PRAISE our LORD AND GOD JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 20:28}!

JESUS GREETINGS Family,

     Well, as we come to the close of another wonderful month in the LORD JESUS, it does us good to remember all the things that our GOOD AND GREAT LORD GOD, JESUS CHRIST Has Accomplished in our lives.  Folks, although we are living in the end times according to THE HOLY BIBLE {2 TIMOTHY 3:1}, it does us well to understand that we are living in some of the greatest times for the Church!

     We as believers in The LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST understand that life is not always an easy trek.  We, my friend are on the Narrow Road where JESUS Described that there be few that find it {SAINT MATTHEW 7:14}.  Well, brethren (sisters are included in this term) we are the few that have found Eternal Life through the ONE WHO IS ETERNAL LIFE, The LORD JESUS CHRIST!  Because we continue on this Narrow Way, our adversary the devil {1 PETER 5:8}, who cannot stop the Plans of ALMIGHTY GOD for our lives, comes against us seeking to devour our faith {SAINT MARK 4:15}.  However, my friends, because of the Grace of ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD {HEBREWS 4:16}, he will NOT succeed!  HALLELUJAH!

     In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE TEXT, we see THE MASTER being praised for doing "all things well {SANT MARK 7:37}".  This gives all of us the determining factor to focus our attention on JESUS no matter what we are dealing with at the present moment of our lives.  JESUS, has made us fearfully and wonderfully {PSALM 139:14}.  Because of this, we have no need to worry when dire times come across the radar of our lives {SAINT MATTHEW 6:34 - HOLY BIBLE -  New International Version}.  ALMIGHTY GOD Has Promised to rebuild us {JEREMIAH 31:4}.  Therefore if you feel as if the burdens of today are too much to bear, remember our JESUS who does "all things well", is more than capable to rid us of any semblance of demonic attack, making us every whit whole {SAINT JOHN 7:23}.

     We see this evidence of wholeness in the pressing forth of the Woman with the issue of blood {SAINT MARK 5:24-25}.  Of course you know the truth of the matter is that although she had spent all she had on doctor's she was in no way better off {SAINT MARK 5:26}.  However, THE HOLY WORD Tells us that "she said within herself if only I may but touch the hem of His garment I shall be made well {SAINT MATTHEW 9:21}.  I heard one Prominent Pastor Preach one time concerning this with regards to the OLD TESTAMENT Writings of The Prophet Malachi saying that "...the Sun of righteousness will arise with healing in his wings {MALACHI 4:2}".  He went on to describe the Jewish Rabbi's clothes having fringes or strings on them compared to wings, and that this Woman with the issue believed that if she could, but reach out to touch the "wings" or fringes, she would be made whole.  I don't claim to know much about this, but the point I'm making here, is that the Woman used her faith, and she was made every whit whole, by the ONE WHO DOES "all things well".

     So, what are you facing today my friend.  Remember ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD SEES AND KNOWS all!  There is nothing or no one out of HIS GLORIOUS Reach or Touch!  Cry out to THE MASTER, JESUS CHRIST today {SAINT LUKE 19:40}!  HE WHO Made the ear does hear {PSALM 94:9}.  Likewise, HE WHO Made the eye, Does See {PSALM 94:9}.  You, my friend are NOT alone in what you are facing today!  JEHOVAH GOD, THROUGH THE PERSON OF JESUS CHRIST AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT, IS LIVING ON THE Inside of you, as we are HIS Children {COLOSSIANS 1:27}.  There is nothing too hard for ALMIGHTY JESUS our LORD AND GOD {GENESIS 18:14}.  HE WHO Made me well, WILL Do the same for you.  Amen?  Amen. "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}.

Praise JESUS CHRIST, I'm Healed!

JESUS Greetings, Family in CHRIST!

     Now I know some may be wondering why having normally started out previous blog  posts with two or three HOLY BIBLE Verses and then beginning this blog with 'Praise JESUS CHRIST', that at this time I've included the statement "I'm Healed!"  Well, let me explain a bit why I've shared this statement of exuberance.

