Jesus Is Truth: 6/1/09

* Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd who died on the cross for us - "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep" (John 10:11).
* Jesus Christ is the Great Shepherd who rose from the dead for us - ^"May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen" (Hebrews 13:20-21).
* Jesus Christ is the Chief Shepherd who is coming again for us - "Be shepherds of God's flock that is under your care, serving as overseers—not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not greedy for money, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away" (1 Peter 5:2-4).

Victory does not come from ourselves. It comes from the Lord. It is His gift to us. We must never forget the words of the Apostle Paul: "Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Corinthians 15:57). We are called to walk in the pathway of victory. In 1 Corinthians 10:13,Paul tells us that, when temptation comes our way, God provides "the way of escape." Jesus is "the way." He is the true and living way (John 14:6). We look to Him. He leads us in the pathway of His victory. We take our eyes off Him, and we are dragged down into our own defeat. "Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus" (Hebrews 12:1-2).

There's been a lot of talk of lately whereas some are saying and announcing that America is not a Christian nation to the world. I just viewed a interesting video whereas this was being challenged on quite a scale and forum.

It seems that some would attempt to at all cost choose to magnify there political interests around the world by stating such things.

Maybe some simply classes in history might assist them to clarify just how this nation came to be and was birthed. Maybe a vote of the people, "We The People" might also clarify the situation.

As for clout, and popularity. It seems to me that by denying such truths and realities is a sure way to becoming quite unpopular as time passes. For this is not the Change, that the American people will tolerate.

You see, dir sir. We know what the seeds and roots of this nation are all about. Many of us have great grandaddy's that were born here and out roots go deep into our heritage as a God fearing nation.

Faith That Makes A Difference

Jam 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

Jam 5:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

Jam 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

A Powerful Prayer

Eph 3:14 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Eph 3:15 Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,

Eph 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Eph 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

Eph 3:18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;

Eph 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Eph 3:20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Eph 3:21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

Blessings, in the love of Christ

Mat 8:11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

Mat 8:12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Makes One Wonder...
