Praise God-Jack Blake

Thursday, June 13, 2024

Good Morning,

Thinking and giving praise to my Lord this morning!  I praise Him for His power, strength and endurance, His word that guides us in this life and for His salvation. What a comfort and joy too be a child of His; He is the fountain of life, His words are the words of life. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life and there is no other way to the Father except through Him.  HOW CAN ANY ONE REFUSE THIS ONE WHO LOVES US SO?  How can those of us who have tasted of His goodness leave His side and go back to the destructive ways of this world.  Oh, how sweet to trust in Jesus just to take Him at His word.

Father, thank you for your loving Son, Jesus the Christ, who lived a life of sorrow and grief and was despised and rejected and finally crucified on that old rugged cross for our sins so we could have a more abundant life. Thank You for Your word and help us each day to recognize who You are and find the joy in following the pattern which was left for us in Your word.  AMEN.

The Son of God-Jack Blake

Wednesday, June 12, 2024

Good Morning,

If we have been crucified with Christ, buried with Him in baptism, see Romans 6. then it is no longer we who live but Christ now lives in us and the life we now live in the flesh, we live by faith in the Son of God. Galatians 2.20. So let us study to be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.  Let us walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work, strengthened with all might according to His glorious power for all patience and long-suffering with joy. See Colossians 1.9-10, for we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared before hand that wen should walk in them Ephesians 2.10.

Do Nor be Conformed to the World-Jack Blake

Tuesday, June 11, 2024

Good Morning,

Do not be conformed to the world; the world is full of empty deceit and wickedness.  The world hates God and all who follow Him.  The world listens and hears those who speak and do worldly things.  But we are to come out from among them, and be transformed by the renewing of your mind, for the beloved Son of God, Jesus has overcome the world. John 16.33.  By and through Him, we become God's children and He hears us, for He is the head of all principality and power; in Him we are complete. Colossians 2.9-10.  Love and trust God, for He is the only one who can save your poor wicked soul.

See also Romans 12.2;

Battle With the Flesh-Jack Blake

Monday, June 10, 2024

Good Morning,

In Galatians 5, we are told to walk in the Spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.  There is a constant battle going on inside us between the Spirit and the flesh and these two are contrary to each other. Continue reading from Galatians5.16 to the end of the chapter and note especially Galatians5.24-25.  To walk the Spirit is to walk in love, having the mind of Christ.  And when I look at 1 Corinthians 13 and read what love is and is not.  I have to ask myself, do I show this love to others and do I truly have the mind of Christ. I most certainly can do better!
