Simply Promoting Jesus!

Today’s Feast Feb. 6, 2016 – 1 Kings 1 Simply Promoting Jesus! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness will find life, righteousness, and honor.”  Psalm 33:4-5, English Standard Version (ESV) Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in 1 Kings Chapter 1; “The history now before us accounts for the affairs of the kingdoms of Judah and Israel, yet with special regard to the kingdom of God among them; for it is a sacred history. It is earlier as to time, teaches much more, and is more interesting than any common histories. David's declining age. (1-4) Adonijah aspires to the throne. (5-10) David makes Solomon king. (11-31) Solomon is anointed king, and Adonijah's usurpation stopped. (32-53)” - Matthew Henry Concise. David is old and his health is declining. Adonijah the son of Haggith, promotes himself to David’s throne. After Nathan and Bathsheba explain the situation to King David, he makes Solomon, his promised heir king. Solomon became king, and Adonijah’s usurpation is stopped; ”49 Then all the guests of Adonijah trembled and rose, and each went his own way. 50 And Adonijah feared Solomon. So he arose and went and took hold of the horns of the altar. 51 Then it was told Solomon, “Behold, Adonijah fears King Solomon, for behold, he has laid hold of the horns of the altar, saying, ‘Let King Solomon swear to me first that he will not put his servant to death with the sword.’” 52 And Solomon said, “If he will show himself a worthy man, not one of his hairs shall fall to the earth, but if wickedness is found in him, he shall die.” 53 So King Solomon sent, and they brought him down from the altar. And he came and paid homage to King Solomon, and Solomon said to him, “Go to your house.””  1 Kings 1:49-53, ESV.   This is another example of a person trying to take power over God’s will.  God’s Word tell us that God promotes one and puts down another.  The powers appointed over us are promoted by God.  Therefore we should never presume we are more important than another to God.  That is the kind of behavior that will only embarrass us in the best of circumstances. “he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said, “Lord, now you are letting your servant depart in peace, according to your word; for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.” Luke 2:28-32, ESV.    In all we do and share put God at the forefront.  The God purposed life keeps God first and exalts others over ourselves in His kingdom.  We should always keep the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus.  In this way we are never doormats, we are simply promoting Jesus over ourselves.  If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow. You’ll find the praise and prayer list at; admenu.com/prayer.html.  Prayer request or Praise reports can be sent to brother Mike at;  mike@admenu.com 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; “36 “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, ESV.

Looking For Friends?

Today’s Feast Feb. 5, 2016 – Acts 28 Looking For Friends? clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.”  Psalm 33:4-5, English Standard Version (ESV) Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 28; “Paul kindly received at Melita. (1-10) He arrives at Rome. (11-16) His conference with the Jews. (17-22) Paul preaches to the Jews, and abides at Rome a prisoner. (23-31)” - Matthew Henry Concise. After seeing something different about him, Paul was kindly received at Melita. Paul arrives at Rome and many brothers there came to the Forum of Appius and Three Taverns to fellowship with him. Paul continues to share the good news, about the Messiah Jesus as prophesied in the Old Testament with the Jews. Paul preaches to the Jews, and lives in Rome as a prisoner. ”28 Therefore let it be known to you that this salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles; they will listen.”29: And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having much dispute among themselves. 30 He lived there two whole years at his own expense, and welcomed all who came to him, 31 proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance.” Acts 28:28-31, ESV. Paul continues to share the good new boldly no matter his circumstances. I believe that we can learn a lot about God’s will and the purpose the Holy Spirit has for our lives as we continue to read the Word of God. “26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” John 14:26, ESV. We are to prayerfully, lovingly and boldly carry this same message to all persons. Keeping the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. You can carry this awesome, message in love to all people. Some may reject you and or the salvation message, to their own detriment. Many will accept Jesus, with an open heart. When they accept Jesus you will have more brothers or sisters in the family of God! Matthew Henry phrased it well in his commentary on the 28th Chapter of of Acts; “…God can make strangers to be friends; friends in distress. Those who are despised for homely manners, are often more friendly than the more polished; and the conduct of heathens, or persons called barbarians, condemns many in civilized nations, professing to be Christians…”  If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.

Avoid The Shipwreck!

