Great multitude!

 “After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭7‬:‭9‬ ‭

What a glimpse we have here of what heaven will be like. Every nation, tribe, people, and language standing before God because of  what Jesus did for them upon the cross! Praise the Lord! May we learn from this to love others as Jesus loves all!!!

Steadfast

 In a biblical context, "steadfastness" signifies unwavering faith, firm resolve, and enduring commitment to God and His teachings, often used in the context of enduring trials and remaining faithful. 

“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭26‬:‭3‬ ‭

Are you in peace? It all depends where your mind is….on God and His Word or the things of the world. Stay steadfast on Jesus and have perfect peace it is worth everything to do so!

God’s purpose!

 “Then Job answered the Lord and said: “I know that You can do everything, And that no purpose of Yours can be withheld from You.”

‭‭Job‬ ‭42‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭

It is important for us to remember two things from these verses. The first is God can do everything. He is in complete control. Never forget that when it seems all is going crazy! Second, all of God’s purposes will be done. You can be a part or refuse which is not wise! For example He may lay on your heart to tell somebody about Jesus…you can and reap the blessings or you can refuse and lose the blessings and you have disobeyed God! But God will bring someone to share the gospel with that person if it is God’s purpose!!!

May we remember these two things and be obedient to God!

Don’t be foolish!

Continuing from yesterdays verses:

 “Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭17‬ ‭

What is God’s will? Read your Bible and find out but to put it simply…Love God, Love others, share the gospel! 

Now are you doing all 3? If not your being foolish!

Use of time.

 “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭15‬-‭16‬ ‭

Chew on this today….how are you using your time…according to God not you? Are you using it wisely serving the Lord or foolishly on selfish desires?

Choose wisely my friends for we will answer to God!

Abundance of things.

 “And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.””

‭‭Luke‬ ‭12‬:‭15‬ ‭

Remember this today…the world teaches you it is all about how much you can get to make you happy! God says that true life is NOT found in material things but being in Jesus Christ!!

Is this you???
