Storm in our lives.

Isaiah: 40-12.

Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breath of his hand marked off the heavens?
Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a
balance?

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, this word encourages those who are going through trials. When we go through trials we
usually refer to them as waters, storms, floods etc.,
Let us think for a moment, if all the waters in the universe can be held in the hollow of one hand of our Almighty
God, then our trials are like a drop of water in the Ocean.
It can in no way ruin our spiritual life.
Dear child of God, don't ever forget you are upheld in a mighty hand.
Isaiah: 41-10: I will uphold them with the right hand of my righteousness.
Our loving Lord's hands are so broad and powerful that no devil can pluck us out of them.
So my dearest, instead of looking at your problem - look at the greatness of our God, instead of looking
at our weakness - look at the strength of our God - instead of looking at the limitations - look
at the unlimited grace of God.
We have a God who is so wonderful and who makes our lives wonderful.

Temple of God.

2 Corinthians: 6-16.

What agreement is there between the temple of God and Idols? For we are the temple of the living God.
As God has said, "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God and they will be my
People."

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, In the Old Testment, God told Moses, "I will walk among you, and will be your
God, and you shall be my people".
When this verse was quoted in the New Testment the AMONG became IN, "I will dwell IN them,
and walk IN them".
What do we learn from this? he (God) desires to have continuous relationship with us.
He wants to dwell in us and walk in us, and be our God in a most intimate way.

Book of Life.

Revelation: 3-5.

He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life.
But will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angles.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, God not only has a "Book of Life", but He also has a "Book of remembrance"
in which is listed the names of every person who chose to talk about Him to others.
It is good to talk about the Lord and share testimonies with one another because by
remembering the Lord we are actually experiencing His love.
Dear child of God, what do we gain by talking about things that are not worthy to God - let us
be for cussed and act in the way that will please God.

Hide me.

Psalm:17-8.

Keep me as the apple of your eye, hide me in the shadow of your wings.

We should pray this verse everyday - Apple of your eye means pupil of the eye, it is very sensitive-we
automatically guard it from anything harmful.
Our hand will go up to stop anything from coming too close to the eye or pupil.
The lord guards us in this way because we are like the pupil of His eye. He also hides us from
the shadow of His wings.
Psalm:91-4. He will cover you with His feathers and under His wings you will find refuge.
The lord covers us with His feathers - we should not display ourselves. O I did that and this
instead we need to hide ourselves under the Lord's grace.
When we rest in the lord and raise up like eagles - we are not alone for He who raised us will protect
us and cover us

Be strong.

Ephesians: 6:10.

Be strong in the Lord and in His Mighty power.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, The lord gives power to the faint and weak and to those who have no strength.
He multiplies strength. The lord multiplies our strength. So be empowered in the Lord
and in the might of His strength. And you like Paul will know the secret - and say I can do all things in Him who
empowers me (Phil:4-12-13).
So my children, be empowered in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
When we are empowered in the grace we will enjoy the Lord and we will also teach others.
It all begins with our knowing the Lord and our empowering grace.
The Lord who empowered Paul and strengthened him will empower you.

Prayer: Lord make our whole being light, May there be no dark
parts remaining within us. Lord your light is the most pleasant light
and it kills all negative things.
Lord, we want all neg. things to be killed in us. In Jesus Name. Amen.

Christ Crucifixion.

1 Peter:2-24-25.

He himself bore our sins In His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness by His wound
you have been healed. For you were like sheep going astray, but now, you have returned to the Shepherd
and overseer of your souls.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, nothing tests us more than the experience of the Cross. Through such an application
of the Cross, the lord heals us.
Real healing takes place as we receive the dealing of the Cross. Then Christ's resurrection life becomes our healing
power, and the Lord becomes our Healer.
Christ bore all our sins, mistakes, evil doings, iniquities, wrongdoings, trespasses and transgressions,
Christ's precious blood shed for the forgiveness of our sins is also the blood of the covenNt,
because of the blood of Jesus, we have boldness for entering the Holy of Holies, where we can
enjoy God and behold His beauty.

Judgement.

Read - John: 18-33:38. John: 19-1-16.

My dear children, The Lord was mainly afflicted by the Jewish leaders, represented by the High Priest
the Chief Priest, the elders and the entire multitude.
They were accusing Him (spewing forth venom). Those who arrested Him bore false testimony
against Him, spat in His face, slapped Him and beat Him with their fists.
The soldiers despised and mocked Him, put rich garment on Him, put a crown of thorns on His
Head and led Him away to be crucified.
All these affliction were suffered unjustly by Christ He was taken to be crucified.
My dear children, when you do God's work - you may have come across people mocking you
accusing you or giving all kinds of false testimonies against you - but remember Christ has taken away all
your shame to the Cross. So do not be discouraged for the power of the Cross will overshadow you.

Bread of Life.

John: 6-53.

Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink of His Blood,
you have no life in you.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, the lord said that we must eat the flesh of the Son of Man and in verse 55, He declared
"My flesh is the true food".
Flesh here signifies the life of Christ. Then in verse 57 He declared "He who eats ,me He also shall
live because of me".
This life of Christ is our life supply. The blood of Christ redeems and the life of Christ supplies.
So my dear children, let us remember this and live our lives in Him who is the Bread of Life.

