HAVE A COME TO JESUS MEETING.

As i write,i must say all my born again brothers and sisters i salute you. I pray for you,i remember you always,and wish i could take away any harm that could come to you in anyway.I believe Christ will protect you. Lets pray without ceasing.Lets remember the Apostle Paul's words in Romans chapter 1:verses 8 and 9.Many in my local church have been sick...having surgery and in and out of the Hospital.I pray for each of them.I love to worship with them.For God is my witness."First i thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all" As i go to rest,still recovering from open heart surgery,i Praise my Lord for leaving me here to continue to do what he has chosen me to do. I will be done only when He sees fit to be finished with me.For those that do not believe.....verse 20 of Romans chapter 1.......they are without excuse. Come to Jesus......COME TO JESUS! Good night and God be with you.My prayer: Dear Lord,draw all mankind to you ,thru your Holy Spirit,IN JESUS NAME,AMEN.

ALIGN OUR THINKING.

False teachers were already popping their heads up in the early church. The apostles had to revisit many established churches to reset the the true gospel.They had to explain again and again the difference between the law and grace.Through Jesus Christ we all.....by having Faith in Him,that He is who he says He is,and will accomplish in us what He says He will,when we believe Him and follow Him,we all become part of the Kingdom of God,and sons.In the book of Galatians chapter 3 and chapter 4,thru apostle Paul we learn we must align our thinking with that of Gods promises to us.He speaks of how everything Abraham was promised ,we are part of. In chapter 3 we see the benefits of our beliefs,our Sonship,our unity with Christ,and our Inheritance.(chapter 3:verses 26,27,28,29.)We also see that when we become born again,there is neither Jew,Greek,bond nor free,male or female;for we are all one in Christ Jesus.What was that promise?
#1.The land promise" A land that i will show you"
#2 The national promise "A great nation"
#3.The Spiritual Promise "I will bless thee,and thou shall be a blessing.All of this in Genesis chapter 12.verses 1 thru 3.
Wow!
Look in chapter 4: starting with verse one.Paul explains what it was like under the law of Moses,then goes into the wonderful explanation,we all must Praise our God for eternally! When the fullness of time had come,(meaning at Gods on time,or a time that serves His own purpose)Reference Ephesians chapter 1:verse 10)
God sent forth His Son born of a women,made under the law,to redeem us,that we might receive the adoption of sons.And because of this we are now sons,and God has sent forth the spirit of His son into our hearts.And we cry Abba Father.Abba Father meaning a title of reverence for bishops and patriarchs,also used by Jesus and Paul to address God in a relation of personal intimacy.It was an Aramic word for father.Another reason to regardless of our Physical condition,or financial position,or what the lost unbelieving world says......we are to Praise Him,our Father who art in Heaven,Holy is your name.In verse 7 of the 4th chapter of Galations.....Paul ....as inspired by the Holy Spirit announces that because of all this,we are no more servants,but sons.then an heir of God through Christ. Another big...big.....wow! And a big Amen.
Another point i overlooked,was the word baptized used in this text by the Apostle Paul.It does not mean the water baptism.It refers to ,or means the spiritual baptism,which is what occurs when we place all our faith in,and on Christ.The old man is dead,and the new man is born.
I just went through a life threatening issue. God chose to leave me here on this side,for a reason.I know for sure that He (my Heavenly Father has heard all the prayers offered up for me,but.....i know He has heard my request to Him. My request was not for my physical life,but for Him to use me in a mighty way for His kingdom.Some He uses to plant,some to water,but God himself giveth the increase.
Therefore the Lord has shown me,that i am not to compete with any other brother or sister,or debate who has the greatest ministry in the Kingdom of God,but i am to pray(communicate)With the Lord,then He communes with me through my Bible,and i refer you back to the 6th verse of chapter 4 in Galatians.And sometimes i wait,and wait,and wait,then His will for me is revealed to my heart.
Sometimes He leads me thru the valley of the shadow of death,but i feared no evil.After many years of running from my calling,i can say,all is well with my soul.Do you honestly understand what Gods Word here is saying to you?(Galatians)ch.3 and 4. DO you know your heart can lie to you? Read and remember 1st John chapter 3:verse 20. "when our hearts condemn us,He....the Lord ,is GREATER than our hearts.Let these words purge your hearts. If your not saved,then repent,and turn your entire life over to Jesus.
He will sanctify you,regenerate you.BY grace thru Faith,you will become a son in the family of God.For many who are born again,false teachers,teaching false doctrines may have creeped in over the years.Lean not unto your own understanding.Do not be as the Galatians had become. Read Galatians chapter 3 verse one. Do not disobey the truth.Do not flee the truth of Gods Word,and do not add to it or take away from it.There is a warning in Revelation about that.My Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father,....who searches the heart of mankind. to see if there are any that do hunger and thirst after your righteousness. Please count me in,and draw any that are not sure to you.In Jesus name i pray,AMEN!

Johnson amendment.

Pray for President Trump. The Johnson amendment must go. America must defeat any moslem that  persecutes Christians,any where in the world. I believe over 90,000 persecuted last year.Pray.

Where is your trust?

