PRAISE JESUS CHRIST!
For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son; That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. {17} For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. - SAINT JOHN 3:16-17
They will come and shout for joy on the heights of Zion; they will rejoice in the bounty of the LORD-- the grain, the new wine and the olive oil, the young of the flocks and herds. They will be like a well-watered garden, and they will sorrow no more. - JEREMIAH 31:12 - HOLY BIBLE - New International Version - http://BIBLEHUB.com
JESUS GREETINGS Friends,
In our last post, we discussed that JESUS does not want any to "sorrow anymore" with regards to not having the necessities for our living a CHRIST-GLORIFYING, GOD THE FATHER-CENTERED Life. Without having our daily Spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical needs met, we cannot have the proper balance that ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD DESIRES FOR us to possess {PROVERBS 11:1}.
Let's face it, GOD IS LOVE {SAINT JOHN 3:16, 1 JOHN 4:8, 16 - AND THE ENTIRE HOLY BIBLE}. When we show forth the LOVE OF CHRIST JESUS in our hearts towards a lost and hurting world, we are more like CHRIST JESUS than I believe going to Worship Services weekly to fellowship amongst the fellow Saints of ALMIGHTY GOD. Now please don't misunderstand me. We are COMMANDED to not forsake the assembling of the brethren as the manner of some is {HEBREWS 10:25}.
However, when we are fellowshipping With the SON OF GOD, JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER, and the Saints of GOD {1 JOHN 1:1-3}, ultimately it is to focus our attentions, once having left the four walls of our Church's Edifice, in going into ALL the world and preach the Gospel to every creature {SAINT MARK 16:15}. We found out in the last Blog post, Given to us by the Precious HOLY SPIRIT, that when we Give of our resources for the betterment of society, and ultimately for the Salvation of Souls through the ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER {SAINT JOHN 14:6}, Faith in the GOSPEL of JESUS CHRIST'S TRIUMPHANT DEATH, AND THIRD DAY RESURRECTION, we are pleasing to ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, and as We stated earlier showing forth the Love of CHRISt to a lost and hurting world. So where does that bring us to today?
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. - ISAIAH 40:31
As with yesterday's Foundational Scripture, we see the beloved Prophet Jeremiah hearing from GOD ALMIGHTY, making the people aware that a time will come when they will hunger no more. Of course The HOLY BIBLE also Speaks upon a time where there will be a famine of the WORD OF GOD {AMOS 8:11}. This famine would cause men, I believe to further hunger for the things of JESUS CHRIST garnering a hope that can ONLY come from a relationship with Our HEAVENLY FATHER ADONAI Through Faith in The SHED BLOOD and The DEATH and BURIAL Of Our LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST!
This is an awesome Truth, for we indeed need to always hunger and thirst for JEHOVAH and HIS PRECIOUS SON JESUS CHRIST to speak to us. However, when sin has corrupted our lives, it becomes difficult to hear from the LORD JESUS CHRIST, until we confess it, and HE PROMISES TO BE FAITHFUL AND JUST TO CLEANSE US FROM all unrighteousness {1 JOHN 1:9}.
With this in mind I also want to talk about the time that is coming when we are to "sorrow no more." Although the Prophet Jeremiah, I'm sure upon Writing This HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRED Dictation was looking forward to the GREAT and Notable DAY, WHEN JEHOVAH GOD WOULD SEND HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS CHRIST, TO SUFFER THE WRATH OF GOD ON HIMSELF, In order that We who put our Faith in HIS PRECIOUS DEATH, AND RESURRECTION might be Saved {SAINT JOHN 3:16-17}, I believe we in this day can be rid of all sorrow as we delve into the depths of the ETERNAL LOVE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, Enabling us to see things from a HEAVENLY PERSPECTIVE as opposed to watching things happening in our everyday lives on this Mercy-Filled Earth {PSALM 33:5}.
In simpler terms, when we come to know who we are in CHRIST JESUS, as born-again believers of The WORD OF GOD, JESUS, AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT {SAINT JOHN 3:1-7}, we will in turn look to THE FATHER in times in this trek of life that can have the potential of bringing forth sorrow, depression, or some form of misery into our lives. Now please don't get me wrong. I believe that this is not always the easy thing to do with regards to not experiencing sorrow when a tragedy occurs. We all are human beings. However, for the born-again believer in CHRIST JESUS, we have been given a "hope that maketh not ashamed {ROMANS 5:5}". This Person of HOPE, JESUS CHRIST, Guarantees that when we are in the "Fire" HE WILL BE THERE as evidenced in Daniel with Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah {DANIEL 3:25}. Because we know that CHRIST is ALWAYS with us in any storm, speaking to us with HIS STILL SMALL VOICE {1 KINGS 19:12}, "Peace be still {SAINT MARK 4:39}", we have the ability to lessen any potential "sorrow" that the devil would try to throw our way. However, JESUS HAS DEFEATED -DESTROYED - all the works of the devil {1 JOHN 3:8}, when HE DIED ON THE CROSS AND RESURRECTED THE THIRD DAY {SAINT JOHN 19, SAINT JOHN 20}.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. - PHILIPPIANS 4:6
Therefore my friend, there is nothing to "sorrow" over or worry about {PHILIPPIANS 4:6}. We who have made JESUS our LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28} Have Eternal Life With ALMIGHTY GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT {SAINT JOHN 3:15}. For the non-believer, there is something very much to worry about, damnation in the eternal "lake of fire" "prepared for the devil and his angels {SAINT MATTHEW 25:31}." But as the WORD of GOD says, "we are persuaded better things of you {HEBREWS 6:9}." "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}
