Does your testimony reveal Christ??

Good morning everyone!! Yes, Yes, what a wonderful day to be alive in Jesus!! Let others see Jesus in you today!! If you have a Christian sticker on the back of your vehicle, then drive and act like a Christian. What is your testimony worth?? Have you testified??

Revelations 12:11 "And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony. And they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die."

The critical blow to Satan came when the LAMB, JESUS CHRIST, shed his blood for our sins. The victory is won by sacrifice-Christ's death in our place to pay the penalty for our sin, and the sacrifices we make because of our faith in Him. As we face the battle with Satan, we should not fear it or try to escape from it, but we should loyally serve Christ, who alone brings victory.

Romans 8:34-39 "Who then will condemn us? No one-for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and he is sitting in the place of honor at God's right hand, pleading for us. Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble, or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? As the Scriptures say, 'For your sake we are killed every day, we are being slaughtered like sheep.' No, despite all these things overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow-not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below-indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Thank your for reading with me today. Let your testimony ring!! God is good, all the time, all the time God is good. Save a life!!!! Tell someone about Jesus today. Have a wonderful, Christ filled day. Love you all!

Are you committed?? To Christ???

Good morning all!! Yes, yes, yes, a wonderful, cool, fall morning!!! God is good all the time, all the time God is good!!
You know, God is committed......committed to you, me, our neighbor, friends, family, and on and on. If HE was not....what is the purpose for living? If God was not, the purpose for living would be the big "I". Without God you may as well live for yourself.....why? Because if there is not God then it is very simple....we live-we die-end of story.

Aren't you glad God is committed to us?? Being committed is God's job to us and our job to God!! Don't be half-hearted about your commitment. Just think if God was half-hearted. Okay, He'll help this morning....BUT....doesn't want to do anything in the afternoon. Wow!! What kind of god would that be??

The Bible says to be either hot or cold....but if we are lukewarm we will be spewed from His mouth. Half-hearted is lukewarm. Don't be half-hearted...go forth with great vigor!! There is NOTHING....repeat.... NOTHING greater than our GOD!! NOTHING more important!! If we don't commit to God what are we committing to?? Lucifer, the Devil, Satan...that's who!!

1 Corinthians 9:24 "In a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize. You also must run is such a way that you will win."

Why run if only one gets the prize? You missed the point, you believe and you run in such a way as you expect to win. Don't give up.

1 Corinthians 9:25"Every athlete in training submits to strict discipline, in order to be crowned with a wreath that will not last; but we do it for one that will last forever."
co
What does this tell you? We are running for a crown that will not rust, rot, ruin in any way. How great is that!!!! We do not have to win God, just step out in faith, and may we all be passionately committed so that my life will honor you.

In Christ's Love and Grace

ETERNITY!!

Good morning everyone!! I trust you had a great and wonderful Memorial Weekend!! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.
ETERNITY!!! Just what does that mean to you? Oh, well, I am not afraid of dying because I will live forever! I expect eternal life when I die! There are many torts we can cast forth on the waters of life. BUT, what does it really mean?
Isaiah 43:13 "From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can oppose what I do." So, how long has God been God? ETERNITY!
Eternity is forever.....Psalm 90:12 "Teach us to make the most of our time.....and make our efforts successful. Yes, make our efforts successful!"
Many things in our life can be restored, however, God gives us 1440 precious minutes per day to use. When day is done, this 1440 precious minutes are gone forever......How did you use them? Did you tell someone about Jesus? Did you pray for someone? Did you at least pray for guidance?
Psalm 37:18 "Day by day the Lord observes the good deeds done by godly men, and given them eternal rewards." God desires us to be successful, not as society views success, but as God views it. One day we will all stand before the judge of the universe, Jesus Christ, and if we've made our life count through godly wisdom, we will be rewarded eternally.
Heavenly Father, we just ask now that you give us the wisdom to go about our Father's business, never passing up the opportunity to speak the name of Jesus Christ to others, and to do works which will bring glory to your kingdom. Thank you all for reading. Think about ETERNITY!!! What does it mean to you. Love you all.

Perseverance......Do you have it?

Good Morning everyone!!! Yes, another wonderful day in the Lord Jesus Christ!! Who's your savior???? The man who stilled the waters still is with us!! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.
Hebrews 10:23 "LET US HOLD FAST THE CONFESSION OF OUR HOPE WITHOUT WAVERING FOR HE WHO PROMISED IS FAITHFUL."
We are running a marathon....NOT A SPRINT!! As does the athlete, we must train and be in shape for the run. We need to finish the race, it is a long and hard race, but in the end our life will be pleasing to God.
We must train spiritually for the race at hand. Perseverance will make us focus on the prize at the end rather than the obstacles that stand in our way. When we focus on the reward and all the wonderful things God has promised us when this life is over, then we can and will be optimistic about the future.
I Corinthians 15:58 "My beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."
Remember that God's schedule for our spiritual growth is often different than our own. Thank you for reading. Love you all. STAY STRONG, STAY THE COURSE, FOCUS ON THE REWARD......EVERLASTING LIFE WITH JESUS!!!
In Christ's Love and Grace
