πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

(5-20-22) 
 
Recording:
 
πŸ’₯  John 10:10  Jesus says: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  I Peter 5:8-9  Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devourWhom resist stedfast in the faith,

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯ 2 Timothy 1:7  God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯ Philippians 4:19  But my God shall supply all your need according to HIS riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Joshua 1:5   God says:   I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. 

πŸ’₯  Hebrews 13:5   Let your conversation (manner of life) be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for HE hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  2 Corinthians 10:5   Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ (The Word);

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  John 8:44  Jesus says ...   He (the devil) was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  2 Corinthians 6:14-18   

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

(But if you are married to an unbeliever and the unbeliever is content to dwell with you as you live as a Christian, allow that unbelieving mate to continue with you.  See 1 Corinthians 7:12-15)

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be MY people.

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you,

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be MY sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

Concerning homosexuals and lesbians:

πŸ’₯  Romans 1:24-28   
 
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 
 
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  2 John vv. 8-11   Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.

9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Matthew 5:30   And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Matthew 24:12-13    Jesus says:  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.  But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Romans 13:12-14  The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.  Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Romans 7:18  (Paul says:)   For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: 

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  2 Peter 3:13-14   Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

(This present earth will never be made righteousness but will grow worse and worse to the end.)

14 Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of HIM in peace, without spot, and blameless.


πŸ’₯  2 Timothy 3  

1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

5  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

(People will have the "appearance" of godliness, but they will not live by the scriptures by the Holy Spirit.)

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  2 Corinthians 10

 Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you:
But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be bold against some, which think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:

4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.


12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

(If you compare yourself with another person it can lead to covetousness.)


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯   Genesis 8:22   While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

(This world concerns itself with what they call "global warming."  But God tells us the truth in the Bible.)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Matthew 7:24-27  Jesus says:   Whosoever heareth these sayings of Mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 
 
And every one that heareth these sayings of Mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  John 14:6  Jesus says:  I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by ME.

(A person cannot come to God by Buddha or Muhammed.  Only by Jesus, The Word, can a person come to the only God who created the heavens and the earth.)

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  John 1:1-4  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2 The same was in the beginning with God.

3 All things were made by HIM (The Word); and without HIM was not any thing made that was made.

4 In HIM (The Word) was life; and the life was the light of men.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  John 6

33  For the bread of God is HE (The Word) which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

35 And Jesus said unto them, I (The Word) am the bread of life: he that cometh to ME shall never hunger; and he that believeth on ME shall never thirst.

48 I (The Word) am that bread of life.

51  (The Word) am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is MY flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink HIS blood, ye have no life in you.

54 Whoso eateth MY flesh, and drinketh MY blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

(We eat and drink The Word.)

55 For MY flesh is meat indeed, and MY blood is drink indeed.

56 He that eateth MY flesh, and drinketh MY blood, dwelleth in ME, and I in him.

57 As the living Father hath sent ME, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth ME, even he shall live by ME.

58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread (The Word) shall live for ever.


πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯   John 1:14   And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld HIS glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Isaiah 54:17    No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of Me, saith the Lord.  

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Matthew 28:20  Jesus says:  lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.  

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Philippians 4:19   My God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (THE WORD).

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  James 1:17   Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Matthew 16:13-18  When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but My Father which is in heaven.

And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build MY church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Peter was blessed because God revealed The Word to him. The Word revealed by God by HIS Spirit to us is the rock. The gates of hell will not prevail against that Word revealed to us by God.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯
 
 I Thessalonians 4:13-18   But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with HIM.


For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep.

For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:


Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

The apostle Peter tells us how to live and how to be found  "in HIM" when HE comes.

II Peter 3:10-14    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,  Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 

Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of Him in peace, without spot, and blameless.

The only way we can live continually "in peace, without spot, and blameless", is to pray over every issue that touches our lives this day and every day, one problem at a time.  And to be cleansed by God that day by hearing what God would bring to us in the trouble.

πŸ’₯πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

πŸ’₯  Hebrews 9:22   without shedding of blood there is no remission.

The only blood shed for me was the blood of Jesus.
