ONE DAY IS LIKE A THOUSAND TO GOD.

God promises long life,for those who obey Him.

“But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness…” {2 Peter 3:8-11}

“So teach us to number our days, That we may gain a heart of wisdom. Return, O Lord! How long? And have compassion on Your servants. Oh, satisfy us early with Your mercy, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days! Make us glad according to the days in which You have afflicted us, The years in which we have seen evil. Let Your work appear to Your servants, And Your glory to their children. And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, And establish the work of our hands for us; Yes, establish the work of our hands.” (Psalms 90:12‭-‬17 NKJV).

“Lord, make me to know my end, And what is the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, And my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah” (Psalms 39:4‭-‬5 NKJV).

“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.” (Psalms 91:14‭-‬16 NKJV).

“My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you.”
(Proverbs 3:1‭-‬2 NKJV).

“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.” (Ephesians 6:2‭-‬3 NKJV).

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

OUR ALMIGHTY, ALL POWERFUL GOD.

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last…..,” (Revelation 1:8‭, ‬11 NKJV)

+++Our God is Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent and is from everlasting to everlasting (without beginning and without end). He is beyond Awesome, beyond Description and beyond Comprehension. There is none like Him. He alone is God and besides Him (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) there is no other.
+++God argues with no one because He is always right.
+++God is the easiest Person to love because He is perfect in every way.
+++God is the easiest Person to trust because,He cannot lie (Titus 1:2).
+++Personally we should have no problems with God at all, (can I get a amen!).
+++When God has total control of our lives, nothing will ever get out of control.

“Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s. The Lord executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed.” (Psalms 103:1‭-‬6 NKJV).

“Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]– To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMPC]

+++Continuing to love and trust God with all your heart, as (Mark 12:30; Proverb 3:5-6) instructs us to do.
+++Blessed we are and blessed we will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

GOD KNOWS YOU.

GOD KNOWS YOUR DEEPEST ,DARKEST SECRETS. You can’t hide anything from God. You can fool people, but you can’t fool God.

“O Lord, you have searched me [thoroughly] and have known me. You know my downsitting and my uprising; You understand my thought afar off. [Matt. 9:4; John 2:24, 25.] You sift and search out my path and my lying down, and You are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue [still unuttered], but, behold, O Lord, You know it altogether. [Heb. 4:13.] You have beset me and shut me in–behind and before, and You have laid Your hand upon me. Your [infinite] knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high above me, I cannot reach it. Where could I go from Your Spirit? Or where could I flee from Your presence? If I ascend up into heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol (the place of the dead), behold, You are there. [Rom. 11:33.]

If I take the wings of the morning or dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, Even there shall Your hand lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me. If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me and the night shall be [the only] light about me, Even the darkness hides nothing from You, but the night shines as the day; the darkness and the light are both alike to You. [Dan. 2:22.] For You did form my inward parts; You did knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well. My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery]. Your eyes saw my unformed substance, and in Your book all the days [of my life] were written before ever they took shape, when as yet there was none of them. How precious and weighty also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! [Ps. 40:5.]” (Psalm 139:1‭-‬17 AMPC).

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. [Exod. 33:12; Isa. 49:1, 5; Rom. 8:29.]
(Jeremiah 1:5 AMPC).

“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.” (Jeremiah 17:9‭-‬10 NKJV).

“So He said to them, “Are you thus without understanding also? Do you not perceive that whatever enters a man from outside can not defile him because it does not enter his heart but his stomach and is eliminated, thus purifying all foods?” And He said, “What comes out of a man that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man.” (Mark 7:18‭-‬23 NKJV). GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE SEES ,AND KNOWS.

“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ” (Revelation 3:15‭-‬22 NKJV).

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

DIVINE BLESSINGS

“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.” (Deuteronomy 8:18 NKJV).

“This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (Joshua 1:8‭-‬9 NKJV).

“The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it.” (Proverbs 10:22 NKJV).

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things, the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. BUT SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” (Matthew 6:31‭-‬34 NKJV).

“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, AS HIS DIVINE POWER HAS GIVEN TO US ALL THINGS THAT PERTAIN TO LIFE AND GODLINESS, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” (II Peter 1:2‭-‬11 NKJV).

“And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 NKJV).

“Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]– To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMPC].

