I AM SAYS "I AM FOR YOU."

"God is for me."  Psalm 56: 9b
It is difficult for we who journey together on this earth to fully grasp the full meaning of this  delightful phrase,

"God is for me:"
But let's try to grasp it anyway:
  • He was "for us" before the worlds were made.
  • He was "for us," or He would not have given His well-beloved Son.
  • He was "for us" when He sacrificed His Only-begotten, and laid the full weight of His wrath upon Him—He was "for us," though for a while He forsook Him;
  • He was "for us," when we were ruined by the rebellion and fall of our ancient ancestors, Adam and Eve —He loved us, nevertheless.
  • He was "for us," when we were rebels against Him, turned away from Him and did not believe.  He drew us to Himself by the power of the Holy Spirit.
  • He was for us when He gave us the glorious opportunity to "not perish but have eternal life," if we would only believe in His Son.
  • He was "for us," or He would not have brought us humbly to seek His face.
  • He has been "for us" in many struggles we have encountered (or will encounter.)  Yes in, all kinds  of challenges, we have been tempted inside and out —how could we have gained the strength to carry on, to this hour, if He had not been "for us"? 
  • He is "for us," with all the infinity of His being; with all the omnipotence of His love; with all the infallibility of His wisdom; arrayed in all His divine attributes,
  • He is "for us,"—eternally and absolutely "for us".   And because He is "for us," a  short, secret, simple, sincere, specific prayer, uttered by us in a whisper, will always be heard from His Throne on High. "When I cry unto YOU, then shall my enemies be turned back." (This is especially true of the enemy of our souls.) 

I am not talking about an uncertain hope, but a well grounded experiential assurance—"this I know." I will direct my prayer unto THE ALMIGHTY ONE who is for me. I will look to Heaven (where ever Heaven may be)  for the answer(s). I have faith that it will come and it indeed does come: When my enemies (or my "demons"  of Spiritual warfare,  mental battles, physical battles, addictions, temptations, trials  and sins come against me) they are defeated... one day at a time... one step at a time...in one moment of a time... one challenge at a time, as I surrender to my Creator who makes me a new creation and sustains me. Out of my most weak moments He grace provides me with strength and His grace is sufficient for me, even when I fall.   "For God is for me," each new day as we journey together and as I surrender to HIM.

 O Christ Follower, "Put on the full armor of  God" today and each day. "Deny yourself.  Take up the Cross" and follow Jesus today and each new day.  "Present your body as a living sacrifice" (by faith) to Him today and each new day.  Commit your life, with all its challenges, each new day, to the ONE who is for you!  Then you will experience the grace and power of  the King of kings and Lord of lords, who is I AM!

Think about how much better off you are with The God who is for you leading, guiding and directing your daily journey.  Yes... just slow down and take time to think about what I am saying. Think about how sure your cause is when it is pleaded by such an Advocate, like Jesus.  Think about what it is like when you walk with the LORD in the light of His WORD.  Think about what this means  "If God be for y-o-u, who can be against you?" One thing is for certain, and you can absolutely count on it being true...

Y-O-U   ARE   NOT   ALONE!



Now Be Blessed 2-day... Especially 2-day ... And each new day...

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
