My TWO Births

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2Cor. 5:17

Well, I celebrated my two births this month, natural and spiritual. My natural birth into this world and my new birth for heaven, I have been pardon from the past, power for the present & peace for the future.

You see, first, because of my belief and trust in LORD Jesus Christ, I have pardon from my past sins, I have been made justified though faith, by the righteous judge, Jesus Christ, my life's record is clean, and it appears in GOD's eyes as though I have never sinned.

Secondly, I have power for my present life, my everyday life, as child of GOD, I learn to walk in His way, words and wisdom, a powerful resource for the Child of GOD, for daily living, learning and loving others.

Thirdly, I have peace for the Future. While in this life, I have peace with GOD. Then for the next life I have an eternal home for the future, which is Heaven.  The bible says, And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Heb. 9:27
A peace that surpasses ALL human understanding.

Well, AMEN!! Glory to GOD !! Believed in the LORD Jesus Christ today.

It's personal for me
It's positional, I'm a child of God in and for Heaven
It's Promised, to me and those believe that's based on GOD' word, the bible.

May GOD the Father bless you, please call on His son name, JESUS.

What's the next step for you ??

What's the next step for you ??

Eat, work or school and sleep. Perhaps eating three meals a day, working an eight hours day, going school and then home and sleep. The same old dull routine.  It sounds familiar doesn't it ??

BUT, in Jesus Christ you are made alive !! No longer dead and living in your sin. Perhaps the next step could be for you ??

FOR THE NEXT HAND YOU SHAKE COULD BE THE HAND OF THE SAVIOR 
The gospel song of years ago says, "put your hand in the hand of the man that stills the waters" put your hand in hand of the man that calms the sea, put your hand in the hand of the man of Galilee. An open invitation for you to reach out to Jesus by prayer through faith and He will save you with His Amazing Grace.
 
THE NEXT STEP YOU TAKE COULD BE ON STREETS OF PUREST GOLD 
Many do not think about the after life.  You must answer the question where will your soul spend eternity?? Well, sickness, auto accident and old age will lead to death, and what is your next step. Will it be Flames of Hell or the Beauty and sweetness of Heaven ??

AND YOUR NEXT MEAL COULD BE THE MARRIED SUPPER 
It recorded in the bible in the New Testament that GOD will gather ALL of His children and sit them  at a table in Heaven for supper. Do you think you'll be part of that ??

AND THE NEXT TOUCH YOU FEEL HE COULD BE BLESSING YOUR SOUL
You see, as you are thinking on these things, He, GOD the Father, could be blessing your soul with a Heavenly Salvation, for whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be saved. As GOD the Holy Spirit is speaking to you, call on GOD today. Accept His love to you, ask for forgiveness, Believe in the LORD Jesus Christ and Confess that He is LORD.

Read your bible and pray everyday as you step into your new walk. Then find a church that baptizes and ask to be baptize to identify yourself with Jesus Christ, as it is what he did and it identifies you with GOD's people the church. Baptism is that outward confession to GOD and man, as well as Christians.

Noah remained alive in the ark

and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. Gen 7:23

I must say, the later Bible translations,  leaves the word "alive" out of their translations, but KJV has it in italics,  the others say and only Noah was left, together with those that were with him in the ark. But there is enough spiritual truth here to make a great spiritual lesson.

Noah was in the ark and alive!!

He built it at the command of GOD. Hearing and following GOD's word, what a great thing to do and without any doubt. Although, some would say, Noah had many reasons to doubt. But he did not, as he walked with the LORD. He walked close to the LORD in those evil and wicked days. Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. And YOU may too friend.

Interesting to bible students, the ark had three level. As three reminds us of GOD, (Father, Son & Spirit) the three in one. 

It has been said that the ARK is a type of The LORD Jesus, in spiritual lessons.  As Noah was delivered in the ark, so are we delivered in Christ Jesus, as Noah was safe in the ark, so are we safe in Jesus Christ. For when we are saved we are in Christ.

Now notice,
Noah was alive in the ark with hope, following GOD
Noah was alive with Happiness, alive not seeing death
Noah was alive with a home, a new home as the other was destroyed by the floods
He and his family were in the ark saved from the flood, away from GOD's judgement.

