God Said-Jack Blake
Monday, September 30, 2024Good Morning,
God said three things that should cause everyone to tremble. 1.) Unless you repent, you will all likewise perish, Luke 13.3-5, 2.) Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the Kingdom of heaven... 3.) Whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me cannot be My disciple, Luke 14.27. And Paul, being moved by the Holy Spirit tells us that Jesus will take vengeance on them who do not know God and obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. punishing them with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and the glory of His power. 2 Thessalonians 8.9. God have mercy on us as we struggle in this sinful world. Strengthen our faith and give us understanding and encouragement. In Jesus name, AMEN
Hard Choices-Jack Blake
Tuesday, September 03, 2024Good Morning,
In Matthew 7.13,.14 we read: "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads too destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." Jesus said it and I believe it. Still it is a hard choice to make considering the crooked and perverse generation in which we live. It seems much easier to go with the flow of the ways of the world, than to take the difficult and narrow way to life. But those who are disciples of Christ must work diligently and soberly to make the choice of the narrow way if we hope to have eternal life with our God. We must remind ourselves daily that our adversary, the devil is walking around to see who he can devour. Be careful of choices you make.
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.
God's Word is Light-Jack Blake
Tuesday, August 27, 2024Good Morning,
God's word is our guide for living here. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalms 119.105. Keep your Fathers commandments, bind them continually on your heart, tie them around your neck. When you roam, they will lead you, when you sleep they will keep you and when you awake, they will speak with you. For the commandment is a lamp and the law a light; reproofs of instruction is the way of life, to keep us from evil. Jesus said to those Jews who believed on Him, "If you continue in My word, then are you My disciples in deed; And you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free."

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.
