we do not lose heart. Rather, we have renounced secret and

shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the

word of God.

On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend

ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. And if our

Gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of

this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot

see the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, Who is the image

of God.

For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and

ourselves as your servants for Jesus’  sake.

For God, Who said, “Let light shine out of darkness”, made His

light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge

of glory of God in the face of Christ.

(II. Corinthians 4.1-6).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

You know my downsitting and my uprising. You understand my

thought afar off.

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, but, behold, O Lord, You know

it altogether.

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 can 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 the place of the

dead, behold, You are there.

If I take the wings of the morning or dwell in the uttermost part of the sea,

Even there Your hand shall 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.

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 in the depths of the earth.

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!

If I could count them, they would be more in number than the sand. When I

awoke, could I count to the end, I would still be with You.

If You would slay the wicked, O God, and the men of blood depart from me-

Who speak against You wickedly, Your enemies who take Your name in vain!

Do I not hate them, O Lord, who hate You? And am I not grieved and do I not

loathe those who rise up against You?

I hate them with perfect hatred; they have become my enemies.

Search me thoroughly, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my

thoughts!

And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me,and lead me in the way

everlasting.

(Psalm 139).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

divine stewardship which was entrusted to me

for you, to make the Word of God fully known-

The mystery of which was hidden for ages and

generations, but is now revealed to His saints.

To whom God was pleased to make known how

great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory

of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the Hope

of glory.”

(Colossians 1.25-27).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS

FOREVERMORE!

for significance and expressed a calling upon God, especially in

times of stress. Anyone who ponders the specter of death also

wonders about life beyond death and the awareness of even

resurrection.

The reason men, women and children call upon God is because He

has placed a desire deep in us for Him. He desires us. We are His

masterpiece.

We call on Him because He has already answered us before we call.

He has heard us before we were fashioned. He has provided rest for

our sighing, peace in our weariness and comfort as we cry.

He is the Master of Life and Resurrection. In fact Jesus Christ IS THE

RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. The answer to our question and the

goal of our quest.

For the fruit (the effect, the product) of the Light or the 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

as to) expose and 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.

POINTS FOR MEDITATION AND PRAISE

1) Our lives must reflect the Light of Jesus by doing what is pleasing

to Him.

2) When contrasted with those in darkness the results of Christ like

living will convict those who are still in the dark.

3) This will bring glory and honor to our Lord and Savior Jesus

Christ to Whom be honor forever and ever! AMEN!

Also to enlighten all men

and explain to them the

plan behind the mystery

kept hidden through the

ages and concealed until

now in God who created

all things by Christ Jesus.

The purpose is that through

the church the complex,

wisdom of God  with infinite,

many layered variety

and innumerable aspects

might now be revealed to

the angelic rulers and

authorities (principalities

and powers) in the heavenly

sphere.

(Ephesians 3.9 and 10).

POINTS FOR PRAISE

AND MEDITATION

1) The infinite riches of Christ

is proclaimed through the

announcement of the Gospel.

2) This is done in order to

enlighten humanity regarding

God’s plan of salvation.

3) This plan was kept secret

though multiple ages in the

mind of God who created

everything by Christ Jesus.

4) The  reason for this is to

show principalities and

powers in the heavenly sphere

the extent of God’s complex

wisdom which is full of infinite

variety, intricacy and innumerable

aspects.

5) Although we are able to grasp it

at a very elementary level we know

this involves us, we are included and

an integral factor in His unfolding

plan. This verse gives us a glimpse

of the future universe in yet

untold,unimaginable splendor,

incredibly beautiful in scope.

The concepts and vocabulary

of Creation2.0 are yet to be

articulated and comprehended.

The human mind in its current

developmental stage is incapable

of conceptualizing Creation2.0

because this reality can be perceived

only through the Holy Spirit.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU
LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
