JESUS, GREETINGS, my Friend,

Many a times in our Christian walk there come moments in our lives where we face trials and oppositions that tend to make us lose hope. Remember, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for {HEBREWS 11:1}." We can't have faith without hope. Therefore, my friend, these are times when we need to focus our attention on what our ALMIGHTY CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED KING of Kings and LORD of Lords {REVELATION 19:16} can Accomplish for us, even in the valley of the shadow of death {PSALM 23:4} that we may be going through at a particular moment in life.

In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE, we see a time when the Sweet Psalmist of Israel King David, and his men, came home to Ziklag to find that the Amalekites had raided their cities and taken captive their wives Ahinoam and Abigail the widow of Nabal {1 SAMUEL 30:5}. However, when King David inquired of THE LORD "His God {1 SAMUEL 30:6}", The LORD Told him that he would "without fail recover all {1 SAMUEL 30:8}."

That, my friend is the Word for Today. When we place our hope and trust in CHRIST JESUS, all things become possible {SAINT MARK 10:27}. When we feel as if we've lost our joy or our peace, ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD IS MORE THAN ABLE TO Give these things back to us. Sometimes our losses in life can be a result of some sin in our lives. Other times, as with King David and Ziklag, these things happened to his men and him while they were doing the right thing. This, my friend, shows us that just because bad things happen to us, it is not always a result of our sin. We do have an enemy that comes to steal, kill, and destroy, however, our TRIUMPHANT CHRIST JESUS HAS COME TO GIVE us LIFE more ABUNDANTLY {SAINT JOHN 10:10}.

I can personally attest in my life, that many things that have occurred detrimental in my life have been a result of sin, however, THE GRACE OF Our LORD JESUS CHRIST Has so Blessed me to still be able to write these blogs. HALLELUJAH! When you feel as if you cannot go on, and wonder which way to turn, always remember that CHRIST JESUS ALONE Can go before you {ISAIAH 52:12}, to bring you out. The present distress, my friend, is not permanent. Remember, "weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning {PSALM 30:5}."

So, remember, my friend, GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD, HE WILL ANSWER you when you call. Never be afraid to call on ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST For HELP. HE WILL Answer, and remember all HIS Promises are "Yea", and we say the "Amen {2 CORINTHIANS 1:20}". Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}." "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}"

FAITH IT!

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. - HEBREWS 11:1

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. - HEBREWS 11:6

Praise THE LOVE OF Our Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS, my family in CHRIST JESUS,

My friend, when we come to the fork in the road of our lives where we need to make a decision. There comes a reasoning that can sometimes inhibit our decisions, if we don't look at things through our "eyes of faith". When, there must be a decision manufactured, we need to first pray and look to what our ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST, Our CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED {SAINT JOHN 19, SAINT JOHN 20} LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28}, Has ALREADY SPOKEN TO us in HIS ONLY WORD, our HOLY BIBLE.

(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. - ROMANS 4:17

My friend, if we delved deeper into our PRECIOUS HOLY BIBLE, it becomes apparent that everything ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST HAS DONE, is because of FAITH! When HE so LOVINGLY Made the Earth, HE SAID "Let there be...{GENESIS 1:1}." HE SPOKE WHAT HE WANTED TO SEE, CALLING those things that be not as though they were {ROMANS 4:17}. This, my friend, is exactly what we need to imitate as HIS dear children {EPHESIANS 5:1}, whenever we face a problem or situation that we need to see or affect change.

In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE TEXTS, we see where having faith in ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST is our confidence and assurance that we will have what we believe {HEBREWS 11:1}. The next verse of our Foundational HOLY WRIT TEXT States that "without faith it is impossible to please..." Him {HEBREWS 11:6a}. Therefore, when we come to HIS THRONE OF GRACE TO FIND MERCY TO HELP us us in our time of need {HEBREWS 4:16}", it becomes apparent as with SAINT MARK 11:22-25 that we must come confessing with our mouths and believing in our hearts, that ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST HAS ALREADY GRANTED our Petition or requests {PHILIPPIANS 4:6}.

