Decide to follow Jesus-Jack Blake
Wednesday, November 20, 2024Good Morning, JESUS, the Christ, King of all kings, Lord of all lords is the one I have decided to follow, because He lives still today, seated at the right hand throne of God. He is my bread when I'm hungry, my shelter from troubled winds, my anchor in life's ocean, who has the words of eternal life. JESUS, my best friend, merciful, forgiving and full of grace towards us. JESUS my only reason for living. He is the way the truth and the life, the only way to the Father is through Him. JESUS, the only name under heaven by which we must be saved. JESUS, just and fair in His judgements, the one all will stand in front of on that great and glorious day to give an account of the things done on earth, in this body whether good or bad. We have no greater friend than JESUS, for there is no friend like the lowly JESUS, no not one. These are just some of the reasons I try to take up my cross daily and follow JESUS. Decide this day whom you will follow. Thanks for reading..
Help from above-Jack Blake
Tuesday, November 19, 2024Good Morning, When the storms of life are raging deep inside, children of God, disciples of Christ, turn their eyes upon Jesus and turn the pages of His word where they find help from above with promise. For behold, God is our helper who has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of sound mind. To His servants the Lord has said; "fear not for I am with you. Be not dismayed for I am your God, I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. I will never leave you nor forsake you." We trust in the Lord and obey His commandments and can say boldly, The Lord is my helper, I will not fear. Man cannot be trusted, help cannot be found in treasures or other worldly things. Help is found in no other than the Lord. Psalms 54.4; 2 Timothy 1.7; Isaiah 4.10;Hebrews 13.5-6.
The Eye is the Lamp of the Body-Jack Blake
Monday, November 18, 2024Good Morning, The lamp of the body is the eye according to the scriptures. If the eye is good the whole body is filled with light. If the eye is bad the whole body is filled with darkness. If the light in us is darkness, how great is that darkness? Turn your eyes upon Jesus and His cross and let the light of His word so shine that others will see your good works and glorify the Father in heaven. Matthew 6.22-23; Matthew 5.16; Luke 11.34-36.
Jesus is Coming-Jack Blake
Saturday, November 16, 2024Good Morning, Take care, brethren, that there not be in any one of you an evil unbelieving heart that falls away from the living God. But encourage one another day after day as long as it is called today, so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. Hebrews 3.12-13. For it is appointed for man once to die, THEN COMES THE JUDGEMENT! So Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin but to those who eagerly await Him. Hebrews 9.27-28. Let everyone who is godly pray to God in a time He may be found acknowledging our sins to him, and not try to hide our iniquities from Him, but confess our transgressions to Him. Psalms 32.5-6. Jesus is coming in the clouds one day soon, morning or night or noon, only God knows the hour. Until then we, need to prepare our hearts, know His commandments, and do them.
The Word, the Cross, the Gospel-Jack Blake
Friday, November 15, 2024Good Morning, The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing. But to us who are being saved, it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1.18. AndI I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation. Romans 1.16. God's grace which brings salvation has appeared to all men and teaches us to live soberly, righteously and godly in this present age, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts. The Lord sets apart for Himself those who through obedience to His word are godly, those who love Him with all their heart, soul, and mind and those who are strong and courageous, take up their cross daily and follow Him. It is by way of the cross that leads us to our heavenly, eternal home. So seek you first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and meditate on His word which is true, just, pure, lovely and of good report and remain faithful to Him until death and you will recvive the crown of life. Revelation 2.10. God wishes none to perish but that all men everywhere would repent and come to Him. We owe our life to Him, He gave His life for us.
