated here as salvation means: liberty, deliverance, prosperity, saving and salvation: it means all of these). By the time it got down to the “New Testament”, the Great Jehovah had extended that offer to all the rest of the people on Earth (the unbelieving heathen and gentiles of the world, if they would believe in Him and His Son Jesus) as well as just Israel. Now, Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8), He is telling us this same thing today, trust in me and I will deliver you and keep you! Is your source the Lord? Or do you trust in the world, worse yet do you trust in SELF instead of God?

MY PRAYER…
Almighty God, I give You all praise and glory forever. Lord I thank You that You carry me when I am in times of trouble, that You are always there to rescue me, and that it is You who sustain me when I can no longer continue. Lord, now I understand why at times I see two sets of footprints behind me and yet at other times I see only one set. I used to think that You had left my side, but now I know that when there was only one set, that was when You were carrying me in Your arms and in Your grace. I thank You Lord that You have never and never will leave me nor forsake me. I put all my trust in You Lord and in Jesus name, I pray.
Amen
