In Pieces and Scattered

Christ expects the church to grow as Daniel prophesied it would. Starting out as a small stone the church is to grow until the whole earth is filled.  Our cornerstone is Christ. Our rock is Christ. He is sure and steadfast. Nothing can take down the kingdom of God. We fight for something that can never be destroyed. We live for the best thing man has and will ever know. We work for the sake of lost souls coming into the fold. We endure to get everyone to heaven. We are the stones to be scattered. We make the indestructible kingdom in Christ. Live in that truth.

“As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay.  And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.  Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold—the great God has made known to the king what will come to pass after this. The dream is certain, and its interpretation is sure.” Dan. 2:43-45

“Coming to Him as to a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God and precious, you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” 1 Pet. 2:4-5

Be living stones. Be solid, immovable, and usable for the spiritual house. Join the body of Christ tonight as we come together to grow in word and become better soldiers for Christ. Spread and grow the kingdom today. :)

Gal. 1:3-5

Family Light

Make sure your light is always shining no matter what your family is doing. “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.   “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16 NKJV

The Core

The center of all things is life.  Our lives can be run by our selfish ambitions or the life that Christ gives. That decision rest in your hands. If your life revolves around you and what you want, then you will be rewarded accordingly. However, if your life revolves around Christ there is a crown of life awaiting you. Who has to get out of the way for this to happen? You do. You have to crucify yourself. You must say “It is no longer I who lives, but Christ lives in me!”  We must enthrone Christ in our lives. Make your life Christ centered.  Start today. “But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus:  that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.” Eph. 4:20-24 "I ha...

The Other Half

            It is a wonderful Thursday. Every day is wonderful in the Lord. For Christians knowledge is half the battle. We can know all about God’s word. We could have read the bible ten times over. We can master bible trivia.  What good is it if we do not act on it? Obtaining and keeping the knowledge of the truth is half the battle. The other half is doing it. Without action knowledge has no value. What good is having the knowledge a bridge it out, seeing warning signs that the bridge is out, and watching others suffer from the bridge being out if it does not cause you to act? Your fate will be the same as all the others who had knowledge but did not act. Only those who act will be blessed. How much action/work are putting forth in the Lord? How much of yourself are you giving? We must fight the other half of the battle. That other half is the life we have been blessed by God to live on this earth.  Go work in Christ t...
