03/08          Matthew 16:27-28

27 For the Son of Man will come with his angels in the glory of his Father and will judge all people according to their deeds. 28 And I tell you the truth, some standing here right now will not die before they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”

SALVATION

Yes we will be saved and no we will not stand in the judgment of the lost.  Instead our judgment will be as to our work as His children-how we sacrificed, how we loved and what we did to least and the lowliest. Kingdom value is the ruling guideline. We will be judged according to what sort of life we have led as a child of the Lord. 

03/07          Matthew 16:25-26

25 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. 26 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? 

VALUE

Kingdom value is different than worldly value.  People count with Jesus.  Love one another is a real important value.  Listen to Jesus, do what He says and be about the Father’s business.  Praise the Lord for explaining Kingdom values. 

03/06          Ephesians 6:13

13 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 

TROUBLE

In life we have trouble.  Sometimes that trouble is caused by the evil one.  When you are fighting temptation and evil only God can intervene and stand against evil.  The Lord rebuke evil-the Lord rebuke you. 

03/05          John 17:3

3 And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.

KNOW

We are called to know the Lord.  He is searching for us.  His call to us is a call to surrender and accept His grace gift of salvation.  All have sinned and fallen short and the Lord offers forgiveness for our sin and acceptance into a relationship with Him in Jesus Christ.  Ask Christ into your heart and He come and create in you a new heart and a Godly life-Life like the Father’s life-eternal life.  Jesus will save you.  Ask Him. 

03/04          John 16:33

33 I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”

BELIEVE

Believe in Jesus.  This is step one in living a victorious life.  You will need to understand that you cannot deal with spiritual matters in the flesh.  You must instead let Jesus take the lead and He will do it.  He is always victorious.  Life is troubled and hard but Jesus keeps us focused on the long-game in a world of vanishing values. 

03/03          1 Corinthians 10:13

13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. 

LAST

How can I last in the face of temptation as a faithful Christian in a sinful society? Recognize that everyone has the same temptation to sin and it is a choice by you as to whether you sin or not. You cannot deal with it in your own strength, but you must submit yourself to Christ for Him to deal with your temptation.  He is always victorious. 

03/02          1 John 5:4

4 For every child of God defeats this evil world, and we achieve this victory through our faith. 

HARD

It’s hard to change.  It’s hard to trust.  We begin one step at a time.  We fail-we succeed.  We are still part of the Family of God.  Christ is with us in success and in failure.  Life is fast and we are slow.  To soon ignorant and to slow to change.  Lord help us with our sin hardened life styles. 

03/01          Deuteronomy 20:4

4 For the LORD your God is going with you! He will fight for you against your enemies, and he will give you victory!’ 

HE

The Lord, HE will fight for you.  He will face the enemy and give you the victory.  Victory is in the Lord and His power and not in ourselves.  We can do nothing especially against the powers and principalities of the air.  Only Jesus can lead in victory.  Trust in Him. He is the Lord. 

02/28          1 Peter 2:24

24 He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds you are healed.

HEALED

When we come to Jesus we are healed of our sin problem.  We are no longer dead in our trespasses and sin, we are alive in Christ Jesus.  He is our Lord and Savior and H will never leave us.  Jesus is Lord. 

02/27          Psalm 23:1

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I have all that I need. 

ALL

He is the Only God.  He is Lord. He is amazing for His grace, love and faithfulness to us.  He is alive this very moment and forever.  Our Lord Jesus is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.  He will never change on us.  He loved so much that He willingly went to the cross and died for our sin.  He is Love and He cares for us.