     You see, many of our readers don't know my story of battling spiritual and mental health problems, as well as physical problems as I'm relearning my gait, in order that I may accomplish my CHRIST-GLORIFYING goal to walk any day now.  HALLELUJAH!  Well, as you can imagine, as I'm continuously, by GOD'S HOLY GRACE writing these blogs concerning the HEALING BALM OF THE WORD OF GOD,  JESUS CHRIST, Provided By Way OF HIS GREGARIOUSLY-TRIUMPHANT DEATH AND RESURRECTION unto the masses, the enemy of our souls attempts to stop me or get me in an attitude that does not enjoy the Riches of ALMIGHTY GOD'S Grace {EPHESIANS 1:7, 2:7} and Rest.  This is why I love the LORD JESUS CHRIST so much, because I don't always get it right, but I know, yea rather am known {GALATIANS 4:9}, by the ONE WHO HAS AND CONTINUES TO GET IT RIGHT EVERY TIME, and WHO Does "all things well {SAINT MARK 7:37}."

     In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE, we see a familiar Passage of the HOLY BIBLICAL TEXT where our JESUS CHRIST Implores us to come unto Him and attain unto His Rest {SAINT MATTHEW 11:28}.  This REST is not just a happenstance, It is also a Person, the Person of JESUS CHRIST!  Under the OLD COVENANT, we keep the SABBATH {JEREMIAH 17:22}, while under the NEW COVENANT, JESUS IS our REST.  Nothing we go through in life or have gone through has been a surprise to Almighty JEHOVAH GOD.  It is up to us to not let guilt and shame enter into our thought-life just because we've missed the mark today in thought, word, or deed. When we've sinned, ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD Has Already Made GREAT Provision for our attaining unto repentance, THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE ON CALVARY'S CROSS OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 19, AND 20}!  He also says if we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness {1 JOHN 1:9}.

     In order that we come to the Rest offered by CHRIST JESUS, we need to remember Who JESUS IS, and Who HE is not.  HE IS LOVE {SAINT JOHN 15:3, 1 JOHN 4:8, 16}.  Remember, "love is patient, love is kind... {1 CORINTHIANS 13:4}", just because we keep missing the mark in sin time after time, we need to remember that our SALVATION in CHRIST JESUS Alone is eternally secure.  No one can pluck us out of His Hands {SAINT JOHN 10:28}.  God is not a cruel-taskmaster waiting to accuse and pounce on us every time we make a mistake.  That is what the devil does.  He is the accuser of the brethren {REVELATION 12:10}.  Because we belong to CHRIST JESUS, we are in a battle every single day {EPHESIANS 6:12}, and the battle is won in our thoughts By the Holy Spirit of GOD, and the Word of God. We'd do well to perpetually renew our minds, by continuing to stay in the WORD OF GOD, THE HOLY BIBLE {EPHESIANS 4:23}, and when something comes up on our grid of thought that is not lined up with the WORD AND LOVE OF GOD, we need to cast down that imagination immediately {2 CORINTHIANS 10:5} and not give it a second thought.

     So, let me encourage you family to keep on keeping on.   The beloved Apostle SAINT Paul admonishes us By the PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST to forget those things which are behind and to press on toward the mark of the prize of the high calling in CHRIST JESUS {PHILIPPIANS 3:13}.  My friend let us rest in the LORD JESUS, and rid ourselves from all fear and discontent that we may be vessels of GOD unto honor {2 TIMOTHY 2:20}, fit for the MASTER'S Use {2 TIMOTHY 2:21}. "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}"

JESUS FAMILY, GREETINGS...

     Today is a great day!  Do you know what day this is, and why it is so great?  Well, our Foundational Scripture makes us aware of the exact reasoning behind this day's greatness; OUR LORD AND GOD JESUS CHRIST LIVES!  HALLELUJAH!

     When we see the title of this day's blog post, THE LORD JESUS HAS GIVEN us, we see and understand that "...that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us {ROMANS 8:18}.  Another HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE TELLS us that all things work together for the good of those who love God and are the called according to His purpose {ROMANS 8:28}.  The reason we have unspeakable joy is because JESUS Knows all about us, and still Chose to DIE FOR us, even the death of the CROSS {PHILIPPIANS 2:8}, and TO RESURRECT THE THIRD DAY {SAINT JOHN CHAPTERS 19 AND 20}.