Lay down our lives for our brethren,our hearts condemn us,we have confidence towards God,there is no fear,We love him because! Five verses you must place in your heart.1st John chapter 3: verses16,20,21. THEN 1st John chapter 4:verses 18,and 19.Read them and know you can put your trust in Christ.You can also add verse 22 of chapter 3,1st John.Please forgive the short blogs,i am recovering from a 4 by-pass surgery.I have missed blogging,and going to church to serve.Went yesterday for two services,it has worn me down a bit.Love you guys.

I ORDERED MY CONVERSATION ARIGHT.

The mighty God ,even the Lord,hath spoken,and called the earth from the rising of the sun unto the going down thereof.Psalm( 50).
VERSE 1.
In verse 10 and 11...we see that the Lord declares that every beast of the forest is His and a cattle on a thousand hills.He declares that He knows that the fowl of the air,and the wild beast of the field are His.Oh ,+
He then says in verse 15....call upon me in the day of trouble and i will deliver thee,and thou shalt glorify me .But unto the wicked the Lord says a great deal to them.Now consider this ,ye that forget God,lest i tear you in pieces,and there be none to deliver.But then He tells us How important praise to him is, in verse 23.Whoso offers praise glorifieth me:and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will i show the salvation of God.
My goodness i know that after many years of having Faith in the Lord,i then realized i had to order my conversation aright.I ordered my conduct to change,then praised God,then pondered on obedience, on a moment to moment basis.Can this be done? Oh yes you bet!!!
Please read the 50th Psalm.Do not be atheist. Read the 1st verse of the 53 Psalm."The fool has said in his heart there is no God."God wants you to seek him.verses 2 and 3 of Psalm 53.Do not wait until you are in distress.Seek the Lord while He may be found.My prayer:heavenly Father i regret i have but one life to give to you.Amen.

I COME PEACEABLY...TO SELECT A NEW KING.

Now in the 15th chapter of the 1st book of Samuel.
And the Lord said how long will thou mourn for Saul,seeing i have rejected Him from reigning over Israel? It pops out at me that Samuel,took his duties serious,and must have loved Saul very much.In this chapter,the Lord told Samuel to go get Jessie and bring him to a sacrifice to the Lord. Jessie being from Bethlehem.Samuel believed that SAUL would kill him if he knew. Yet Samuel did as the lord commanded,and the elders in the town were afraid. Samuel made it clear that he came in peace. Samuel called Jesse and all his sons to the sacrifice.All Jessie's sons paraded in front of Samuel and the Lord accepted none.One of the sons was a big man and the Lord told Samuel this was not the new king,and not to look upon the mans stature because the Lord does not judge by the outward appearance,but upon the heart.So enter .....David the shepherd! What does this have to do with the lesson? David was a musician and a warrior.The spirit of the Lord was upon David,after being anointed by Samuel.Yet an evil Spirit came upon Saul...but David played his music,Saul was refreshed and the evil Spirit departed Saul.Much more to be studied about this,but for the time constraint i must stop here.MY PRAYER: Heaven Father help us see that worshiping you is the most important thing we can do in our lives.Its number one.We must remember the scripture in Psalm 33...concerning how to worship. By continually praising you.Amen.

PEACEABLY I COME. I CRIED ALL NIGHT.

As i study and prepare to be taught my Sunday School lesson,and then share it with the awesome class that sits before me,The Lords hand (HOLY SPIRIT) leads me immediately to the book of 1st Samuel. In chapter 15 i learn how the Lord picks a man to be King over Israel. The Lord sends the prophet Samuel to anoint SAUL king and He is told to hearken unto the voice of the words of the Lord.The Lord sends Saul to a city of Amelak to destroy everyone,and all that they have.Saul did not do as he was instructed. Only partly.
He saved the King,he spared some friendly people(the KENITES)sent them away before he did battle.Saul's army numbered 210,000 thousand men.Saul spared the best of the sheep,and oxen,and lambs....all that was good.This caused the Lord to actually to say,it repenteth me that i have set up Saul to be King.Samuel went to Saul,and Saul told him that he had done as the Lord had commanded.Samuel told Saul to wait,and he(Samuel) would listen for what the Lord had to say.Samuel returned and said "When thou wast little in thine own sight,wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel,and the Lord anointed thee King of Israel? Saul still insisted that he had obeyed the Lord,and as scripture tells us,Saul admitted he had sinned by fearing the people,and obeyed their voice.Then Saul worshiped the Lord,and yet the Lord did not change His mind about replacing Saul as King.Samuel actually hewed(cut) the enemy King in pieces.Then Samuel left and never came back to see Saul.Samuel had finished the job that Saul was ordered to do.'Peaceably i come' begins here.
2 things i must say.What a friend Samuel was! He cried all night upon learning that God had repented for setting up Saul to be king.

And now just before going to find the new King,the Lord said,"How long Samuel are you going to mourn for Saul? seeing that i have rejected him from reigning over Israel?
In my next blog i will continue to write the rest of the story,and how it fits into the Sunday School lesson.{All this writing was taken from the 1st book of Samuel chapter 15.A must read,as The Almighty...worthy to be praised Holy God,speaks to my heart.My prayer:Father who art in Heaven,hallowed be thy name.AMEN.