Dwelling place.

1 John:4-15.

If anyone acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, God is in us. The Bible says in 1 Cor:6-17. That we are joined to the Lord in one spirit. His divine spirit dwells in our
Human spirit, and these two mingle together as one spirit. God cannot apply His redemptive work to us
without being one with us.
When Christ died on the Cross, we died there with Him. Without dying there is no life. If Christ had not died
on the Cross we have no life. God became man so that we could have His divine life.
The incarnation was for the impartation of His divine life into us.

God's love.

John 1:11.

He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, we see in this verse that the Lord came to His own and His own did not receive Him.
He came to bear the sins of the people of Isreal yet men did not want Him, they rejected Him.
When He was on the Cross men rejected Him and God also rejected Him.
If we have been there we would have been disappointed, discouraged, saddened and grived.
But John:19 says, the Lord cried on the Cross "It Is Finished!"
We would have cried "It Is Over". But He was shouting like a victorious army. "It Is Finished!"
He had no hope towards the world and did not expect to receive anything from it.
His only hope was in God and His only satisfaction was in God. He said no one knows the son expect the father.
He did not receive glory from men. He did not come to do His own will but the will of the one who sent Him.
He was not disappointed no matter how people, events and things in the world changed.
For those who take their satisfaction in God will never be disappointed.

Speaking of God.

Isaiah: 40-6-8.

The grass withers and the flowers fall because the breath of the Lord blows on them.

My dear children, all flesh withers like grass and fades like the flower - All mankind will not last.
Human beings will pass away but the word of Jesus remains forever.
When we hear His word, we see Him and are saved. Some say that they saw Jesus and were saved.
Actually they did not see Him, physically but they heard His word, His word is Himself He is Christ.
When we speak in this way the lord is present in our speaking and others are able to see
Jesus. When people listen to His word they live. When we heard the gospel, we saw Jesus
we were made alive. This living word brought the eternal life into us to regenerate us.

Lydiaelijah.

Iniquity of the people.

Psalm: 85-2.

You forgave the iniquity of the people and covered all their sins.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, as serious as sin is, it is no problem for God. He solved
the sin question once and forever in the death of Jesus Christ on Calvary's Cross.
Sin may be consistently be a problem for the Church, but as far as God is concerned it is settled.
God's law's were answered in Christ's death, his people were cleansed by Christ's Blood
and the power of sin was broken in Christ resurrection.
God need not do anything more "IT IS FINISHED".
God did not settle the sin question to His satisfaction and then leave men to
struggle under the weight of sin's guilt. He promised to freely and fully forgive sinful man, thereby
remitting all guilt to Calvary.

Waiting and Watching.

Luke: 12-37.

It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. I tell you the truth, he will
dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, Blessed are those slaves whom the master when he comes will find watching.
The word of the Lord says, that He Himself will wait on us.
What a grace this is!
The Lord who is greater than all is not reclining at the table, He is serving us.
The Lord also washed the disciples feet (John:13-4-5). A time is coming when He will come openly to inherit
the earth - to establish His Kingdom, there will be a special time of festing and again He will Himself serve the overcomes.
He is among us as the Spirit, and He is embodied in the word - He longs to unveil Himself to us.
so that we may know Him, treasure Him, open to Him and allow Him to use us the way He desires.

Lydiaelijah.

Built up in Christ.

Colossians:2-7.

Rooted and built up in Him strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, rooted and built-up in Him - being family members of God's household, to being family members of God's
Household, to being framed to-gather as God's living temple.
The spiritual temple is the first evident product of God's program of getting us together.
The true Church is people filled with the Holy Spirit - when they come together they form a dwelling place
for God Himself,for God dwells in the Church on the earth.
His communication and acts are proformed through that Church.
Dear child of God, the father loved the church, the son died for the church and the Holy Spirit
Dwells in that church.
So let us pray that we His children be rooted and built up in Him.

Lydiaelijah.

Fading men.

Isaiah: 40-6-8.

All grass withers and the flower fall but the word of our God stands forever.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, just as the grass and the flowers, nothing will remain in the human race
Everything will fade away expect the word of God. Everything including men.
Isaiah says all men should receive the word of God that they may have external life to live
forever.
The lord Jesus told us that He was sent by the Father and that He did not speak for himself
but from His father.
He who believes in Him will have eternal life.

Lydiaelijah.

Meaningless.

Ecclesiastes: 1-2.

Meaningless! Meaningless, say the teacher, utterly meaningless, everything is meaningless.

Sharing of the word:

My dear children, every time we are busy doing this and that, we think we are but it is all vanity.
Everything is vanity, the Sun the Moon the living creatures, the heavens and the earth are all
vanity. Only one "is" - No human language can express what the title I AM means
You must believe in God. Do you need God? God is. Do you need food? God is.
That is why we say the great saying - Jesus is the great I AM.
John:6-35 says, I am the bread of life. He is the real food. Jesus is the great I AM.
Without Jesus life is Meaningless.