Today’s Feast Feb. 4, 2016 – Acts 27 Avoid The Shipwreck! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “1 I love you, O LORD, my strength. 2 The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”  Psalm 18:1-2, English Standard Version (ESV) Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 27; “Paul's voyage towards Rome. (1-11) Paul and his companions endangered by a tempest. (12-20) He receives a Divine assurance of safety. (21-29) Paul encourages those with him. (30-38) They are shipwrecked. (39-44)” - Matthew Henry Concise. His faith in Jesus puts Paul on a voyage towards Rome. A dangerous storm bears down on Paul and his companions. God sends an angel to tell Paul all aboard the ship will be saved. Because of his faith in our Lord Jesus. Paul instructs those with him so that all will be saved from the storm. They are shipwrecked, and because the Holy Spirit worked together so that they are all safe. ”42 The soldiers’ plan was to kill the prisoners, lest any should swim away and escape. 43 But the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from carrying out their plan. He ordered those who could swim to jump overboard first and make for the land, 44 and the rest on planks or on pieces of the ship. And so it was that all were brought safely to land.” Acts 27:42-44, ESV. You may think that it was coincidence that they were all saved. I tell you it was because of the Holy Spirit that they all were saved. As we can see by the soldiers plan to kill the prisoners, it’s not in man’s fleshly nature to work together that all might be saved. “9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9, ESV. There is a way that any person who will can be saved. In serving Jesus we are keeping the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. It’s is not in man’s fleshly nature to give up what won’t last for that which is good and eternal. Keep remembering Jesus first, not worldly things. We can all be saved from the shipwrecked way of life, just as Paul and all those aboard their ship were. If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.

Who Is This Gift For?

Today’s Feast Feb. 3, 2016 – Acts 26 Who Is This Gift For? clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress.”  Psalm 59:16, English Standard Version (ESV) Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 26; “Paul's defence before Agrippa. (1-11) His conversion and preaching to the Gentiles. (12-23) Festus and Agrippa convinced of Paul's innocence. (24-32)” - Matthew Henry Concise. The promise by God of our savior Jesus is Paul’s chief defense before king Agrippa. Paul tells of his conversion and preaching to all people. Festus and Agrippa are convinced of Paul’s innocence. ”30 Then the king rose, and the governor and Bernice and those who were sitting with them. 31 And when they had withdrawn, they said to one another, “This man is doing nothing to deserve death or imprisonment.” 32 And Agrippa said to Festus, “This man could have been set free if he had not appealed to Caesar.”” Acts 26:30-32, ESV. Some may say that Paul’s own words delivered him to king Agrippa. I think it was God’s will that he was delivered to the king and his court, after all God’s gift is to all men. “ 6 And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth. 7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.” Luke 2:6-7, ESV. Think of this Paul was testifying of the same Christ Jesus that was born to Mary! Please help us in keeping the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. With the promise of life that comes with faith in Jesus, comes purpose to share him with all the people on earth. People of all stations, races, creeds, accomplishments, nothing was created without our God. Nothing or no one can be saved, without Jesus! If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow.

Ask Jesus!

Today’s Feast Feb. 2, 2016 – Acts 25 Ask Jesus! clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. “But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—”  1 Corinthians 2:9, English Standard Version (ESV) Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Thank you for joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 25; “Paul before Festus, he appeals to Caesar. (1-12) Festus confers with Agrippa respecting Paul. (13-27)” - Matthew Henry Concise. Paul is brought before Festus and there Paul feeling he had wronged no one appeals to Caesar. Festus finding no reason to punish him confers with Agrippa about Paul’s supposed trespasses. ”25 But I found that he had done nothing deserving death. And as he himself appealed to the emperor, I decided to go ahead and send him. 26 But I have nothing definite to write to my lord about him. Therefore I have brought him before you all, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that, after we have examined him, I may have something to write. 27 For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to indicate the charges against him.”” Acts 24:24-27, ESV. Just like Paul, when sharing the true gospel of Jesus, we may be accused of trespass. Because we serve the one true God, if we depend on the leading of the Holy Spirit, Jesus will take care of us. “[The Birth of Jesus Christ] In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.” Luke 2:1, 4-5 ESV . One thing is for sure, our God is awesome. Jesus promised that he would never leave nor forsake us! Join us in keeping the first thing first. The gift of God, salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. Do you want a true blessing? Ask Jesus to be Lord of your life. In doing so you will have a more abundant and purposeful life, everlasting. If the Lord is willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow You’ll find the praise and prayer list at; admenu.com/prayer.html.  Prayer request or Praise reports can be sent to brother Mike at;  mike@admenu.com Don’t get caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship.
