Only One Savior!
”“You are My witnesses,” says the Lord, “And My servant whom I have chosen, That you may know and believe Me, And understand that I am He. Before Me there was no God formed, Nor shall there be after Me. I, even I, am the Lord, And besides Me there is no savior.“
Isaiah 43:10-11
The Bible is clear there is only One Savior! God has chosen His followers to be witnesses of this Savior. Are we being obedient in proclaiming Him to all we have the opportunity to do so? Why or why not? Remember we will stand before Him one day and give an account of what we have or have not done for Him. May we do that rejoicing not ashamed!

Fight, finish, faith
”I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.“
II Timothy 4:7
One day this earthly life will come to an end. Will we like Paul be able to say the same thing as written in this verse? This is to be our life as followers of Jesus. Keep fighting, finish the race, and keep the faith. It will be worth every second when we finally see Jesus face to face!

Words are proof!
”A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”“
Matthew 12:35-37
According to God’s word what is in your heart will come out of your mouth and is proof of where you stand with Him. Will your words justify you as a child of His or will the condem you as a child of the world? Chew on that today?

Put on battle uniform!
”above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—“
Ephesians 6:16-18
As you start out the day once again put on your battle uniform! We are in a battle everyday with the devil as he walks your perimeter to find a weak point to get in and try to destroy you! Be ready to fight with your sword…the word of God and thus bring honor and glory to our Lord!

Some times we are to judge!
Something to chew on here:
JUDGE ME NOT?...

WE ARE REQUIRED TO:
Judge with a righteous judgement: [John 7:24]
Judge all things: [John 7:24]
Judge sin within the church: [1 Corinthians
2:15-16]
Judge matters between the brethren:
[1 Corinthians 6:5]
Judge preaching: [1 Corinthians 14:29]
Judge, false spirits and those who preach and teach counterfeit gospels and false doctrines:
[2 Corinthians 11:1-4]
Judge the works and workers of darkness:
[Ephesians 5:11]
Judge false prophets and false apostles: [2

He is your life!
”I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days; and that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give them.”“
Deuteronomy 30:19-20
As Moses here addressed the new generation who was about to go into the promise land he wanted to remind them not to wander off to the blessings God was giving them but to remain faithful to the ONE who is life itself…..God!
We must also be careful not to worship or make an idol out of the blessings God has given us and keep our focus on the life God has called us too….HIMSELF!
