Christ's gained a triumphant victory over sin and death on the Cross, which climaxed with His glorious resurrection from the dead... and this verse gives insight into what His glorious resurrection means for all who are in Christ. Every member of Christ's Body will be transformed, spirit, soul, and body, and this perishable body will be changed into an imperishable body, and this mortal will put on immortality. "But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." Our United Prayer:
Loving Father, how much we love You and praise Your name for ever and ever. We are not worthy to pick up the crumbs under Your table and yet You have raised us up and seated us together with Christ Jesus in heavenly places - by sending Your only begotten Son to pay the incredible price for our sins and to break the power of death in our lives. We praise Your name for ever and ever. All glory and honor be Yours for ever and ever, AMEN. Like Christ we too are to walk in spirit and in truth, and to live our lives in total submission and humble obedience to the indwelling, Holy Spirit of God. Like our heavenly Lord, we too are to become a servant of all, without fear and without favor.. without prejudice and without discrimination - without cultural bigotry, perceived biases or hidden prejudices, so that in Him we bring glory of His holy name - and bring souls into His everlasting kingdom. "My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory." Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we pray that Jesus may be seen in us and we pray that in the power of the Holy Spirit.. all we say and do will be done to Your honor and glory, in Whose name we pray, AMEN. For the unbeliever, this is a shocking truth that many seek to ignore or dismiss, but it is a sure fact in the future for all who do not believe. Our Lord Jesus shared our human frailty so that He could willingly give His life as a ransom for all who believe on His name. He shared our humanity so we could share in His life. It is appointed for man to die once, but for the Christian, Christ's death became our death, and the judgement of God's wrath was poured out on Him instead of us. Death has lost its sting because Christ paid the price for sin on our account and was judged in our place. "And just as it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment," Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, what a sobering verse this is, knowing that all mankind will be judged. Thank You that our judgement will be at the Seat with all other believers, where no judgement is given because Christ paid the price for sin on our account and was judged in our place. When we think of the Great Judgement of all unbelievers we shudder, because those who did not trust Christ and receive His free gift of salvation will be judged and thrown into the lake of fire. May we freely tell all we meet of Jesus' free gift so that many will trust Him and partake in the Judgement as believers. As for us, we pray that we may live a life that is honoring to You so that at the time of Judgement we may receive rewards and not suffer loss of rewards. In Jesus' name, AMEN. A little but important message of hope. These encouraging words point to a time beyond the coming Tribulation. It looks beyond the time of troubles to a day when the New Covenant, which God promised will be fully and finally ratified and implemented in the promised kingdom rule of Christ. "Call to Me and I will answer you," are God's words of encouragement to the weary. "Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known." Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that You are a good and faithful God Whose Word stands fast forever and ever. Thank You that all Your promises to us remain in Christ Jesus our Lord. Thank You that You are a listening God Who hears the calls and cries of Your people, and thank You for the many precious promises that will never fail, because You are faithful and true to Your Word. It is wonderful to know that the faithful of God, were prepared to endure mocking, loneliness, imprisonment, and rejection, so we might have the holy Scriptures which guide us into all truth. And thank You that Jesus came to be our substitute for sin and endure the pain and suffering of the Cross so that we might live and reign with Him forever. Praise Your holy name! AMEN. Today it is the gospel of the grace of God that the Church has been called to preach - a message that has been faithfully proclaimed for 2000 years. A message that will continue to be taught to a lost and dying world until Jesus comes to take us to be with Himself - the gospel that proclaims that Christ died for the sins of the whole world ..that He rose again and is seated at the right hand of the Father, so that whosever believes on HIM will not perish but have everlasting life. With the declining trend in Christianity today, We Need An Ongoing World Revival, one that never ceases until the day the Lord comes. "And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come." Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You that the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. Thank You that we have been saved through our faith in Christ and that the day is coming when all nations will once again proclaim the Gospel of the Kingdom to a lost and dying world. We pray that a multitude without number will be saved during that time of terrible tribulation - and we will give You all the glory and praise for Your goodness and grace to the children of all, in Jesus name we pray, AMEN. |
