DEBES RENACER


No puedes educar a un esclavo en la realeza porque nació un esclavo,  y si lo pones en un palacio seguirá siendo un esclavo porque en su corazón él es un esclavo. No se puedes educar a un pecador y hacerle un hijo de Dios porque él nació en la esclavitud del pecado. Jesús dijo que el que peca es esclavo del pecado.

Necesitas ser RENACIDO, tienes que ser RENACIDO EN LA REALEZA, necesitas NACER EN EL REINO DE DIOS o de lo contrario, en el CORAZÓN SERÁS SIEMPRE un ESCLAVO DEL PECADO. No puedes educar a una persona para ser un hijo de Dios, él necesita renacer  y eso es lo que Jesús quiso decir cuando dijo a Nicodemo, como está escrito en Juan 3:3-8 "Respondió Jesús y le dijo: De cierto, de cierto te digo, que el que no naciere de nuevo, no puede ver el reino de Dios. 4 Nicodemo le dijo: ¿Cómo puede un hombre nacer siendo viejo? ¿Puede acaso entrar por segunda vez en el vientre de su madre, y nacer? 5 Respondió Jesús: De cierto, de cierto te digo, que el que no naciere de agua y del Espíritu, no puede entrar en el reino de Dios. 6 Lo que es nacido de la carne, carne es; y lo que es nacido del Espíritu,  espíritu es. 7 No te maravilles de que te dije: Os es necesario nacer de nuevo. 8 El viento sopla de donde quiere, y oyes su sonido; mas ni sabes de dónde viene, ni a dónde va; así es todo aquel que es nacido del Espíritu.”

Una persona renace del Espíritu de Dios ES UN HOMBRE NUEVO. El mundo no le entiende y por eso Jesús dijo que Él es como el viento, no sabes de dónde viene  ni adónde va a continuación, porque esa persona es conducida por el Espíritu de Dios. Puede ver el Reino de Dios.

Si no has renacido no te lo puedes imaginar, no puedes entender el Reino de Dios, no eres del Reino de Dios, no eres de la realeza, ERES UN PECADOR. ¡Necesitas RENACER!  

 El que está en Cristo es un HOMBRE NUEVO, las cosas viejas pasaron, ÉL YA NO ES un ESCLAVO DEL PECADO, él es la realeza, es un hijo de Dios, él ES UN SANTO.  

¿Has renacido? ¿Quieres renacer y convertirse en un hijo de Dios? Entonces debes ARREPENTIRTE, debes PONERTE DE RODILLAS y LLAMAR A JESÚS. Decirle: "Señor, quiero que seas mi Señor y Maestro.

¡No quiero ser un esclavo del pecado nunca más! ¡Por favor, libérame de la esclavitud del pecado! No quiero vivir nunca más la vida de pecador. ¡Quiero ser un hijo de Dios!" Jesús te libertará. Te perdonará tus pecados pasados y te hará libre de la esclavitud del pecado y adicción. ¡Te hará de la realeza, te hará renacer! Te hará un hijo de Dios y luego tendrás que ir a enterrar el que fuiste, debes SER BAUTIZADO EN AGUA para que el hombre del pasado en pecado pueda ser enterrado bajo el agua y fuera de ella nacer un hombre nuevo, una nueva criatura en Cristo, y entonces le pides que te bautice en el ESPÍRITU SANTO, para que seas LLENADO DEL ESPÍRITU DE CRISTO. Si no tienes el Espíritu de Cristo, no le perteneces a Él.

¡Si estás en Cristo eres NUEVO! Ya no eres del mundo nunca más, eres una persona diferente. No puedes evitar ser testigo de Jesús porque estás lleno del Espíritu de Dios y deseas hacer la voluntad de Dios! 

Un renacido hijo de Dios sigue la guía del Espíritu Santo. "Aquellos que están siendo guiados por el Espíritu de Dios, son hijos de Dios." Escuchan a Dios y hacen Su voluntad.

¿Has renacido? ¿O  has sido simplemente educado en la religión? No se trata de la educación, consiste en la REGENERACIÓN. ¿Has sido regenerado? ¿Eres NUEVO POR DENTRO? Pídele a Jesús tu NUEVO NACIMIENTO y Él te cambiará por dentro, Él TE HARÁ DE LA REALEZA. Te convertirá en hijo de Dios. Entonces OBEDÉCELE. Sigue la guía del Espíritu Santo que te dará HASTA el final. No sigas a ningún hombre, sigue a Jesucristo. 