     With this we understand that while we were yet sinners, CHRIST DIED FOR us {ROMANS 5:8}.  We may never understand the enormity of CHRIST'S LOVE and SUFFERING for us, but we are forever grateful that HE First made us a part of the human race, and saw something in us, that HE WOULD LOVE US SO MUCH TO LEAVE HEAVEN'S COMFORTS and COME TO a sinful land, in order to save us, sinful mankind.  That my faithful friend, is reason in and of itself to Reverence with GREAT JOY our GOD FOR THE RICHES OF THE GRACE OF HIS KINDNESS To us in CHRIST {EPHESIANS 2:7}.


     Remember, you can do all things through CHRIST WHICH STRENGTHENETH you {PHILIPPIANS 4:13}.  I know these are tough times we are living in.  Believe me, life is not easy, especially for us on the 'Narrow Way {SAINT MATTHEW 7:14}.  But be encouraged my friend, Our Elder SAINT Peter goes on to write By INSPIRATION OF THE HOLY GHOST {2 PETER 1:21},

Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: - 1 PETER 1:8

     So my friend, as my beloved Mommy says, "cheer up..." GOD IS FOR YOU AND JESUS HAS BLESSED YOU {DEUTERONOMY 12:7}, HE WILL NEVER LEAVE You NOR FORSAKE You {HEBREWS 13:5}.  So call on HIS HOLY NAME TODAY!  Remember all who call on the Name of the LORD JESUS Shall be saved {ROMANS 10:13}.  Put away sorrow and weeping {JEREMIAH 31:12}, for the LORD your GOD IS WITH you wherever you go {JOSHUA 1:9}.  "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}"

 And there ye shall eat before the LORD your God, and ye shall rejoice in all that ye put your hand unto, ye and your households, wherein the LORD thy God hath blessed thee. - DEUTERONOMY 12:7

Praise JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS,

     Alive?  What does it truly mean to be alive?  Some may haphazardly quip that having a pulse shows that you are alive, while detrimentally stating for the proverbial bump on the long so to speak that it's as if they don't have a pulse (smile).  However, according to Almighty JESUS CHRIST, what does it mean to truly be alive.

     In today's Foundational Scripture, we see that we have been made alive with CHRIST JESUS By Means of placing our faith in His Gentle DEATH, AND POWERFULLY-TRIUMPHANT THIRD DAY RESURRECTION {SAINT JOHN 19 AND 20}.  When we realize and understand that the very breath in us is JESUS GIVING US LIFE, we will more humbly come to the abode of Truth, and that ABODE is in Truth the PERSON of JESUS CHRIST WHO IS THE WAY, AND THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE {SAINT JOHN 14:6}.

     Our Key SCRIPTURE VERSE also denotes the fact that before CHRIST'S JESUS'S DEATH AND RESURRECTION, we were all dead in our transgressions {EPHESIANS 2:5}trespasses and sins {EPHESIANS 2:1}.  Because of the GRACE OF ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, we through faith and not our seemingly good works have been saved {EPHESIANS 2:8-9}.  This newfound life or existence is one that will never end.  When we are saved from hell and damnation {SAINT MARK 16:15-16}, we forever have the Seal of the PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT {EPHESIANS 4:30}, enabling us to live lives of freedom, totally oblivious to the way's of the world, and keenly centered on our practicing the lawful deeds of The Love of CHRIST that HIS PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT LIVING on the inside of us, as believers on CHRIST JESUS, Has Afforded us {1 CORINTHIANS 6:19}.

     The Holy Bible states that when our BLESSED POTENTATE {1 TIMOTHY 6:15}, CHRIST JESUS, Was Crucified that TREMENDOUS GOOD FRIDAY, we in fact were Crucified with HIM {GALATIANS 2:20}.  Likewise, as in HIS DEATH, we were also RISEN WITH HIM {COLOSSIANS 3:1}.  Because of our agreeing with ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD in receiving HIS SON, JESUS'S PASSION ON CALVARY'S CROSS, and our belief in HIS RESURRECTION, we are called the sons or children of ALMIGHTY GOD {SAINT JOHN 1:12}.  

