Gift

How wonderful!

Just by reading and hearing God's advice, you are already a blessing. Don't waste time, put this gift into practice in your life. This was revealed to the Apostle John, Jesus' beloved one. Guard the Word in your heart and let no one take it from you. Be a beloved one also, for all eternity.

"Blessed is he that reads, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is near."

Revelation 1:3

Home

"Let us go to the sanctuary of the Lord; let us worship at his footstool. Arise, O Lord, and enter your resting place, along with the Ark, the symbol of your power.

May your priests be clothed in godliness; may your loyal servants sing for joy."

Psalm 132:7-9

NOTE: Today the Ark is the Holy Spirit living in us, making us strong and firm; unshakeable.

Blood

It happened at the first Passover celebrated by the Hebrew people in Egypt. At the eating of the lamb and the painting of their doorposts with blood, their deliverance from slavery by the hand of God was seen. The Angel of Death passed from house to house - except from the houses of those who were obedient to the Word.

The Lord Jesus came to the world as the Lamb of God. He came to save and to free the captives of the devil. He determined the salvation and freedom for all. Those who accept Him as Lord are covered by His blood, which is able to deliver them from eternal death. Since that sacrifice, those who are enslaved and oppressed by devil will only be free if they have the mark of the Son’s blood imprinted on their hearts. Death is sweeping across the land and leading souls to eternal death; and you friend, do you have the mark of the blood?

"For the Lord will pass through to strike the Egyptians, and when he sees the blood on the lintel and on both doorposts, the LORD will pass over the door and will not allow the destroyer to enter your houses to strike you." Exodus 12:23

NOTE: Do not live by appearance, only looking to please other; look carefully, He said: "on both doorposts," - inside and outside the door - which means that you need to have a heart of God.

The Way

"Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for I trust in You; teach me the way in which I should walk, for to You I lift up my soul."

Psalm 143:8

When we focus on the reasoning of this prayer we can capture the spirit of trust and faith of the psalmist better. Total dependence on the direction from the Spirit of God. But one must be attentive to His voice to know the attitude that he should take every day. If we obey this direction, we will succeed in everything that we do; and He will be honoured.

Presence

"By day the Lord went ahead of them in a column of smoke to lead them on their way. By night he went ahead of them in a column of fire to give them light so that they could travel by day or by night." Exodus 13:21

God walked with the people in the desert. Today, He continues walking with us on our path. His desire in the past is the same as today: to live with us.

In the past, His presence was seen when they saw the cloud. The cloud today is His Spirit. Not in heaven, but in the hearts of those who surrender to His Son Jesus.

Those who have the Spirit have the Fire of the Spirit, burning and pushing them to help those who desire to leave the slavery of Egypt.

Dependence

Sorry for the delay; I was on a missionary trip and when I arrived, there was a problem with the Internet.

I always say this passage to my God, when I am travelling, remaining totally in His hands.

"The Lord will watch over your going out and your coming in, both now and forever." Psalm 121:8

Beauty

We know of a rose in Israel that is born in a marsh, mud or sewage. But even so, it survives the filth and becomes a beautiful rose, with a colour that is so red, it stands out among the rest.

This is how the children of God should be, to make a difference in this dirty, chaotic world.
"I am the rose of Sharon, the lily of the valleys."

Song of Solomon 2:1
