We Qualify

Today I am truely grateful that the Lord do not look at us the way we look at each other or even the way we look at ourselves.

'And, remember that judgement is merciless for the one who judges others without mercy. So by showing mercy you take dominion over judgement.' James 2:13 The Passion Translation

God's mercy is new every day! The mercy and grace of God triumphs over judgement.

'For it was only through this wonderful grace that we believed in Him. Nothing we did could ever earn this salvation, for it was the gracious gift from God that brought us to Christ! So no one will ever be able to boast, for the salvation is never a reward for good works or human striving.' Ephesians 2: 8-9 The Passion Translation

We put ourselves under tremendous pressure when we try to be perfect... He knows everything about us, our thoughts and our hearts. He can see what others cannot see.  We often have a extended date or refer to one day I will live a rightuous life in Christ. But then, life happens and we feel unworthy and ashamed to go to Him.


The Lord actually came to this world, in a weaken state, a natural body so He knows how difficult it can be for us. He came to make it easier for us. To give light in darkness... leading us home.

'Simply join your life with mine. Learn my ways and you'll discover that I'm gentle, humble, easy to please. You will find refreshment and rest in me. For all that I require of you will be pleasant and easy to bear.' Matthew 11: 29 - 30 The Passion Translation

So our sins actually qualify us for His salvation. Wow!!! what a relief! 

If the King of kings are humble and gentle towards us, it's a great oppertunity for us to do the same and bow in reverence before Him!

Oceans

'God claims the world as His. Everything and everyone belongs to Him!  He's the one Who pushed back oceans to let the dry ground appear, planting firm foundations for the earth.' Ps. 24: 1-2 The Passion Translation (Image found on pinterst saved from shellsonthebeach.tumblr.com) In July 2017 I dreamt of standing infront of the ocean and as I was looking over the beautiful display of the works of God, I saw the ocean being pulled back and then suddenly the ocean shifted. The water came rushing out of a different direction and reached new areas that it did not reach before.  As I meditated on this revelation and asked the Lord what He was revealing to me in this dream.  I clearly and on several occasions, received the explanation in Isaiah 43... 'This is what the Lord says, He who makes a way through the sea And a path through the mighty waters, “Do not remember the former things, Or ponder the things of the past. “Listen carefully, I am about to do a new...

THE GIFT IN THE REBUKE

Image
A parent has the responsibility to shape and mould their children from an early age.  A mother corrects her child while breastfeeding, giving gentle instructions. A close friend and sister in Christ recently gave birth to a beautiful baby boy and listening to her new profound journey in motherhood is just so beautiful.  From the first moment, the feeding process is accompanied with teaching and instruction to ensure growth and development. This goes hand in hand with the intimate bond between a child and parent. like newborn babies [you should] long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may be nurtured and grow in respect to salvation [its ultimate fulfillment], if in fact you have [already] tasted the goodness and gracious kindness of the Lord. 1 PETER 2:2‭-‬3 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/1pe.2.2-3.AMP Photo found on Pinterest.

Hit The Ground Running

[The Lord rebukes Jeremiah for his impatience, saying] “If you have raced with men on foot and they have tired you out, Then how can you compete with horses? If you fall down in a land of peace [where you feel secure], Then how will you do [among the lions] in the [flooded] thicket beside the Jordan? JEREMIAH 12:5 AMP https://bible.com/bible/1588/jer.12.5.AMP When we have chosen life in Christ our reality shifts into a new Truth. Truth that comes to life when the Light of the World moves into our hearts and shares with us things we did not know before. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. The Revelation 3:20 TLV https://bible.com/bible/314/rev.3.20.TLV To keep up with horses we need the Creator to feed us Truth. We still get to experience life, the joys and the challenges, but The Lord f Lordpromises that He will go with us through the fire, the waters and th...