So, my friend what are you placing your faith in today? Is it in our ALMIGHTY GOD, JEHOVAH-JIREH {Our Provider}, or on the seemingly bleakness of a situation? Let me assure you, my friend, that no longer how long it takes, put your complete and purposeful FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS! HE Has Already Given to each and every one of us "the measure of faith {ROMANS 12:3}." Now it is up to us to utilize it throughout our CHRIST-GLORIFYING Journey, in order that ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST Would Receive all the GLORY HE DESERVES, thereby MANY souls would come to the SAVING KNOWLEDGE OF HIS ABUNDANT GRACE {1 TIMOTHY 1:14}. Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}", "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}."

Your Expected End

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

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. - JEREMIAH 29:11

Praise THE LOVE Of Our Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS, my Friend,

JESUS IS SUCH A GOOD, GREAT, AND MIGHTY GOD! HE LITERALLY IS LOVE {1 JOHN 4:8, 16, SAINT JOHN 15:3}, MERCY {1 PETER 2:10}, AND FORGIVENESS {COLOSSIANS 1:14}! There is absolutely nothing out of HIS LOVING GRASP, and remember my friend that no one can snatch or pluck us out of HIS HAND {SAINT JOHN 10:28}! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy. - 1 PETER 2:10

This is the day the LORD hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it {PSALM 118:24}. Well, my friend, this particular blog post is one of great encouragement, and excitement, in that we all, as Christians go through different trials and tribulations throughout our lives, and many of us have been waiting for a long time for the waters to move {SAINT JOHN 5:4 - ARAMAIC BIBLE IN PLAIN ENGLISH}. However, the GOODNESS Of ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST makes us aware that there is an there is an expected end {JEREMIAH 29:11}.

This expected end, my friend gives me great delight in that all that we have gone through in our lives, is not for nought. JESUS ALWAYS makes an escape through every trial or temptation {1 CORINTHIANS 10:13}, and if we just hold on, HE WILL SEE us through. My friend, I understand that a lot of what we go through detrimental in our lives may be our fault. Yes, we have an adversary the devil who walks around as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour {1 PETER 5:8}, however, we also possess the Shield of Faith {EPHESIANS 6:16}, enabling us to successfully resist him every time.

When we have undergone tragedies, and discouraging elements in our lives, it can many a time wear us down to the point where we don't feel like getting up again. However, my friend, let's be reminded of the man laying on his bed at the Pool of Bethesda whom JESUS HEALED Commanding him to "get up" or "rise up" take up his bed and walk {SAINT JOHN 5:8}. This, my friend, is exactly what our PRECIOUS CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED LORD of Lords, and King of Kings {REVELATION 19:16} is Saying to us today.

Remember, NOTHING is too hard for our GOD to do {GENESIS 18:14, JEREMIAH 32:17, 27}. No matter how we've been knocked down, we can always get up, if we make the decision to place our trust in our PRECIOUS LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, RELYING on HIS STRENGTH TO HELP us {HABAKKUK 3:19}, and not solely our own. For, as the HOLY SCRIPTURE SAYS, without CHRIST, "we can do nothing {SAINT JOHN 15:5}."

So, remember, my friend, there's ALWAYS hope {LAMENTATIONS 3:21}. As long as we are in these bodies, we have hope of a brighter tomorrow, as we make the decision today to put our sinful past, and mistakes behind us, and carry on to the future ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD HAS SO LOVINGLY PURPOSED FOR our lives. Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}" "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}."

Waiting Well

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

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

Praise THE LOVE of our Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS, my friend,

HOLY SPIRIT, Please HELP me write a blog post that will stir the hearts of all who read this post, and myself, as well. In JESUS'S HOLY NAME. Amen.

Well, we're midway through this week, as the month of September 2018 is coming to a close. I pray everyone had a great month, as with me. Yes, there have been ups and downs this month, as with any month, but our PRECIOUS LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST IS FAITHFUL, and HE HAS SO LOVINGLY CARRIED us Through! HALLELUJAH!

