YOU HAVEN’T  HEARD  

​To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to Him? Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? It  is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in. He brings the princes to nothing; He makes the judges of the earth useless. Scarcely shall they be planted, Scarcely shall they be sown, Scarcely shall their stock take root in the earth, When He will also blow on them, And they will wither, And the whirlwind will take them away like stubble. “To whom then will you liken Me, Or to  whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing. Why do you say, O Jacob, And speak, O Israel: “My way is hidden from the Lord , And my just claim is passed over by my God”? Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord , The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak, And to those  who  have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.{Isaiah 40:18‭, ‬21‭-‬31}

The Invisibility of God

-Has it ever occurred to you that God is Invisible. 

1Timothy 1:17 

Now unto the King Eternal, Immortal, INVISIBLY, the only Wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen. 

-Jesus as God has the supernatural ability to be visible or invisible. 

John 4:24 

God is a Spirit…

-God as a Spirit (the Holy Spirit), has the supernatural ability to reveal Himself and also to make Himself Invisible.  

-Many times we look for Jesus to physical appear in our situations and circumstances and He can, but for the most part He remains invisible while He is with us. 

-Stay encouraged and know that even though you don’t physically see the Lord. He is still with you but invisible. 

-He honors His Word. He said in Hebrews 13:5 I’ll never leave you nor forsake you. 

+Our God is Omnipresent (everywhere present), Hallelujahs to Him!

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

PEACE

​How is your Peace?

The Peace of God in our hearts and minds. 

PEACE: quietness with rest, calm and tranquility. 

Philippians 4:7 

And the PEACE of God, which passes all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. 

John 14:27 Jesus said:

PEACE I leave with you, my PEACE I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your  heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 

-The peace of God in our lives keeps us from WORRIES, and keeps us from being TROUBLED, and also keeps us from FEARS. 

-Do not allow yourself to be agitated and disturbed. 

-Do not allow yourself to be fearful, and unsettled in any way. 

-Settle and rest yourself in His PEACE. 

Isaiah 9:6

…He is our Prince of PEACE.  

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust and confidence in Him. 

•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

ARE YOU READY

Oh what a glorious time when my King of Kings return;
Knowing that when everything is over I will be heaven bound.
At the twinkling of an eye I will change.
And also will be given a Heavenly name.
Caught up to meet Him in the air;
As an immortal who will shed not a tear.
No more sorrows, no more pain;
No more sickness , disease or shame.
Walking on the streets of gold.
Just like the story told from old.
Singing, worshiping and praising our King of kings;
For all the joy to me He brings.
Oh Lord how happy i will be;
Knowing that on earth I lived my life for Thee.
Surrounded by angels all in white;
No darkness, no night only heavenly daylight.
I will be with my Father for eternity.
Because that’s the life He promised me.
I look forward for the good life I will be living.
And to spend time with my eternal Father Who all my love I will be giving.
LISTEN:
But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words.
{ I Thessalonians 4:13-18 }

FINALLY :
Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed— in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in victory.” “O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?” The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.
[ I Corinthians 15:51-58 ]

Don’t swallow the pill of bitterness

If you live your life filled with anger, hate and bitterness, how can you expect to feel love,says Tim Burnell.
Bitterness,is a poison from Satan,that kills you slowly or quickly,depending on how much you swallow.
Therefore,when you taste bitterness don’t swallow. Instead, “O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him”,according to Psalms 34:8.
The Prophet Jeremiah said,
“Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name, O Lord God of hosts”,
{Jeremiah 15:16}.

God never gives us bitterness, and that’s a fact because, the Bible said so :
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s, [Psalms 103:5].
Therefore, Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you,{Ephesians 4:31-32 }.
Bitterness starts as a root and will grow daily if you don’t uproot it before it defiles the body,the Bible says, “Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;[Hebrews 12:15 }].
Don’t allow it to ruin you,but
“As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby: If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious,1 Peter 2:2-3.
Listen, the root of bitterness needs to be cast out immediately, because there is freedom in ,and through Christ. So it’s time to get better,instead of bitter.
But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.[James 3:14-15].
Do you want to taste God’s goodness, instead of the devil’s bitterness, just go to the top of this blog,click unto the salvation page, and get started,then allow the Holy Spirit to lead and direct you for the rest of your life.

YOU ARE CHOSEN

“For many are called, but few are chosen.” {Matthew 22:14 }. Everyone   loves  to be chosen,whether  it be for an award,a job,or marriage , regardless  of what it is you will be excited .  Well how does  it feel to be chosen  by God?  You should  be ecstatic , thrilled , overjoyed , all of the above  and more. well you should  be , because  God said,

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy” {I Peter 2:9‭-‬10}.

Jesus  said,”You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you” {John 15:16}.

Therefore , because  you’re  chosen , know  this:

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can  be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It  is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It  is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.[Romans 8:31‭-‬39]

REMEMBER  

So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen.”(Matthew 20:16 ). Now the question  is ? Are you chosen , by God or man.  

when you are  chosen , you’re  called to preach  like Paul said , “But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who  were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus” 《Galatians 1:15‭-‬17》.

“Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share with me in the sufferings for the gospel according to the power of God, who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began, but has now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel, to which I was appointed a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles. For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day”, [2 Timothy 1:8‭-‬12 ]

TROUBLED but not WORRIED

HEAVENS delights will by far outweigh earths difficulties.
“For I consider 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]

YES:
We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed— always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So then death is working in us, but life in you. And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, “I believed and therefore I spoke,” we also believe and therefore speak, knowing that He who raised up the Lord Jesus will also raise us up with Jesus, and will present us with you. For all things are for your sakes, that grace, having spread through the many, may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God. Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.{2 Corinthians 4:8-18}

JESUS WARNED,and CONSOLE US:
These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”{John 16:33}

GOD’S ANSWER:
Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.(2 Corinthians 12:8-10).

The solution:
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.{James 1:2-4 }

REMEMBER:
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
[Romans 8:1, 5-8 ]

FINALLY:
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[Romans 8:35-39 ]
