Blessings from God
The Inescapable God-Jack Blake
Tuesday, April 16, 2024Good Morning,
God sits on His holy throne and reigns over the nations (Psalms 47). He rules by His power forever; His eyes observe the nations (Psalms 66.7). The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good (Proverbs 15.3). We cannot escape His Spirit, nor flee from His presence. He is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent (Revelation 19.6; Psalms139.1-4; 7-12). He is our all in all, above all, and in all who will believe, trust and obey Him. He is the great I AM. See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him, who spoke on the earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven (Hebrews 12.25). Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today if you will hear His voice." ( Read Hebrews 3.7-11 for complete context).
Promises of God-Jack Blake
Saturday, April 06, 2024Greetings Friends, and Brethren,
If you reading this then be thankful! For this day was made possible by God through His love, mercy and grace. It is the day made by God; so be glad and rejoice in it. (Psalms 119.24). It was by the divine power of God that we have been given all things that pertain to life and godliness. (2 Peter 1.3). He has shown us what is good and only requires us to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with Him (Micah 6). To show our love for Him, let us walk worthy of the vocation wherewith we were called, with all lowliness, meekness and logsuffering, forbearing one another in love and endeavoring to keep the Spirit in the bond of peace. (Ephesians 4.1-3). May the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body, and be thankful. (Colossians 3.15). Trust in Him, obey His commandments, stay grounded deep in His love, steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord and be faithful until death, then you will receive the crown of life. (Revelation 2.10). For God has promised and you shall receive.
A Friday Morning Prayer-Jack Blake
Friday, April 05, 2024Greetings, Friends and Brethren let's pray.
Father, we are thankful for Your Son, Jesus, who gives us the way to eternal life and for Your rich mercy and for Your word. Precious Lord, we ask this morning that You will keep us safe in You everlasting arms and shelter us from the evil one. Give us peace and stillness to quiet our souls when the troubled winds of life blow. May we ever be anchored in Your love, steadfast and immovable as we do Your work according to Your will. Forgive us our repented sins. And take us by Your righteous right hand and lead us gently Home.
In Jesus Name AMEN.
Living for Jesus-Jack Blake
Tuesday, April 02, 2024Greetings Brethren and Friends,
Having been buried with Christ Jesus through baptism into death, just as He was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we also should walk in newness of life. We now belong to Him and those who are His have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. No longer do we let sin reign in our mortal bodies that we should obey its lusts, but now present ourselves to God as being alive from the dead and our members as instruments of righteousness to God. In this new life we now live in His truth and strive to please Him in all we do, that we may walk worthy of the Lord fully pleasing Him. Out of our pure love for Christ we are committed to obey His commandments. Live for Jesus, give Him all you have to give, for if we died with Him, we shall also live with Him and if we endure we shall also reign with Him. But if we deny Him, He will also deny us.
Romans 6.3-4;Galatians 5.24; Romans 6.12-13; Colossians 1.10; John 14.15; 2 Timothy 2.11-12.
Make the Day Count-Jack Blake
Thursday, March 28, 2024Greetings Friends,
Love never fails, we should never fail to walk by faith in the light of God's word. We must always strive to keep the unity of Spirit in the bond of peace. Do not grow weary in well doing. Lean on Jesus when the storms of life prevail, He will see you through for He has promised to never leave nor forsake you. Trust, obey, add to your faith, be faithful unto death and receive the crown of life. What the Lord promised, He will do for He is a just God who cannot lie.
