260221 post Resting in Him

 02/21/26

Good morning Happy Saturday all,

May I testify,

Today I’m resting in Him, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Sabbath,

I rest in His Salvation, for He saved me

I rest in sanctification, for He is still working on me

I rest in serving Him with my time, talent & treasures

I rest in His Second coming, He’s coming soon for me and all who are saved, the children of God

PTL!!

Just saying, have great day in the Lord!!

A future Message from an Angel

 A future Message from an Angel

And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Read Rev. 14:1-7

These verses jump out at me, and I took notice while in my Wednesday night bible class.  Here we have a future message that is to come from an Angel of God who flew out from out the midst of Heaven. Having the message of the gospel, (see I Cor. 15:1-3) and proclaiming to the those who are on the earth.  Allow me to break down three points of this message for you.

#1 Fear God, (respect) 

#2 Give Him Glory (honor)

#3 Worship Him that made heaven & earth (adoration)

Notice this the message is to those who dwell on earth.  It's a future message but it applies today.  This is a great and gracious invitation to all. PTL!!

And notice message #4 a warning " the hour of His judgement come", the writer of Revelation, John the Apostle, saw this in the future and may say it's coming!! and very applicable now.

These things were written that you might believe.  I invite you hear Him and call on His name, pray.

Reading the bible is GOD speaking to you and praying is YOU speaking to GOD.

For whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be saved!! (see Rom10:9-10)

May God bless you Friend,

Proverbs 3:5-6

Christ is Born

 Christ is Born

Christ is born!!

And we have a wonderful Prophet with a great message for all on the earth.

Christ is Born!!

And we have a Great High Priest who intercedes for you me in Heaven.

Christ is Born!!

And we have a soon coming King to the earth from Heaven for us.

Yes indeed, CHRIST IS BORN!!

Ish. 9:6

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon his shoulder:
and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor,
The mighty God,
The everlasting Father,
The Prince of Peace.

For whosever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved, please pray and call on Him today.

 

The Stone Manger

 No matter how many times I read this, I just cannot do it without getting chills all over me!

I bet you didn’t know the following about the manger that Jesus was laid in. Of course, mangers are animal feeding troughs but in ancient Israel they were made of stone - not what you would see in a modern-day nativity scene. Not comfortable, but great for protection. That’s why those who were experts in this matter, the priests, would put their newborn lambs in them for protection. But not just any lamb, the unblemished perfect lambs that were used in the sacrifice for sins. And Bethlehem, where Jesus was born was FAMOUS for their UNBLEMISHED LAMBS used for the sacrifice. These lambs had to be perfect so they would wrap them tightly in cloth and lie them in the manger to keep them safe. This is exactly why the only time mangers are mentioned in Jesus’ birth story it is being told to shepherds. In Luke 2 it says “This will be a sign for you, you will find a baby wrapped in cloth and lying in a manger.” The shepherds would have understood this powerful parallel! THEY KNEW what the cloth and the manger meant! This baby would be THE PERFECT LAMB OF GOD! The Messiah who would sacrifice His life for the sins of the whole world. He wasn’t just a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger, He was GOD: perfect, sinless and Holy, humbling Himself to become the perfect sacrifice to reconcile us back to Himself!!

THAT my friend, that Perfect Lamb, is WHY we celebrate Christmas!!

May GOD bless you friend, call on Him today, He's just a prayer away.

And I know, I know, it's been a while since my last blog post, but here is :-)

Proverbs 3:5-6

The First day

 

In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Matt. 28:1

Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. Luke 24:1

The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre. John 20:1

Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come. 1 Cor. 16:2

The first day of the week, on our modern calendar is Sunday.  It is very interesting that the bible, GOD's Word, identifies the first day of the week being the day after the sabbath or Saturday.  

The early first century church established Sunday worship to commemorate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus, the first day of the week. This blog writer has no problem with this and I encourage you to meet GOD at church with other believers on the first day of the week.

Call on the good LORD today, while He is near.  Ask, seek and knock and it shall be opened upon you. Today is the day of salvation, seek ye Him.

May God bless you friend,

face to face and saved by grace

  Good morning, all, Happy Wednesday,

The phrase "face to face" was brought to my attention today, this morning. Instant #1 on Dr. David Jeremiah Twitter post, He reminded everybody that "one day we'll see Him face-to-face"

I read that post and started getting ready for the day and the song, "we shall see Him face-to-face, and tell the story saved by grace"

So instant #2 God brought the song to my heart and mind. (PTL!!)

Then instant # 3 I'm reading The Epistle of John this week,

2 John 1:12

Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.

Three times, GOD's number, so I know I need to share this with you all today.

For me, I am glad I will see Him face-to-face and truly I will tell story saved-by-grace!! (well praise the LOED anyway !!)

Don't know who it's for, perhaps for me, but I going to feast on the thought face-to-face and the story, SAVED BY GRACE!!

May GOD bless you all, Have a great Day!!

Doing the numbers with Jesus and his following

Doing the numbers with Jesus and his following.

And my friend, are you going about the business / call of the LORD ??  Have you been saved, born again and baptize ??  If not, call on Jesus today, start your relationship and live a life with Him.

Have a great day friend, a great day, and call on him.