¡ES necesario renacer para entrar en el Reino de los cielos! 

Que Jesús te bendiga.

Beauty for ashes


Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Have you ever felt so down, that you begin to ask yourself, 'What is the point of it all?' There are many things in this verse but the one that I want to mention today is the 'spirit of heaviness', better known by its bona fide name: 'Depression.'


It can settle on anyone given the right circumstances and none of us are immune to it. We all like to think that we have it together.  

Daniel prayed for the people and poured his heart to the Lord

Daniel 9:3-4 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes: 4 And I prayed unto the LORD my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;

The Lord is My Shepherd

 1The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

2He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

4Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

The Lord Jesus Christ wants us to lay the weight upon him, because he has overcome the world. John  16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. You don't have anything to lose in Jesus, because where he is, he cannot lose. Whatever you ask in his name according to his glory he will provide.

Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Matthew 11: 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

A yoke is a heavy wooden harness that fits over the shoulders of an ox or oxen. It is attached to a piece of equipment the oxen are to pull. A "heavy laden" animal has a big load to pull.  A "heavy laden" person may be burdened with (1)Sin (2)oppression and persecution, or (3) weariness in the search for God.

Jesus frees people from all these burdens. The rest Jesus promises is love, healing, and peace with God, not the end of all labor. A relationship with God changes meaningless toil into spiritual productivity and purpose.   

No matter the situation, if you're having one of those day's that has put a dent in your emotion. Don't let the wrath of anger effect your character of the glory of the Lord be effected.

Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Why are we living in the last day's ?


1st John 2:18, “Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.” 
  in the world who all deny that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. There are hundreds-of-millions of Buddhists and Hindus that also deny the Lord. Jews who follow Judaism deny that Jesus is the Christ. Over 1,000,000,000 Romans Catholics errantly think that devotion to Mary will get them into Heaven. It is tragic!

Jesus warned that the End Times would be once again as it was in Noah's time, when people only lived to enjoy the cares, riches and pleasures of this life (Matthew 24:37-39; Luke 8:14). Only 8 people survived the flood. I dare say that even one-percent of the world's population are truly born-again Christians (Matthew 7:13-14). Few people will enter into Heaven.

Many religious cults distort the Person, character and nature of Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul warned about false prophets who would introduce to us ANOTHER Jesus, ANOTHER Gospel, and ANOTHER spirit (2nd Corinthians 11:4). Galatians 1:9 proclaims a CURSE upon them all, for corrupting the Gospel. These are signs of the Last Days. Everywhere we turn nowadays, we are having false doctrines, false religions, false Christs, false Gospels and false Bibles introduced to us. Satan is working relentlessly to corrupt churches with New Age teachings, diminishing being born-again from a miracle of God (John 1:12) into a mere feeling, experience or commitment to serve God.

Just as God parted the Red Sea to save the Israelites from the wrath of Pharaoh and Egypt's armies; so is salvation only of the Lord. God parted the Red Sea. The Israelites had absolutely nothing to do with parting the sea. Their only requirement was to walk through, and they did, on dry ground. Likewise, God saves a sinner who repents toward God in faith to be forgiven through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.

This Scripture is NOT speaking about THE Antichrist, who is coming soon to rule the world as an evil thug dictator (2nd Thessalonians 1:1-10). Rather, the term antichrists (plural) refers to religious fakes (Modernists) and false prophets. A “Modernist” is someone who talks about spiritual matters, but is not a genuine born-again Christian. Some popular Modernists are: The Pope, Oprah Winfrey, John MacArthur, Carter Heyward, John Edward, Benny Hinn, Ellen G. White, Ron Hubbard, Joseph Smith, Charles Russell, Mary Baker Eddy, and thousands more. 1st John 2:19 teaches that many of them began in the Church... “They went out from us, but they were not of us.

2nd Timothy 3:5 describes these people as, “Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.” That “power” is the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ to him that believeth (Romans 1:16). To those who don't believe, it is worthless. Many of the Israelites who wandered in the Wilderness for 40-years, died and went to Hell in their sins, because they heard the Gospel; but it wasn't “mixed with faith in them that heard it (Hebrews 4:2).

