They laughed at Him,
knowing that she was dead.
But He took her by the hand
and said, “My child, get up!”
Her spirit returned, and at
once stood up.
Then Jesus told them to give
her something to eat.
Her parents were astonished,
but He ordered them no to
tell anyone what happened.
(Luke 8.53-56).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
As for you, you were dead in your
transgressions and sins, in which
you used to live when you followed
the ways of this world and of the ruler
of the kingdom of the air, the spirit
who is at work in those who are
disobedient.
All of us also lived among them at
one time, gratifying the cravings
of our sinful nature and following
its desires and thoughts.
Like the rest, we were by nature
objects of wrath.
But because of His great love for us,
God, Who is rich in mercy, made us
alive with Christ even when we were
dead in transgressions- it is by grace
you have been saved.
And God raised us up with Christ and
seated us up with Him in the heavenly
realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in
the coming ages He might show the
incomparable riches of His grace, expressed
in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.
For it is by grace you have been saved,
through faith- and this is not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by
works, so that no one can boast.
For we are God’s workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus to do good
works, which God prepared in advance
for us to do.
(Ephesians 2.1-10).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
For the word of God is living and active.
Sharper than any double-edged sword,
it penetrates even to the dividing soul
and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges
the attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all
creation is hidden from God’s sight.
Everything is uncovered and laid bare
before the eyes of Him to Whom we must
give account.
(Hebrews 4.12 &13).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Therefore 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).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit
that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh
is from God, but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus
is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you
have heard is coming and even now is already in the world.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them,
because the One Who is in you is greater than the one who is
in the world.
(I. John 4.2-4).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
The 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!
This is the One Who came by water and blood- Jesus Christ.
He did not come by water only, but by water and blood.
And it is the Spirit Who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth.
For there are three that testify: the Spirit, the water and the blood;
and the three are in agreement.
(I. John 5.6-8).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Now there was a certain man among the Pharisees
named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews,
Who came to Jesus at night and said to Him,
Rabbi, we know and are certain that You have
come from God; for no one can do these signs
that You do unless God is with him.
Jesus answered him, I assure you, most solemnly
I tell you, that unless a person is born again, he cannot
ever see the kingdom of God.
Nicodemus said to Him, How can a man be born when
he is old? Can he enter his mother’s womb again and
be born?
Jesus answered, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you,
unless a man is born of the water and the Spirit, he cannot
enter the kingdom of God.
What is born of the flesh is flesh; and what is born of the
Spirit is spirit.
(John 3.1-6).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Parents, do not provoke or irritate or fret your children
(do not be hard on them or harass them), lest they become discouraged
and sullen and morose and feel inferior and frustrated. (Do not break
their spirit).
(Colossians 3.21).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
God has not given us a spirit of fear,
but of power, love and sound mind.
(II. Timothy 1.7).
