Isaiah 60 King James Version (KJV)
60 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Early on in the lives of those that the Lord has so chosen, he refines, he sharpens, he prepares them for the monumental tasks ahead. If you find yourself in this category rejoice! Now stay in position for your on the launching pad. You shall be sooo elated as to where your are going from here.
John 3:21 King James Version (KJV)
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God
Sometimes, due to our transgressions, or the transgressions of those around us, we are thrust into very dangerous situations. But if in the scriptures, that in the camp of the Israelites, when they were bitten by serpents, God had Moses to erect an serpent on a pole and as many as looked were healed Numbers 21:9 If we look to Jesus who was lifted up on that cross we can be made whole and be saved from eternally separation from God. John 3:14,15
Isaiah 63:9 In all their distress he too was distressed, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and mercy he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.
Dear brothers and sisters, and those prospectively considering becoming a part of the family of God Through our Lord and Savior Jesus the Christ.
You have to become a student of both the Old Testament and the New Testament. In doing this you will get a picture of God’s protecting power today. Jesus operated in the protection under the Old Testament. You can see him in several instances like Elijah, being moved around and shielded from death before his time. You have to understand that he walked in the earth as a man, fulfilling the Law. He walked on it blameless, thus could stop death, walk on the sea, protect his disciples, giving them his same ability. Then once again, not be touched by a man until his time was fulfilled. He said ,”no man takes my life, I lay it down, I have the authority to lay it down, and the authority to take it up again.” John 10:18
Remember the words of the Apostle Paul , “to live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor, yet what I choose, I do not know. I am torn between two. I desire to depart a be with Christ which is far better. But it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body.” Philippians 1:22-24 Who made the decision to remain in the earth? Paul did, no one pushed him out of his work, until he was tired and ready to leave. Acts 21:13
Jesus did these things so that you and I could come under the covenants of promise. So go back a see how God utterly shielded them of the old, and realize that we have a better covenant established on better promises. Hebrews 8:6
It is vitally important to develop a sensitive ear when your speaking with those who have seemed to slip away from the light. The Spirit of the Lord grant you wisdom in speech, that your words minister grace and have the ability to draw them back towards the light.
Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time Col.4:5
I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, so shall I be saved from my enemies. Psalms 18:3
You see we have been given the Sure mercies of David. Acts 13:34. We fell heir to all that Jesus accomplished. So don’t let the evil one trick you. Those angels that Jesus didn’t call on to deliver him because of his purpose to save us from sin, Matthew 26:53, are available to rescue you when you have been threatened. I have seen some of them on several occasions.
Yet God himself takes up for the Lovers of his soul.
Psalms 18:6-14
6 In my distress I called upon the Lord, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, even into his ears.
7 Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.
9 He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness was under his feet.
10 And he rode upon a cherub, and did fly: yea, he did fly upon the wings of the wind.
11 He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.
12 At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire.
13 The Lord also thundered in the heavens, and the Highest gave his voice; hail stones and coals of fire.
14 Yea, he sent out his arrows, and scattered them; and he shot out lightnings, and discomfited them.
Please think twice before you approach God’s anointed in the wrong way. Make adjustments now.
9And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
In The Twinkling Of An Eye,
( Just like that,) he will be back! And we will be changed. 1 Corinthians 15: 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
Out of a heart of pure Love, God has drawn you unto himself. He sat by and watched at every hour. Waiting with an insatiable anticipation for you to except his invitation. ( those who haven’t come to him as of yet, Come to Jesus right now.) Today, as we look into the faces of the masses, the Lord has put within each of us who have been recipients of his Love, that same eager yearning to watch for them hour, by hour. Till the day star dawns in their hearts.
Jeremiah 31:3
The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.
For many years I didn’t understand why it was important of give the tithe to God. The tithe is ten percent of what you have earned. God has made many promises to those who take care of his house and take care of those who minister of his Holy things.
God is able to protect all that you have worked so hard for. And if you have suffered lost, when you begin to give a tenth to his work, he will restore.
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the Lord of hosts.
Malachi 3:10-12
Commitment to live for God in every way, causes his blessings to fall like rain.
As being born again children of the most high God, we fell heir to the mercies of God! If You who haven’t joined us, come on Jesus is calling you. Make Jesus the Lord of your life today!
No fear no fear, what is to come, for my life is safely in the Sanctuary of the Son.❤️❤️
The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; Lam. 3:22
