This is Jesus Christ speaking to the believers in Jesus Christ in the city of Laodicea. Collectively they were the church in the entire city of Laodicea. And a lot of people believe that they represent the apostate church of these last days, while others say that they represent the church (in...
Laodicea, Laodicea, I’m calling you.
You hear Me calling, you hear Me calling. I’m calling you.
Will you not answer? Will you not answer? I’m calling you.
If you but follow, if you but follow, I’ll answer you.
Won’t you give Me your heart and your soul,
So I can cleanse you and make you whole...
When we live on this earth in these flesh bodies we are going to have pain and sorrows. That is just part of life. And when we believe in Jesus Christ to be Lord (Owner-Master) and Savior of our lives, and we are walking with him in fellowship with him and in obedience to his commands in holy...
How did/does God/Jesus Christ love us? For one, Jesus humbled himself and came to the earth and took on human flesh via being born as a human baby to a human mother. But he was conceived of the Holy Spirit, so while he lived on this earth he was fully human and fully God (God incarnate, in the...
If the Lord is your portion, he is your inheritance, your source of security, your all sufficiency, your Lord (Owner-Master), your Savior (from bondage to sin), and your all-in-all. He is the love of your life, your husband, your Father, your brother, your friend, and your companion. For the...
We who live on the planet earth live in flesh bodies, and the flesh has a tendency to desire all sorts of things which may not be good for us. And then we are bombarded with all sorts of messages coming from TV and movies and videos and music lyrics and social media and advertising, et al, which...
I believe the Lord is leading me to use this story more like a parable today to apply it to our daily lives. So I will begin by stating that in verse 15 it tells us that Jesus withdrew again to the mountain by himself. So he was not with the disciples when they got into this boat. But from here...
Swiftly trickling through the curtains
Comes upon us life uncertain
Unexpected circumstances
Are in store, and happenstances
Time’s a treasure without measure
Please don’t waste in sinful pleasure
Take for granted not what’s given
Waste it not on what’s forbidden
Life can quickly leave us...
The context here is we are being taught that, as followers of Jesus Christ, we are to get rid of every hindrance to our walks of faith in Jesus Christ and every sin which clings so closely, so that we can run with perseverance the race (our walk of faith) that God has set before us, keeping the...
‘Tis the season to be jolly,
Light the trees, and hang the holly,
Join in all the merrymaking,
And in all the cookie baking.
Light your candles on your altars,
Don’t misstep, now don’t you falter,
Cross your T’s and dot your I’s,
Prepare yourself for the surprise.
Join in the bands, and raise...
Do you want to know the main thing that I pray for daily? It is for the salvation of the people of this world from their addiction (slavery) to sin, that they might now surrender their lives to Jesus Christ, to let him be their Lord and Savior to deliver them out of their bondage to sin and to...
“On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being locked where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, ‘Peace be with you.’ When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when...
“Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
bring an offering, and come into his courts!
Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;
tremble before him, all the earth!” (Psalms 96:7-9 ESV)...
