Redemption: A New Reality

  Isaiah 54: 5-8 To be redeemed in simple terms is to be bought back. It implies a value has been placed on you. It means a price has been used to purchase you. The redeemer is the relative who pays the purchasing price to buy us back from slavery. Redemption takes us from darkness into light, from slavery into freedom. Redemption places value on you because you are bought back at a price more than your original value! Jesus Christ is our redeemer! He is our kinsman redeemer! He is our relative, our kin by virtue of salvation, by accepting His salvation by faith! His blood redeems us and makes us His relatives. Redemption brings us into a new spiritual reality. Colossians 1:13 The purchase and transaction that was made to get you redeemed is the sufferings, the bleeding, the death (crucifixion) and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Redemption offers us many benefits! Redemption grants us access into the riches of God's grace. Ephesians 1:7 Redemption is our ticket to a new reality! Red...

Ride Triumphantly

  Luke 19:28-40 Jesus rode triumphantly on a donkey into Jerusalem. This happened before His death and resurrection. His riding on a donkey into Jerusalem was prophesied long before Jesus was born. Zechariah 9:9 The donkey to be used was a donkey no man had ever rode on before. The donkey to be used was prepared, kept and chosen by God. In the same manner, everything you need for your life and godliness God has provided. 2 Peter 1:3 Jesus's life played out according to the prophecy spoken about Him and written about Him. Luke 4:18-21 As it was with Jesus, so it should be with us regarding the prophecy God has written and spoken concerning us. God has a prophetic destiny for each of us. Our life on this earth should be an outplay of what God has spoken, revealed and written about us. God has a plan for our lives. Jeremiah 29:11 Judah Iscariot fulfilled negative prophecy. May that not be your portion, may you not fulfil negative prophecy. John 17:12 As far as prophecy goes, may the l...

Be Encouraged

1 Thessalonians 5:11 The need for encouragement is a need common to humanity. We all need encouragement from time to time, not because we are weaklings but because life's journey requires it. Our  need for encouragement is one God has made provision for in His wisdom. Through God's word we get encouragement. When we begin to read about the love of God for us, we are encouraged through life's journey. When we begin to understand the nature of God- His goodness, His loving kindness, His mercy and benevolence we are encouraged. As we delve into the abilities of God from the pages of the scriptures, we are encouraged. The word of God shows us God is able. Ephesians 3:20 The word shows us God is dependable. Numbers 23:19 The word shows us God is near us, He is of close proximity to us and can be reached. Psalm 145:18 God is all knowing, He sees, He hears and very importantly He can take action. Psalm 139:1-4 All these facts about God are truth, as we learn them through the scrip...

Freedom & The Law Of The Spirit

  Romans 8:1,2 It is obvious in more parts of the Bible than one, that God wants us free. To be free in Christ, that is. Free to worship Christ Jesus without feeling unworthy or condemned. Free to live out God's will for our lives without doubt, fear or anxiety. In Christ we are free to claim healing and wholeness. In Christ we are free to receive the love of God and love others. In Christ we are not bound, we are free. We are free to be creative. Free to be blessed. Free to receive from God  and free to give to others.. We are free to use our faith. We are free to spend our faith in the spiritual realm. We are free to approach God and have a relationship with Him. In Christ we are free to be blessed and claim blessings. We are free to enjoy all God has created- food, nature, healthy relationships, and rest. We are free to rest and sleep well at the appropriate time. We are free to prosper, progress,  and prevail. We are righteous and holy, blameless before God, this is f...

Its Not Too Late

 Joel 2:12,13 Our text passage shows us God is saying to us it is not too late. We can still turn to Him with all our heart. If you are alive it is not too late, if God is not giving up on you it is not too late. It is never too late with God. If God is involved its not too late. If God is in it, it is not too late. If God instructed it, its not too late. When God is directing, it is not too late. If God is the one guiding, it will not be too late. If God gave the dream, getting the provision to execute the dream is not too late. If God is the source, the delays become rearrangements and realignments. With God, the delays and what we have been through qualify us for our next level. To you and to men, it may seem too late but God's perspective is what matters and God's view is different from the view of men. God has His timing and ways, and because men do not always know God's timing and God's ways we think it is too late when it is not. At 75 Abraham didn't have a b...

Winning By A Miracle

 Psalm 20:7 Our text passage lets us know the name of the Lord is where our help is and it is more dependable than chariots and horses or the smart inventions of man. The trust of many people is in all the wrong things, their trust is in things that will ultimately fail them, that's what our text passage tells. The Name of the Lord is where our help is. "Chariots and horses" as our text passage mentions, refers to man made devises, structures and systems. A chariot is a transportation carriage fashioned by men and pulled by a horse or horses. Horses on the other hand are animals men have learned to ride that enhances transportation and productivity. What are you looking to outside of God to enhance your life and make you better? Who are you looking to outside of God to help you get far or transport you into the league, success or promotion you desire? There are things like chariots and horses that look dependable, strong and seem to be working. they might even bring some ...
