Endure temptation!

 ”Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.“

‭‭James‬ ‭1‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭

We will all be tempted by either our own fleshly desires or by Satan or by a combination of both. Never think God tempts you for we are told in these verses he doesn’t! We also need to know we can overcome any temptation by the power of the Holy Spirit that lives inside those who have trusted Jesus as Lord and Savior! 

Be blessed by the Lord and endure those temptations for the reward is great!

Wrath

 ”For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,“

‭‭I Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭9‬ ‭

Be thankful this day for God did not appoint those who follow Jesus to His wrath but to get salvation!!! Jesus took our wrath on the cross! Thank you Lord!!! Unfortunately those who chose not to follow Jesus as Lord and Savior are still headed for the wrath of God…pray for them to come to the knowledge that Jesus is Savior before it is to late!!!

Same!

 ”Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.“

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13‬:‭8‬ ‭

God is Holy, Perfect, and is always right. He never changes. Be thankful our God is always the same unlike us who are all over the place!!!

Search me!

 ”Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.“

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭139‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭

We all need to get to the point in life where we ask God to search us and remove any sin which is in us. The only way God will remove it is through the shed blood of Jesus. You must be covered by put faith in Him as Lord and Savior! Once you have done that God will lead you into everlasting life with Him!!!  Praise the Lord….ask Him to search you now!

Lord and King

 ”These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for He is Lord of Lords and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.”“

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭17‬:‭14‬ ‭

A reminder for us today that the world is against Jesus and His followers but that don’t change the fact of Him being Lord of Lords and King of Kings!!! He is over all…praise Him and give Him all the glory!!!!

In everything!

 ”Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.“

‭‭I Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬-‭18

Great verse to think upon. “In everything”…good and bad…give Thanks to God for He has a purpose for it all! “This is the will of God”…. Remember that it’s all about Him not us.

Rejoice always, pray….God’s is good not matter what so rejoice and pray staying in constant contact with the One who loves you most! 

Oh what great verses…chew on them today!!!
