God rested on the Seventh day

Gen 2:2: "And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made."

The seventh day represents more than just a specific point in time; it symbolizes the completion of God's work and His rest. The work of our salvation, initiated by God after the fall of Adam and Eve when He clothed them with animal skins, was completed through the death and resurrection of Christ. The death of Jesus Christ signifies the completion of the work of our salvation. As a result, there is no need for further sacrifice for sin, and we are no longer required to struggle for deliverance from the devil's bondage. Our salvation, healing, and deliverance are now dependent on our faith in the death and resurrection of Christ. Without faith, we cannot access the blessings secured for us by Christ's sacrifice on the cross. Having faith in the works of Christ is essential for salvation, deliverance, and healing. 

God now works for us through our faith in the death and resurrection of Christ. It is important to put our faith in the word of God, as this aligns us with His workings. Even when we cannot perceive God working in a physical sense, He is actively working on our behalf through our faith in Him. If we have faith in God, there is no need to fear, as God is continually working in our favour, ensuring that we will never be put to shame. With faith in God, individuals are already secure and will never be left in a state of helplessness. Our faith in God is our ultimate security in this world. It's important to recognize that money, possessions, and people do not provide true security, but rather our faith in God. Ultimately, our faith in God is the most valuable asset in this world.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
