Live by Faith-Jack Blake
Monday, August 12, 2024Good Morning,
The child of God lives by faith, not by sight and has great hope in hearing on judgement day, good job faithful servant, enter into My rest. Our focus should not be on the here and now, but on the hope of getting to be with Him eternally. By this our love is perfected by us and we should be glad, thankful and rejoice even though for a little while in this life we may be grieved by troubles, trials, tribulations and temptations, and the genuineness of our faith which is more precious than gold that perishes even having been been tested by fire, may result in praise, glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus the Christ. Peter said, though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and rejoice with great joy filled with glory obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 1 Peter 1.6-9.
Memories and God-Jack Blake
Saturday, August 10, 2024Good Morning,
We all have memories of past life experiences, some good and some not so good. Our past experiences are what make us what we are today. But we sometimes consume so much of our time on memories that we lose sight of our God, His Son and our purpose in life. Some things are difficult to forget, still we must grow in the Lord adding self control to our faith. This is necessary if we are to live a God centered life in the present time and make good memories for tomorrow. It may not be easy, but God gives us strength and courage to endure.
This message is to self.
Believe in God-Jack Blake

If you become discouraged, worried, lonely, or depressed, you can find comfort and help in John 14.1. Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. And in Philippians 4. 6-8, Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God that surpasses all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ. Cast all your cares on Him for He cares for you. Let the peace of God rule in your hearts for God is our refuge our strength real help in time of trouble. He has promised to never leave nor forsake the faithful.
The Lord is Great-Jack Blake

The Lord is great and greatly to be praised. Psalms 96.4. Let us humble ourself under God's mighty hand as we walk with Him fearing Him, knowing and keeping His commandments. Having the mind of Christ, being kindly affectioned to one another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another. May the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, dwell in our hearts, and serve Him with gladness, being thankful for all things.
Faith in God-Jack Blake

According to the scriptures, Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen Hebrew 11.1. Without faith it is impossible to please God. Hebrews 11.6. Now faith comes by hearing the word of God. Romans 10.17. Without faith, it is impossible to be pleasing to God, for all who come to God must believe that He is, and is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Disciples walk by with, not by sight 2 Corinthians 5.7.
Lord I believe, increase my faith and help my unbelief.
