Trust in the Lord-Jack Blake
Saturday, June 01, 2024Good Morning,
Trust in the Lord. Obey His commandments. For He is a true friend who has promised to never leave nor forsake all who will abide in Him. In times of darkness, He will light the way. In times of trouble, He provides strength, that we may endure and be victorious over trials, tribulations and temptations. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind, because He first loved you and gave His life for you. A hope for our inheritance and eternal life.
A Blessed Nation-Jack Blake
Tuesday, May 28, 2024Good Morning,
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance (Psalms 33.12). When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan (Proverbs 29.2). We are always asking for God to bless America, and God has blessed this nation beyond measure; Maybe it's time for America to bless God with a thankful heart. Turn back to Him in repentance and He will become our God, and we, His people. There is no other way but His.
Our Hope is In God-Jack Blake
Monday, May 27, 2024Good Morning,
The whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one. And according to the proverbs of the ancients, wickedness proceeds from the wicked (1 Samuel 24.13). And like it or not, we have to live in this broken sin filled world. But there is hope for the faithful obedient, for we are of God.(1 John 5.19). As children of God, we still must grow in the Spirit and in the likeness of our creator while being surrounded by the troubles and evils of the world.
Father, You are our strength and only hope to help us overcome the evil one and his wicked ways. As we humble ourselves under Your mighty hand, Father, we give praise, honor and glory to your most holy name. Praising and blessing You for Your truth, Your greatness, Your goodness, Your mercy and Your loving kindness. Father, as our creator and the God of our salvation, we thank you for Your word on which we stand, and for Jesus who gave His life for us that we might have a more abundant life. This we pray in Jesus name. AMEN.
Fruitful in God's Work-Jack Blake
Tuesday, May 21, 2024Good Morning,
Thus says the Lord; "Everyone who is called by My name, whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes I have made him." (Isaiah 43.7). "This people I have formed for Myself; they shall declare My praise. (V21). By Him let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is the fruit of our lips giving thanks to His name. Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. (Hebrews 13.15;16). Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power; for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. (Revelation 4.11). Lest we forget, we were created to do all things that will bring glory, honor, and praise to God. May we always walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him and being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God. (See Colossians 1.10).
Thinking of God-Jack Blake
Monday, May 20, 2024Good Morning,
What beautiful thoughts I am thinking of Jesus and the pattern He has left us about how to live a pure and blameless life. How He has taught us the true meaning of love and forgiveness toward others. How He speaks of the persecutions we may face in this life and how He will never leave us nor forsake in these times but will be our help during these times of danger. How He gave His life for us so we might have life and have it more abundantly. My faith looks up to thee, Lord, my will I surrender to Your will. I must have Jesus to guide me, guard me and protect me against the evils of this ungodly generation. It is unreal that He has taught me all that is good, and only requires of me to do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with my God.
What beautiful thoughts I am thinking. Thank You Father for Your Son, for your word, and for Your love which gives us salvation.
