Matthew 10:18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
We put this problem on You Lord, deliver your servant and he will always rejoice and be strengthened in You Lord Jesus Christ, Amen
"48! And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.
49 One law shall be to him that is homeborn, and unto the stranger that sojourneth among you."
Also Leviticus 19:33-34, Leviticus 24:23, Matthew 23:15 etc
Ephesians 2:1-10
1. And you hath he quickened,who were dead in trespasses and sin.
2. Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.
3. Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
4. But God, who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us.
5. Even when we were dead in sins, (by grace ye are saved,)
6. And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
7. That in the ages to come He might shew the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.
8. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.
9. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
1 Timothy 6:11-16
11. But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness.
12. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
13. I urge you in the sight of God who gives life to all things, and before Christ Jesus who witnessed the good confession before Pontius Pilate,
14. That you keep this commandment without spot, blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ's appearing.
15. Which He will manifest in His own time, He who is blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings and Lord of lords.
16. Who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see, to whom be honor and everlasting power. Amen.
Then Satan tempted Jesus again and said I will give you all the cities in the world if you will fall down and worship me. Then Jesus said we worship God and him only do we worship.
Then Satan took Jesus on top of a building and Satan if thy jump off the top of this building the angels will come and catch thee and Jesus don't tempt the Lord thy God. So no just never sinned.
Dear Heavenly Father, I bring Jennifer before You tonight and ask that You will strengthen her with restful sleep and energy for tomorrow's work tasks and responsibilities. Keep the day from being too busy so that she is not overwhelmed or stressed from having so much to do but not enough time or help to accomplish the job she is wanting to do so well. We ask this in the name of Your Son, Jesus, Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Please come to B's aid in working in him/her forgiveness for those family and friends who have hurt and wronged B. Let B. see these people with compassion as You do, knowing that we, as sinful humans, are weak and brought low by our sinful nature. Teach B. to practice praying good things for these people whenever he/she thinks of them as well as making a conscious effort to love them with love that You supply. Heal the hurt and harm that has been done to B. and replace these with Your wonderful Presence and constant companionship. Father, we know that we cannot overcome these hard aspects of doing relationship on our own. We are relying on You to help us, grow us, teach us, change us, and create in us clean hearts and right spirits. Do this for B., those family and friends in his/her life and for me and my family members as well. We ask this of You Father, in the name of Your Son, Jesus. Amen.
I don't think so.
We're not sinners because we sinned.
We sin because we're sinners.
The sin nature don't enter you once you sin.
Psalms 51:5. Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Our sinful nature comes from the natural man. We inherited that nature NOT because we sinned! WE INHERITED THE NATURE TO SIN!
And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. 1 Corinthians 15:45-47.
Jesus was a life giving spirit from heaven.
Adam was made a living soul out of the dust of the ground.
If Adam would have never sinned he couldn't have given everlasting life.
Romans 5:14. Nevertheless DEATH REIGNED FROM ADAM TO MOSES, EVEN OVER THEM THAT HAD NOT SINNED AFTER THE SIMILITUDE OF ADAM'S TRANSGRESSION, who is the figure of him that was to come.
( WHO IS THE FIGURE OF HIM THAT WAS TO COME.) Jesus was to come into the world even before Adam sinned. Adam wasn't capable of living a sinless life.
When was Jesus the Lamb of God to take away the sins of the whole world? When he died on the cross?
BEFORE THE CROSS!
1 Peter 1:19-20. But with the precious blood of Christ, as of A LAMB WITHOUT BLEMISH AND WITHOUT SPOT:
Who verily WAS FOREORDAINED BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD,....( BUT WAS MANIFEST IN THESE LAST TIMES FOR YOU,)
Matthew 4:1 THEN WAS JESUS LED UP OF THE SPIRIT into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
Do you notice Satan didn't hunt down Jesus? Jesus was led by the Spirit to Satan. This was to prove he was the son of God and ONLY the son of God cannot sin because he is God. Here Satan is just used as an instrument.
1 John 3:9.
God bless.
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty ( Rev. 4:8). This aspect of the Lord which should characterize our daily praise was a topic a friend of mine from out of town who I'm visiting next week brought up. He; as I am is highly supportive of the "grace gospel" (i.e. God's sovereign plan of election giving no credit toward man for any of his own righteousness in being saved). It is true; however that many of our houses of worship are more caught up in an academic exercise when it comes to the "institutes of Calvin" than spending a time worshipping a Holy God who condescended to save any worms like me. ( Job 25:6). He; who is the creator of all things is above all; so that even the stars are impure in His sight ( Job 25:5).
There are truly heavenly joys that we cannot comprehend now. ( Psalm 16:11). Everyone; from Daniel and Isaiah and Ezekiel in the O.T. and John in Revelation fall in awe and wonder at His presence. It is a true statement that God is love ( 1 John 4:8); but we need to view this in light of 1 Cor. 13:4-8. We must; therefore also see His grace along with His judgments in light of His righteousness; and eternal omnipotence as the King of Kings; Lord of Lords. God does not change; and if we remain in Him we shall never be moved (see Proverbs 10:30). Heaven and earth will perish before one "jot and tittle" of the law perish ( Matthew 5:18). Since this is New Testament; surely this refers to the true meaning of the law and the motives of our hearts.
May we; although flawed be characterized by a unique reverence for God so we can be known as just men ( Matthew 1:19). To be salt and light; we must be distinct from the world and through the fear of the Lord comes the beginning of understanding ( Prov. 1:7; 9:10; etal). If we put to death the deeds of the flesh through the Spirit ( Colossians 3:5; Romans 8:13) then we can let His Spirit transform us ( Romans 12:2). Let us begin each day with praise. Agape; Rich P
Here are a few scriptures for, Fasting & prayer: Matthew 6:5-18, Mark 11:22-26, Luke 11:2-4, Luke 11:9-13,
Luke 18:10-17, Isaiah 58, Matthew 17:14-21, Mark 9:25-29,
Hopefully these are helpful
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
"Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Notice that God compares Himself to aShepherd. It demonstrates the love, care, and protection of God for his children; and it also demonstrates the utter helplessness of the child of God.
Thesheep simply cannot survive without a Shepherd. THE ROD WAS TO KEEP THE SHEEP IN THE SHEEPFOLD and keep them from going astray. This protected them from the enemy.
Also see.
John 10:11-15. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.
The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
Here's why this is so comforting.
John 10:27-30. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
I and my Father are one.
I hope this helps.
God bless.
