Isaiah 55: 11 God Is A Promise Keeper

"So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it" (Is. 55:11, NKJV).

Indeed, our God is a promise keeper! If God reveals something to you in the spirit, there will be a natural manifestation of it, without a doubt.

The key is this: God's timing! When is His timing? We don't know, but one thing of a surety is the fact that we have proof in scripture that declares God's word will accomplish what He sent it to do.

Spiritual revelation involves the Holy Spirit making known the "deep things" and hidden mysteries of God that cannot be understood by human reason alone.

My Point: God spoke in the spirit to His people through the prophets and there was a natural manifestation of what He said. It took 70years, but it happened! They left Babylonian captivity!

God's Word is True! If God said it, you can rest assured that it will happen as He said!

Good night!

James 4:8 God Is Calling You Closer To Him

James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

This text is a command and a promise. The command is simple: Return to God in humility and sincere repentance. The promise is guaranteed: He will move toward you if you move towards Him.

Drawing near to God is about spiritual intimacy, not physical location. Does God seem distant to you? When God feels distant, we must remember: God does not move.

If a gap exists in our lives, it is because we have drifted, not God. He isn't hiding; He is only a prayer away. We bridge that distance by faith through repentance, prayer, a submissive heart, and study of His Word.

The Lord our God is ever-present. This means He is everywhere at once! Drawing near to God is about intimacy, not about geographical location.

When we draw nigh unto God, His response to us is one of love, hope, joy, peace, comfort, strength to resist temptation, peace for our weary minds, and comfort for our wounded souls.

Responding to the invitation to draw nigh unto God brings spiritual benefits, including hope, peace, joy unspeakable, comfort, strength to resist temptation, peace, and so many blessings that are too many to number.

For those who may be visiting here today or tonight that are feeling brokenhearted, abandoned, lonely or even weary, I want to remind you of this truth, “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and He saves those whose spirits are crushed” (Ps. 34:18, NIV).

The same promise that God gave to the Prophet Jeremiah is available to you and I. “Call to me and I will answer you.” (Jer. 33:3, NIV).

Remember, you are never alone! God is a whispered prayer away!

God bless you all and thank you for enjoying the ride with Jesus tonight.

Psalm 107:29 Anchored In The Unexpected Storm

Psalm 107:29-He calmed the storm to a whisper and stilled the waves.

Are you caught in an unexpected storm? Jesus is the anchor you desperately need to make it to safety.

Guess what? He is the "ANCHOR" that holds in spite of our stormy seas! Will you trust Him today?

Ponder this a little while, and then step out on faith in Jesus.

This is one of my favorite scriptures of hope, therefore, I shared it in hopes that you would find safety in it also.

Jesus alone has the power to bring "peace and hope" in life's stormy seas. He alone is the anchor that holds in spite of the storms in our lives!

God bless!

Matthew 27:62-66 The Guards at the Tomb on Silent Saturday

On the day of Jesus’ crucifixion Joseph of Arimathea prepared His body and laid it in the tomb on Friday evening, just before the start of the sabbath at 6pm that day.

The next day, Saturday, which was the (Sabbath), the chief priests and Pharisees visited Pilate, the Roman governor with this fearful message: “That deceiver claimed he would rise in three days. Order the tomb secured so his disciples don’t steal the body and claim he rose.” Pilate replied, “Take a guard and make it secure. So, they sealed the stone and posted a guard” (Matt. 27:62-66, NIV).

Pilate tried to secure a body, but ended up arranging witnesses to a miracle. The grave was secured against human efforts, but not divine power. The story didn't end on Saturday."

Good God Almighty!

Romans 5:8 The Day God Demonstrated His Love Toward Us

Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us"

Holy Friday, commonly known as Good Friday, is a solemn Christian holy day commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus at Calvary.

Good Friday was a day of deep sorrow and profound remembrance. It recalls for us today, the significance of Jesus' sacrifice, which bridged the gap between humanity and God.

The arrest in the garden of Gethsemane, the trials before Annas/Caiaphas, and the religious leaders' decision to kill Jesus all happened during the night.

The religious leaders brought Jesus before Pilate, the Roman governor, early in the morning.

The journey to the cross intensified during the night with Jesus’s arrest and religious trials, culminating in a tense confrontation in Pilate’s court early the next morning.

Accusations against Jesus from the religious leaders led Pilate to question Jesus with these words: "Are you the King of the Jews?

This act (crucifixion) is proof of God’s love for us even unto death.

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Rom 5:8, NIV).

It is finished!

John 13:21-33 The Kiss Of Betrayal

John 13:21-33 After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, “Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.” 22 His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. 23 One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him. 24 Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, “Ask him which one he means.”

