How content are you that if you died tonight you would be ushered into the presence of God and live with Him eternally?

Are you hanging your assurance on that walk down the aisle? Or on a prayer recited? Or are you clinging to Jesus, your Savior; following in His footsteps, being obedient to the Word of God and doing His will?

Only you and God can answer that question. I pray you are confident of your salvation. Seek God. Read His word. Pray.

🌹Make sure you know that you know that you know that you know!

Righteous Garment

The Potter-Day 1

Sep18

A lump of clay. Just a blob until it is placed in the hands of a potter.

A new born baby is similar to a lump of clay. They are helpless without the care of a parent. This helpless baby, under the care of loving parents will learn to walk, talk, dress themselves, etc.

Aren’t parents a type of potter, transforming this baby, lump of clay, into someone beautiful and special?

🌹Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6 NASB

like newborn babies, long for the (unadulterated) pure (spritual) milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in (up to salvation) respect to salvation,
1 Peter 2:2 NASB

We all were a lump of clay in the physical realm. But what about the spiritual realm?
Have you placed your life in the Potter’s hands? Are you still a lump of clay in need of salvation? Are you in the word, being transformed by the Potter into a useful vessel?

Be sure to stop by tomorrow for the transformation of clay in the Potter’s hands.

Continually Seeking Him,

Are You Sealed?

Sep13

Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Everyone who names the name of the Lord is to abstain from wickedness.”
2 Timothy 2:19 NASB

“The Lord knows those who are His.“
Aren’t those some beautiful words? As I was reading this yesterday those words just jumped off the page. I am known by the the good Shepherd! I am known by the Savior of the world! I am known by the King of kings. I am known by the Lord of lords. I am known by the Creator of all peoples and things. I am so blessed to know the God who knows me. He has revealed His great love for me and I shall love Him forever!

but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him.
1 Corinthians 8:3 NASB

Do you know the One who loves you like no other and knows you? I hope so. There is no better relationship you can have than knowing the one and only true, living God! Seek and you will find.

In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,
Ephesians 1:13 NASB

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