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!

In Christ's Love and Grace

Are you chilvaric?!?!?

Good morning all!! What a wonderful day to be alive in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!!! God is good, all the time; all the time, God is good! Today my main prayer is for God to help me be humble, doing His work, giving Him the credit. Are you humble and doing God's will? Sometimes it is tough.
In Galatians 5:24 "THOSE WHO BELONG TO CHRIST JESUS HAVE NAILED THE PASSIONS AND DESIRES OF THEIR SINFUL NATURE TO HIS CROSS AND CRUICIFIED THEM THERE."
In order to accept CHRIST as Saviour, we need to turn from our sins and willingly nail our sinful nature to the cross. As Christians we still have the capacity to sin, but we have been set free from sin's power over us and no longer have to give in to it. We must commit our sinful tendencies to God's control daily, crucify them daily, and moment by moment draw on the Spirit's power to overcome them.
We need to practice Chivalry!!! You say what??? What you talkin' 'bout Willis??? Well, look at the following list.
Chivalric codesThere were several lists written down during the Middle Ages. One example code can be found in the book Chivalry by 19th century French historian Leon Gautier:
 Thou shalt believe all that the Church teaches, and shalt observe all its directions.
 Thou shalt defend the Church.
 Thou shalt respect all weaknesses, and shalt constitute thyself the defender of them.
Thou shalt love the country in which thou wast born.
 Thou shalt not recoil before thine enemy.
 Thou shalt make war against the Infidel without cessation, and without mercy.
 Thou shalt perform scrupulously thy feudal duties, if they be not contrary to the laws of God.
 Thou shalt never lie, and shall remain faithful to thy pledged word.
 Thou shalt be generous, and give largess to everyone.
 Thou shalt be everywhere and always the champion of the Right and the Good against Injustice and Evil
Are you chivalric? The very first one says what?!? BELIEVE ALL THAT THE CHURCH TEACHES, AND SHALT OBSERVE ALL ITS DIRECTIONS. But continue on from here- look at each one. Think about how these relate to your Christian life...and Are you being chilvaric??? I just pray that God helps me be chilvaric, to be a student of the word, and to let Jesus Christ shine through my actions and words. Thank you God for being a loving and kind God. Thank you all for reading. Love you all.

Do you bear the scars of JESUS CHRIST?!?!?!?

Good morning everyone!! What a great day to be alive in the Lord Jesus Christ!!!! God is good all the time, all the time, God is good. Today let's finish up Galatians.
Galatians6:17-18 "FROM NOW ON, DON'T LET ANYONE TROUBLE ME WITH THESE THINGS. FOR I BEAR ON MY BODY THE SCARS THAT SHOW I BELONG TO JESUS. DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS, MAY THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH YOUR SPIRIT. AMEN."
Back in the days we are glad we do not live or experience, many times the masters would mark the slaves in such a way that people would know who they belonged to. Paul carries the scars from being imprisioned, beaten, and abused because he carried the news of Jesus. Paul does not want to be bother by things that the Galatians brought forth, like having to be circumcised to be a believer. Jesus died for us unconditionally....no circumcision, no piercings, only FAITH....this brings to mind one of my favorite praise songs - Open the eyes of my heart Lord, Open the eyes of my heart, so I may see you!!!!
What scars do you have? Where is your heart? vs 18 Paul's letter bodly declares the freedom of the Christian. We are not bound by the law, we are saved by Faith, to have everlasting life. As we want to grow we have to be careful about not being misled, watch out for man made laws in a church. Do they follow the Bible? This is the question we must ask. We are set free by JESUS CHRIST!!!
If we follow laws and revert back, it would be like a prisoner being released from jail, and he walks out for a minute, then turns around and walks back into his cell. We are set free by JESUS CHRIST!!! Since Jesus set us free, we must not go back into our bondage.....bondage of the world is a great bondage. We are free, thank God, we are free through JESUS CHRIST!!
Thank you for reading. Love you all.
