Scriptures to Meditate on today - Faith !

This week I'll be writing about Faith, Trusting , Waiting, Hope and Timing in Christ Jesus ! Scriptures to Meditate on today - Faith ! Let us look at Abraham, Moses and Peter walking by faith and trusting God's Word. The scripture says, "Abraham believed God, and because of his faith God accepted him as righteous. Moses the rebuke he suffered for His faith in God was not easy. For it is written in Hebrews 11:24-26, By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. Let's look at Peter walking on water, when Jesus told Peter to "Come." For it is written in Matthew 14: 29-31, “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?” He stepped out of the boat, but something took place. He took his eyes off of Jesus and he began to sink. We have to keep looking to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. For it is written in Hebrews 12:1-2,Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. We have to understand that everything is moving forward in this world and in the spirit realm too. We live and walk by faith not by sight children of God. For it is written in 2 Corinthians 5:7,For we live by faith, not by sight. Meditate on faith scriptures everyday can and will change your perspective in all that you see, feel and think. God cannot lie and His Word will not return to Him void. For it is written in Numbers 23:19, God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Remind yourself that your faith is in God, Our Heavenly Father who will never leave us nor forsake us. Let us stand firm in the faith of Jesus Christ. For it is written in 1 Corinthians 16:13,Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Awake from sleeping, stand up and run your race, keep the faith in Christ Jesus. Abba Father thank you for "YOUR WORD." May the spirit of Yahweh keep us and strengthen us by "HIS HOLY SPIRIT." For it is written in Ephesians 3:16-19,  I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,  may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,  and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. We pray for Israel, our country and we pray for those in authority in Washington DC, our churches, our teachers, our officers, our communities, our local states and national leaders, the nations, our front line workers and the body of Christ. Lord, I pray that we all have your wisdom in moving forward on the earth. Let us seek, "Your Will God" for the body of Christ. For it is written in 2 Chronicles 7:14, If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/

Scriptures to Meditate on this weekend- Pray for the Nation and the Leadership !

Scriptures to Meditate on this weekend- Pray for the Nation and the Leadership ! Let us be true to God and ourselves, sometimes praying for our leaders can be hard, because we don't agree with the way they're leading us and people sometimes. It's okay to agree and disagree, but only in peace. We (believers) are the body of Christ and we're all Commanded to Pray for one another. For it is written in 1 Timothy 2:1-4,I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.We are to live in balance; standing for what is truth and seeking unity for one another, whenever possible, standing firm in the faith of Jesus Christ. We're to show grace to all humans and hold all our leaders accountable for right and wrong. That's God's command for us all to pray for each other and to have forgiveness. For it is written in 1 Peter 3:9, Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing. And yet we're called to pray for their wisdom and well-being at all times. In 1944, Franklin D. Roosevelt Delivers D-Day Prayer. In a national radio broadcast on June 6, 1944, as 160,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy in an attempt to liberate France, President Franklin D. Roosevelt asked America to join him in a prayer. Will the next Leadership call out for another Prayer Day for the Nation? I don't know, but I'm standing on the rock of my salvation calling out to the "True Believers of Christ'' stand up and make a sound in the earth- Abba Father we're crying out to you today for the people and the Nation/Nations. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory,for ever and ever. Amen. All the people and the nations will one day bow down and turn back to God. For it is written in Psalm 22:27-28,All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations. People of God it's time to surrender and Trust Him (God) Wholeheartedly. Lord, I pray for our country and I pray for those in authority in Washington DC, our churches, our teachers, our officers, our communities, our local states and national leaders, our front line workers and the body of Christ. Lord, I pray that we all have your wisdom in moving forward on the earth. Let us seek, "Your Will God" for it is written in 2 Chronicles 7:14, If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/

Scriptures to Meditate on this week - "Get Wisdom!"

Scriptures to Meditate on this week - "Get Wisdom!"  I woke up this morning hearing the Holy Spirit speak, knowing the differences between good and evil. So, we have to get an understanding of the two words. I looked up the meaning of good, to be desired or approved of. And evil means profoundly immoral and wicked. The two words good and evil are abstract concepts. These two concepts are often considered as the opposite of each other. And that's something we all need to understand. Evil means profoundly immoral and wicked while good means moral, pleasing and welcoming. This is the key difference between good and evil within people. ‘Good’ means a lack of self-centredness. It means the ability to empathize with other people, to feel compassion for them, and to put their needs before your own. ‘Evil’ is unable to empathize with others' needs. They are selfish, self-absorbed, and they value themselves before others. For it is written in Proverbs 6:16-19, There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community. Wow, we need to test the spirit and know if it's of God. We have to have spiritual discernment to know the true character of people. Let us not be deceived by anyone. For it is written in Ephesians 5:5-9, For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person--such a person is an idolater--has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's wrath comes on those who are disobedient. Therefore do not be partners with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth). Our Heavenly Father's instructions are getting wisdom and understanding, " His Will and His Way." For it is written in Proverbs 4:5-15, Get wisdom, get understanding; do not forget my words or turn away from them. Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you; love her, and she will watch over you. The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding. Cherish her, and she will exalt you; embrace her, and she will honor you. She will give you a garland to grace your head and present you with a glorious crown." Listen, my son, accept what I say, and the years of your life will be many. I instruct you in the way of wisdom and lead you along straight paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble. Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life. Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evildoers. Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way. Are you listening to the sound of the "Holy Spirit?" Abba Father, we obey your word and we pray for our families and friends. We're praying for one another, the Nation and Nations. We're praying for Israel, the leaders and our enemies. We're praying for healing on the earth for the people. We're trusting you in everything. Amen !  Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/

Scriptures to Meditate on this week - "It's the Blood"!

