Seeking God
Seek and Find God-Jack Blake
Thursday, August 29, 2024Good Morning,
Seek you first the Kingdom of God. Mattew 6.33. For whoever finds Me, finds life and obtains favor from the Lord. But he who sins against Me, wrongs His own soul; and those who hate Me, love death. Proverbs 8.30-31. Fear the Lord and keep His commandments, for this is man's all. Ecclesiastes 12.13. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil; pride and arrogance and the evil way. And the perverse mouth I hate. Proverbs 8.13. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. If You love Me, keep My commandments." John 14 6-15.
The Two Greatest Commandments-Jack Blake
Thursday, August 22, 2024Good Morning,
Love God with all your being!! Love your neighbor as yourself!! Christ said these are the two greatest commandments, said the Master of all things in heaven and on earth. Matthew 22.36-39. And yet, and yet, too many humans who were created by God don't get it and I wonder why. God help us.
Help on Our Journey-Jack Blake
Monday, August 19, 2024Good Morning,
It's such a pretty day today in St. John The sun is brightly shining and God is showing His splendor and beauty in all the eye can see and the hands touch.
Father, thank you for this day you have provided for us, for your word on which we stand that guides us and gives us hope and reason to go on. The heavens truly declare your glory and the firmament shows your handiwork. Psalms 19.1. While even though our outward man is perishing yet the inner man is being renewed day by day 2 Corinthians 4.16, as we study your word to hear and do Your will. Thank you, Father, for all you do to help us on our journey through this pilgrim land to our eternal, heavenly home. In Jesus name we pray. AMEN
Contend for the Faith-Jack Blake
Saturday, August 17, 2024Good Morning,
The days are evil, but we as Christians are to walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil. Ephesians 5.15-16. Regardless of circumstances of the world, we must continue earnestly contending for the faith which was once for all delivered to the Saints. Jude 3. Love God with all your being. Matthew 22.37. Put your trust in in God and His word not in man. Our salvation is found only ion the Lord.
Message to me.
Faith and I-Jack Blake
Tuesday, August 13, 2024GoodMorning,
Faith is more than saying, I know God and I trust God. Faith is not doing things here and now so we can receive blessings from God in this present life. No, to me faith is a goal with the end result of going to heaven to be eternally with my savior. Without faith there is no hope. Here on this earth I am just a servant of God to do good, avoid evil and help others on their journey through this sin sick world. Without faith it is impossible to please God.