THE WORD WORKS

HOW GOD’S WORD WORK IN US .
+The Word of God is Spiritual Food for our souls and spirits.
+This is why God said in Matthew 4:4, Luke 4:4 and Deuteronomy 8:3, that man shall not live by bread (natural foods) alone but by EVERY WORD that proceeds from the Mouth of GOD.
+As natural foods have benefits and nutrients for our bodies, and so does the Word of God has Spiritual Benefits, Nutrients, Sustenances and Nourishments for our spirits and souls and our bodies.
+Not eating the right and proper natural foods for our bodies on a consistent basis deprives our bodies of the nutrients and the sustainability of good health.
+We need a constant intake of the Unadulterated and Incorruptible Word of God to obtain, sustain and maintain a good Spiritual Health in (Spiritual Growth, Development, and Maturation in the Lord, in the Spirit and in the Word of God). Amen!


Hebrews 4:12 states:
For the word of God is LIVING and POWERFUL, and SHARPER than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
+When we study and meditate on the Word of God, and purpose to live by every Word of God from our hearts in Love, Truth, Holiness, Righteousness and Faith we will experience the LIFE and POWER that is in the Word of God.
+The Word of God and the Holy Spirit in us establishes us in the Personality and Character of God, which is His Image and Likeness.
+And also, we will experience the power and life that is in the Word of God. Hallelujah!


However, John 17:17 says to,
Sanctify them by Your Truth. YOUR WORD IS TRUTH.
+The Word of God is the Absolute Truth. There is no greater Truth than God’s Word.
+When we have a steady intake of the Word of God which is the Word of Truth we become what the Word is, and reap all the benefits of God’s Awesome Word.
+When we become men and women of Truth, we will always Think the Truth, Speak the Truth, Do all things according to the Truth.
+We live God’s Kind of Life in the Conviction of the Truth (God’s Word), and we do so uncompromisingly for the Glory of our Heavenly Father and Christ our Lord. Hallelujah!
2 Corinthians 13:8 KJVS reminds of this fact:
For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.


In Psalm 119:105, David puts it this way :
Your WORD God is a LAMP unto my feet, and a LIGHT unto my path.
+The Word of God in us is a LAMP and LIGHT that helps us to see stumbling blockings in the pathway of life.
+The LAMP and LIGHT of God’s Word illuminates the straight and narrow path for us. That’s in this dark and crooked world.
1 John 1:7 says this ; But if we walk in the LIGHT, as he is in the LIGHT, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.
+To walk in God’s Light is to walk in His Word in Love, Truth, Holiness, Righteousness and Faith as Christ Jesus our Lord did while He was on Earth.
+In God’s Light, we have authority, power, and clarity in all things. Hallelujah!


Listen to what King David said in Psalm 119:11. ” Your Word we have hidden in our hearts, that we might not sin against You.”
One of my favorites is Romans 12:2 KJVS :
And we are not conformed to this world, but we are transformed by the renewing of our minds (with the Word of God and the Spirit of God), that we may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
+As we study the Word of God, the Holy Spirit simultaneously works the Word in our minds (souls) and hearts (spirits).
+This is how the Word of God is hidden in our hearts, and from our hearts, the Word gets mixed with Love, Truth, Holiness, Righteousness, and Faith.
+And this is the beginning of how the Word keeps us from sinning against God.
Hallelujahs to Jesus!

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling or falling into sin, and to present you unblemished [blameless and faultless] in the presence of His glory with triumphant joy and unspeakable delight, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, before all time and now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMP].

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our FAITH, TRUST, AND CONFIDENCE in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!!!

BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU THINK,AND SAY.

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
(Matthew 12:35‭-‬37 NKJV)

“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.”
(II Corinthians 10:4‭-‬6 NKJV)

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.” (Proverbs 18:21 NKJV).

“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”
(Ephesians 4:29‭-‬32 NKJV).

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.” (Philippians 4:8‭-‬9 NKJV).

Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]– To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMPC].

DO YOU LOVE GOD ?

How Much Do We Really Love the Lord our God?

“..and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul (life), and with all your mind (thought, understanding), and with all your strength.’ (Mark 12:30 AMP).


In John 14:23, Jesus answered and said unto him, IF A MAN LOVE ME, HE WILL KEEP MY WORDS: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
•To KEEP the sayings of Jesus is to obey the teachings of Jesus.
•To obey the teachings of Jesus, we must know the teachings of Jesus.
•To know the teachings of Jesus, we have to study the teachings of Jesus.
•If you do not study the teachings of Jesus, you will not know the teachings of Jesus.