Yes, you see Noah was trusting in GOD's plans, promises and provision. If Noah could trust in Him, perhaps you could too.

The Bible says for whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be saved. Why not call on Him today.

Once on a Hillside

Three hillside scenes

First, once on a hillside,
People were gathered, Hoping to see Him, as thousands were fed
He touched the blind eyes, healed broken spirits,
He moved with compassion, while He raised up the dead.
The feeding of the five thousand,   is reported by all four gospels (Matthew 14-Matthew 14:13-21; Mark 6-Mark 6:31-44; Luke 9-Luke 9:12-17; John 6-John 6:1-14). 

Second, once on a hillside,
people were gathered
Watching as Jesus was crucified, No one showed mercy, to the one who had healed them,
Yet, Jesus loved them, as He suffered and died
The crucifixion of Jesus is recorded in the New Testament books, in the bible, known as the Gospels - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. This story is the central summary of the saving Gospel of Jesus.

³² And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death. ³³ And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left. Luke 23:32-33

Thirdly, Once on a hillside, people were gathered, For Jesus had risen and soon would 

ascend, But then as He blessed them, He rose to the Heavens, And He gave them this 

promise: He'd come back again. Acts 1:9-11

 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud 

received him out of their sight.  10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he

went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;  11 which  also said, Ye men of 

Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you

 into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. 

Three hillside scenes recorded in the bible, GOD's holy word for you and me.

The feeding of the five thousand, his miracle of love and compassion. Then His crucifixion on

 hill far away, stood the old rugged cross, where Jesus died for you and, really for ALL, whosoever

that believe in Him. And His resurrection, rising from the dead, to live and intercede for us at the

right hand of the Heavenly Father.

Ask, Believe, Confess LORD Jesus Christ 💗✅🔑

(Disclosure, this blog post is based on the southern gospel song "We Shall see Jesus" and 

this and the bible is where I got my thoughts and ideas)

King David

King David

David's house
David's help
David's Home

It has been well documented in the Jewish (Israel's) history the lineage of King David. Jesus Christ is in the family and lineage of King David.  If you wonder about this see the book of Matthew, which clearly shows the lineage of Jesus going back to King David, which is consistent with secular history. The disciple Matthew connected it all together and he shows Jesus is the king of the Jews.

Yet David followed his GOD, the LORD GOD Jehovah.

David's house
Lord, I love the habitation of Your house And the place where Your glory dwells. Psa. 26:8
God's earthly house, GOD wanted to dwell among His people and He led the people of Israel to construct a tabernacle patterned after Moses' Tabernacle while they were in the wilderness. David loved the beauty, the brightness and boldness of the house. A place where GOD would meet Israel for atonement, prayer and fellowship. And David loved this house.

David's help
GOD helped David when he was a shepherd boy to protect his sheepfold from the loin and the bear. Then later defeated the giant Goliath with a sling and a stone in the name of the LORD during Israel's war will the Philistines. Even later, as he lead Israel as their King.

David's home
Surely goodness and loving kindness will follow me all the days of my life,And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psa.23:6
God's spiritual  house is the home in heaven and David long to be there, that home in heaven.

So as David chose and followed the LORD his GOD, you, my friend needs to choose and follow GOD.  

And you may and can, by accepting GOD's son, Jesus, into your heart and life. Jesus is GOD's way to salvation and way to heaven.  

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16

Ask, believe and confess, A-B-C
Ask Jesus to come into your life, Believe in your heart and confess Jesus is LORD.

You may and can do this through prayer, as you call on GOD today. And GOD will save you by His grace through faith in Him.

Then as a new born again child of GOD, go to a church and be baptized to publicly identify yourself with Jesus and God's people, the church.

 I pray you will and did, 💓💓💗🔑✅

Give your heart to JESUS

Give your heart to JESUS

Many years ago as pastor of my first church, we did calendar events on Sundays. Of course, when in February  we always had "Give your heart to Jesus Sunday" It worked well for Sunday school and the Bus ministry.

Now as I am blogging, I said why not do the same here. 💗🔑✅

Give your heart to Jesus today,
For this is for  the way,

Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6

Give your heart to Jesus today,
For this is for your present stay,

Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Psa 51:10

Give your heart to Jesus today,
For this this what He says.

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. v.13 or whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Rom.10:9,13