Others add self-righteous works to their faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), which is no faith at all in the Lord (Romans 11:6). Dr. John MacArthur requires sinners to try really hard to stop sinning in order to be saved (which he wrongly defines as repentance). MacArthur has it all backwards. You get saved first, and then God makes the changes; You don't make the changes, and then God saves you. Ray Comfort, Kirk Cameron and John MacArthur wrongly teach that a person must REFORM as part of being REGENERATED by the Holy Spirit of God; but the Bible teaches that a person cannot REFORM until they've been REGENERATED.

2nd Corinthians 5:17 says that IF ANY MAN BE IN CHRIST he is a new creature. Notice that this is after-the-fact. A man cannot be a new creature until he is already in Christ. In other words, a changed life is the FRUIT of genuine repentance unto salvation; and not a part of the ROOT of saving-faith to be saved (Romans 4:5).

A sure sign according to the Bible of living in the LAST DAYS is the preponderance of false prophets, Christ-rejecters, and religious phonies in the churches. 2nd Timothy 3:1, “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.” The word “perilous” is the Greek chalepos and means, “hard to endure, difficult, dangerous; through the idea of losing strength.” We are certainly living in trying times of our Christian faith. 2nd Timothy 3:12 teaches that all those who live godly in Christ Jesus shall (not possibly or maybe, but shall) suffer persecution. This lost and dying sinful world hates Jesus, hates the Bible, hates Christianity and hates all genuine Christians (John 15:19). You can display anything that is Islamic, Buddhist or Jewish and no one cares; but if you dare display anything Christian, such as a manger at Christmas, all the hordes of Hell will come after you, and everyone has a heart-attack.

There have never been as many religious fakes in churches as today. There have never been as many false prophets as today. There have never been as many Christ-rejecters as today. There have never been as many false Bible as today. There have never been as many corrupted Gospel as today. All around the world, people are turning to a Luciferian type of one-size-fits-all religion, that puts forth the teaching that sincerity is all that matters, and that there are many paths to the light and reincarnation. These New Age philosophies are rooted in demonic Buddhist, Hindu and ancient Egyptian and Babylonian mysticism.

Whether it be the occultist Alice Ann Bailey (1880-1949), Pat Robertson's CBN which promotes New Age psychologists, or the Satanic Pope who says people with no Biblical faith can go to Heaven... New Age is the Luciferian religion of the End Times. Christ-rejecters, Gospel corrupters, Bible perverters, church-infiltrators, and Bible-deniers are everywhere today.

1st John 2:18 proclaims that we are living in the LAST DAYS. And the Bible tells us how we know this truth... because there are many antichrists in the world today. Never before have we seen so many people attacking the Bible, the precious name of Jesus, and Christianity. Every Hollywood movie blasphemes God by cursing in His holy name. Every Hollywood movie uses the precious name of “Jesus” as a curse word. The word “wicked” has been redefined by evil people to mean something good; thus eliminating one of the few words available to describe the awfulness of sin. The King James Bible mentions the word “wicked” 421 times in the Old Testament. Yet Hollywood mocks God, attacks the Bible, and commits a grave sin by misapplying the word “wicked.”

If Jesus didn't really exist, or was not truly the Son of God as the Bible teaches, then why would every nation on the face of the earth be so hateful against Him? If the Bible is not true, then why are so many of the world's leaders, music and movie producers, and Hollywood celebrities, hostile toward the cause of Christ and the Word of God? Christianity is unique! You can belong to any religion and people don't care; but born-again Christians are hated the world over. This is because all false religions are owned by Satan. 1st John 4:4, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.” It is Jesus Christ Who is within the believer (Romans 8:9). Satan is the god of this evil world (2nd Corinthians 4:4).

It is so obvious that we are living in the Last Days. 1st John 2:18 plainly states that antichrists would abound in the Last Days, and we see them everywhere today. From Christ-rejecting Hollywood celebrities, to lewd Country music singers, to degenerate Rock 'N' Roll singers, to criminal Federal Reserve Banksters, to rebellious feminists, to murdering abortionists, to lying evolutionists, to arrogant humanists, to foolish atheists, to the rotten lying newsmedia who mislead the public concerning the truth—they are all antichrists who are the enemies of God (James 4:4).

2nd Peter 3:9 teaches that the only reason the Lord hasn't returned yet is because He is waiting for people to repent. God is long-suffering and patient, not willing for any to perish. When the Gospel is no longer being preached because of Communist Police State oppression, perverted Bibles, corrupted churches and worldwide apostasy; then I think the Lord will return, because that is when the fewest people will be getting saved. There are more people against Jesus Christ today than ever before. Most of the people who claim the name of Jesus today are false prophets, following a works-based false gospel, which is exactly what Catholics follow. Manmade traditions are a road to Hell beneath.

