Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26

Living the resurrected life!

Jesus is the resurrected life and offers Himself to you without restraint. This life is filled with Living Water and will last forever. If you drink the Living Water, you will never thirst again and you will live with God for eternity.

Jesus is the life who raised Lazarus from death back to living and is yours today. Eternal life is living moment by moment with God and drawing upon His strength, wisdom, and protection. Jesus lives so you can live!

Resurrected life is living in the kingdom of light and following in the foot steps of Jesus. This life is not of the world. It comes from above!

Resurrected life dwells in all believers in the essence of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit allows you come into oneness with Jesus and learn His ways. God is a Spirit and you must worship Him in Spirit and Truth.

Believing in Jesus is living by faith and trusting the Son of God to meet your every need. It is an acknowledgment that “My help comes from the Lord who created the heavens and the earth.”

Breathe in the resurrected life today! Pray, fill yourself with the Living Word, and “Be still and know that I am God.”

Thought for the day:

“I am a God of eternal life. Come to Me by faith and believe in My resurrection. This is your only hope for life! I will raise you up today to live with Me. I offer you what you can never find in the world. My life is complete and I will supply your every need.”

 

 

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all who follow his precepts have good understanding.
To him belongs eternal praise.” Psalm 111:10

The fear of the Lord is a recognition deep in your heart that God has power and dominion over all things and your destiny is in His hands. It is understanding that God blesses and curses. He is a God of retribution.

The fear of the Lord is an awareness of the weakness of your inner nature. You were born in bondage to sin and live in rebellion against the ways of God. You have no hope for life without God. He is your lifeline to eternal life, forgiveness of sins, and living in His righteousness.

The wisdom of God will come to you when you understand and accept God for who He is and make a decision to abandon yourself to Him. The goal is to be dead to sin and alive to God!

You can only come to know God by seeking Him out through prayer, filling yourself with His Word, and coming into oneness with His Spirit. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you!

The wisdom of God will be imparted to you through the Holy Spirit who lives in all believers. He will teach you the ways of God and guide you into His perfect pathway.

Thought for the day:

“Fear Me for who I am! I am a God of greatness, power, glory, victory, and majesty. There is no one like Me. Come to Me by faith in My Word and I will share the fullness of My life with you. I live so you can live.”

 

“He provided redemption for his people;
he ordained his covenant forever—
holy and awesome is his name.” Psalm 111:9

The love of God has exonerated you from all wrong doing. You have been set free. This precious gift has been granted to you through Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

Your sins have been forgiven and you are restored to all almighty God. You have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus and liberated from your past. You have to forgive yourself and walk in the newness of life provided through Jesus Christ.

Your past is behind you and has no power over you.  Live today in freedom with the Son of God.

Thought for the day!

“I am a God of compassion and loving kindness. My mercies are new everyday. Come to Me and I will exonerate you with My blood and set you free from all your sins. I will take away your guilt and remorse. You are a new creature in My presence and I will supply you with an abundant life filled with My love, joy, and hope.”

“In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:6

God wants you to acknowledge His existence in every aspect of your life. Invite God to be a part of your thoughts, emotions, and decision making. Make God the hub or center of your life.

Commit your works to God and His thoughts will be established within you!

Acknowledging God is a mind set of wanting to please Him in all your endeavors. If you invite God into your life each day, He will guide your pathway. He is a God of strength, wisdom, and protection and wants to give you more than you ask or think.

Acknowledging God is understanding His greatness and glory and coming before Him with fear and respect for the most high and exalted God. He is above all things, through all things, and in all things. There is no one who can compare to God.

Acknowledge God by trusting Him for your every need. Come to God for help to meet your every challenge in life. Walk by faith with your Creator who has power and dominion over all things.

The essence of acknowledging God is “In Him we live and move and have our being.”

Thought for the day:

“I have preeminence over all life. I am a complete God and lack nothing. Never doubt My greatness! I will be with you at all times. Abandon yourself to Me and I will share Myself with you. I am the breath of life.”

 

When your world is upside down and nothing makes sense it is hard to accept the Lord is right and true. Where are you when I need you the most?

How can your faithfulness relate to all my troubles? I praise you with my lips and live in your Word. Where is your fulfillment and justice?

You are perfect and you never change. How do I need to change in my time of distress?

Jesus, the Living Word!

Walk with me by faith and do not judge Me by your circumstances. I knew your troubles before they existed and you can trust me to meet you at your point of need. The world will disappoint you but I will bless you abundantly.

I will supply your every need according to the riches in My glory. I live so you can live! I am a complete God and lack nothing!

My unfailing love will fill you with My strength, joy, and peace. Cast your burdens on Me and I will give you freedom and release from your feelings. I will never let you down!

For in the time of trouble, He shall hide you in His pavilion!

Wait on the Lord and trust in My promises! I am an indelible God and cannot be moved. The heavens and earth will pass away but My Words are eternal and will last forever.

The only security in the world is My Word. You can trust My Word implicitly! I am the breath of life!

Let not your heart be troubled! Come to Me and I will fill you with Myself. I am a perfect God in an imperfect world!

“For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12

The Word is alive and powerful and is the embodiment of all truth. God lives in His Word and His Word will never change. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever!

The Word is like a sharp two-edged sword and pierces the depth of your soul, spirit, joints, and marrow. Nothing is left uncovered. You are laid open to God. He examines your thoughts, your motives, and your emotions. God sees all of you and explores areas of your personality hidden from you.

