FREE
Wednesday, December 7th, 2011Once you were alienated from God
and were enemies in your minds
because of your evil behavior.
But now He has reconciled you
by Christ’s physical body through
death to present you holy in His
sight, without blemish and free
from accusation- if you continue
in your faith, established and
firm, not moved from the hope
held out in the gospel (Best News
Ever). This is the gospel that you
heard and that has been proclaimed
to every creature under heaven, and
of which I, Paul have become a servant.
(Colossians 1.21-23).

BENEFITS
Sunday, October 30th, 2011Bless 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 loving-kindness and tender
mercies,
Who satisfies your mouth with
good things, so that your youth
is renewed like the eagle’s.
(Psalm 103.1-5).

BE HOLY
Wednesday, September 21st, 2011But just as He Who called you is holy,
so be holy in all you do; for it is written:
“Be holy, because I am holy.”
(I. Peter 1.15 & 16).

WONDERFUL
Thursday, May 12th, 2011But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people
belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of Him Who called
you out of darkness into His wonderful light.
(I.Peter 3.9).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
PRECIOUS
Wednesday, May 11th, 2011As you come to Him, the living Stone
- rejected by men but chosen by God
and precious to Him- you also, like
living stones, are being built into a spiritual
house to be a holy priesthood, offering
spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God
through Jesus Christ. For in Scripture it says:
“See, I lay a stone in Zion,
a chosen and precious cornerstone,
and the one who trusts in Him
will never be put to shame.”
Now to you who believe, this stone is precious.
But to those who do not believe,
“The stone the builders rejected has
become the capstone,”
“A stone that causes men to stumble
and a rock that makes them fall.”
They stumble because they disobey
the message- which is also what
they were destined for.
But you are a chosen people, a royal
priesthood, a holy nation, a people
belonging to God, that you may declare
the praises of Him Who called you
out of darkness into His wonderful light.
(I. Peter 2.4-9).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
ACTION
Wednesday, May 4th, 2011Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully
on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. As obedient children,
do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just
as He Who calle dyou is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: ” Be holy,
because I am holy.”
(I. Peter
ISRAEL
Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will now bring Jacob back from
captivity and will have compassion on all the people of Israel, and I will be zealous
for My holy name. They will forget their shame and all the unfaithfulness they showed
toward Me when they lived in safety in their land with no one to make them afraid.
When I have brought them back from the nations and have gathered them from the
countries of their enemies, I will show Myself holy through them in the sight of many
nations. Then they will know that I am the Lord their God, for though I sent them into
exile among the nations, I will gather them to their own land, not leaving any behind.
I will no longer hide My face from them, for I will pour out My Spirit on the house of
Israel, declares the Sovereign Lord.
(Ezekiel 39.25-29).

NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH
Friday, April 15th, 2011But the day of the Lord will come like a thief.
The heavens will disappear with a roar;
the elements will be destroyed by fire, and
the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.
Since everything will be destroyed in this way,
what kind of people ought you to be? You ought
to live holy and godly lives as you look forward
to the day of God and speed its coming. That day
will bring about the destruction of the heavens by
fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in
keeping with His promise we are looking forward to
a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to
this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless
and at peace with Him. Bear in mind that our Lord’s
patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul
also wrote to you with the wisdom that God gave him.
He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them
of these matters. His letters contain some things that are
hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people
distort, as they do to other Scriptures, to their own
destruction.
Therefore, dear friends, since you already know this,
be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by
the error of lawless men and fall from your secure position.
But grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen!
(II. Peter 3.11-18).
