REDEEMING THE TIME
 
Bible Nugget 0105 [Romans 13 V 11 – 14; Psalm 90:12 (KJV)]

11And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

 12The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

 13Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

 14But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Time is one of the most valuable gifts given to man on earth by God. Christians will give an account of their time, how wisely they have used it in terms of holiness and way of life when we stand before thee judgment seat of Christ. The Psalmist says it consisely in Psalm 90 v 12.

 12So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

 Let us live lives pleasing to God and fulfill our spiritual obligation to His Kingdoms. Let your light shine.

 

Prayer of Faith 0105

Lord, help me to keep focused in my spiritual life. Revive my spirit man from all forms of slumber and keep me awake and alive in my service to you. I cast out of my life every affinity of lewdness and debauchery (wickedness, sin, depravity, corruption and dishonesty) in Jesus Name. Let my fellowship with you be sweet and help me to sow my time in the things of your kingdom in Jesus Name. Amen.

THE TREE OF MY LIFE SHALL NOT WITHER

 

Wisdom  Fountain 0104 [Psalm 1:1 – 6, KJV]

1Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

 2But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

 3And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

 4The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

 5Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

 6For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

This chapter of the Holy Bible begins the Psalms and defines the man who wants to walk with the Lord, stand where the Lord stands and seat where the Lord sits. As you put the words of this chapter into your memory, read and pray other chapters in the Psalm for yourself, talk to God with this prayer.

INNER CLEANSING
27 The spirit of a man is the lamp of the Lord, searching all the inner depths of his heart. 30 Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, As do stripes the inner depths of the heart [Proverbs 20:27, 30 NKJV].

The light post in a dark night guides sailors towards the harbour to berth their ship safely against the tempest of the sea as huge waves, lined up, surge from many nautical miles in the ocean ready to slam them against the harbour. Your spirit is the light post God has put in you to guide you through this tempestuous world. Keep it awake and let it glow in you 365 days/120 years if the Lord tarries.

Prayer for Alertness

Pray this prayer so you spirit man will be quickened from spiritual slumber, and your heart will be a sanctuary of His holiness.

Lord I thank you for your Holy Spirit that you have freely given to me. I decree that my spirit man shall be alive and awake to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. Search all the inward parts of my heart and purge away every thing that does not glorify you in Jesus name. Let mercy and truth fill my heart and lovingkindness be my attitude to those around me and those you have put under my care. Strengthen me in my inner man and grant me physical strength to tackle the challenges of daily living in Jesus name. Thank you for removing the pain for every blow I have received and teaching me to turn away from evil. Thank you for Jesus who was beaten with many stripes so the blows I receive will never consume me in Jesus name. Henceforth let no man trouble me for I bear on my body the marks of the Lord Jesus Christ (Gal 6:17) in Jesus name.  Amen.

COMPLETE IN CHRIST

Bible Nugget 0102 [Genesis 1:26; Colossians 2:9-10]

  

  9  For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

 10  And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power:

 

There is a resemblance between God and man. That resemblance, not necessarily in facial appearance, was fully expressed in the man, Christ.

Genesis 1:26 says ” And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness”.

Notice that it was God who said it. It was God who planned that man should be in image.

However, Adam, the first man, sinned and fell short of God’s glory and image, through disobedience. God sent Jesus, His Son, who is part of the Godhead to restore the image of God in man.

By accepting Jesus into your heart, daily walking with him we become more like Jesus. As we fellowship with Jesus who has all the fullness of the Godhead, God will accept us  back as adopted sons bearing His image because He sees Christ in us.

 Prayer Points 0102

Pray this prayer of appreciation to God for creating you as a human being carrying a body, soul and spirit from the depth of your heart. Also thank him for sending Jesus into the world to die for your sins.

 “Lord I bless your Holy Name. I worship you in the beauty of your Holiness. I magnify you Father, Son and Holy Spirit for creating me in your image and likeness. Thank you for giving me the precious gift of your Holy Spirit. Thank you making me complete in Christ who is the fullness of the Godhead. You are my Father, I have the mind of Christ and you have given me the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. I will not allow sin to rob me of your glory in my life. I will attain unto the full measure of Christ in my life in Jesus Name. I stand in you complete and reject every accusation of the enemy in Jesus Name. I work out my salvation with Godly fear in Jesus Name. Amen.”

 UNMERITED FAVOUR IN 2009 BECAUSE OF JESUS

 

Bible Nugget  0101  [Titus 2:11-14 KJV]

 

 11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, 12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

Happy new year to everyone in Jesus name. What are your expectations this new year. Personally, I look forward to a great year and I know it will be wonderful because of Jesus. He makes all the difference. He has not changed. If He did it last year and previous years for me, I know He will do it again. The Bible says He is the same yesterday and today and forever [Heb. 13:8]. Put your trust in Him and let us put Him to the test. He never, never fails. His grace will see you through, no matter how difficult the problem may be or insurmountable the mountain before you may look. His grace is always sufficient because grace is unmerited favour from God and His grace brings you in contact with Jesus, God’s only begotten Son. In this new year the grace of God will locate you in Jesus name.

Lets start the year right with God. For the unsaved, ask Jesus to come into your heart by faith.

For the saved, thank God for your salvation with this prayer.