You and I need to invite the Word to search our hearts and reveal anything that is not pleasing to Him.

Your sin will never go away and it is only a second away from causing you to stray from God. This is why God wants you to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ Jesus.

He who is in you is greater than He who is in the world!

It is so easy to fall into sin. You accept a thought for a desire that is not of God. If you allow this desire to increase, sin will be conceived. Then it is only a matter of time before it is lived out in your life. And sin can easily lead you into a bondage of Satan.

You only hope is the Holy Spirit! The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus will set you free from the law of sin and death. Live in oneness with the Spirit of God and He will protect and guide you into the perfect path of God!

Thought for the day:

“You are a human being designed in My image however your soul has been corrupted by sin. I am your only hope to live a godly life. Come to Me by faith and live in oneness with My Spirit. I am He who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For those of you who can accept God but have difficulty believing in Jesus, God has given me this analogy.

Imagine you have been brought to a court of justice to be tried for your sins. God is the presiding judge. He reviews your case and determines you are guilty. You are sentenced to death and the verdict is final. There is no mercy or leniency on His part.

You choose to appeal this verdict to a higher court and Jesus is the judge. He reviews your sins and agrees you are guilty as charged.

However, Jesus has been given the power to forgive all your sins, and restore you to God. You are set free and granted the gift of eternal life. And, He gives you the Holy Spirit to live within you and to keep you in oneness with Him.

The problem is all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God! You have been judged and found to be unworthy of God. You need a mediator!

Your only hope is to reach out to the Son of God. He is your redeemer and the finisher of your faith. All things have been given to Him by God! He is a God of greatness, power, glory, victory, and majesty. He is exalted above every name in heaven and earth!

Thought for the day:

“I am the fullness of the Godhead and the author of life. No one can come to God except through Me! If you deny Me, you deny My Father in heaven.”

 

 

“I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Me.”

Religion is a God of containment!

Religion leads you into a works ethic and causes you to become ingrown. God calls you into faith in His Son and releases you to be His witness to the world.

Religion justifies itself through works. God justifies you by coming in a personal and intimate relationship built on faith in Christ Jesus.

God promises you an abundant life and to share Himself with you. He lives in you through the essence of the Holy Spirit and teaches you the truths of God.

Religion interprets scripture to justify itself and twists the Word of God to accomodate their needs and to codify God’s truths to our changing society.

God promises to fill you with His precious Living Water and to supply your every need according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.

Religion is mostly empty of the Spirit of God and disavows the power and importance of the Holy Spirit.

You cannot understand God without the working of the Holy Spirit in your life. He brings you the reality of God untouched by religion. You see God for who He is and want more of Him.

Thought for the day:

“The practice of works leads to death but My Spirit brings life. You cannot do anything for Me! I completed the works of God on the cross. Come live with Me by faith and worship Me in Spirit and Truth.”

 

 

 

“They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him.” Titus 1:16

Sometime last night God brought this to my attention. Masquerading is living under false pretenses both to yourself and to others.

It is not about going through the motions but living out your faith in almighty God. Jesus Christ wants your undivided devotion and loyalty. You cannot please God by your works or putting on a religious face on Sunday mornings.

The God who can cause stones to cry out with praise and elation for the Son of God wants a heart commitment from you.

God has kept his part of the covenant concerning human life. He has given you Jesus, the Son of God. He is the way, the truth, and the life. He is complete and lacks nothing. He is your only hope for life today and forever.

This epitomizes the walk with God; “I desire to do your will, my God; your law is within my heart.”

As a true believer, you have to be willing to lay down your life for Jesus. You die to self and live for God. He becomes the centerpiece of your life and you develop the attitude “In Him we live and move and have our being.”

God wants your unwavering faith in Him and to judge Him by His Word and never by your circumstances. Challenges in life will come and go but God will never change or contradict His Word.

The Word is your safety net and the path to an abundant life. Pray for a genuine and authentic faith in the Son of God. He loves you!

Thought for the day:

“I am seeking people who will lose their life for Me and live by faith in My promises. Religion is a hypocrisy to My name. Come to Me with an open heart and a desire to live your life through Me. Your faith in who I am will make you whole and set you free.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9

You and I cannot comprehend the majesty and greatness of God. He is above all things, in all things, and through all things. There is nothing in this world untouched by God.

God is everywhere and reigns over all things in heaven and earth. God can shake the earth, turn the sun into darkness, and raise people from death back to life. Great is the Lord!

He is the first and the last God! There is no other God. He is supreme above all things and in Him all things are made. He is the Creator and author of life.

God wants to share His majesty with you. You can experience a glimpse of His greatness and glory through His Son but in Heaven you will see the fullness of His majesty.

God has prepared a way for you to live with Him forever and participate in the richness of His life. Come to Jesus, the Son of God, and He will welcome you into the kingdom of light. The reality of God is living with “Christ in you” and sharing in His life. He lives so you can live!

The gift of God is eternal life and it gives you the ability to live with your Creator forever. Come to Jesus today. He is waiting for you with His arms extended! Worship God in Spirit and Truth. He is worthy of your allegiance!

As a believer, you have the life of Jesus living inside you. He is the fullness of the Godhead. You are complete in Christ and lack nothing. Live out your life through His precious Spirit and He will make you whole!

Thought for the day: 

“I view life differently than you. My life is infinite and has no boundaries!”
