The LIVING LORD #STANDS

#Inflated or #Deflated are terms we have heard on every newscast lately addressing the football’s air pressure.  This brings back my thoughts to rules, laws, standards of any game or sport or contest.  There has to be an official to make the appropriate call according to the rules of the game which can be challenged by a review/replay in football.  How does this work with our game plan for living our life?  Have you seen people totally deflated/depressed or others arrogantly puffed/ inflated with self importance? We are to ‘stand guard at our station to keep watch for God’s Word’ just like Habakkuk.  Hab. 2:4 “Behold for the proud one , His soul is not right within him; but the righteous will live by his faith.” Bible speaks of “WOE” which is a miserable state.  “Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity….Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil..”  Is.5:18-22  The Living Lord is the head official for our game of life and He already has an instant review….  HIS PREVIOUS CALL STANDS!       ISAIAH 3:13  “THE LORD STANDS UP TO JUDGE THE PEOPLE” 

Look At The Fields

      19821128 Look At The Fields - Rev. Tommy Jones

After a two minute trip down #memorylane, Brother Tommy takes us through the reasons we need to reach out to those around us with the love of Jesus Christ.  Who still has not heard about the saving Grace of the death and resurrection of Jesus?  What happens to a ripe field that does not get harvested?  The numbers quoted in this lesson are from 1982, but the opportunities are only growing.  Why aren’t there more harvesters?  What are you doing to harvest?  What is “Pray, give, and go’?

The LIVING GOD #DIRECTS

Are you #driving yourself #faster and faster, yet always #behind?  In our fast-paced #society, are you on a purposeful path or just trying to get to the next quick fix?  A champion runner, Oswald Chambers said, “Never run before God gives you His direction”   First we have to ASK GOD as in Ps.143:8 “Show me the way to go, for to you I entrust my life  No one likes to ask for directions when traveling, but all of us need instruction on long uncharted paths.  “I know, O LORD, that a man’s way is not in himself; nor is it in a man who walks to direct his steps.  Correct me LORD” Jer.10:23 “The mind of man plans his way, but the LORD DIRECTS his steps  Prov. 16:9  “Now may our God and Father Himself and Jesus our Lord DIRECT OUR WAY to you and may the Lord cause you to increase and abound in love for one another, and for all men, just as we also do for you; so that He may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints” 1 Thess.3:11-13  Drive safely on your life’s journey following true Heavenly Directions to that great meeting!

Deserted Harps

The LIVING GOD #LIBERTY

While my children were growing up, many a day, they heard me say, “There is #liberty in #law!”  Their quick reply, “I know Mom.” (they didn’t want to hear another explanation such as the beloved pets have safety perimeters and so do you)   God has given us the freedom to choose His laws or run amuck.  Take a look around today!  James 1:25 “One who looks intently at the perfect law, the LAW OF LIBERTY, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man shall be blessed in what he does.”  Do we test our boundaries from time to time and slip/slide through days of wandering through the fog of distress?  God has made a way of LIBERATION, if we choose..”Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the LORD.  HE WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON him; …GOD will abundantly PARDON” Isaiah 55:7  GOD brings good news to the afflicted and brokenhearted and PROCLAIMS  LIBERTY to captives and freedom to prisoners..Is 61:1  “Now the LORD is the SPIRIT; where the SPIRIT of the LORD IS, THERE IS LIBERTY.”  2 Cor.3:17
