Our Feast is in God’s Word!


Our Feast is in God’s Word!

  June 13, 2013 – Esther 1
 
 
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in Esther 1; King Ahasuerus hosts a lavish feast for all his officials and servants. The kings wife Vashti refuses to to attend the feast. The king decrees that Vashti is never again to come before him and she is to be replaced; 21 This advice pleased the king and the princes, and the king did as Memucan proposed. 22 He sent letters to all the royal provinces, to every province in its own script and to every people in its own language, that every man be master in his own household and speak according to the language of his people.  Esther 1:21-22 English Standard Version (ESV).  As Christians would we tear our marriage up when our spouse disagrees with us?  Certainly  not Jesus tells us that we and our spouse are one flesh.   God never wanted man and woman to divorce.  So what should we do and how should we act when we disagree with our spouse?[Hearing and Doing the Word] Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;” James 1:19 ESV.  The enemy is the devil and God’s Word tells us how to handle our anguish; “Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.” Proverbs 19:11 ESV.  This is just one more reason we Feast together.
 
Jesus wants you?  Do you hear that small voice calling; sinner com home?  Do you want to choose good over evil? If the answer is yes please click the following link;
 
 
This Feast belongs to Jesus you may share it anywhere with any one! 
 
Overview of Esther; We find in this book, that even those Jews who were scattered in the province of the heathen, were taken care of, and were wonderfully preserved, when threatened with destruction. Though the name of God be not in this book, the finger of God is shown by minute events for the bringing about his people's deliverance. This history comes in between (Ezra 6 and Ezra 7)”. – Matthew Henry Concise

Why and what should we do?

June 12, 2013 – II Corinthians 12 & 13

 
 
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue the Feast in II Corinthians 12 & 13.  What a beautiful affection Paul has expressed for the Corinthians as he departs.  14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” II Corinthians 13:14 ESV.  This is the way I would like to greet everyone I know with at the end of the day.  Unfortunately not everybody I know has accepted Jesus. Not only would they all not appreciate the sentiment, some would laugh or make fun of god.  Why do you think this is?  [The Law of the Lord Is Perfect] [To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.] The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Psalm 19:1-2 ESV.” 1 Kings 13:17-19 ESV.  The Law of the Lord Is Perfect so let me ask again why would they laugh or make Jesus the brunt of their joke?  Satan has deadened our senses to God’s Word with modern media.  Most television shows and advertisements promote promiscuity; “The “Happy Crowd” drinks this brand of alcohol.  Beautiful people stay here when they come to gamble.  If you don’t look sexually perfect and happy just buy one of these and it will be alright!”   Saint’s these are just a few of the problems or traps people who don’t want to hear about Jesus are lured into.  I can tell you why!  People whose deeds are evil love darkness. (see John 3:19).  Their hearts are continually evil. (see Ecclesiastes 9:3)  What does this mean for us?  We need to pray and read God’s word every day.  Let our lights shine and carry the gospel as far and long as we are able.
This excerpt is from; THE HOLY SPIRIT IS CALLING        06/11/13 # 602
Matthew 5:13-16 (New International Version) 
13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. 14 "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. 
Without salt you cannot live.   Salt is essential for life so is Christ Jesus, for without Him we do not live, with Him we have eternal life.  We as Christians need to be telling the world about Jesus, so go out and let the light of Jesus shine.

17 for it was said to me by the word of the Lord, ‘You shall neither eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by the way that you came.’” 18 And he said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house that he may eat bread and drink water.’” But he lied to him. 19 So he went back with him and ate bread in his house and drank water.” 1 Kings 13:17-19 ESV.

June 11, 2013 – II Corinthians 11

 
 
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue the Feast in II Corinthians 11.  I don’t think that people are much different today than Paul of the Corinthians.  We have many temptations that would keep us from reading the word.  Though the people are the same, the temptations are magnified.  We have many false teachers today going door to door.  12 And what I am doing I will continue to do, in order to undermine the claim of those who would like to claim that in their boasted mission they work on the same terms as we do. 13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds” II Corinthians.  11:12-15 ESV.  Our job as ambassadors for Jesus is harder than ever.   I know even some of my friends which portray themselves as Christian, will spend their summer at the river drinking.  It’s no wonder watch television; all the “FUN” people fornicate and/or get drunk.  We must listen to the whole Word of God in order not to be fooled.  Remember these prophets; “17 for it was said to me by the word of the Lord, ‘You shall neither eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by the way that you came.’” 18 And he said to him, “I also am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the Lord, saying, ‘Bring him back with you into your house that he may eat bread and drink water.’” But he lied to him. 19 So he went back with him and ate bread in his house and drank water.” 1 Kings 13:17-19 ESV.  The true prophet of God was fooled by another so called prophet of god.  There are many people who claim to be men of God.  If you let them tell you what God’s Word says, you only know what they tell you.  If you read the whole Word of God, then you will know what Jesus says.
