Jan. 14, 2014 – Proverbs 16 Does God Love Sinners? Iniquity is compensated for by steadfast love and faithfulness. Proverbs 16  “Verse 1. The renewing grace of God alone prepares the heart for every good work. This teaches us that we are not sufficient of ourselves to think or speak any thing wise and good..  Verse 33. All the disposal of Providence concerning our affairs, we must look upon to be the determining what we referred to God; and we must be reconciled to them accordingly. Blessed are those that give themselves up to the will of God; for he knows what is good for them.” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 16. God’s love is demonstrated in His decision to patiently love us.  “31 Gray hair is a crown of glory; it is gained in a righteous life.  32 Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.  33 The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord.” Proverbs 16:31-33 (English Standard Version) ESV.  God is love and therefor cannot be pleased without love for each other (see 1 John 4:7-9).  Whoever is without love for their brother doesn’t know Jesus (see 1 John 3:16-18).  God’s love is demonstrated in our love for each other: “20 If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. 21 And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.” 1 John 4:20-21  ESV. The greatest commandment is summed up in our love for each other (see mark 12:31).  The answer to the question (Does God Love Sinners?) can be summed up in one verse; John 3:16. Can you hear Jesus calling you? Do you seek true love?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast does belong to Jesus!

Jan. 13, 2014 – Proverbs 15 God’s Gift Is Refreshing! The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, and good news refreshes. Proverbs 15  “Verse 1. A right cause will be better pleaded with meekness than with passion. Nothing stirs up anger like grievous words.  Verse 32. Sinners undervalue their own souls; therefore they prefer the body before the soul, and wrong the soul to please the body. Verse 33. The fear of the Lord will dispose us to search the Scriptures with reverence; and it will cause us to follow the leadings of the Holy Spirit. While we humbly place all our dependence on the grace of God, we are exalted in the righteousness of Christ.” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 15. Righteousness refreshes us and the soul is transformed for eternity with salvation by the Lord Jesus Christ.  “32 Whoever ignores instruction despises himself, but he who listens to reproof gains intelligence.  33 The fear of the Lord is instruction in wisdom, and humility comes before honor.” Proverbs 15:32-33 (English Standard Version) ESV.  Jesus isn’t willing that any should die in their sins but that they should all come to repentance (see 2 Peter 3:9).  Whoever Jesus refreshes shall never again thirst (see John 4:14).  God didn’t send Jesus to punish us. “19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.” 2 Corinthians 5:19-20  ESV. Jesus left instructions for the disciples and all that follow in their footsteps (see John 17:19-21).  While there is still people thirsting for salvation, let your light shine and share the living water in Jesus name wherever God leads you. Is Jesus calling you?  Do you want an abundant life?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast does belong to Jesus!

What Will Move God To Exalt A Nation?

Jan. 12, 2014 – Proverbs 14 What Exalts A Nation? There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. Proverbs 14  “Verse 1. A woman who has no fear of God, who is wilful and wasteful, and indulges her ease, will as certainly ruin her family, as if she plucked her house down. Verse 35. The great King who reigns over heaven and earth, will reward faithful servants who honour his gospel by the proper discharge of the duties of their stations: he despises not the services of the lowest.” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 14. As we seek the wisdom of righteousness in Proverbs 14, we see that men’s actions and thought do not always promote a nation.  “34 Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to any people.  35 A servant who deals wisely has the king's favor, but his wrath falls on one who acts shamefully.” Proverbs 14:20-21 (English Standard Version) ESV.  Wise men seek God when they make decisions.  Sometimes the men who guide a free nation make big mistakes in enforcing or enacting the laws for the nation (see Romans 1:22).  The actions of these “wise” judges push a nation further from God because they lean on their own understanding (see Proverbs 3:5-6).   Some decisions by the persons who lead a nation make its population feel lost and out of control.  There is strong action we can take as Saints (see 2 Chronicles 7:14).  Jesus said if we Saints can agree on our needs we can bring them to God in prayer; “18 Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” Matthew 18:18-20  ESV. Jesus also said that whatever we ask in His name (see John 14:13), it will be done.  We cannot waiver.  Instead of complaining to each other about the state of our nation; let’s take it all together in prayer to God in Jesus’ name.  Then and only then will God exalt our nation!

Jesus is Our Righteousness!

Jan. 11, 2014 – Proverbs 13 Jesus is Our Righteousness! The righteous hates falsehood, the teaching of the wise is a fountain of life. Proverbs 13  “…There is great hope of those that reverence their parents..., …He acts as if he hated his child, who, by false indulgence, permits sinful habits to gather strength, which will bring sorrow here, and misery hereafter…” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 13. As we read Proverbs 13 we see the scripture speaking of the wise and the righteous.  “20 Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm. 21 Disaster pursues sinners, but the righteous are rewarded with good.” Proverbs 13:20-21 (English Standard Version) ESV.  The wise person understands their righteousness in Jesus (see Isaiah 64:6 and Romans 3:21-23).  No person is righteous without faith in Jesus (see Romans 3:9-12).   “5 Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. 6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear.  What can man do to me?” Psalm 118:5-6  ESV. Jesus the man was tempted yet he never sinned; He is righteous (see 1 John 2:1), faithful and true.

Strive for Self Control!

Today’s Feast clic aquí en español I don’t speak Spanish so I use the Google translator to put the Feast out in Spanish for your convenience!  If the meaning of the Feast is being lost in translation please let me know; mstanj@hotmail.com Thank You! Jan. 10, 2014 – Proverbs 12 Strive for Self Control! Whoever loves self-control loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is senseless. Proverbs 12  “…Those who have grace, will delight in the instructions given them. Those that stifle their convictions, are like brutes...” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 12. As we read Proverbs 12 we find that the saint who guards his thoughts controls his tongue.  “3 No one is established by wickedness, but the root of the righteous will never be moved.”; “28 In the path of righteousness is life, and in its pathway there is no death.” Proverbs 12:3;28 (English Standard Version) ESV.  When we guard our thoughts we are guarding against sin (see Matthew 5:28).  When we guard our thoughts we will further control our tongue against unrighteousness.  Our tongue contains power over life and death (see Proverbs 18:21).   “15 but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16 since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”” 1 Peter 1:15-16  ESV.  When we strive for self-control we are striving to walk in love and to be imitators (see Ephesians 5:1) of our lord Jesus.

Spiritual Wisdom!

Jan. 9, 2014 – Proverbs 11 Spiritual Wisdom! Whoever belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent. Proverbs 11  “A man of understanding does not judge of others by their success.” -  Matthew Henry Concise Return to Admenu - Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 11. As we read Proverbs 11 we are shown the contrasts between spiritual wisdom as opposed to fleshly folly!   “30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and whoever captures souls is wise.  31 If the righteous is repaid on earth, how much more the wicked and the sinner!” Proverbs 11:30-31 (English Standard Version) ESV.  If I judge others by their success or make fun of them it is counted to me as senseless folly (see Proverbs 11).  A man of understanding does not judge of others by their outward appearance or success.   It is important to remember that Jesus would prefer that all men would come to accept the gift of salvation (see 2 Peter 3:9).   Once again I would say; “It is good to hate the sin and to remember that Jesus came to redeem the sinner.”   “19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:19-21  ESV.  We share a loving spiritual God with the world; and only by the power of his Spirit can people truly know and share Jesus. Is Jesus calling you?  Can you still feel God’s calling?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm The Feast does belong to Jesus!