Scriptures to Meditate on this week -  "It's the Blood"! I woke up this morning speaking "It's the Blood". Let us get some understanding first, whenever you hear that you're covered by the blood of Jesus Christ, it means that your debt to sin has been paid and you're forgiven by God. Amen ! We have to understand that humans hold us to the sin or act, but God's mercy and grace has forgiven us, by the "Blood of Jesus Christ". We have to walk by the spirit of truth only! So, we have to show forgiveness and love for one another daily,sometimes just being quiet and pray for one another. That's a command by God to pray for each other. The Word of God has spoken, we all have sin by word, thought, deed or action.Understand that righteousness comes from God only, by faith in Him, not people. For it is written in Romans 3:22-24,This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.Thank you Lord for giving us a second chance by your "Grace." For it is written in 1 John 1:7-9, But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. We're blessed by God for giving us another minute, second, hour, day and another year '2021'. Have you given "Him (God)" thanks for waking you up and starting your day? Some of us may have taken communion on Sunday and that's great. But, let us understand the partakeing of Holy Communion in remembrance of the body and blood of Jesus that was broken and poured out of Jesus Christ at the cross. Taking Holy Communion does not only remind us of his suffering but also shows us the amount of love Jesus had for us who believe in Him. For it is written in Matthew 26:26-28, Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. As I'm growing in the wisdom of God, I have to share the wisdom of "His Word" with the nations. Jesus called Himself “the bread of life,” which means that we’re nourished by Him, we survive because of His Love for us. Bread is a symbol for Jesus’ body and wine as a symbol for His blood. All of us must choose for him or herself. No one can do that for us, it's "Free Will." It is your choice to believe or not. Everyone may not choose to serve Him, but some people need to hear the "Good News" that's why we're to share the gospel with others. Whose Report Will You Believe? For it is written in Joshua 24:15,But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Thank you Lord for "Your Blood." Amen ! Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/

Scriptures to Meditate on this week - The Great Commission !

Scriptures to Meditate on this week - The Great Commission !  For it is written in Proverbs 8:10-12, Choose my instruction instead of silver, knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare with her. “I, wisdom, dwell together with prudence; I possess knowledge and discretion." Listen to what God has called and told us to do and be led by the Holy Spirit and move forward into 2021 fulfilling " The Great Commission." Let us fulfill the commission that Jesus Christ gave to His followers to go into the world and make disciples of all Nations. For it is written in Matthew 28:18-20, Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Understand that God is with us, He is "Immanuel."God never promised that life would always be "easy." But He did promise this, by His word: that He would be "with us" through it all (good or bad), and He would never leave us. We're the salt on earth and light, moving forward sharing the "Good News" of "Hope" in "Christ Jesus!" You have to awake from sleeping and run your race to share "The Hope and The Good News" with others. For it is written in Matthew 5:13-16,"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot."You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Let us pray together for our families, friends, the sick, the nurses, the doctors, the officers, the front line workers, one another, for Israel, for the nation and nations. Lord, we need your healing power to touch the hearts, minds and spirit of your people. We need to hear from "You Lord" for healing the land, forgive us from turning away from 'Your Word." For it is written in 2 Chronicles 7:14, If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Forgive us from doing things by the worldly system. We walk by faith, not by sight. Amen !   Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/

Scriptures to Meditate on this weekend- New Years message "The Armor!"

Scriptures to Meditate on this weekend- New Years message "The Armor!" (The last message received in 2020 ended with a question. What are you building your foundation on the Word of God or the worldly system ?  If your foundation isn't on the rock moving forward into the new year, it's going to sink.)   This is a New Year's message for 2021, we're on the battlefield. For it is written in Ephesians 6:12, For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. We have been warned by God's Word, are you still sleeping from "2020?" Awake children of God, we're at war. This war is not flesh, it's the power of darkness, it's spiritual forces here on earth. We're not giving the enemy any advantage over our lives or our thoughts (mind), for we are not ignorant of his schemes. Most people don’t realize the inherent power of their thoughts. We know that we're at war in this world and within our minds. For it is written in Romans 12:2, Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. This is the plan and purpose for your life children of God. We have to do the Will of the one who sent us by the Holy Spirit leading us daily. For it is written in Luke 4:18-19, “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me  to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” It's not just on Sunday's or whenever someone is watching us. God is watching us and everything that's happening daily. He is Alpha and Omega. For it is written in (NLT) Revelation 1:8,“I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.”  He is the first and the last, He is the beginning and the end.  For it is written in Proverbs 15:3, The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on the wicked and the good. "Put on the Full Armor of God" first ! Why, because we're on the battlefield daily and we have to be fully dressed for battle. For it is written in Ephesians 6:11-20, Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel,for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. Amen ! Thank you Lord and Savior for the "Word Of Truth!" Others can follow the word at :  http://1spiritualfood.blogspot.com/
