God's Word

In order to fully (as far as humanly possible) understand who God is and what He wants from His creation, one must study the Bible - read, memorize, internalize, apply, share the WORD.  Rather than seeking to please man (humans), a person should study to show him/herself approved by the Holy Triune God.  By diligent study and seeking of God (Jeremiah 29:12-13), each individual grows in living relationship with God. 

 The focus of the study of the Word of God should be "What does the Bible say"  in response to any question about how to live one's life or to provide guidance to another person.  This focus leads to the demand that one surrenders control of one's life to God and to turn away from sin.  "Biblical teaching on faith joins credence, commitment, and communion: it exhibits Christian Believing as not only knowing facts about Christ, but also coming to Him  in personal trust to worship, love, and serve Him."(J.I. Packer)  Translated into simpler terms, following the Bible is done by heart, mind and soul in total trust of who God is and what He has accomplished in restoring mankind to a relationship with Him.  This means that the sinner must turn away from sin and trust God to reformat the thought processes and the emotional responses to any given event.  

So study the WORD of God (all 66 books of the Bible) asking God to lead you into a deeper relationship with Him.

Daily ask:

What do the WORD really say and  want me to understand?

How would Jesus respond to _______________(situation, person, idea)

How do I apply the knowledge I am gaining?

How did Jesus respond to the people around Him and share saving grace?

How do I share Jesus with people I meet, with my friends, my family, with my coworkers?

What is saving faith?

Daily read the word of God asking for His guidance and reassurance.  TRUST [Depend on] God in all things with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  Daily (hourly if needed) surrender control of your life asking God what He wants you to do, say, feel, see.

Go boldly into the presence of the Most High God

As a child of God, I have the right and privilege to come into the presence of the Holy Pure God because of the blood sacrifice of Jesus, 2000 years ago.  As His child, I can be assured that He will listen to me and answer my questions, statements, and pleas for help. Today, March 16, 2020 President Trump declared that the United States is in a war with a world wide enemy - Corvid 19 or the Corona Virus.  This fast moving killer of the elderly and weak invaded the world and has spread like a meteor strike.  Many people have felt the effects of this virus personally for them I raise my pleas that God will give them comfort, healing, and peace.  For those indirectly affected, I ask that God will pour His peace of spirit and knowledge into their hearts and minds.  I am asking all of my brothers and sisters in the LORD JESUS CHRIST to pray continually and diligently that God will move swiftly to eradicate this horrible threat to humanity.  I pray that God g...

Lessons in Life

 Each day the Lord opens His heart to His children and demonstrates the way to make wise decisions and choices. Yet all too often people close their eyes and ears to what is really happening around them.  They do no see the needs of people - physical, mental, spiritual.  People need to look for ways to open their minds to the guidance of God.   Watch for chances to serve others and to celebrate their strengths and hopes. Wait for God to open doors or windows for you to move through. Pray daily, in humility and desire to follow Jesus more closely. Please Lord Jesus pour your love through me on to others - strangers, friends, family.  Guide my thoughts so that I continually seek to know you in a real loving relationship.  Give me the strength of spirit to do what you want done.  Let me hide myself in you - my Rock and my Salvation.  Amen WATCH WAIT PRAY

Growing in God's garden

God has planted a beautiful garden that grows and produces fruit.  As he tends his garden, He often prunes and removes dead growth.  During this time, the pain of the process cause His children to accuse Him of rejecting them.  God grows an organized well structured garden and desires the best for each person. Now during this time of pandemic and hate, more than ever before the Children of God must deepen their roots and offer shelter to those in need.  The question becomes how. God offers patterns for Spiritual Growth -  1. Assurance of Salvation - Do you know in your heart that you are saved?  Read 1 John 5:13 2. Understanding you are forgiven - The one willing sacrifice of Jesus who gave His life for you is all you need.  Read Ephesians 1:7 3.  Desire to study the Word of God - read the Life manual of God daily.  1 Peter 2;2 4. Pray CONSTANTLY - communicate with God always about all things  Philippians 4:6 5. Be a witness for Jesus by...
