The Word of God-Jack Blake
Wednesday, April 17, 2024Good Morning,
The word of God is powerful and sharper than any two edged sword and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4.12). Every word of God is pure (Proverbs 30.5), and truth (John 17.17). The gospel of Christ is the power of God to salvation for everyone (Romans 1.16). Read it, study it, trust it, obey it. It is a life changing experience.
Thank You, Father, for Your powerful word that will change the life of all who will believe and obey it. Help us to study a portion of Your word each day that we might be prepared to give an answer for the hope that is in us. And thank You for Jesus, our Savior and redeemer, for His church, and the blood He shed to purchase it. In Jesus name we pray. AMEN
The Light of the World-Jack Blake
Monday, March 25, 2024Greetings, Brethern anf Friends,
Jesus came as a light in the world, that whoever believes in Him should not abide in darkness - John 12.46. And scripture further tells us that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all - 1 John 1.5. Jesus does not want any to perish, and I do not want to be destroyed by sins darkness. So I choose to walk in the light of Jesus, not in the darkness of sin and I pray you do too.
Growing in Christ-Jack Blake
Friday, March 22, 2024Greeting Brethren and Friends,
Without faith it is impossible to please God - Hebrews 11.6. So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God - Romans 10.17. Christians are commanded to grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior - 2. Peter 3.18. Knowledge is one of the Christian graces we are to add to our faith - 2 Peter 1.5-7. Eternal life is knowing God and Jesus the Christ, whom He has sent - John 3.17, and is only possible through our knowledge of God's word - 2 Peter 1.2-3. It is our duty to learn and to teach all that Christ has commanded us - Matthew 28.20. Jesus said: "If you continue in My word, then you are My disciples indeed, and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free" - John 8.31-32. In prayer to the Father, Jesus said: "Your word is truth" - John 17.17. God's word is that truth which sets us free. God's word can be understood, so do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is - Ephesians 5.17.
