CHRIST IS ALL
Wednesday, April 27th, 2011Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its
practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in
knowledge in the image of its Creator. Here there is no Greek or Jew,
circumcised or uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but
Christ is all, and is in all.
(Colossians 3.9-11).

THE SPIRIT OF LIFE
Saturday, March 19th, 2011Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those
who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus
the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death.

UNIT
Sunday, March 13th, 2011The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though
all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.
For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-whether Jews
or Greeks, slave or free- and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
(I. Corinthians 12. 12&13).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
FREE
Tuesday, August 31st, 2010But thank God, though you were once slaves of sin,
you have become obedient with all your heart to
the standard of teaching in which you were instructed
and to which you were committed.
And having been set free from sin, you have become the
servants of righteousness.
(Romans 6.17 & 18).

OF THIS

THE FATHER OF ALL LIGHT
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010Do not be misled, my beloved brethren.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is
from above; it comes down from the Father
of all light, in the Whom there can be no
variation or shadow cast by His turning.
And it was of His own free will that He brought
us forth as sons by His Word of Truth, so that
we should be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.
(James 1.17 & 18).

NOW
Monday, February 1st, 2010NOW
Due to the mercy shown us by God in Christ Jesus, the right relationship between God and man is now possible.
Now eternity has come. Now heaven has touched earth. Now God has pronounced His decision to free us from
the bondage of sin, death and decay. He has given us His victory. He has granted us forgiveness based on faith
that is given us by Him. We now know. The Unknown God, the Lord of heaven and earth, Who dwells not in temples
made with hands, Who needs not anything, seeing that He Himself gives to all life and breath and all things. He blesses
mankind with good things in order that they may sek Him Who is not far from each one of us in Whom we live and move
and have our being and we are His offspring. We are His children. While in the past God has overlooked the times of ignorance,
now He commands all people everywhere to repent, because He has fixed a day on which He will have the world judged in
righteousness by Jesus the Resurrected Christ. The Son of God and the Son of man. Now has appeared the salvation of our God.
This is the day of salvation. Now is the time to answer His call and now is the time to receive His salvation and accept Him
as your Lord and Savior.
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
GOD’S DECISION
Sunday, January 31st, 2010God the Creator and Lord decided to commit Himself to the humans
He created and became one of us so we can be His.
His justice and His Kingdom are proclaimed in His Word.
His Word is Truth and everlasting.
The more we are informed and instructed by His Word
the better we learn to obey Him.
God’s decision to forgive our sins on the basis of His sacrifice
and our faith is His righteousness and glory.
The Father pronounces us to be righteous because of the faith
He gave us in His Son Jesus Christ.
He pronounces us to be His sons because we are accepted in
His beloved Son.
He pronounces us to be free. He pronounces us to be holy.
He pronounces us to be wise.
” But now, apart from the Law, the righteousness of God has
been disclosed and is attested by the Law and the prophets,
the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all
who believe. For there is no distinction, since all have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God; they are now justified by His grace
as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, Whom God put
forth as a sacrifice of atonement by His blood, effective through faith.
He did this to show His righteousness, because in His divine forbearance
He has passed over the sins previously committed;
it was to prove at the present time that he himself is righteous and
that He justifies the one who has faith in Jesus.
Then what becomes of boasting? It is excluded. By what law?
By that of works? No, but by the Law of Faith.
For we hold that a person is justified by faith apart from the works
prescribed by the Law.”
(Romans 3.21-28).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU! WE PRAISE YOUR NAME FOREVER! THANK YOU LORD JESUS!
SET FREE
Sunday, December 27th, 2009SET FREE
God’s entrance into our humanity as Jesus Christ has set us free.
Free from corruption. Free from sin and death. Free from decay.
Free from dissolution, desolation and dissilusion. Free from blindness.
Free from deafness.
Free from ignorance. Free from darkness.
He has, in His infinite wisdom, decided to be one of us, one with us!
He has chosen to share His Love, Light and Joy with us. This is His
Glory! He Who knew no sin became sin for us, so that we can become
the righteousness of God. The righteousness of God shines brighter and
brighter to the point of noon where there is no shadow and no darkness.
Here is how St. Paul explains this:
” For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as
children of Light (lead the lives of those native-born to the Light)!
For the fruit (the effect, the product) of the Light or the Holy Spirit
consists in every form of kindly goodness, uprightness of heart, and
trueness of life.
And try to learn (in your experience) what is pleasing to the Lord
(let your lives be constant proofs of what is most acceptable to Him).
Take no part in and have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds and
enterprises of darkness, but instead (let your lives be so in contrast to)
expose, reprove and convict them. For it is a shame even to speak of or
mention the things that such people do in secret.
But when anything is exposed and reproved by the light, it is made visible
and clear; and where everything is visible and clear there is light.
Therefore He says, Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ
shall shine upon you and give you light.
Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and
accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensibly and
intelligently),
Making the very most of the time (buying up each opportunity) because
the days are evil.
Therefore do not be vague, thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and
firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is.
And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but ever be filled
and stimulated with the Holy Spirit.
Speak out to one another in psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, offering
praise with voices and instruments and making melody with all your
heart to the Lord,
At all times and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ to God the Father.
Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ (the Messiah, the
Anointed One).”
(Ephesians 5.8-21).
POINTS FOR MEDITATION AND PRAISE
1) The great and amazing salvation of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
is to be lived out in our thought and behavior patterns.
2) This is more evident in avoiding and exposing the fruitless deeds of
darkness.
3) Another aspect is being purposeful and precise, sensible and
intelligent, making the most of each opportunity to do good and not waste
any time, because the days are evil and they have been so for the last two
thousand years.
4) It is vital that we know the Will of the Lord concerning our
lives. This is the penetrating Desire of the Parent for the Child, the
Overarching and Specific Divine Imperative for every Moment of
our Lives.
The way we CAN KNOW the Will of the Lord in every instance is found
in the very next verse:
” And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but ever be
filled and stimulated with the Holy Spirit.”
The only way to know His thoughts and desires is to learn to HEAR and HEED
the still, small voice of the Lord. Then we are so on target and precise that
His Joy fills our thoughts and hearts so we are full of praises. psalms,
hymns and spiritual songs in our conversations with each other!
HALLELUJAH! COME, TASTE AND SEE THAT THE LORD IS GOOD!
HE IS OUR FREEDOM, OUR LIGHT,OUR SAVIOR, OUR HEALER,OUR
LEADER AND OUR JOY! PRAISES, HONOR, GLORY, POWER BELONG
TO THE LAMB! THE LORD OF LORDS AND KING OF KINGS JESUS CHRIST!
