30 – Quickened, Raised, Seated
Ephesians 2:1-10 (KJVS) [1] And you hath He quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; [2] Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: [3] Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh,…
29 – Tilling the garden of your soul
Genesis 2:4-15 (KJV) [4] These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens, [5] And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the…
28 – Dealing with impossible situations
Matthew 14:13-21 (KJV) “[13] When Jesus heard of it, He departed thence by ship into a desert place apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed Him on foot out of the cities. [14] And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and He healed their sick. [15] And when it was evening, His disciples came to Him,…
27 – Grace to be built as God’s temple
Acts 20:32, 1 Corinthians 3:16 “And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.” (Acts 20:32, KJV) “Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God…
26 – Death: the instrument of our change
Death simply means separation. If the separation occurs between a part that depends on the other to live, the dependent one is considered dead. Man originally lived in the environment of God and needed God to survive. When he sinned and was removed from the life of God, He died, living his soul to…
25 – Death is Swallowed up by Life
The resurrection from the dead is a reality promised to all who put their faith in Jesus. The promise is that those who believe in Jesus will live forever, though they die. There is a tendency we have to relegate the resurrection to a date in the future. However, in John 11:20-27, when Mary answered Jesus that she believed Lazarus would rise from the dead on the…
24 – Seedtime and Harvest
The land the Lord had given the Israelites, however, was not the most irrigated land, unlike Egypt where they came from. It was a land that depended solely on the Lord for rain and the ability to bear fruits. In preparation for this rain, the Israelites knew too well the importance of preparing their crops. They needed to break up the fallow ground, till the soil before…
23 – Dwelling with God in heaven
Isaiah 57:13-15 (KJV) “[13] … but he that putteth his trust in Me shall possess the land, and shall inherit My holy mountain; [14] And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of My people. [15] For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with…
22 – Run with Patience
When thinking of the word Patience, it’s common to assume a state of waiting with little to no action. Romans 2:7 puts an interesting twist to this understanding by using the phrase “patient continuance in well-doing”. The verse is pretty much saying that those who patiently continue in well-doing, seeking for the glory, honour and immortality that come from God alone are…
21 – Let brotherly love continue
Joel 2:1-11 speaks of a great and terrible army in the day of the Lord. These men run like mighty men, climb walls, and do not break their rank. This prophetically speaks of the end-time army, the Eklessia that the Lord Himself is raising. An army of ordinary men who have learned to move as one man.
