Perfect Sacrifice

In the garden of Eden man sinned against God. When he did that sin became transferable to all of us. But our God did not leave us without hope. He was not going to leave us in a fallen state.

Even as He drove man from the garden, God made a way for fallen man to return to Him. Until Jesus was born a series of sacrifices were required. This was just a partial covering of their sins.

Even these were lacking, only the Perfect One could do. The Lord promised this started in Genesis. Abraham was promised that the Saviour would come through him, and that this Saviour would mediate for man. He would be the perfect sacrifice. He would at a future date totally defeat and crush the enemy of man's soul. The Lord made this promise through out The Old Testament.

We have a wonderful Saviour. He suffered for us, He was the perfect One. Jesus made that sacrifice, so that we do not have to die, but may have eternal life. He paid the price for all of man kind. We all must come to understand this for our self and accept Him as our personal Saviour.

Wonderful ways

The Lord works in wonderful ways. I have recently moved to Kansas. Last Friday I went to get my driver license. I was told I needed my birth certificate, and something showing my Kansas address. I have about half my things in a storage unit and could not find my birth certificate where I am living.

So as I arose Saturday to go to the storage unit I ask the Lord to help me find it and to have something arrive in the mail with my address attached with one of those yellow tags the Post Office uses for forwarding. I was preparing to leave when I notice a small box that I had not checked for my birth certificate. I open it and on the top was the certificate. I said a quick thank you Lord and went about the rest of my morning. when the mail arrived there was a notice from the post office notifying me that my change of address was in effect.

This may not seem to be much, but I believe that it is a small example of what the Lord will do for us if we only trust Him. If we let Him he will watch over us, guide our steps, and protect us. He is all seeing, all know, all powerful, what a wonderful Saviour we have. He wants to do things for His children. Think of how we as parents want to do things for our children. We can not compare to what God wants to do for us.

Praise God for all things. Walk in His Light, His Mercy, His Grace. Remember Jesus died for you, remember this and ponder it as you go about your day. Ask for His strength and guidance, He will not fail.

Jer. 29:11

Ponder Jer. 29:11 I Know the plans I have for you "declares the Lord" plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Have we really thought about this verse. Our Lord has a plan for us. Have you turned your life over to Him so that He can work His plan. It takes a complete turning from our old ways. A total commitment. If we do He can work a wonderful thing in us. We will see people saved, people healed. Our country respected again. your family close. He will not fail you.

Ponder and ask Him to reveal to you His plan for you. Listen for an answer, He will answer. He has a plan for us all.

A PRAISE

Yesterday my sister Supernatural Christian received wonderful news from blood work she had done. As her readers know she has lupus. She was suffering from many of the symptoms of the illness. Her blood work came back as being normal except from lack of vitamin D.

The Lord had healed her and the enemy had been trying to make her think it had returned or that she had not had a healing. We as Christian have the power to pray for one another and receive healing. We are told to lay hands on the sick anointing them with oil. We can receive healing from sickness, mental problems, and other problems.

We also yesterday prayed and fasted for a man in Arizona. we have now heard that his test came back as normal after being given a diagnoses of a terminal illness. There were a lot of people that were praying for him near him and here.

This blog today is just to praise our Lord for his wonderful healing power. We need to praise Him in all we do and say. He is our light, our healer, our salvation. PRAISE THE LORD WITH EVERY BREATH

Mark of the beast

I was pondering the Mark of the beast today. How and what it would be. I can not believe that it is a visible mark that we can see.

Most of the people from the America,s and Europe and many from Asia know about the mark, even the unbelievers. Even those that don't believe would understand what it meant and would not take it. I believe that this mark is something that the beast and his demons could see but not us. In this way he could deceive everyone.

If we The Children of God are marked by The Lord the beast would also know this. He would try all he could to remove The Lord's mark from us. If we were to bow down before(worship)the beast then we would be given his mark and not the Lords. If you think that most people would not do this just look at the way many worship their sport heroes, entertainers, etc. We are being prepared for the mark. The beast could come from anywhere, he could be here now and already be worshipped by many.

We must be prepared to resist any temptation to put anything above our Lord. He only is to be worshipped. He only deserves our praise. He is the One Who has already defeated the beast. We need to prepare ourselves daily for the fight.

His Creation

It is a beautiful day, sun shinning, a bit cool, great day for a walk. The kind of day made for enjoying.

Last night on TV there was a program on the universe. I can not understand how any one can look at a day like today and truly believe that all of this came by an accident, a big bang. That by the luck of a few million modules joining that a blade of grass was formed, I can not guess how many modules for a tree, or and animal with any type of brain let alone ours. Science tries to tell us that this is the way it happened.

The Bible tells us a different story. Of the wonderful creation of every thing that is around us. There is to much order in the way nature runs to be random acts. Of course not all scientist agree with the big bang, some actually teach creation. They use science to prove creation. If you can find a book called " scientific creationism" you should read it. It was a text book when I attend Bible collage a few years ago. It was a very good book about the subject.

We were created in Gods image. Not from an ape. We were created to rule and reign over the earth for God. We were to be above all animals. We were to be their keepers, to watch over them. This was what we were suppose to do, before we sinned.

Oh what a wonderful God we have that made all of the universe. All of this was done in just 6 days. Praise The Lord. He is worthy of all our praise.

proving ones self

In my study last night I was reading Daniel. In the first chapters we note that Daniel was being prepared for was ahead of him. He was given a portion of meat from the Kings table, but would not eat of it. This took courage. The king had the power to do with Daniel as he wanted. The Lord was proving Daniel.

We are tested by many things and people. As we overcome these we become stronger in our walk with God. As we walk through these trials we are proved. As with gold, that is proved my heating to remove the impurities, we must be proved my our trials. The enemy will try what ever he feels is our weakest point. He will even send others who call themselves Christians, to inform us that we are not walking in the Light. We must beware of these, The bible tells us that not all who claim to be of The Lord are His. Only you know if your walk is right with the Lord. We need to search ourselves and prove our self.

When we are attacked from within it causes us more harm than from without. I have seen several Churches split because of an attack on a member or even pastor. Many of these attacks were actually self serving for the attacker. In one case the attack was against the pastor. It was not over the believes of the church but a personal attack. As with most of us we have a past before we were saved. He had drank beer before being saved. This was all behind him and he was a man of God.

This pastor to try and avoid a split resigned. The family doing the attacking wanted their son as the pastor. The church did split and the original church ended in failure. The original pastor started a new church at the encouragement of many of those who left the original church and it is still growing.

We as brother and sisters in God need to encourage each other not tear another down. Remember we will be judged by Him Who sees all.