With this in mind, we now come to the realization that along the trek of our Christian Walk there comes a time of waiting for our BLESSED LORD JESUS CHRIST To Move on our behalf. Let's face it, some of us have been waiting for a long time to see a change in certain adversarial circumstances in and around our lives. When people hear some of my testimony of CHRIST JESUS'S FAITHFULNESS {1 CORINTHIANS 10:13} AND GOODNESS {PSALM 23:6} in the area of my learning how to walk again, seeing how I haven't independently walked since 2003, underwent five spinal cord surgeries with 3 being major, being in mental institutions at the least 24 times since I was 10 years old with the 2-24 coming after 1997, being in nursing homes since 2014, overcoming drug and cigarette addictions, and many other sins and unpleasant circumstances, or happenings in my young life, they, as with me, have no choice other than to bow {ROMANS 14:11} and confess {ROMANS 10:13} that JESUS IS LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28}. HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. - 1 CORINTHIANS 10:13

So, the question that now arises must be, "how do we wait for Our PRECIOUS JEHOVAH GOD TO MOVE in our lives?" Well, from experience, and I haven't always gotten it right, is to focus on how far JESUS HAS BROUGHT us. I, in no way, or sense of the word, am perfect. No one is, but JESUS! However, as with the continual writings of these CHRIST-GLORIFYING Blog posts, it becomes apparent that GOD HAS BEEN MOVING IN my life even when times of despair have made it difficult to press on {PHILIPPIANS 3:13}. But thanks be to ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST, that our GOD, as with the song in my heart after one surgery to heal up a wound this past April, WON'T GIVE UP on us, therefore we are not to give up on HIM.

For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living. - ROMANS 14:9

Beloved, anything is possible with CHRIST JESUS {SAINT MARK 10:27}. As I heard Dr. Tony Evans ( http://tonyevans.org ) Preach one message, that, when our BELOVED CHRIST JESUS DIED ON GOOD FRIDAY {SAINT JOHN 19:30}, "IT DIDN'T LOOK GOOD." However, on that first RESURRECTION (EASTER) SUNDAY, THE MIRACULOUS POWER AND LOVE OF Our TRIUMPHANTLY-VICTORIOUS HEAVENLY FATHER MADE "all things new {REVELATION 21:5}", by the rising and reviving {ROMANS 14:9} our PRECIOUS KING OF Kings and LORD of Lords {REVELATION 19:16} to life again on the THIRD DAY {SAINT MATTHEW 12:40}! HALLELUJAH!

So, do you need a Miracle today, my friend? Certainly, I believe we all do in one aspect of our lives. Please don't give up. ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD HAS A PERFECT PLAN FOR Your life. When you wait expectantly, being patient, while continuing to honor our HEAVENLY FATHER AND OUR BLESSED SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, by moving forward, not letting slothfulness {PROVERBS 12:27, SAINT MATTHEW 25:26} enter into the equation, you will ALWAYS come out victorious, as CHRIST JESUS LEADS THE WAY unto the Victory HE HAS SO PURPOSELY PLANNED FOR our lives. Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}" "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}"

JESUS'S ALL-SUFFICIENCY

And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: - 2 CORINTHIANS 9:8

Praise THE LOVE Of Our Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS GREETINGS, my friend,

Sometimes in our lives we feel overwhelmed or overburdened and we don't know what to do or where to turn. Many of us have in the past sought comfort through varies delicacies, sports or recreational activities, and sadly many have sought comfort in very destructive activities such as drinking alcoholic beverages and experiencing with illicit drugs. I'm very privileged to thank JESUS CHRIST For So Graciously taking the first and the latter from me, personally, and it's been nearly 7 years since I had an alcoholic drink, drug, or cigarette, for that matter. Yes, my friend, JESUS IS Our FAITHFUL LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28}, and I am NOT going back to my former worldly ways, no matter what comes in or around my life. HALLELUJAH!

When we see others hurting, who have not yet come to the Saving Grace BY WAY of placing their faith in THE PRECIOUS DEATH AND RESURRECTION Of Our LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT MARK 15 AND 16}, it behooves us to want to lend a listening ear or a helping hand to let them know about the Comfort of our BELOVED HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURES OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST {ROMANS 15:4}. Let's face it, my friend. Even as Christians, we especially encounter difficult times, however, we know WHO our REFUGE and ROCK IS {PSALM 62:7}, our TRIUMPHANTLY-VICTORIOUS LORD AND GOD, JESUS CHRIST! Sadly, for the person who has yet to place their Eternal Trust in our BELOVED MASTER, they have no sure person to turn to in their times of need and despair.