     Let's face it.  ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD Has Given us all thing pertaining to life and godliness {2 PETER 1:3}.  We are alive now, more than any other time in our lives, simply because our GLORIOUS JESUS CHRIST is a PROGRESSIVE GOD!  HIS KINGDOM IS ALWAYS EXPANDING, and is an EVERLASTING KINGDOM {PSALM 145:13}. 

     We will understand the vastness of HIS GLORY, I believe, more and more as we enter Eternal Life {SAINT JOHN 3:15}, upon the exodus of our bodies and spirits from this earth {1 CORINTHIANS 15:51, 2 CORINTHIANS 5:8}.  However, our guaranteed by the HOLY GHOST {2 CORINTHIANS 5:5} Everlasting Life Era does not begin in Heaven, it begins with us, right now, on earth today, or when we first received CHRIST JESUS.  For we are told that we are ALREADY seated in the heavenly realms with CHRIST JESUS {EPHESIANS 2:6}, as well as having our citizenship ALREADY in Heaven where we eagerly await our Savior, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST {PHILIPPIANS 3:20}. "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}."

PRAISE JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS FAMILY,

     JESUS CHRIST TRUE VINE MINISTRIES Is on the verge of being a global network of Christian entrepreneurs, laymen, Ministers of the Gospel, and the like.  We strive to glorify ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST in all we think, say, or do.  Because of the GREAT SACRIFICE OF OUR GRACIOUS GOD in HIS DYING FOR our sin debt, and RESURRECTING THE THIRD DAY {SAINT JOHN 19 AND 20}, we have the privilege of Worshiping, Praising, and Lauding our SALVATION AND LORD each and every second of the day.  Of course this doesn't mean that we are no earthly good, yea rather on the contrary, it means that during our allotted time on GOD'S Green earth, we spend our time showing forth the GOODNESS OF OUR MAKER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!

     With this in center view, all of us as Christians long to serve the LORD GOD {EXODUS 23:25}, and please HIM in all our doings.  Let's face it.  No born again believer in CHRIST JESUS desires to sin.  We desire to delight ourselves in the LORD and He will give us the desires of our hearts {PSALM 37:4}.  However, we will displease GOD in these earthly tabernacles of flesh, but the key is to repent meaning to turn from them in confession to the FATHER {1 JOHN 1:9}, and going forward on our walk with CHRIST JESUS.

      Let's face it.  Our devotional HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE today is a very familiar portion of text.  It deals with our having the faith that pleases GOD, in order that we might see the Richness of the Glory of our SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST in all things.  When we first became saved, we did so ONLY by the Grace of CHRIST JESUS, and Faith in HIS PRECIOUS SACRIFICE AND SHED BLOOD ON CALVARY'S CROSS For Forgiveness {EPHESIANS 2:8-9}.  Confessing Him as LORD and believing that GOD THE FATHER RAISED HIM FROM THE Dead are the only prerequisite to being saved {ROMANS 10:9}.

      One thing of note in today's SCRIPTURAL TEXT is to understand that ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD Rewards those who diligently seek HIM.  When we seek HIM with the whole heart {PSALM 119:2}, HE WILL ALWAYS ALLOW HIMSELF TO BE FOUND of us, although he is not far from us {ACTS 17:27}.  We preach, teach, and actualize the "Word of Faith {ROMANS 10:8}."  This perpetual faith walk is what shows forth a loving disposition and attitude of trust and conviction that ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, JESUS THE SON, AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST; THE TRINITY IS EXACTLY AS our HOLY BIBLE DESCRIBES; LOVE {1 JOHN 4:8, 16}..