“Even so, come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).

Who is God?: Determination of faith

Who is God?: Determination of faith: What will it take to drive your faith to the limit? We will be asking ourselves? Is there anything God can't do? does the Lord Chris...

Determination of faith


What will it take to drive your faith to the limit? We will be asking ourselves? Is there anything God can't do? does the Lord Christ, Jesus only provides for certain people only?

I John 5:14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:  

And what is the will of God?

Romans 12:1,2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Holiness is a must!

I Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

Don't trust in your flesh for confidence  

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.

Psalms 145:18 The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

 James 4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.

Ask a amiss

James 1:6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

 God has no prejudice

Act 10:34,35 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: 35 But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.

Be like Noah, a man that trusted in God, and keep his faith when God told Noah that a flood was coming.

Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.  

2 Corinthians 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight

The fear of the Lord

Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

If you do that which is written in the word of God. You will find that believing, excepting, trusting, and loving will provide your determination of faith. It does require a big bulldozer to move a mountain, but faith as small as a mustard seed. Jesus Christ made it easy to receiver power to make the impossible, possible.

Matthew 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Living in the will of God?


How many people in this world are truly living in the will of God? I image that there are many that are not true Christian, and they know it.

John 7:17 17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. 18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.  

Many people will know how to repent, but many will fall away from the truth, and few will enter in to heaven.

Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

When a person converts from darkness unto light for the glory of the Lord they hold that which is pleasing unto God, not man.

I Peter 4:16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Ephesians 4: 1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

We are here not to entertain man, but we are here to glorify God in the spirit. Because the spirit is greater than our flesh, it doesn't seek for the cares of the world, but the for the need of the glory of God. If we obey the spirit of God we will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

 I John 2:15 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.  

True faithful God fearing children of the Lord are persecuted all the time  

John 15:19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.

Psalms 44:21-22 Shall not God search this out? for he knoweth the secrets of the heart.22Yea, for thy sake are we killed all the day long; we are counted as sheep for the slaughter.

Don't be surprised if the world hates you, or doesn't treat you well. The Love, and glory of God lives in you, this is why they treat you differently.     

I John 3:13 Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.

I John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

I Peter 4: Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. 14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.

Christian don't take a vacation's on God. (We) as believers in Jesus Christ, are to live in holiness as God expects us to live.

I Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

How would you judge a church that is living in the will of God? If the name of the church is called "Church of Jesus Christ", let's just say If you would walk into this church and, you would see all matters of evil things, and things pertain to the cares of the world, what type of temple would you think it would be?  

I Corinthians 3:16-17 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

I John 2:15-16 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world

Are you ready to live the way Jesus Christ is please with? Lets clean up our temple which is our bodies. And let's start from the inside, and reflect the glory of God on the outside.

Delivered By The Lord


The Lord simply has done so much for us, words cannot describe.

Psalms 116:1-9

1I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.3The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.4Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.5Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.6The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.7Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.8For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.9I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.”

** We are to be thankful everyday, and to make sure that God gets all the praise and glory. He has done the impossible with all of His love for us. **

We were delivered by Jesus Christ through His precious blood.

Deliverance of:

1.   Death

2.   Tears and sorrow

And

3.   Instability

//////////////////////

A. Death

Romans 6:1-7

“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? 2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: 6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 7For he that is dead is freed from sin.”

 

Romans 6:22-23

22But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 23For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

 

**God has given a free passage of the way out of darkness and death. He is the key to our salvation and freedom from sin and death. He is the only way to get to heaven. Many have tried over time and many still fight to try another way in but it is impossible, and it always goes back to Jesus. Jesus proved that sin has chained us and leads us to the road of death and tormentation. But He has given another way out, and that was with the price of His life. **

 

B. Tears and Sorrow

Psalms 34:15-18

“The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.16The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.17The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.18The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”

** Jesus knows the sufferings of this world; He lived among us at one time. But He proved a solution that would gain us peace without conforming to this wicked world. Through the strength of His Father in Heaven. He gave a simple life manual for us all the live by. 1.) Confession of your sins 2.) Allowing the Lord to lead your life

3.) Abide in Him and Obey His commandments 4.) love and forgive your brethren.  We will truly receive the peace that we need by following these commandments.  And to start it off, he shows compassion unto those with the burdens that they have carried for so long (sins, struggles, life,etc). **

Matthew 11:28-30

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

 

** Such wonderful and simple instructions that lead to a happier life, that gives us hope knowing what we will receive in the end. **

 

Luke 16:19-25

“There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: 20And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, 21And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. 22And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; 23And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.”

