If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that? James 2:15-16

Can you be a Christian without helping anyone? Often we spend a lot of time pursing our own salvation, that we don’t take the time to care for the simple needs of others. If we’re going to preach the gospel we also got to be walking the gospel. Meaning live as Jesus commanded us to live and not be so self-focused and centered.

“Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? ‘And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? ‘When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ “The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’ Matthew 25: 38-40

Jesus taught about this, whatever you did for the “lest of these” you did for him. Meaning if you met Christ today , what would your reaction be? You would probably willingly serve him whatever he wanted, this is how Jesus wants you to view other people also. Show compassion towards other people. Jesus himself washed the feet of his own disciples, helping others in need is not above you, no matter who you are.

It’s better to give than receive (Acts 20:35) This is a concept that is hard for our carnally driven minds to understand, but giving is more rewarding than receiving. When we talk about “giving” we automatically think about money. But even if we have no money, we can give other things to help others. We can give someone a ride, or give someone your time , talk to someone who is lonely or in crisis.

This is what Jesus was talking about when he said “We are the Light of the world and Salt of The Earth”. There is an estimated 2.2 billion Christians on The Earth, if everyone makes it a point to help one person everyday, we are helping billions of people a day. Think about that in Jesus Name Amen

I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your Law is within my heart.” Psalm 40:8

Can we delight in doing “The Law” of God? Often when people think of “The Law” or “Torah” of God, they think about condemnation or judgement. This is mostly your conscience talking, because you are guilty of sin.  But truly “The Law” or “Torah” was given to us by God as a road map to holiness.

The Hebrew meaning of the word “Torah” means direction, instruction, and teaching. The Torah is a roadmap laid out by your Heavenly Father so you can lead a peaceful and productive life. Billions of people around the world seek religions or read books looking for direction and enlightenment, God provides all of this in his “Torah”

Another reason for Torah is to define sin. Sin is obviously the downfall of mankind and what keeps us separated from God. So how would we know what sin is, unless it was defined in Gods “Torah”. Is God telling you this to condemn you, No he’s telling you these things to instruct you, to warn you, to keep you away from harm.

Just as a parent instructs their children, God is our Heavenly Father, and provides instructions for us to live a productive life. Now over time religion has abused the “Torah” and used it as a tool to condemn and control people. However the Bible tells us we are all guilty of sin. So does following the Torah make us righteous, No, only through Jesus Christ can we be made righteous.

However Gods Law or Torah , still should be the foundation for our life to follow, we are not perfect and are going to make mistakes, the blood of Christ has paid for our sins, the Word of God should be the lamp for our feet in Jesus Name Amen

“Behold, the former things have come to pass, Now I declare new things; Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.” Isaiah 42:9

What hope do you have for the future? Do you put your hope in working hard or maybe buying a lottery ticket? Well, God has promised to make all things new, the former things will pass away. So, what does that mean exactly? Well if you look currently, we have a lot of issues facing our future.

First issue is death, no matter how much money you have or successful you are, you can’t defeat death. But we have a savior who has defeated death for you and me. Not only that during the Resurrection we will be given perfect and immortal bodies, the way things were meant to be before sin entered the world

Second issue is The Earth, our homeland. Obviously, we have lots of issues with our planet including pollution, famine, and natural disasters. Well God has promised to create us a New Heaven and Earth, that way it was back in the Garden of Eden before Satan corrupted our Earth.

Third issue, disease, addiction, depression, anxiety, pain, ect. These will all be abolished. All the traps that keep you in chains today will be broken. No longer will have to worry about that illness or addiction you are battling. They have been defeated!

The former things are passing away, God is making all things new through Jesus Christ Amen!

‘Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ Isaiah 41:10

Do you live in fear or anxiety? This is a powerful message sent from your Creator! Don’t live in Fear, God is with You! Sounds like a simple message, but comforting knowing you are not alone. You are not facing these problems and trials all by yourself, God is with you!

Don’t be anxious because Yahweh is your God, he will strengthen You! There are many religions around the world, but none of them have a personal relationship with their people, like our God does.  Some religions are even afraid to approach their God, but our God encourages you to seek him and rely on him for strength and courage

God will uphold you with his “righteous right hand” Who sits at the right hand of God? Jesus Christ, sits at the right hand of God (Matthew 22:44) our Lord and Savior. We can do all things through Christ who give us strength! If God is for us who can be against Us! Don’t live in fear, Don’t live in anxiety, God is with you and will strengthen you in Jesus Name Amen!

The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever. Isaiah 40:8

Did you know we are reading the same sacred scriptures from thousands of years ago! So you might say how do we know this? The discovery of The Dead Sea Scrolls validated the authenticity and uncompromised of God’s Word. Even though there are several different English translations such as KJV, NASB, NIV, ect when you analyze the scriptures from the original manuscripts, they are extremely accurate. It shows you the power of God to be able to preserve his written Word for us.

The more you mature as a Christian, the more you realize it’s about striving for eternity and not temporary things. When we live for the world and strive for worldly things, they all eventually fade and disappear. But the Kingdom of God will stand forever and so will his Word. If you want to seek eternity, seek his counsel in the Bible. Gods plan is a plan for eternity not temporary

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. Matthew 24:35

Jesus tells us the Word of God  will never pass away. It is our Rock and foundation that we can build hope and victory for tomorrow on. Jesus is the Living Word (John 1:1) and he brought the Word to life here on Earth, so that we may never pass away either.

So the choice is yours, do you want to purse eternity or will you keep chasing the temporary pleasures of this world? There is only one way to eternal life and that’s through Jesus Christ Amen

“But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time; many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase.” Daniel 12:4

Are we in the end of time? A prophecy was revealed to Daniel about “knowledge increasing”. Has this Biblical prophecy been fulfilled today? Think about our culture and technology we have today. If you want an answer about a specific question, you can use your smart phone and google search the answer across thousands of resources. It hasn’t been that long ago when this would not even be possible. We are living in a technology age of “Knowledge Increase”

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, Matthew 28:19

The Great Commission of Jesus Christ to make disciple of ALL Nations, not just your town or even your country but the entire world. How would this be possible? Its possible today because of the Biblical Prophecy fulfillment of Daniel 12:4 . Today I can write a blog and spread the gospel to the entire world with a click or tap of a button. We are seeing Biblical Knowledge spread at an unseen rate. Christians can now use social media to fulfill Jesus commandments of The Great Commission. This is Biblical Prophecy being fulfilled right before your eyes

Those from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not permit their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb. Revelation 11:9

Revelation tells us about the two witnesses that will be killed by the Anti-Christ and there bodies will be seen by the entire world for 3 and half days until they are resurrected. Now how would it be possible for the entire world to see these witness killed and resurrected? Its possible today and happens on a daily basis with You Tube, Facebook Live, Twitter Live, ect.

We are living in the days of Biblical Prophecy is being fulfilled. Use this “Knowledge Increase” to spread the gospel to the entire world and get ready for the King of Kings is coming back soon in Jesus Name Amen
