Turn To Me

Jan2

Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other. Isaiah‬ ‭45:22‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.45.22.NASB1995

God is inclusive when it comes to the offer of salvation. He already knows that all are sinners – all nationalities, all walks of life, all ages, – and that we all fall short of His glory. But God. God simply says, turn to Me and be saved. God created all mankind, that’s everybody,  and He is the only way to salvation from the sin and corruption of each individual’s life in this world. Now is the time of salvation.

‭‭Behold, now is “the acceptable time,” behold, now is “the day of salvation”—
2 Corinthians‬ ‭6:2‬b ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/2co.6.2.NASB1995

Any delay could cost you your eternity. The payment made by Jesus Christ on the cross for you is eternal joy. The cost of refusing the payment made by Jesus is eternal hell. Hell does not come close to the hell you might be experiencing in your earthly life. Just remember that the choice is yours. Jesus simply says, “Turn to Me and be saved”.

‭‭🌹The Lord has bared His holy arm In the sight of all the nations, That all the ends of the earth may see The salvation of our God.
Isaiah‬ ‭52:10‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

What a way to close out a month of thanksgiving. Thank you for taking this journey with me and for those who shared their thankfulness, thank you for those blessings.
I hope you will continue to bring glory and praise to God through thanksgiving everyday of your life.

Continue on with a thankful heart. It will be great practice for eternity, worshipping our God.
‭‭‭‭
🌹And every created thing which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all things in them, I heard saying, “To Him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and dominion forever and ever.”
Revelation‬ ‭5:13‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

“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.

Your Best Interest

Jun30

For thus says the high and exalted One Who lives forever (dwells in eternity), whose name is Holy, “I dwell on a high and holy place, And also with the contrite and lowly of spirit In order to revive the spirit of the lowly And to revive the heart of the contrite.
Isaiah 57:15 NASB

Can you even fathom that the God of the universe,
– who is purely Holy (Isaiah 57:15)and
– who is eternal (Isaiah 57:15)
– who dwells on high on a throne in holy heaven with the earth as His footstool (Isaiah 66:1a)
– who made heaven and earth and all things that have come into being (Isaiah 66:2a)
Would care enough to dwell also with a contrite and lowly spirit such as you and me?

The Lord declares, “But to this one I will look, To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.
Isaiah 66:2 NASB

Why?
Because.  .  .

– The Lord is near to the brokenhearted And saves those who are crushed in spirit. (Psalm 34:18)
– God will not despise a broken and contrite heart (Psalm 51:17)
– so He can revive the heart of the broken hearted

🌹To grant those who mourn in Zion, Giving them a garland instead of ashes, The oil of gladness instead of mourning, The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.
Isaiah 61:3 NASB

What an awesome God!!

Seek and trust God. He has your best interest at heart.

Home of The Holy Spirit

The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; nor is He served by human hands, as though He needed anything, since He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things; Acts 17:24‭-‬25 NASB1995

God, You are the Lord, who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and its offspring (vegetation), who gives breath to the people on it and spirit to those who walk in it, the God who made the world and all things in it! Behold, to You, God, belong heaven and the highest heavens, the earth and all that is in it. Who is able to build a house for You, for the heavens and the highest heavens cannot contain You? And yet You dwell in the believer! For we are the temple of the living God; just as You, God, have said, “I will dwell in them and walk among them; And I will be their God, and they shall be My people”. Help me God to remember that I am Your temple, the temple of the Holy Spirit of God, dwelling in me, whom you have given me, God, and that I am not my own. Thank You God for Your Spirit within me who will cause me to walk in Your statutes, and guide me to be careful to observe Your ordinances. To You be the glory, God, in and through me for Your will to be done. In the perfect name of Jesus I pray, amen.  Isaiah 42:5/Deuteronomy 10:14/2 Chronicles 2:6a/2 Corinthians 6:16/1 Corinthians 3:16/1 Corinthians 6:19/Ezekiel 36:27 NASB

🌹However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. Romans 8:9 NASB

Look to God

Jun24

Have you ever experienced, truly experienced the joy of the Lord? I’m not taking about when things are going well in your life and you rejoice and are thankful to God; but when you are in the midst of turmoil and nothing is going right and you have a joy beyond explanation. Your heart is overflowing with love for the Lord. When you can’t contain it and your face shows it. Your mouth is opened with praise and song to THE  awesome God of all. When your eyes see only Jesus and His abundant love for you.