 

C. Instability

**Without Christ , our ways are unstable and we don’t know where we are going. We don’t know whether we are coming or going. But Jesus is the light that we need to be brought out of darkness. He is the one that can give you hope where you need it the most. **

 

 

Ephesians 5:8

For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”

John 8:12

“Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

 

**Before knowing Jesus Christ, our roads were dark and uneasy. We didn’t know if we were coming or going. Feeling unsafe, unstable and unsure where the road would lead us. At times, sure you felt you were in control of your life, thinking you are the boss of what would come ahead. But not knowing satan was directing your path, leading you to where you would soon be lead to your death in eternal tormentation. But Jesus stepped right in and offered you something that will completely change your life. Giving you an ultimatum, that brings stability, joy, peace, strength and something that no one can give you freely: Salvation- to be freed from sin and darkness. And given the chance to be in true eternal paradise in the end. But remember, He gives you a choice, seeing that we have freewill. Will you make the right decision? As you get up and take Jesus’ hand you will walk upright on solid ground, and the light will be given to you, where before you couldn’t see where you were going, now you have clear vision. Then there are some that think that without Jesus, if they will eventually find another way, a light to the tunnel. Not knowing that deception will take them away forever, where you can't turn back, and not receive a second chance. (The Lord’s return). **

 

Psalm 119:105

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

 

**Never step back in the darkness; never step back where you couldn’t see where you were going. Jesus was the Word of God made flesh, and the word is a lamp unto our feet, a light unto our path to lead us where we need to go. In that, we know we are on solid foundation, safe and grounded in the Lord. The Word of God gives us understanding in the ways we need to be grounded to live a successful life with Him. It gives us instructions of what is right and what is wrong. Breaking down all excuses and giving light to all criticisms of the many in this world.**

 

Matthew 7:24-27

“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.”

Make you calling sure


II Peter 1:10

Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

Peter wants to rouse the complacent believers who have listened to the false teachers and believe that because salvation is not based on good works they can live as they want. If you truly belong to the Lord, he says, your hard work (diligence") will prove it. If you're not working for God, maybe you don't belong to him. If you are the Lord's and your hard work backs up your claim you will never be led astray by false teaching or glamorous sin.

II Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

The Lord will choose those that are willing to product fruits that will be useful to bring more servants to fill his vineyard of faithful believers. 

1 Corinthians 1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

The Lord is looking at your heart Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Ephesians 1:18 I ask that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you may know the hope of His calling, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints,

In the day when the Lord was looking for a leader for the people of Israel he was   not focusing on the outside of the person, but at the heart.

1 Samuel 16:7 But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.

As we live in this world we are servants in the flesh to labor with our hands on our jobs, but not to please man with the cares of the world and erase our true propose and reason in serving the Lord, make our calling sure.

Colossians 3:22,23  Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God:  23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;

Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

I Corinthian 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

If we are consistent in the work of the Lord we become unmovable in our faith with Christ, Jesus, and always feeling comfortable with our labor in the Lord.

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

 If you love the Lord with all your heart you will not let your labor in the Lord go dry.   

Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Remember, when you labor for the Lord you are not wasting your time, but earning your wages for the glory of God.

Labor in the Lord


Are you on the Godly time clock? Or are you stealing time from the Lord? For the wage of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23

How are you laboring for the Lord? In the Carnal life, or in the spiritual life. Remember the flesh was crucified to interrupt the sin of death. The choice was with Christ which is Spiritual not carnal.  

For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. Romans 7:14

In our life there is a great gap of void that must be filled with the Lord. This process of Laboring that the Lord expects is to be filled is spiritual and, Heavenly. Holiness is requirement for the purpose to Glorify the Lord. This will outweigh the carnal mind the fleshly desires.

Romans 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

Romans 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.                      

Understand the need for pleasing God. If we are on the time clock for Jesus, We should value ever minute we are laboring for the Lord, because. Matthew 6:33 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.   

Matthew 6:33  But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

When we labor for man on our job we say, we can’t wait to end our shift to go home, right? Remember the labor we do on this earth is temporary, and the labor for the Lord is a gift for life of Joy for eternally 

I Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
