Citizens of God's Kingdom-Jack Blake
Wednesday, July 31, 2024Good Morning,
Being thankful this morning that our citizenship is not on this earth, but in heaven living eternal with our Lord. It is sometimes difficult t0 live in this world with those who are enemies of the cross, whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their mind own earthly things. While we (God's children) eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lorde, Jesus Christ who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself. What a day, glorious day, that will be. Be strong and courageous, brethren, the battle belongs too the Lord and we will be victorious in the end!
In Good Hands-Keith Greer
Tuesday, July 23, 2024Good Morning,
Life can always show us how sudden things can change in our lives that catch one off guard. We are disappointed that these inconveniences must be endured and accept the changes they will bring into our lives. Yet, please remember some things. God is still with us to bear our burdens, Hebrews 13:5-6; our brethren are always praying for us, James 5:16. When we have these situations it’s a time to allow our faith and trust in Him who can help us through all of our troubles, Romans 8:28. Yes, our plans must change but in a little while they can be fulfilled later. This will presents an opportunity for each of us to step up and help our brother to take care of things he won’t be able to do for little while, Romans 12:15; Galatians 6:9-10. Rest well my brother you are in good hands!
Storms Disciples will face-Jack Blake
Tuesday, July 16, 2024Good Morning,
I pray that my families, both physical and spiritual, survived the storms last night and are in the safe mode this morning. Disciples, that is followers of Christ, have been and will always be in a battle with storms of life, both physical and spiritual. But we are never alone during these times. God is in charge of the weather, (the physical storms), and the spiritual storms also. He is our refuge and our strength in both the physical and spiritual battles. As Long as we remain faithful to Him, and put full faith and trust in Him, He has promised to never leave nor forsake us. Hebrews 13.5. But without this faith it is impossible to please Him, Hebrews 11.6. And it is written: "Now the just shall live by faith; but if anyone draws back My soul has no pleasure in them." Hebrews 10.38. It is also written that only those who remain faithful until death will receive the crown of life, See Revelation 2.10. To God alone, be faithful and be true.
If God be for Us=Jack Blake
Saturday, July 13, 2024Good Morning,
If God be for us, who can be against us? What can separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? No, for in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. See Romans 8.29,31,35-39. Be of good courage, and He said hallelujah, strengthen your heart, all you that hope in the Lord. Psalms 31.24. God loves those who love and keep His commandments
Not discouraged but be of good courage-Jack Blake
Thursday, June 27, 2024Good Morning,
We sometimes become discouraged in life. But help to overcome is as close as the scriptures. Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me. Psalms 138.7. Jesus said in John 14.1: "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in me. For "peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14.27. So let us not be weary in well doing, be of good courage and He will strengthen the heart of all that hope in the Lord. Psalms 31.24. Wait on the Lord.