In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE, we see our LORD AND GOD JEHOVAH Being our ALL-SUFFICIENT SAVIOR, able to cause us to abound in every good work {2 CORINTHIANS 9:8}. Because we can rely on THIS WONDERFUL COUNSELLOR, JESUS CHRIST {ISAIAH 9:6}, we have all we need when we come across the path of despair, fully knowing that our PRECIOUS SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, Has Already so Lovingly Provided unto us the way of "escape {1 CORINTHIANS 10:13}," concerning every fiery trial {1 PETER 4:12}, or adversarial circumstance we may be facing. Because JESUS FIGHTS our battles for us {EXODUS 14:14}, we have nothing to fear when our enemy rears his ugly head {1 CORINTHIANS 2:18}, attempting to veer us from the Faith.

So, my friend, trust our GOOD SHEPHERD, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 10:11}. HE, Alone, WILL Bring us out of trying times, reminding us that through HIM, no situation is hopeless. When we understand that no matter what our sin, HE WILL NEVER LEAVE OR FORSAKE us {HEBREWS 13:5}, we garner all the confidence we need in order that we'd become the able vessels of HIS, Fit or meet for the MASTER'S USE {2 TIMOTHY 2:21}, as we endeavor to, BY HIS Grace, abound unto every good work, showing forth HIS MATCHLESS LOVE To all of mankind. Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}." "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}.

A New Path

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, - PHILIPPIANS 3:13

Praise THE LOVE OF Our Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS, GREETINGS, my friend,

Well, HAPPY LORD'S DAY, my friend! It is the beginning of another week, and with any new beginning comes the opportunity to start again. We see this normally at the beginning of the New Year, with the setting of resolutions, or what I love to call "prayer requests", however, it would do us good to take inventory concerning where we are, from time to time, throughout the year in order that we'd have a CHRIST JESUS-Glorifying course of action showing forth some clarity to our Christian gait.

When we begin "A New Path" as our topic title suggests today, it becomes imperative that we'd place our past sins, iniquities, transgressions, mistakes, and frailties behind. This, my friend, is not always easy. Our enemy, the devil, works overtime to try to keep us from our the "desired haven" CHRIST JESUS HAS SO LOVINGLY Patterned for us.

With this in mind, the key component to our starting "a New Path" involves our forgiving others at times, but most-importantly forgiving ourselves. Because it can be difficult to forgive ourselves from all the turmoil of the past, some things created by ourselves {PSALM 107:20}, it may take awhile with the HELP OF THE BLESSED HOLY SPIRIT {SAINT JOHN 14:26}, to get us to the place where our BELOVED JESUS CHRIST wants us to be.

Let's face it, JESUS IS LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28, GENESIS 1:26, SAINT JOHN 1:1-5}! HE, Being our LORD, and GOOD SHEPHERD {SAINT JOHN 10:11} KNOWS all that it is going to entail in order that we'd learn from our mistakes and come forward to the place of maturity with HIS PRECIOUS DEATH AND RESURRECTION AS our FOUNDATION. For we have no other Foundation than that of CHRIST {1 CORINTHIANS 3:11}.

So, how about it, my friend. Ready for some early "Spring cleaning" in the several areas of your life that may require an overhaul? Let's face that truth here that our JESUS LOVES us, no matter what we have done. Nothing, absolutely nothing, can separate me from HIS LOVE {ROMANS 8:38-39}. When we honor HIM through Respect, Obedience, and coming to HIM for Help and Fellowship {1 JOHN 1:3}, HE WILL Honor us {PSALM 91:15, SAINT JOHN 12:26}, in turn, Ridding us of the stain of our past sins, and enveloping us with THE HELP OF HIS COUNTENANCE {PSALM 42:5}, ensuring that our past does not need to hinder our present or our future in HIM {JEREMIAH 29:11, PHILIPPIANS 3:13}. Amen? Amen! "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. {REVELATION 22:21}" "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen {1 JOHN 5:21}."

