01/16          Hebrews 3:5-8

5 Moses was certainly faithful in God’s house as a servant. His work was an illustration of the truths God would reveal later. 6 But Christ, as the Son, is in charge of God’s entire house. And we are God’s house, if we keep our courage and remain confident in our hope in Christ. 7 That is why the Holy Spirit says, “Today when you hear his voice, 8 don’t harden your hearts as Israel did when they rebelled, when they tested me in the wilderness.

FAITHFUL

Like Moses we are called to be faithful to the Lord God.  He gives us the confidence we need to be faithful to Him.  We live in an ungodly World.  Stay close to Jesus and He will constantly renew your faith in Him. 

01/15          Romans 8:38-39

38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

FOREVER
You are bound together in Christ in the family of God forever.  Do not fear Christ is with you.  Do not worry about tomorrow Christ is with you.  Jesus is with you-always-forever. 

01/14          Jeremiah 29:11-13

11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12 In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.

FUTURE

We have a future in Jesus Christ.  He is life.  He is our life.  Filled with the Holy Spirit we confess with Peter that Jesus is the Christ-He is God.  Fully God, fully man Jesus offers eternal life to us-life like God’s.  He is our future. 

01/13          Isaiah 9:1-2

1 Nevertheless, that time of darkness and despair will not go on forever. The land of Zebulun and Naphtali will be humbled, but there will be a time in the future when Galilee of the Gentiles, which lies along the road that runs between the Jordan and the sea, will be filled with glory. 2 The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. For those who live in a land of deep darkness, a light will shine.

LIGHT

The Light of the World has come in Jesus.  He is God come to man.  Jesus would that no one be lost but it is a choice.  Choose Jesus.  He is the Light of the World.

01/12          Ecclesiastes 8:7-8

7 Indeed, how can people avoid what they don’t know is going to happen? 8 None of us can hold back our spirit from departing. None of us has the power to prevent the day of our death. There is no escaping that obligation, that dark battle. And in the face of death, wickedness will certainly not rescue the wicked.

DEATH

There is a day when we will pass from this life into the next.  We don’t know exactly what that will be like but Jesus said that we should be willing to do anything to avoid Hell.  How can we avoid Hell?  By accepting Jesus as Savior and asking Him to forgive you of your sin.  Once we believe in Him and trust Him to save us He says He will never leave us.  When we pass from this life to the next we will be with Him.

01/11          Ecclesiastes 7:14

14 Enjoy prosperity while you can, but when hard times strike, realize that both come from God. Remember that nothing is certain in this life. 

NOTHING

Nothing is certain in life except God’s love.  He loves you.  He is seeking you right this very moment.  He wants to have a relationship with you and then fellowship.  Jesus and Lord and He is calling you to Himself. 

01/10          Proverbs 24:19-22

19 Don’t fret because of evildoers; don’t envy the wicked. 20 For evil people have no future; the light of the wicked will be snuffed out. 21 My child, fear the LORD and the king. Don’t associate with rebels, 22 for disaster will hit them suddenly. Who knows what punishment will come from the LORD and the king?

FEAR

Fear the Lord and serve Him.  Life is short.  Time is fleeting.  You do not know the day of your death.  Serve God and believe in Him and He will change your life so that you can always be with Him.  Jesus is Lord. 

01/09          Proverbs 23:17-18

17 Don’t envy sinners, but always continue to fear the LORD. 18 You will be rewarded for this; your hope will not be disappointed.

SINNERS

Sinners appear to have the upper hand with God but there is pay day some day and tragically it will be much sooner than a person thinks.  Life is short.  Death is permanent.  Turn to Jesus and ask Him to forgive you of your sin.  Trust in Jesus and your life will change forever. 

01/08          Psalm 102:19

18 Let this be recorded for future generations, so that a people not yet born will praise the LORD . 19 Tell them the LORD looked down from his heavenly sanctuary. He looked down to earth from heaven 20 to hear the groans of the prisoners, to release those condemned to die.

JESUS

Jesus came as a little baby at the mercy of the world.  He lived a perfect life, and walked willingly to the Cross and died for us.  The power of God raised Jesus from the dead.  God lived among us.  Jesus has gifted us with the gift of forgiveness and eternal life. 

01/07          Psalm 37:37

37 Look at those who are honest and good, for a wonderful future awaits those who love peace.

PEACE

We love law and order, harmony and living without chaos.  Peace encompasses all of this and even more for in Jesus we have peace with God and that is the cessation of war with Him.  We love Jesus and have trusted Him with our life and have peace with God.  We are no longer at war with Him and His lovingkindness is ours all day every day.  We love peace.
