YOU SEE
Monday, December 12th, 2011You see, at just the right time,
when we were still powerless,
Christ died for the ungodly.
(Romans 5.6).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
You see, at just the right time,
when we were still powerless,
Christ died for the ungodly.
(Romans 5.6).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Without having seen Him, you love Him; though you do not now
see Him, you believe in Him and exult and thrill with inexpressible
and glorious (triumphant, heavenly) joy.
At the same time you receive the result of your faith, the salvation
of your souls.
The prophets, who prophesied of the grace which was intended for you,
searched and inquired earnestly about this salvation.
They sought to find out to whom or when this was to come which the
Spirit of Christ working within them was indicating when He predicted
the sufferings of Christ and the glories that should follow.
(I. Peter 1.8-11).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
See what an incredible love the Father has given us, that
we should be named the children of God! And so we are!
The reason that the world does not know us is that it
does not know Him.
Beloved, we are now God’s children; it is not yet disclosed
what we shall be, but when He is manifested, we shall be
like Him, for we shall wee Him just as He is.
(I. John 3.1&2).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
If you love Me, you will keep My commands.
And I will ask the Father, and He will give you
another Comforter (Counselor, Helper,Intercessor,
Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may
remain in you forever-
The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive,
because it does not see Him. But you know Him,
for He lives with you and will be in you.
I will not leave you as orphans; I will come back to you.
Just a little while now, and the world will not see Me any more,
but you will see Me; because I live, you will live also.
At that time you will know that I am in My Father, and
you are in Me, and I am in you.
(John 14.15-20).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Pursue peace with all people, and holiness,
without which no one will see the Lord
(Hebrews 12.14).
HALLELUJAH!THANK YOU LORD JESUS
FOREVERMORE!
CREATION 2.0
For even the whole creation-all nature-
waits expectantly and longs earnestly
for God’s sons to be made known.
For the creation was subjected to futility
not because of some intentional fault on its
part, but by the will of Him
Who subjected it- yet with the hope
that creation itself will be set free
from its bondage to decay and corruption
and gain an entrance into the
glorious freedom of God’s children.
( Romans 8.19-21).
MEDITATION
Meditate on the following:
1) Hope that’s seen is not hope, because
the hoped for reality is not yet manifested.
2) Now hope does not disappoint, because
the love of God has been poured out in our
hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to
us ( Romans 5.5).
3) Nature is subjected to decay, entropy,
futility and frustration, yet awaits with eager
anticipation the manifestation of God’s children.
4) Beloved, now we are the children of God,
and it has not yet been revealed what we
shall be, but we know that when He is revealed
we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him
as He is. ( I.John 3.2).
5) When Jesus Christ is revealed, then
God’s children will also be revealed.
At that time nature will escape corruption.