How then will you be able to keep the Words of Jesus and show your love to Him and show your love for Him?
•Let us do all that we need to do for the love of Jesus, and be mindful that we need to love Him by keeping His sayings.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:1‭-‬2 NKJV).

“Now to Him Who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling, and to present [you] unblemished (blameless and faultless) before the presence of His glory in triumphant joy and exultation [with unspeakable, ecstatic delight]– To the one only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory (splendor), majesty, might and dominion, and power and authority, before all time and now and forever (unto all the ages of eternity). Amen (so be it).” [Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMPC]. +++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the Glory. Amen!

Last minute note .To all bishops, pastors, clergy, teachers, etc. This is your message from Jesus:

“So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.” He said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Tend My sheep.” He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.”
[John 21:15‭-‬17 NKJV].

BLESSED THROUGH RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS.

•You are the blessed of the Lord. All your needs and desires are abundantly and unlimtedly supplied with the inexhaustible provisions and riches of God in Christ Jesus.

“And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 NKJV).

“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” (II Peter 1:2‭-‬4 NKJV).


•In your relationship with Christ you are loved, thought of, cared for, prayed for and you are protected. In John Ch-17 and Romans 8:26, 27 & 34 Jesus and the Holy Spirit are still praying for us.

“Blessed and worthy of praise be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms in Christ, just as [in His love] He chose us in Christ [actually selected us for Himself as His own] before the foundation of the world, so that we would be holy [that is, consecrated, set apart for Him, purpose-driven] and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined and lovingly planned for us to be adopted to Himself as [His own] children through Jesus Christ, in accordance with the kind intention and good pleasure of His will— to the praise of His glorious grace and favor, which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved [His Son, Jesus Christ].

In Him we have redemption [that is, our deliverance and salvation] through His blood, [which paid the penalty for our sin and resulted in] the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace which He lavished on us. In all wisdom and understanding [with practical insight] He made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, with regard to the fulfillment of the times [that is, the end of history, the climax of the ages]—to bring all things together in Christ, [both] things in the heavens and things on the earth. In Him also we have received an inheritance [a destiny—we were claimed by God as His own], having been predestined (chosen, appointed beforehand) according to the purpose of Him who works everything in agreement with the counsel and design of His will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ [who first put our confidence in Him as our Lord and Savior] would exist to the praise of His glory.

In Him, you also, when you heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation, and [as a result] believed in Him, were stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit [the One promised by Christ] as owned and protected [by God]. The Spirit is the guarantee [the first installment, the pledge, a foretaste] of our inheritance until the redemption of God’s own [purchased] possession [His believers], to the praise of His glory.” (Ephesians 1:3‭-‬14 AMP).


•Allow the peace of God to rule your heart, His wisdom to rule your mind and know that our God is also our source of comfort, Joy and strength.
Numbers 6:24-26
The LORD bless you, and keep you:
The LORD make his face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling or falling into sin, and to present you unblemished [blameless and faultless] in the presence of His glory with triumphant joy and unspeakable delight, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, before all time and now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 AMP]


+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!

GOD STRONG

We are God-Strong,because 1 John 4:17 tells us that becausee as He is, so are we in this world.
Then Psalm 27:1 reminds us that:
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the STRENGTH of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
STRENGTH: Refuge, Fortified Place, Stronghold, Defence; to be Supernaturally Strong in all areas of life.
+The Lord is the STRENGTH of our lives. This means the Lord is our Refuge, our Fortified Place, our Stronghold, and our Defense.
+The Lord is also our Supernatural STRENGTH in every area of our lives.
+Our God who is Omnipotent, who possesses the sum total of all Unlimited and Inexhaustible Power is the STRENGTH of our lives.
+Therefore In all things and at all times we are God-Strong because God is the STRENGTH of our lives Hallelujah!

What we think, believe and speak has a lot to do with the conditions of our lives.
Proverb 23:7
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he…
+Whatsoever we say and believe, good or bad, positive or negative can have an impact on our lives. This references Mark 11:23.
Proverbs 18:21 KJVS
Death and life are in the power of the tongue…
+To Doubt and to speak doubt into our own situation is to prevent our situation from getting any better, and to prevent God from Divinely Intervening.
+To believe and trust in God makes our situation change for the better.
+All things are possible by God and all things are possible to them that believe.
+God will always responds and Divinely Intervene in the lives of those who put their Trust, Faith and Confidence in Him.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV.