The MAN From Galilee

"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

And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you. SAINT MATTHEW - 28:7

Praise THE LOVE of Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS, GREETINGS, my Friend,

Praise JESUS CHRIST! "Hello," my friend! How art ye today!? - smile - I trust that you realize the Truth that ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST IS FOR you and not against you {}? HALLELUJAH! How has your week been? Mine, though rocky at times, has been exceptionally well, and today, being THE GOOD LORD'S SABBATH (Although we're under HIS BOUNTIFUL GRACE -), has verily been the best day of the week! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. - 1 JOHN 4:15

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for. The evidence of things not seen {HEBREWS 11:1}. For by it the elders obtained a good report {HEBREWS 11:2}. HALLELUJAH! It is essential as a Christian that we always use our faith. Our ONLY HOLY BOOK, THE HOLY BIBLE unequiovocally details that without faith it is impossible to please GOD {HEBREWS 11:6}. When we place our faithful trust in our PREEMINANT LORD AND GOD, JESUS CHRIST, we are showing forth to our SAID HOLY EVERLASTING FATHER {ISAIAH 9:6} That we Love HIM, for HE SAYETH PRIOR TO HIS TRIUMPHANT DEATH AND RESURRECTION That if you love me, keep my commands {SAINT JOHN 14:15}, and we know that HIS Commandments are not grievous or burdensome {1 JOHN 5:3}.

Today's Topic of focus belies the Truth of the MAN FROM Galiliee being our GREAT SAVIOR AND GOOD LORD AND GOD WHOSE MERCIES ENDURETH forever {PSALM 106:1}. When we understand WHO JESUS, IN TRUTH IS, our Eternal Focus Positions our Hope and Desire on HIS EVERLASTING LOVE {JEREMIAH 31:3}.

He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. - 1 JOHN 5:10

Let's face it folks, GOD IS LOVE {1 JOHN 4:8, 16}. This MAN From Galilee, THE LORD JESUS, IS not just the Son of God {}, HE IS ALMIGHTY GOD {GENESIS 1:26, SAINT JOHN 1:1-29, SAINT JOHN 20:28}, HIMSELF. HE'S ALWAYS BEEN OUR GOD, for we understand that HE Told those against HIM that "before Abraham was, I AM...{SAINT JOHN 8:58}." When we earnestly see that The MAN From Galilee is THE ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD THAT CREATED All Things, we come to HIM with a FEAR embodying our RESPECT AND HONOR Given by us to THE FATHER, THE SON JESUS CHRIST, AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT. HALLELUJAH!

In our Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE, we see the Beloved Angel of GOD at the Tomb of CHRIST'S RESURRECTION, Joseph of Arimethea's newly cut out of the Rock tomb {SAINT MATTHEW 27:60}, Commanding Mary and the women at the Tomb to go into Galilee and there they would see Him {SAINT MATTHEW 28:7}. This VICTORIOUSLY-TRIUMPHANT SCRIPTURE Gives us a Truth in which we need to take heed. That truth, my friend, is that when we are in the Place that ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST Has SO LOVINGLY Positioned our persons to be, we will look to HIM for all His Abundant Provision and HIS ETERNAL WILL Will Be Accomplished in our lives, as we plant the Seed of THE WORD OF GOD, bringing our sheaves (fellow believers in CHRIST JESUS) with us {PSALM 126:6} to The Kingdom of Heaven.

So, what ails you today, my friend? Remember that JESUS IS not just an AWESOME GOD, HE IS THE ONLY GOD! HE WILL Cuddle you as a dad holds his precious child. When we are going through difficult times, it becomes imperative that we look for and to The Man from Galilee, although HE is not far from any of us. Amen? Amen! "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. {REVELATION 22:21}." "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}"

Pure Religion

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. - JAMES 1:27

Praise THE LOVE of Lives, JESUS CHRIST!

JESUS, GREETINGS, my Friend,

How has your week been progressing, my friend? My week, though not without troubles, is going great! Through our CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED {SAINT JOHN 19:30, SAINT JOHN 20} KING of Kings and LORD of Lords {REVELATION 19:16} JESUS THE CHRIST, I've managed to do some of my school work, my mother bought and a brought me a new wheelchair the other day, even though by Faith in CHRIST JESUS, I won't need it much longer, and I have adequate shelter, clothing, and food care.

