7th Year 11-12 Edition 3 – Jos 22
l The Feast l
August 14_2012 Joshua 22
Dear Saints,
Today we will prayerfully continue our Feast in Joshua 22. Joshua gives the Israelite s good advice. It seems that it is not good enough to have God's commandment. To be successful in a relationship with God you need to do the commandment. “5 Only be very careful to observe the commandment and the law that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways and to keep his commandments and to cling to him and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Joshua 22:5 English Standard Version (ESV). Now we've looked at the fact that God never changes. There are many people who call them Christians. Not all of them would consider doing what Jesus said was the greatest commandment of all. “36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” 37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”” Matthew 22:36-40 (ESV). It is so very important to our relationship with Jesus. Each Saint must ask themselves; “Am I a doer of the Word or a hearer only? “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.“ James 1:22 (ESV). Jesus did his part, He lived a sinless life then was sacrificed for all sin. Jesus overcame death when he raised from the tomb. To trust Jesus in a personal relationship, we must be doers of the Word. It really is a personal choice. Ask yourself, am I doing the commandment that all believers must do? Only you can answer that question and only you can pose it to yourself. “[To the Church in Laodicea] “And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: ‘The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God's creation. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.” Revelation 3:14,20 ESV. Let's keep and nourish our personal relationship with Jesus. Let your actions be your testimony. Then we can continue to keep the first thing first. That is salvation through the blood of Jesus.

The Feast
Tue, August 14, 2012, Joshua 22, - “Reuben and Gad, with the half tribe of Manasseh, dismissed to their homes. (1-9) They build an altar of testimony, The congregation offended thereat. (10-20) The answer of the Reubenites. (21-29) The children of Israel satisfied. (30-34)“ – Matthew Henry Concise
Don’t get caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship. Our salvation depends completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his life to pay in full for our sin, when we repent and accept Jesus. He will come to get every Saint; “…But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” Matthew 24:36. We are building our relationship with Jesus right now, do not wait while you try to change anything.
God Bless you,
Brother Mike
