Trust in the Lord-Jack Blake
Thursday, July 18, 2024Good Morning,
TRUST in the Lord with all your heart, and LEAN NOT on your own understanding; in all your ways ACKNOWLEDGE Him, and He shall DIRECT your paths. DO NOT be WISE in your own eyes. FEAR the Lord and DEPART FROM EVIL. It will be health to your flesh and strength to your bones. HONOR the Lord with your POSSESSIONS and with the FIRSTFRUITS of your increase. Proverbs 3.5-9. LOVE the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind. SEEK First His Kingdom, and HIS righteousness. Matthew 22.38, Matthew 6.33. STOP ANGERING THE LORD. He is your CREATOR, SUSTAINER of your life and YOUR SALVATION.
Fruit of Their Ways-Jack Blake
Wednesday, July 17, 2024Good Morning,
It is the wise man who benefits from the mistakes of others. One day soon it will be too late to have any gain or profit from those experiences of others and advice they have tried to give us. The wise man Solomon in Proverbs 1.28-31 described wisdom saying, "then they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me. Because they hated knowledge and did not choose the fear of the Lord, would have none of My counsel and despised all my reproof, therefore they shall eat the fruit of their way, and have their fill of their own devices. Pride is the main reason that keeps us from listening to others and profiting from their experiences. Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16.18.

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.
True peace and quietness-Jack Blake
Monday, July 15, 2024Good Morning,
Peace and quietness comes to all whose faith and trust is in the Lord. Those who form a willing godly, repentive, obedient heart, seeking the Kingdom of God, have an inner peace that surpasses all understanding. If we know and do all His commandments, Abide in His word, and His love, pray without ceasing, giving thanks for everything, 1 Thessalonians 5.17-18. And in word and deed, do all in the name of Lord Jesus being thankful through Him, Colossians 3.17. Your light will shine brightly, and others will see your good works and glorify our Heavenly Father, Matthew 5.16. And you will experience a true inner peace that can only come from living a quiet godly life. "Be still and know that I am God." Thus says the Lord.
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
