Jesus said ‘Watch and Pray Always’

In Luke 21:36, Jesus warns the whole world to watch and “pray always , that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass ,and to stand before the Son of Man”

Are you worthy to escape what Jesus says will come upon the world ? Read chapter 21 of  the book of Luke and you will see that Jerusalem was destroyed by king Titus ,and now at the end of time , Satan ,the devil is full of wrath because he knows that his time is short (Revelation 12:12)

 Colossians 3:1-6 ¶If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2  Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

3  For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

4  When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

5  ¶Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

6  For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

When you are praying for the victory over the devil, the devil will do everything in his power to get to set your mind on some earthly or some vile experience that you have had in the past. The devil works on your old memory, which if you go there, it will weaken your ability, or even causes you to completely lose your chance to get the victory that you have set your prayer out to receive.

The devil knows as well as God knows that the world loves darkness more than light , the light of God, which is the word of God. So the responsibility of Godly men and women  is  to study and live by the word of God and pray day and night ,continuously until Jesus’ return.      Amen!!!

TEACH THE WORD!

The teaching of God’s word is a responsibility of every believer, one of the reasons the early church was able to reach their then known world is: believers took upon themselves this responsibility. From the beginning of Biblical history God commanded His people to teach His word:

6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.(Deuteronomy 6:6-7)

And the servant of the Lord must be able to teach (2 Timothy 2:24).

The Bible says , we should extend the knowledge of God to others , who are to also continue the process by teaching others too!

2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.(2 Timothy 2:2).

Each person taught is to teach others who are also able to teach , this is is the pattern of continuous teaching that will rapidly multiply to spread this gospel of the kingdom of God through out the world – It works because it  was given a try by the early church , the internet is one the tools we can use in this age.

Thanks , may God richly bless you, as you continue in His will.

JESUS’ BAPTISM !– WAS IT NECESSARY?

Jesus took the sins of the world upon himself by being baptized by John the Baptist (Mathew 3:15)this baptism that Jesus received from John was to bear all the iniquities of the people of this world .That’s why John in the first place not knowing the idea behind this said to Jesus “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” John was the representative of mankind in this .

There are some people, who misunderstood the baptism of Jesus and mistakenly think that He was baptized to show us His humility, but this is not the case; the baptism that Jesus received from John is the work of salvation through which He took the sins of mankind upon Himself. 1 John 5:4-6 tells us that Jesus’ baptism was and is essential to our salvation. 1 Peter 3:21 “The like figure where unto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:”

The baptism of Jesus, the suffering and crucifixion on the cross; all were part of the salvation plan in Christ’s ministry. 1 John 3:23 “And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment”.

What is it that every one in this world ought to be the most? It is to become the sinless children of God , the Bible tells us that for us to become so , we must believe in the word that Jesus paid our  price and blotted out all our sins and iniquities through His being baptized , suffering and shedding  blood on the cross. The gates of heaven have been opened a long time ago, but if we fail to believe in the word of God Jesus Christ and live by it, we won’t enter in!

ACTS 13 :39 "And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
 40 Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
 41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.

 

If you'd like to receive Jesus as your savior and Lord , just say the prayer below

My Lord and my God, have mercy upon my soul, a sinner; I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of the living God (John 3:16).I believe that he died on the cross and shed his precious blood for the forgiveness of all my sins (Luke 23:33). I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit and that he sits on the right hand of God at this moment, Hearing my confession of sin and this prayer.
I open up the door of my heart and i invite you into my heart , Lord Jesus , wash all my filthy sins away in the precious blood that you shed in my place on the cross at Calvary .You will not turn me away  , you will forgive my sins and save my soul because your word says so.I know that you've heard me , I know that you've answered me and i know that am saved .
