Created in God's Image-Jack Blake

Wednesday, July 03, 2024

Good Morning

God created man in His own image; in the image of God created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1.27.  Every one, says God, who is called by My name whom I have created for My glory; I have formed him, yes I have made him.  This people I have formed of Myself; they shall declare My praise. Isaiah 43.7, 21.  We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a special people that we may proclaim the praises of Him who has called us out of darkness and into His marvelous light. 1 Peter 2.9.  Therefore, by Him let us let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is the fruit of our lips giving thanks to His name.  For with such sacrifices, God is well pleased. Hebrews 13.15, 16.  You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honor and power; For You have created all things and by Your will they exist and were created. Revelation 4.11.

Praise the Lord!-Jack Blake

Good Morning

I will praise the Lord with my whole heart.  For the works of the Lord are great; the heavens declare His glory and the firmament displays His handiwork.  His works are studied by all who have pleasure in them.  His work is honorable and glorious and His righteousness endures forever.  He has made His wonderful works to be remembered.  The Lord, our Lord is gracious and full of compassio .  Praise the Lord, Oh my soul, praise His holy name and give to Him all glory and honor for He alone is worthy. Praise the Lord and be thankful for His mercy and His saving grace.

See Psalms 19.1; Psalms 107.21; Psalms 111.1-4

Life is like a vapor-Jack Blake

Monday, July 01, 2024

James has rightly said: "Life is like a vapor that appears for a time and then vanishes away." James 4.14.  This is a true statement because, it is also written that it is appointed for men once to die, and then comes the judgement. Hebrews 9.27.  It is God who has the power to give life and to take life as He chooses.  Today, this day, God has provided for us to live, rejoice and be glad in it to do His good pleasure. Psalms 118.24.  So, since life is short and death and judgement are real and coming, let us open up our hearts and let the Son shine in.  Let us hold fast to the word of life and do all things without complaining and disputing that we may become blameless and harmless children of God without fault in the midst of this crooked and perverse generation in which we live, and let our light shine brightly so others might see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven. Philippians 2.13-16; Matthew 5.16.  God wants us to live and be happy while doing His will.  Rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those who weep. Romans 12.15.  God is counting on us, will we be successful in living and serving Him?

Wages of Sin-Jack Blake

Saturday, June 29, 2024

GOOD MORNING,

By ONE man sin entered into the world, and DEATH by sin; and so DEATH passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. Romans 5.12.  For all have sinned and fall short of God's glory. Romans 3.23, and the WAGES of sin is DEATH.  But through Jesus the Christ our Lord, God has gifted us with eternal life. Romand 6.23.  God commanded His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, CHRIST DIED FOR US. Romans 5.8.  This gift from God is the gospel; given and enjoyed by all who have heard it preached receive it and stand by it.

By it we are saved, if we keep in memory this preaching of Christ and the Apostles, unless our belief is in vain.  According to the scriptures, CHRIST DIED for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. See 1 Corinthians 15.1-4.  By God's grace we are saved through our faith; not of ourselves it is THE GIFT of GOD; not of works lest any man should boast. See Ephesians 2.8,9.  This is the testimony:that God has given us eternal life and this life is in His Son.  If we have the Son, we have life, if we do not have the Son we have not life.  Believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5.11-13.

All emphasis are mine.

Not discouraged but be of good courage-Jack Blake

Thursday, June 27, 2024

Good 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.
