WHOSE REPORT WILL YOU BELIEVE?

Great blessings belong to those who don’t listen to evil advice, who don’t live like sinners, and who don’t join those who make fun of God. Instead, they love The Lord’s Teachings and think about them day and night. So they grow strong, like a tree planted by a stream, a tree that produces fruit when it should and has leaves that never fall. Everything they do is successful.
Psalm 1:1-3 (ERV)

In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa developed a serious foot disease. Yet even with the severity of his disease, he did not seek The Lord’s Help but turned only to his physicians. So he died in the forty-first year of his reign.
II Chronicles 16:12-13 (NLT)

Lord although He had done so many signs before them, they did not believe in Him, that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has The Arm of The Lord been revealed?”
John 12:37-38 (NKJV)

What then? If some did not believe or were unfaithful to God, their lack of belief will not nullify and make invalid the faithfulness of God and His Word, will it? Certainly not! Let God be found true (as He will be), though every person be found a liar, just as it is written in Scripture, “That You May Be Justified In Your Words, And Prevail When You Are Judged (by sinful men).”
Romans 3:3-4 (AMP)

HAPPY INAUGURATION DAY!

First, I tell you to pray for all people. Ask God for the things people need, and be thankful to Him. You should pray for kings and for all who have authority. Pray for the leaders so that we can have quiet and peaceful lives, lives full of worship and respect for God.
I Timothy 2:1-2 (ICB)

Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in positions of authority have been placed there by God. So anyone who rebels against authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and they will be punished.
Romans 13:1-2 (NLT)

HAVE YOU GONE FISHING?

Jesus said to them, “Come, follow Me, and I will make you a different kind of fishermen. You will bring people, not fish.”
Matthew 4:19 (ERV)

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in The Name of The Father and The Son and The Holy Spirit.”
Matthew 28:19 (NLT)

And then He told them, “God into all the world and preach The Good News to everyone.”
Mark 16:15 (NLT)

Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back, let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.
James 5:19-20 (NKJV)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Yes, You have been with me from birth; from my mother’s womb You have cared for me. No wonder I am always praising you!
Psalm 71:6 (NLT)

Teach us to use wisely all the time we have.
Psalm 90:12 (CEV)

“I will give My followers a long life and show them My Power to save.”
Psalm 91:16 (ERV)

WHOSE APPROVAL DO YOU SEEK?

God was pleased to trust us with His Message. We didn’t speak to please people, but to please God who knows our motives.
I Thessalonians 2:4 (CEV)

Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant.
Galatians 1:10 (NLT)

No wonder you can’t believe! For you gladly honor each other, but you don’t care about the honor that comes from The One who alone is God.
John 5:44 (NLT)

HAPPY MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY!

“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I tell you, love your enemies. Pray for those who treat you badly. If you do this, you will be children who are truly like your Father in heaven. He lets the sun rise for all people, whether they are good or bad. He sends rain to those who do right and to those who do wrong.

If you love only those who love you, why should you get a reward for that? Even the tax collectors do that. And if you are nice only to your friends, you are no better than anyone else. Even the people who don’t know God are nice to their friends. What I Am saying is that you must be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.”
Matthew 5:43-48 (ERV)

BLOW THE TRUMPET IN ZION!

And I shall send forth My angeles with the sound of a mighty trumpet blast, and they shall gather My chosen ones from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven.

WHO IS JESUS?

Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I Am The Door of the sheep.”

Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My Chosen One in whom My Soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.
Isaiah 42:1 (AMP)

May you have loving favor and peace from Jesus Christ Who is Faithful in telling The Truth. Jesus Christ is The First to be raised from the dead. He is The Head over all the kings of the earth. He is The One Who loves us and has set us free from our sins by His Blood.
Revelation 1:5 (NLV)

When I saw Him, I fell at His Feet as though dead. And He placed His Right Hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid; I Am The First and The Last” (absolute Deity, The Son Of God).
Revelation 1:17 (AMP)

This certain hope of being saved is a strong trustworthy anchor for our souls, connecting us with God Himself behind the sacred curtains of heaven, where Christ has gone ahead to plead for us from His position as our High Priest, with the honor and rank of Melchizedek.
Hebrews 6:19-20 (TLB)

HAVE YOU FALLEN FROM GRACE?

Be careful than no one fails to get God’s Grace. Be careful that no one loses their faith and becomes like a bitter weed growing among you. Someone like that can ruin your whole group.
Hebrews 12:15 (ERV)

The whole law is made complete in this one command: “Love your neighbor the same as you love yourself.”
Galatians 5:14 (ERV)

For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ!  You have fallen away from God’s Grace.

Galatians 5:4   (NLT)
