Good Morning,  

But know that the Lord has set apart the godly man for Himself; the Lord hears. Tremble and do not sin; meditate in your heart upon your bed and be still. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and trust in the Lord. In peace I will both lie down in peace and sleep, for You alone Lord. O Lord, make me to dwell in safety.  

Psalms 4.3-5 & 8.

Good Morning,  

We are living in difficult and trying times. On one hand, God is telling us to be different from the world while on the other hand, our adversary, the devil is pulling and tugging on us to leave God and follow his evil, destructive ways. We can spend far too much time worring about tomorrow and things we do not have any control over. But Jesus said, do not be unwise but understand what the will of the Lord is and walk circumspectly; not as fools but as wise redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5.16-17, and turn your eyes upon Jesus for burdens are lifted at Calvary.

Good Morning,  

According to the scriptures, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11.1. Faith is a very necessary part of the disciple's life; for without faith we cannot please Him, for to come to God, one must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Hebrews 11.6. Our faith comes by hearing and doing the word of God. Romans 10.17. To be a Christian means we are in Christ and Christ abides in us, so we walk by faith, not by sight, in confidence that when we leave this body we will be present with the Lord. Our faith must be a working, obedient faith, a faith that grows as we add to it. James 2.14-17; 2 Peter 1.5-8. In the life of the disciple, faith is the victory that overcomes the world.

Good Morning,  

Our past sins were the result of character traits that the disciple must get rid of. All past sins which we have truly repented of, God has forgiven and we must replace them by virtues of God's character, see 2 Peter 1.3-11. This does not happen overnight, but is a process which takes time and patience. It is also necessary that we are diligent in the study, hearing and doing His will. Transformation is a rebuilding of our character and does not happen automatically by divine decree, we must embrace the process actively with all our heart and submit to God's training, however long it may take. Failure to do so can and probably will result in returning to our old character of sinful living. God have mercy and increase our faith.  AMEN

Good Morning,  

Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, the beloved Son of God, is the light and the life of the world, the true light of men, came into the world that was made through Him, but the world did not know Him.  There were some who walked with Him, knew Him, and believed in Him who went back and walked with Him no more, and Jesus asked His Apostles: "Do you also want to go away?"  But Peter answered: "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life, and WE HAVE AND KNOW THAT YOU ARE THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD." As the disciples of Christ, living in this world which was made through Christ and which man has turned into hate and wickedness, must continue to walk with our Lord, in the light of His word so we too can come to believe and know Him on a personal and intimate basis.  

See John 1.66-69.