With this "food care" statement given me BY THE PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST, it also behooves us to see an acronym "F.aith O.vercomes O.bstacles D.oing C.HRIST'S A.ll sufficient, R.ighteousness E.mphatically. This, my friend, essentially means that we need to come back to, our, giving the masses the "Food Care" of the WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD, JESUS CHRIST, The HOLY BIBLE, knowing that we all need our physical nutrition, however, we need our Spiritual Sustenance all the more {1 PETER 2:2, 1 CORINTHIANS 3:2}.

In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE we see that the beloved Disciple James is admonishing us concerning, "Pure Religion," helping those in need. This, my friend, is the truest mannerism with regards to our showing forth our CHRIST-Like demeanor, in setting forth a table for all the impoverished and needy persons to dine from the great "wealth of Love" afforded our persons by our GRACIOUS LORD AND GOD, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 20:28}!

HALLELUJAH! Let's face it, when people see us, they don't always need to hear a Sermon, they need to see one through our CHRIST-Glorifying behavior. It is not enough for us to speak right things to the poor and downtrodden. We must also accomplish "right things" in order that we'd become "Christ's epistles {2 CORINTHIANS 3:3}", with the WORD OF ALMIGHTY JESUS our LOVING EVERLASTING FATHER {ISAIAH 9:6} BEING WRITTEN on our hearts.

So, let's make up our minds, my friend, showing the lost and those in the Faith, as well, that we serve a GOOD, AND MIGHTY GOD; THE LORD GOD JEHOVAH, HIS PRECIOUS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS CHRIST, AND THE PRECIOUS HOLY SPIRIT. When we humble ourselves through servitude, as JESUS, HIMSELF, while still being LORD OF ALL, Humbled Himself, and became obedient even to the death of the Cross {PHILIPPIANS 2:8}, we show forth a love and appreciation for our Savior, Master and Lord, and as HE ALWAYS DOES, HE Provides ALL that we need to live a life of godliness and contentment, in any endeavor we find ourselves in. Amen? Amen!

JESUS SAYS "Press On"

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

Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, {14} I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. - PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14

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

Along the road through our Christian life, we face many mistakes, tests, trials, and tribulations {EPHESIANS 3:13}. These marks of being called to be a disciple {SAINT MARK 8:34} of our PRECIOUS LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST are necessary to grow us up, in order that we'd become all that our BLESSED HEAVENLY FATHER, THROUGH HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 3:16}, Calls us unto.

With this in mind, it becomes necessary for us to strive upward, moving forward in any endeavor, in order that we don't fall back into sin and despair, making ourselves unprofitable in our Christian walk. My friend, the main way, I believe, for us to move ahead unto all that our BELOVED HEAVENLY FATHER HAS SO LOVINGLY Called us unto is through our putting our sinful past behind, thus utilizing each new day granted unto us by the "mercies of the God {ROMANS 12:1}", for the Glory of CHRIST JESUS, through our getting back into the race {ECCLESIASTES 9:11} with the HELP OF ALMIGHTY GOD, AND HIS PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST! HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH!

Another thing to understand is that, as I heard Dr. Charles Stanley preach of intouch Ministries ( HTTP://INTOUCH.ORG ), we should not waste anything that we are going through. In other words, as the HOLY BIBLE STATES is that, "...we know that all things work together for the good to them that love God to them who are the called according to his purpose {ROMANS 8:28}." When we understand that each day brings hope {LAMENTATIONS 3:22}, we can confidently affirm the Truth of GOD'S WORD That GOD is FAITHFUL {DEUTERONOMY 7:9}. HE WILL ALWAYS Bring us through.

So, my friend, let's make up our minds to "press on" towards the mark of the "High Calling" of GOD in CHRIST JESUS, endeavoring to become all that our GREAT GOD JEHOVAH, and HIS BELOVED SON JESUS CHRIST, HAS SO LOVINGLY PREDETERMINED FOR our lives. ALMIGHTY JESUS WILL KEEP us in the PALM OF HIS BEAUTIFUL "NAIL-PIERCED" Hand {SAINT JOHN 10:28}, in order that we'd be Shepherded {PSALM 23:1} BY HIS GRACE {REVELATION 22:21} attaining to the plan and purposes of HIS GOODNESS, making us apt to teach {2 TIMOTHY 2:24}, and able ministers {2 CORINTHIANS 3:6} of HIS GREAT GOSPEL MESSAGE. Amen? Amen! "Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}" The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. {REVELATION 22:21}."