25 Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, “Lord, who is it?”26 Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. 27 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.” 28 But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him. 29 Since Judas had charge of the money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the festival, or to give something to the poor. 30 As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.

Holy Tuesday introduces us to Jesus and His 12 disciples who had gathered in an upper room to partake in what is known as the “Last Supper.”

During this fellowship, Jesus became deeply troubled or sorrowful in his spirit, not by the cross that was before Him, but also by the known betrayal from one of his own disciples who would later betray Him for 30 pieces of silver that was actually agreed upon before the meal.

Later that night, while Jesus was praying in the Garden of Gethsemane, Judas arrived with a crowd of soldiers and officials.

Jesus responded by asking, "Friend, do what you have come for," and Jesus was immediately arrested, leading to His trial and crucifixion.

Jesus greatest threat was not against his enemies, pilot and the religious leaders, but the ones He was closet to.

People of God, watch and pray!

Matthew 26:14-16 What Will You Pay Me For Doing This?

Matthew 26:14-16  Then one of the Twelve—the one called Judas Iscariot—went to the chief priests 15 and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?” So they counted out for him thirty pieces of silver. 16 From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over.

This day is knowns as “spy” Wednesday. Its name refers to Judas (Jesus' disciple), acting as a “spy or informant” within Jesus inner circle.

On this day Judas secretly met with the Sanhedrin (council of Jewish leaders) and agreed to deliver Jesus to them in exchange for thirty pieces of silver.

Judas met with the high priests, who were seeking a way to eliminate Jesus without causing a public riot, because they were afraid of the people.

While the conspiracy happened on Wednesday, the physical arrest of Jesus occurred late the following night, on a Thursday.

I leave us all with this rhetorical question. What price have we placed on our soul? Is our soul’s worth temporary material gain, wealth or power?

Even if a person acquires everything on earth, it is worthless if they lose their soul, as earthly possessions are temporary while the soul is eternal.

What are you willing to, or have given in exchange for your soul?

"If the truth be told, the only true exchange is surrendering our sin to God in return for eternal life.

Exchange is not just a behavior modification; it’s a complete identity transformation."

What’s in your view? Is it the great exchange!

Moving from the shame of betrayal to the "great exchange" of salvation IS the message of hope!

Matthew 21:23 Holy Tuesday

Holy Tuesday - Losing and Finding Life

Matthew 23:1-2 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, 2 “The teachers of religious law and the Pharisees are the official interpreters of the law of Moses. 3 So practice and obey whatever they tell you, but don’t follow their example. For they don’t practice what they teach.

This day is often called the "Day of Authority" or the "Day of Controversy.

Holy Tuesday wasn't about miracles; it was about the truth. Jesus returned to the Temple to challenge the hearts of everyone there.

While religious leaders tried to trip Him up with tricky questions, Jesus responded with a wisdom that stripped away their masks.

Through parables like the Tenants and the Ten Virgins, Jesus shifted the focus from 'acting' religious to being truly ready for His return.

Jesus moved the conversation beyond knowing facts about God to actually knowing Him personally. It’s a reminder that Jesus doesn't want our religious performance, He wants our sincere devotion.

The question that echoed in the temple courts that day, and remains to be a question for us today is, are we merely playing a part or truly surrendering to God’s authority in our lives through Christ Jesus.

Hummmm! We all can ponder here!

Matthew 21:12-13 Holy Monday

Matthew 21:12-13 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 13 “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.

Holy Monday is the second day of Holy Week, serving as a symbol of spiritual cleansing, authority, and judgment.

Finding the temple courts filled with corrupt money changers and merchants, Jesus did 3 separate things.

Drove Out the Merchants: He physically expelled those buying and selling animals intended for sacrifices.

Overturned Tables: He knocked over the stations of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves.

Rebuked Corruption: "My house shall be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a den of robbers."

Symbolically, Jesus’ action can be viewed as divine disruption aimed at restoring the temple to its original purpose as a “house of prayer” rather than a marketplace for profit.

By driving out those who turned the Temple into a "den of robbers" and a "house of merchandise," Jesus was calling for a return to genuine, heart-led worship rather than profit-driven rituals.

This action by Jesus was also a symbol of restoration of holiness by removing the moral corruption that had "polluted" God’s Holy temple.

In applying Jesus’ point to our world today, it signifies the need to remove anything from our inner temple (the heart) that hinders us from a genuine connection with God.

Worship to God must be sincere, holy, pure, and accessible to people of all nations.

Remember, our bodies are a temple of the Lord!

Thank you for stopping by and enjoying the ride with Jesus!

God bless you all!
