Escape The World Now…

29 Sep

Luke 21:36, “Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

Are you discerning the times? This is a constant need for all believers in Jesus Christ. While we are in the daily grind of working to provide a living for our families, be watchful. This world is on a steady economic, moral and spiritual decline. Each day more and more news of wars, civil unrest and crime is being reported with the worst still yet to come. Christ asks all of His followers to be mindful of the times and coming tribulations and find refuge at the cross.

No political official will bring peace but only one who is peace in our Lord Jesus Christ! Isaiah 9:6, “For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Only through our faith in Him and sacrifice as the Son of YAH (John 3:16) can we escape this world and the clutches of sin and death.

Are you ready to escape this world? Then pray this out loud,”Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name, Amen Shalom…

Never Perfect, Always Progressing…

26 Sep

Philippians 3:13-14, “Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

One goal that I sometimes lose sight of is my daily progression in the spirit. Asking myself, “How can I be better for the Lord today than what I was yesterday,” and not remain stagnant as I know YAH has something new for me today. Whether this progression comes from daily reading, prayer or meditation on the Most High, the Lord has a new prize for us today.

While we are made whole the day we accept Jesus (Colossians 2:10), we need to align our flesh to His will and present our physical bodies to Him in this natural world. The Apostle Paul alludes to the old Him as the main protagonist in His spiritual battle. As the need to put away our old ways of thinking and acting in order to reflect the totality of Jesus Christ.

Never perfect but always progressing towards the high calling of YAH, is a dire need for all Disciples of Christ. Striving each day to reach the perfection that is only in Christ, Shalom…

Satan’s Economy

19 Sep

Revelations 13:16-17, “And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.”

The waning world economy, food shortages and under paying jobs can be seen as a sign of the end times. This world’s economic system is run and maintained by the world’s elite driven by profit and greed. Manipulating or giving the perception of troublesome times. This is the same deception the Antichrist will do in order for millions of people to receive his mark in order to live (See “The Mysterious Mark of The Beast Revealed, under the “End Times Prophecy tab).

A bad economic system is not from YAH. Giving us everything that we need in Him, 2 Corinthians 9 verse 8 reads, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things,may have an abundance for every good work.” These hectic fluctuations in economic prosperity are a direct sign as to how Satan can control the population into receiving His false Christ.

I pray the Holy Spirit will guide us into prosperity so that we have the means to resist. Investing in inflation hedges (items that maintain value in hard economic times). Remember no matter the World’s system, Yah will always supply our needs (Philippians 4:19) Shalom

Why The World Needs Jesus…

16 Sep

John 3:17, “For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”

While Christian believers know why they are in need of a savior for the remission of sin (Acts 2:38) and to escape death (Psalms 68 verse 20). The natural world we live in still thrives in a fallen state. A state of war, corruption, murder and crime. Jesus Christ is the cure for all its ailments. Even when there is peace in our lives somewhere, sin is operating in abundance. The current world system still operates under satanic persuasion bringing about sin and death.

While we cannot change the world overnight. Whenever and wherever we must be ready to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the unsaved, letting the Holy Spirit work to change everyone from the perishable to the to the imperishable. 1 Corinthians 9:25, “And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.”

Saving nonbelievers from the corruption of the world, is a daunting task. However, we are backed by love and the precious blood of Jesus to do exactly just that, Shalom.

Scripture Study- Romans 5:8-9

11 Sep

Scripture Study- Romans 5:8-9, “ But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.”

Romans 5:8-9 is a proclamation of the enduring love YAH has for His children. While we were dead in our sin, He sent Jesus to die for us. In essence, the Most High loved us even when we did’nt love ourselves. YAH looked past our sinful acts and saw the goodness in everyone, granting us grace and mercy.

In verse 9, the scripture tell us that even more love and blessings will come forth once we are redeemed by Jesus Christ. It’s a testimony to never give up on anyone, and trust that the blood of Christ can justify everyone, Shalom.

The Rebellious Spirit…

5 Sep

Isaiah 30:1, “Woe to the rebellious children,” says the Lord, “Who take counsel, but not of Me,And who devise plans, but not of My Spirit, That they may add sin to sin.”

The current assessment of today’s society, is that everyone is seeking a form of godliness without Jesus Christ. While the Gospel message has been heard, many still look for a alternative salvation. This is due to the Gospel message not linning up with their current lifestyle or the current social climate. This turning away, leads to them rebelling away from YAH’s son Jesus Christ.

These alternate methods for salvation can be new world religions, spirituality or secular morality. While these alternatives can satisfy for the moment they ultimately will fail in the end. John 14:6 states, “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” This is due to His bloodshed and perfect sacrifice for our sins. 

No other religion, new world belief can make this claim other than Christianity! While the scriptures do not align with the worlds system, the Cross is the only way to overcome its hardships. John 16:33, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Though the Gospel message wars against our flesh. Trust the Holy Spirit to guide us into understanding for the salvation of our souls, and do not rebel against the love of Christ, Shalom…

We Never Would Have Made It Without Him…

3 Sep

Psalm 94:17, “Unless the Lord had been my help, My soul would soon have settled in silence.”

I am forever grateful for the Lord Jesus Christ, who sustains me in all my troubles. It’s truly comforting knowing that He will never leave or forsake me (Hebrews 13:5) seeing me through this life and on unto YAH’s glory! While trials will always effect believers know that His blood sustains us.

John 16:33 reads, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” This means that every storm only has so much rain, the darkness of night will eventually flee in the light.

This natural world has been overcome by the bloodshed of Christ, and eternity belongs to His glory! Will you endure, yes! Because Jesus made the way (John 3:16) Shalom…
