Dec 28_2012 1 Kings 3





Dear  Saints,

Thank you for sharing the Feast.  Today we prayerfully read in, 1 Kings 3.  Solomon’s marries the Pharaoh’s daughter.  In his vision, Solomon remembers king David walked with God in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart. His prayer for wisdom pleased God. The judgment of Solomon, concerning the fate of a child;”23 Then the king said, “The one says, ‘This is my son that is alive, and your son is dead’; and the other says, ‘No; but your son is dead, and my son is the living one.’” 24 And the king said, “Bring me a sword.” So a sword was brought before the king. 25 And the king said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one and half to the other.” 26 Then the woman whose son was alive said to the king, because her heart yearned for her son, “Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and by no means put him to death.” But the other said, “He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him.” 27 Then the king answered and said, “Give the living child to the first woman, and by no means put him to death; she is his mother.” 28 And all Israel heard of the judgment that the king had rendered, and they stood in awe of the king, because they perceived that the wisdom of God was in him to do justice.  1 Kings 3:23:28.  English Standard Version (ESV).   God asks you what you want in life when he offers you salvation.  Do you want things of this world or the wisdom to walk with God in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart?  Just remember that God is not willing that any should perish, he wants all people to come to Him through Jesus for Salvation. “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28 ESV.  Think about it are you really giving anything up to walk with Jesus?  You get rest in this life, a life that you cannot keep anyway.   In return for walking with God you get life that you cannot lose, everlasting life in God’s kingdom.  Let’s keep the first thing first. That is the gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus.  Walk with Jesus and share his love.

CHRISTIAN LIVING SERIES
SCRIPTURE: I PETER 1:
17 You call out to God for help and he helps—he’s a good Father that way. But don’t forget, he’s also a responsible Father, and won’t let you get by with sloppy living. Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God.
18 It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in.
19 He paid with Christ’s sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb.
20 And this was no afterthought. Even though it has only lately—at the end of the ages—become public knowledge, God always knew he was going to do this for you.
21 It’s because of this sacrificed Messiah, whom God then raised from the dead and glorified, that you trust God, that you know you have a future in God.
22 Now that you’ve cleaned up your lives by following the truth, love one another as if your lives depended on it.
23 Your new life is not like your old life. Your old birth came from mortal sperm; your new birth comes from God’s living Word. Just think: a life conceived by God himself!
DEVOTIONAL: Christ answered the rich young ruler’s question of how to be saved? He said with compassion in his eye, “ye must be born again!”We are reminded in these scriptures that God had a plan for your life from the beginning. This plan can only be known by experiencing the new birth. If you trust God you have a future. Real life begins with Jesus and the gospel of John tells us, “In the beginning was the word and without Him was not anything made.” Did you catch it, “The Word”? As we approach the New Year remember new birth only comes from God’s Living Word. Do you want a life then choose Jesus.He waits at your heart’s door for you to invite Him In to your life and follow truth, love one another and love God for his love for you. Amen

God Bless you,

Brother Mike

Dec 27_2012 1 Kings 2





Dear  Saints,

Thank you for sharing the Feast with us.  Today we prayerfully read in, 1 Kings 2.   David’s is dying and he tells Solomon to obey the laws of God. David’s tells Solomon how to deal with Joab and others.   Solomon is installed on the throne, for trying to take the throne Adonijah is put to death.  Abiathar is banned from being a priest to the Lord, Joab put to death for killing righteous men.  Shimei is put to death;   42 the king sent and summoned Shimei and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the Lord and solemnly warn you, saying, ‘Know for certain that on the day you go out and go to any place whatever, you shall die’? And you said to me, ‘What you say is good; I will obey.’ 43 Why then have you not kept your oath to the Lord and the commandment with which I commanded you?” 44 The king also said to Shimei, “You know in your own heart all the harm that you did to David my father. So the Lord will bring back your harm on your own head. 45 But King Solomon shall be blessed, and the throne of David shall be established before the Lord forever.” 46 Then the king commanded Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck him down, and he died.  1 Kings 1:49:53.  English Standard Version (ESV).   Sin is like a cancer, which keeps eating away unnoticed for a while.  We should listen to David’s instructions to Solomon.  We need to obey God and keep his precepts.  “[Bless the LORD, O My Soul] Of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits,” Psalm 103:1-2 ESV.  In all our ways we should honor Jesus.  Share his love and keep the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus.  Let our very souls praise the Lord!

Devotional Series on Christian Living (December 27, 2012)
Scripture: I Peter 1:10-16
10 ¶ the prophets who told us this was coming asked a lot of questions about this gift of life God was preparing.
11 The Messiah’s Spirit let them in on some of it—that the Messiah would experience suffering, followed by glory. They clamored to know who and when.
12 All they were told was that they were serving you, you who by orders from heaven have now heard for yourselves—through the Holy Spirit—the Message of those prophecies fulfilled. Do you realize how fortunate you are? Angels would have given anything to be in on this!
13 ¶ so roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives.
14 Don’t lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn’t know any better than; you do now.
15 As obedient children, let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God’s life, a life energetic and blazing with holiness.
16 God said, "I am holy; you be holy."
