Jesus: A Wonderful Gift

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.15.13.NASB1995

For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.
Romans 8:24-25 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.8.24-25.NASB1995

🌹looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

Hindering Unbelief

And He (Jesus) did not do many miracles (works of power) there because of their unbelief.
Matthew 13:58 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.13.58.NASB1995

Do we hinder the work of God by our unbelief?
Do we believe He is able to do the impossible through us? In us? For us?

And Jesus said to him, “ ‘If You can?’ All things are possible to him who believes.”
Mark 9:23 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/mrk.9.23.NASB1995

🌹Jesus *said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?”

Saved For a Relationship

that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
Romans 10:9 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/rom.10.9.NASB1995

Wedding day. Two excited, anxious hearts awaiting the “I Do’s”. The groom stands at the front of the church. Here comes the bride to join him. They confess their love to one another and at the end of the service they go live their own lives. . . Wait. . . Rewind.

Is this the way we are when it comes to the marriage of Christ and the church? Christ and a professing believer?

“I walked the aisle.” “I confessed that Jesus is Lord and that He was raised from the dead.” Now that I’m saved I’m insured . . . I mean assured a place in heaven, right?

At salvation our life, our walk with Christ, begins. It is an everyday, growing all the way, surrendered relationship with God. It is daily communication – prayer, Bible reading. It is confessing the work of Christ in our lives – testimonies. It is bringing others to the altar of confession for redemption.

It is living ‭
so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:10-11 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.2.10-11.NASB1995

‭Are you living a separate life from Jesus? Or are you walking with Him all the way to the promised land?

🌹I am the good shepherd, and I know My own and My own know Me,

Talk to God

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
Philippians 4:6 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.4.6.NASB1995

What is the cure for anxiety?
Pray.

Now He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,
Luke 18:1 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.18.1.NASB1995

Pray Believing

And all things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
Matthew 21:22 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.21.22.NASB1995

Pray with Persistence

“Ask (keep asking), and it will be given to you; seek (keep seeking), and you will find; knock (keep knocking), and it will be opened to you.
Matthew 7:7 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/mat.7.7.NASB1995

If the persistence is lacking we are probably asking for something we really don’t want or need.  Persistence in prayer may also be because God is preparing us for the answer. How often do we pray for something without really thinking about how the answer would affect our walk? Persistence so we are aligned with God’s will and purpose.

Pray Trusting

This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
1 John 5:14-15 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/1jn.5.14-15.NASB1995

🌹Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/pro.3.5-6.NASB1995

Pray with a thankful heart.

Is Your Seal Set?

“He (Jesus) who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
What He has seen and heard, of that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.
He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.
For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for He gives the Spirit without measure.
The Father loves the Son and has given all things into His hand.
He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
John 3:31-36 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.3.31-36.NASB1995

Have you set your seal to this, that God is true?
Is the Spirit working in and through you?
Do you believe?

Observe, Be Astonished

Things happening in this world may bring fear, uncertainty, and seem as if it is out of control, but God.
God is always at work in His creation. God is in control.

🌹“Look among the nations! Observe! Be astonished! Wonder! Because I am doing something in your days— You would not believe if you were told.

Eye Witness

“He who comes from above is above all, he who is of the earth is from the earth and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
John 3:31 NASB

Jesus came from heaven. Jesus is above all! You can deny this truth but one day you will know for sure that Jesus is above all. God, the Father, has given all authority to Jesus in heaven and on earth.

And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.
Matthew 28:18 NASB

Are you an expert on heaven?
Are you and expert on God?

Jesus is. He is the Only one who has ever descended from heaven to also ascend to heaven.

No one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man.
John 3:13 NASB

What He has seen and heard, of that He testifies; and no one receives His testimony.
John 3:32 NASB

Jesus speaks testifies to the truth of God the Father and heaven because He has seen and heard first hand. He did not need faith as we do. We simply need to believe and trust that Jesus is the Christ sent by the Father for our sake.

🌹And there is salvation in no one else (JesusChrist); for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.”
Acts 4:12 NASB

Please Seek Jesus.