David wrote in time of fear as He fled from King Saul. He looked to his God.

My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises! Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples; I will sing praises to You among the nations. For Your lovingkindness is great to the heavens And Your truth to the clouds. Be exalted above the heavens, O God; Let Your glory be above all the earth.
Psalms 57:7‭-‬11 NASB

🌹Hoping you experience the joy of the Lord today.

God is Watching

Mar9

The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men; 
From His dwelling place He looks out On all the inhabitants of the earth,
He who fashions the hearts (their heart together) of them all, He who understands all their works.
Psalms 33:13‭-‬15 NASB

The Lord has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men To see if there are any who understand, Who seek after God.
Psalms 14:2 NASB

🌹Are you seeking God?

Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His face continually.
Psalms 105:4 NASB

He Spoke

Mar4

By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host. 
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deeps in storehouses.  Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
Psalms 33:6‭-‬9 NASB

🌹By His word, one breath. . . Do you stand in awe and shear reverence of God? He spoke. . . Done. His commands stand still today.

God, today may we stand in awe of You and the brilliant God You are. To You be the glory for the things You have done! Praise You for the things You are still doing!

Continually Seeking Him,

Sharon

70 Years!?

Sep2

The inhabited cities will be laid waste and the land will be a desolation. So you will know that I am the Lord.
Ezekiel 12:20

Recently I’ve heard, “I am so tired of this Covid thing” or, “I am so over this, I am ready to go back to normal”.

What is normal? Living life for me, me, me?

God has a plan. He had a plan for Israel when they went into captivity in Egypt for 70 years. He had a plan when He sent them again into captivity in Babylon under the rule of Nebuchadnezzar.

What is God’s plan? “So you will know that I am the Lord”.

Contentment can be found in nothing less than Almighty God. Contentment can be found during desolation and captivity when our hearts belong to Him. Our focus is on God.

“All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, But He does according to His will in the host of heaven And among the inhabitants of earth; And no one can ward off His hand Or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’
Daniel 4:35‭ NASB

Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise, exalt and honor the King of heaven, for all His works are true and His ways just, and He is able to humble those who walk in pride.”
Daniel 4:37 NASB
(Nebuchadnezzar’s testimony is in Daniel 4. You might want to read it).

🌹Are you humbly focused on God and His will? If this Covid lifestyle should last 70 years you can be content in Him?

Seeking Generation

Aug17

 

The earth is the Lord’s, and all it contains,

The world, and those who dwell in it.
2 For He has founded it upon the seas
And established it upon the rivers.
3 Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord?
And who may stand in His holy place?
4 He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood
And has not sworn deceitfully.
5 He shall receive a blessing from the Lord
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6 This is the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face—even  Jacob.              Selah.            — Psalm 24:1-6

Do we have a generation of seekers alive today? Who are those of the generation who seek Him, who seek His face?

Could it be those who dwell upon the earth knowing that the Lord is the Creator of the earth and all that it contains? Those who believe the world and they themselves belong to God? Could that person or persons have clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted their souls to falsehood nor sworn deceitfully and been blessed? Are you that person who has received righteousness from the God of your salvation and been granted entry into the Lord’s holy presence? Do you seek Him?

We need a generation that Seeks the Lord and His strength; that seeks His face continually. (Psalm 105:4) Are you a part of that generation?

Continually seeking Him,

Sharon