      GOD IS LOVE {1 JOHN 4:8, 16}.  JESUS IS LOVE {SAINT JOHN 19:30, 15:3}, JESUS IS GOD{GENESIS 1:26, SAINT JOHN 1:1-12, SAINT JOHN 20:28}.  Therefore when we believe and understand that these HOLY SCRIPTURE STATEMENTS about our LORD AND GOD, JESUS CHRIST ARE TRUE, we are pleasing to our HEAVENLY FATHER, THE HOLY GHOST, AND JESUS CHRIST all the while we are pursuing a deeper and more intimate relationship with ALMIGHTY GOD each and every second of the day.  "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}"

PRAISE THE LOVE Of Our Lives, JESUS THE CHRIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JESUS GREETINGS Family,

     Well, I pray that you all have been enjoying our CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED {SAINT JOHN 19, AND 20} KING of Kings and LORD of Lords {REVELATION 19:16}, JESUS CHRIST today as we harp on another week in the land of the living {ISAIAH 38:11}.  It brings me great pleasure to write these blog posts and see the increase of blog readers reading them everyday.  GOD, YOU ARE A GOOD GOD, Full of Mercy, and WHOSE WAYS ARE past finding out {PSALM 116:5, ROMANS 11:33}!

     With this said, one of the Titles of our PRECIOUS LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST IS "LOVE {SAINT JOHN 15:3, 1 JOHN 4:, 8, 16}".  Let's face it folks, there ha,s nor will there ever be, any greater display of LOVE than what the ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 1:14}, Showed all of humanity when HE SUFFERED HORRIBLY On Calvary's Hill some 2018 years ago {SAINT LUKE 23:33}, RESURRECTING THE THIRD DAY, after spending Three Days and Three Nights in the heart of the earth {SAINT MATTHEW 12:40}.  With this great sin DEBT that none in creation could ever have paid in order that we''d escape THE WRATH OF our ALMIGHTY AND LOVING HEAVENLY FATHER, it does us GOOD TO EXPRESS A GRATEFUL ATTITUDE ALL THROUGHOUT OUR DAYS OF THE ETERNAL HOPE WE NOW POSSESS IN CHRIST JESUS {HEBREWS 3:6}.

     In today's Foundational Scripture we see THE LOVE OF CHRIST BEING DEMONSTRATED  unto us, in that HE IS CALLING us to LOVE AS HE LOVES, unconditionally!  Loving and forgiving our enemies, and praying for those who despitefully use or persecute us {SAINT LUKE 6:27-28}, is EXACTLY what HE ACCOMPLISHED FOR all of mankind on and up unto CALVARY'S CROSS THAT WONDERFULLY-BEAUTIFUL GOOD FRIDAY {SAINT LUKE 23:34}.  Although I heard one Pastor, Dr. Tony Evans of the Urban Alternative preach that "it didn't look good on Friday", however, we know when that Blessed Angel Rolled Away That Resurrected Tomb's Stone {SAINT MATTHEW 28:2}, that First Day of the Week certainly looked MIGHTY GOOD, as our MIGHTY GOD, JESUS CHRIST, {ISAIAH 9:6} Exited the Tomb {SAINT MATTHEW 28:6}, Glorified; ALL GOD AND ALL MAN!  HALLELUJAH!  HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

      My friends I understand that it is not always easy to love.  Of course we do well to love ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, HIS BELOVED SON JESUS CHRIST, AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST, as well as our blessed loved ones and friends in the Body of Christ {EPHESIANS 4:12} that perpetually show love unto us, however when someone has done wrong to us or our children or loved ones, this ease of showing forth the CHRIST-GLORIFYING LOVE, can be rather difficult.  But my friends, that is exactly why we must "love on purpose".

     ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, HAS BEEN DEALING With me lately to smile more.  There is nothing more joyous than preaching the HOLY GOSPEL and seeing souls come to Faith in CHRIST JESUS {SAINT LUKE 15:7}.  However, as I heard one preacher quip, we need to tell our face to line up with our joy (smile).  Let's face it, the main thing that separates us from the world is our love walk.  Our HOLY BIBLE Decrees that this is how we know the children of GOD, and the children of the devil {1 JOHN 3:10); simply by our love walk.  

     When we walk in love, friends, we are more like our LOYAL JESUS CHRIST more than at any other time.  It is imperative that we focus ourselves on the LOVE OF CHRIST in order that we'd become more unified as The Body of Christ {PSALM 133}, bringing other potential sheep into the Fold {SAINT JOHN 21:17} of our GREAT SHEPHERD {HEBREWS 13:20}.  All the while we are placing a Hearty SMILE ON THE  COUNTENANCE OF our HEAVENLY FATHER {PSALM 42:5 - HOLY BIBLE - King James Version}. "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen." {1 JOHN 5:21}
