Fix Our Eyes

But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:7-9

God uses us to display his eternal power, he will take the weak and make them strong, he will take the sick and make the immortal, he will part the waters or he will walk on water, its all by the Power of God

We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body. So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you. 2 Corinthians 4:10-12

Jesus conquered death and thru him we will conquer death also. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead is living in you, does the world see Jesus in you?

It is written: “I believed; therefore I have spoken.” Since we have that same spirit of faith, we also believe and therefore speak, because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus from the dead will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you to himself.  2 Corinthians 4:13-14

It’s time for Christians to stop mourning and start rejoicing, no matter what man does to us we can’t be defeated, because we have been covered by the Blood of The Lamb

All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is reaching more and more people may cause thanksgiving to overflow to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 2 Corinthians 4:15:16

While the world wastes and spends there time trying to make themselves look better, we are becoming stronger everyday spiritually. The world will pass away but the Kingdom of God will stand forever.

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

Are you fixing your eyes on this world or on eternity? Don’t waste your time on what is temporary but invest your time on what is permanent. The Kingdom of Heaven will stand forever, it was here before us and it will be here after us, its your choice what are you going to fix your eyes on in Jesus Name Amen

God Is Love

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love 1 John 4:7-8

Hatred, violence, and racism don’t come from God. If anyone is filled with these things, they are not filled with the Spirit of God but are filled with the Spirit of Satan.

This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:9-10

God loves you enough to sacrifice his only begotten Son, to allow him to take the punishment for your sins. There is no greater love than to lay down your life for others, God displayed ultimate love

Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit 1 John 4:11-13

The same Spirit that raised Christ from the Dead is living in you, that is the Spirit of God. You are called to be The Light of the World and The Salt of The Earth, Do people see God living in you?

  And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 1 John 4:14-16

Anyone who acknowledges Jesus before others he will acknowledge them before God. Confess today that Jesus is your Lord and Savior and become transformed with the Spirit of God

This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 1 John 4:17

Nobody can get to the Father without going thru the Son, alone we are not worthy to stand before God but with the blood of Jesus we are worthy and redeemed

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18

Fear doesn’t come from God but come from Satan to control and manipulate you. Break the chains today, if God be for us who can be against us, Fear no Evil

We love because he first loved us. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister. 1 John 4:19-21

Jesus commanded us to Love One Another as we Love ourselves. Unless your doing this your not truly doing the Will of God.  Remember We love because he first love us, God made us in his image, he sacrificed his Son for our sins, there is no greater love than God in Jesus Name Amen

Test The Spirits

9 Replies

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1

There are many false prophets and false religions in this world, I know I talk about it a lot but its important you know truth from fiction. It’s easy to be led astray that’s why it’s important you know the Word of God so you can discern the truth.

This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world 1 John 4:2-3

What separates Christians from all other religions, of course Jesus Christ. The word Christ actually means “Messiah” or “Anointed One”, its his title not his name. All other religions are worshiping dead prophets but Jesus lives and reigns forever as the King of King and Lord of Lords.

You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world. 1 John 4:4

The same spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is the same spirit living inside you. The Power of God has anointed and equipped you to overcome this world.  Fear doesn’t come from God it comes from Satan

They are from the world and therefore speak from the viewpoint of the world, and the world listens to them. 1 John 4:5

You can tell false prophets from the fruit they are bearing, are they reaping worldly riches and possessions or are they doing the will of God and serving his people? A true minister should model there life after Jesus, he gave everything including his own life, to save everyone who is willing to accept it.

We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood. 1 John 4:6

The world hates Jesus because he is the truth. You want to truly follow Jesus then be prepared to be crucified on your cross just like he was. But know the world and all its possessions are temporary and will fade away but Gods Kingdom will stand forever.  Jesus will reign King forever, don’t gain the whole world to lose your soul in Jesus Name Amen

Crown of Life

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12

There is a war going on right now for your soul, Jesus wants to save it and Satan wants to destroy it. The question is will you persevere under trial? Is your faith strong enough to stand against the schemes of Satan? Or will you continue to fall for his traps of seduction?  Your prize is the crown of life.

When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. James 1:13-14

When we fall for sin who do we blame? Do we blame God for our sins? It’s time to take accountability for yourself. Stop blaming God for your failures and downfalls. You have the power thru Jesus Christ to overcome the world, it’s time to stand up and use it

Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. Don’t be deceived, my dear brothers and sisters. James 15-16

Our imaginations become breeding grounds for sin, if we let our imaginations get the best of us, sin will get the best of us. This is why we need to renew our minds, and set our minds on things from above and not the things of this world. What you think is what you are. What thoughts is your mind full of today?

Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created. James 1:17-18

There is only one living God, the creator of the heavens and Earth, and your creator. Everything that you have been blessed with in this world, he blessed you with. He has giving us life and he has giving us grace thru Jesus Christ.

Be strong in the Lord, stand the test of sin today and you will inherit the Crown of Life in Jesus Name Amen

 

Deny Yourself

9 Replies

Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. Matthew 16:24

Most of us think of Christianity as Jesus death and resurrection, but there another part which is our part. In order to truly be a Christian we must deny ourselves and become true disciples of Christ. Jesus is a relationship with God, just like any relationship it’s a two-way street. Jesus did his part for us now it’s up to us to do our part for him.

For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. Matthew 16:25

Like Jesus said if you truly want to be reborn you have to let your old self die. That means giving up your worldly lusts for your own pleasure, if you don’t you will just keep falling back into the same traps Satan has planned for you. Become transformed by the renewing of your mind

What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? Matthew 16:26

You need to make a choice, is there any sin worth dying for? Is the temporary pleasure you feel today worth death for eternity? Sin leads to death, make no mistake about it so you need to choose.Jesus is not a permanent “Get out of Jail Free” card, God is willing to forgive thru Jesus sacrifice only if you are being honest.

For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done. Matthew 16:27

God doesn’t have a welfare system, everyone is rewarded by the works they have performed for him. What are you doing today for Gods Kingdom? Are you being the Light of the World and The Salt of The Earth? Are you making disciples of all the nations?

“Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.” Matthew 16:28

Thru Jesus we will have eternal life just as he promised, but we must deny ourselves first , carry your cross, and follow him. Are you willing to do this today, your reward is great in Heaven in Jesus Name Amen
