Sep 24_2012 John 18
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in John 18. I hope you all had a great weekend. Let's endeavor to move forward sharing God's Word and living a blameless life. We know that Jesus paid the full price for our sin. Does this mean we should breeze through this life in this world with no problems unscathed? Jesus made this very clear when Pilate questioned him about being a king of this world.;“36 Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.”” John 15:5, English Standard Version (ESV). So does this mean we don't care what happens on Earth until Jesus gathers us to his kingdom? I think not, we are at war with the rulers of this world. We need to be prepared to serve our awesome God. Our Lord Jesus Christ gave his life so that we would be able to love and serve him. “10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.” Ephesians 6:10-12 English Standard Version (ESV). God tells us to be strong as we stand with the Holy Spirit against the enemies of Jesus. Something that saints have been unwilling to do in recent years. I read about a man being arrested because as he read Romans out loud, a policeman felt he was personally being attacked. I read of a young schoolboy being humiliated for bowing his head to ask Jesus to bless his lunch. A few Atheist are responsible for getting Jesus name kicked out of prayer in the military. We can't post the ten commandments in courthouses in the U.S. I wonder why have we become so weak in our faith that we are afraid to stand up for our God? If we can't do anything else share the Feast. Then we may have some just workmen rightly dividing the Word of God. “14 Remind them of these things, and charge them before God not to quarrel about words, which does no good, but only ruins the hearers. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:14-15 ESV. We cannot present ourselves approved without prayer and studying in God's holy Word. All things are possible through our God. Through the Feast in God's word our faith grows. “16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.” Romans 10:16-17 ESV. Please share the love of God, and share faith by sharing the word of God. Keep the first thing first! That is salvation through the blood of the lamb, Jesus. “Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.” Hebrews 10:35-36 ESV. Let's keep sharing His love.

The Feast
Mon, September 24, 2012, John 18, - “Christ taken in the garden. (1-12) Christ before Annas and Caiaphas. (13-27) Christ before Pilate. (28-40)“ – Matthew Henry Concise

Never never 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
