"But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man" (Luke 21:34-38). I have to believe Jesus was talking directly to disciples and warning them to be prayerful in the midst of persecution. Certainly our brothers and sisters in the Islamic Countries have no problem living by these warnings, nor did the persecuted church throughout history, or the first generation of believers have a problem interpreting these...
PROVE IT! As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead. James 2:26 Have you ever heard anyone say that; Actions speak louder than words? When I was in grammar school, there was always some kids on the playground who would brag about how fast they could run or how high a tree they could climb. Their bragging would be most of the time met with, Oh yeah? Prove it! In short, this is what James 2:14-26 is saying, Prove it. There is quite a difference in saying you believe and actually believing. Lip service is useless without actions backing it. There is the business of living out your faith in Jesus. And according to James 2:26, True faith will always be accompanied by actions. Our works are the life of faith...
The Real Grace of God (Jude 1:4 states), For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ. I want to point out a phrase that I believe is very dangerous ground for the Church in America today. It is the phrase, "Ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness." Lewdness literally means unrestrained lust, wickedness, and immorality. These people believed that once you were saved, you could live however you wanted. There are people in the Church today with this type of thinking. They believe that if you are saved by grace, and their good works doesn't merit salvation, then...
Very Powerful Promises In These Verses Psalms 91:9-16 (NLT) 9 If you make the Lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, (HIS CONDITIONS) 10 no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. (Promise) 11 For He will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. (Promise) 12 They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.

"Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures" (Luke 24:45) -- We ask for The Holy Spirit of wisdom and revelation to understand God more intimately (Eph 1:17), grace to crave the Word of God as an infant does its mother's milk (1 Pet 2:2), and Holy Spirit of the Fear of the Lord (Isa 11:2) to be a doer of the Word and not just a hearer (James 1:22), to come to the entire Body of Christ throughout the Earth. May we cry out aloud for wisdom before Bible reading and hearing preaching. Pray for our pastors, family members, home group leaders, ministry leaders and remember those in chains for the gospel, their families and flocks, in Jesus name. "Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these...
The 'dividing line'...for the coming of the 'time' of it 'ALL'... now for all to witness the coming of 'the rules have been changed,' for now upon the land...a great happening of 'fear and contempt of truth'... for 'ALL'...'to bear witness'...the foolishness of the intellectual communities spewing false deception...has brought about the profound 'falling away'... of the Creator of 'ALL THINGS'...for they shall cry out in vain! Let them NOW come to understand, for they shall come to comprehend... the 'light' shall overcome the 'darkness'...of the 'Nature Of All Things'. Make No Mistake...God's Kingdom Shall Not Be Denied... for of those that come to know...I AM YOU...YOU ARE I... THE ONENESS OF ONE PURPOSE...GOD'S KINGDOM 'TO BE'.
Adoration: Father in Heaven, we thank You for the Blood of Jesus that grants forgiveness and His Spirit which Cries out attesting adoption, Abba, Father (Gal 4:6, Rom 8:15).
