Bring Alongside

        It is a Tuesday/Monday day for us. We have had a blessed weekend! Let us add to our faith today. Let us add virtue, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love. We need to bring these in by the side of what God does.  God’s part is done only on the condition that we do ours.  This list is something that does not get added to our faith like you add a sack of potatoes to your grocery bill. It takes effort. It takes focus and diligence to add these to your faith. Although they are very small and insignificant compared with what God does for us we must add them. Every child of God must hasten to add them to our faith so that we may avail in the promises and blessings of our Father. Do not lack in them being shortsighted, even to blindness, forgetting you are cleansed for your old sins. We must add and abound in these things alongside what God does so that we may be fruitful in the knowledge of Christ. Choose one from this list and work on it today. Add to your faith today.

“But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins.” 2 Pet. 1:5-9

Be fruitful in the knowledge of our Lord and savior. Seek to add to your faith today. Seek to save lost souls this week! Keep working hard for our reward is out of this world! :)

Gal. 1:3-5

In The Name Of

Everything that we do must be in the name of Jesus. The phrase “in the name of” identifies by whose authority. Everything we do we must do in and by the authority of Christ. We cannot quit because Christ is with us. Jesus made it clear if we do His commands He is with us tell the end of the age. We must work and operate within His authority and by His authority.   Success outside of this parameter is not godly success but worldly achievement. Therefore, it is nothing more than sin. In order to never quit and have an attitude of success only we must remain in Christ authority. The right growth, maturity, success rate, and prize in only found in Christ. Everything else is only an illusion of what could be.   Keep working in the name of Jesus. ““Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; ”” Acts 2:38 “And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through...

The Effects

Make sure you are taking into account eternity with every choice you make about fun and pleasure. We will all be held accountable. As a family, we want to cultivate an environment that continually produces good wholesome fun. “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.” 1 Corinthians 5:10 NKJV

With Spirit

     We are to worship God in spirit and truth. Truth being His word. Our spirit is what makes us up. Our spirit is all that we have. Who cares what that sounds like or what our best may amount to, to the ears and eyes of the world. God asked for all of us. Lip service will not suffice. Man-made concepts will cause our worship to come up short in God’s eyes. Be mindful of this. Give Him all you have. Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:   ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ” Matthew 15:7-9 NKJV
