Seven Beautiful Ways God Relates To You

 The Lord God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you, in his love he will no longer rebuke you for your sin, 
but he will rejoice over you with singing.

Zephaniah 3:17

I love thinking out how God relates to we who are mere mortals, even as He is the Holy, Almighty, Eternal Exalted God that created the Universe, including every Atom. Even though He designed it perfectly for all life, and sustains it every second of every moment of every hour of every day, He continually wishes to let us know how much He wants to relate to you and me.  Oddly enough we see some really great information that comes from an Old Testament Prophet named Zephaniah. 

Check this out. Here are seven ways that God relates to you and me that I find interesting, and I find very comforting and exciting:

  1.  First, with all the craziness that is going on in the world today, we see, "The Lord God IS." Just the fact that God IS makes it clear that we are not alone. 
  2. Second, God has chosen us. "The Lord God is WITH US!" This is really vital, God is not just some Universe out there, God is far greater. God decided that He exist to abide with you and me in a relationship. By the way, we Christ Followers know that we get this relationship through faith in Jesus the Messiah.
  3. Third, He is a "Mighty Warrior."  This tells us God is our protector. He has fought the greatest eternal battle, as He conquered the most evil one himself, through The Christ of The Cross!
  4.  Fourth, He "saves us!"  He saves us from hell! He saves us from death! He saves us from the grave! He saves us by bringing us out of The Kingdom of Darkness into His Kingdom of Light and life! He saves us from being slaves to sin!
  5. Fifth, God is "delighted" in you and in me. In other words, God gets joy just knowing each of us!  WOW! Us having a relationship with God makes God joy filled!
  6.  Sixth, even though we have broken God's law (we have sinned,) He loves us enough, not to rebuke us or punish us for our sin.  That is where the salvation comes from. Hallelujah!
  7.  Seventh, God "rejoices over" us "with singing! Now, it's one thing for us to sing Praise Songs, but it's amazing that God sings a Praise Song over we who are His people.
Let these word comfort you, and let them help you have a blessed 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!'
