Benefits For God’s People, 37

 ~ God Renews Your Strength ~

 

Series Information ~ The Bible is full of promises to those who have trusted in God as their only true source of salvation.  Most of the 100+ posts in this series are exclusively for God’s family.  These postings are far from an exhaustive list!  It is important to realize you are not a member of God’s family unless you have made a specific intentional decision to trust Jesus Christ as your savior.  If you have not done that or are not sure if you have then I suggest you settle it today. Here is a good website which will help you: https://www.focusonthefamily.com/faith/what-must-i-do-to-be-saved/ 

 

Series Theme Scripture ~ “For as many as are the promises of God, they all find their Yes [answer] in Him [Christ].  For this reason we also utter the Amen (so be it) to God through Him [in His Person and by His agency] to the glory of God” (2 Corinthians1:20 amp).

 

This Post Scripture ~ “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31).

Traits Of A Godly Person, 5

 

~ A Person Of God Is Courageous ~

 

Series Note  ~  There are many qualities which God desires in His children.  In this series we will briefly cover a few of the major ones.

 

Scripture  ~  “After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, it came to pass that the Lord spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ assistant, saying: ‘Moses My servant is dead.  Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them — the children of Israel.  Every place that the sole of your foot will tread upon I have given you, as I said to Moses.  From the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river, the River Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your territory.  No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you.  I will not leave you nor forsake you.  Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.  Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.  This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it.  For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.  Have I not commanded you?  Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go’” (Joshua 1:1-9.

God Attribute, 187

 

~ God Seeks ~

 

This Series ~ This series of posts looks at some of the many attributes of God.  Generally, we move in alphabetical order.

 

Scripture ~ “And Jesus said to him, "Today salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:9-10).

 

“For the Son of Man [Jesus] has come to save that which was lost. ‘What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine and go to the mountains to seek the one that is straying?  And if he should find it, assuredly, I say to you, he rejoices more over that sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish’” (Matthew 18:11-14).

 

Quote ~ “So long as we imagine it is we who have to look for God, we must often lose heart. But it is the other way about — He is looking for us.” ~ Simon Tugwell

The Most Important Part of Any Race Is the Finish Line!

 

“CHRIST’S DISCIPLE: How To Finish Strong”

 

What If You Could Gain Control Over Your Repetitive Sin?

 

☆☆☆☆☆ “I found this book to be an easy to follow and easy to understand guide to discipleship ... I loved the visual of the pyramid and building blocks to growth. It helped both to understand how each area of growth grows upon one another and helped to keep grounded in process. I also loved how everything taught was scripture based. Good book to explain the process of spiritual growth.” ~D. Chatley (Amazon review)

 

A timely book for those who long for faster, more consistent spiritual growth.

 

In today’s Christian communities many are complacent in their ultimate destination and they neglect the importance of the journey. In so doing, they are missing out on many of the here and now benefits of their adoption into the family of God. The normal (not average) Christian is growing more like Jesus Christ as they continue their life on earth. If you long to be a disciple who brings a smile to God’s face, this book is for you.

Ten, 7

 

~ Ten Stands, 3 ~

 

Introduction ~ This series is about portions of Scripture which specifically mention ten (10) items. (I am aware that there are those in my readership who are into Biblical numerology.) All Scripture is from the New American Standard (Updated) unless otherwise specified (emphasis added). The Scripture below is one of many passages which specifically mention ten of something.

 

Scripture ~ “He made ten basins of bronze, one basin held forty baths; each basin was four cubits, and on each of the ten stands was one basin” (1 Kings 7:38).  

 

Numerology ~ Scripture numerologists often refer to the number ten as referring to as fullness or completeness. Following is one explanation:

 

“In connection with five, and as very near akin to it in meaning, we may take ten.  It is but five times two, as I have already said.  The ten fingers and toes are plainly so, and they give us respectively man’s capacity for action and competence for an upright walk.  But the measure of capacity is that of responsibility, and the measure of responsibility is that of judgment or of reward.  Thus ten plagues fell upon Egypt.

 

“The Ten Commandments are on the two tables of testimony, the measure, on the divine side, of man’s responsibility.

 

“In the kingdom of the ten tribes …

 

“The ten toes of the image in Nebuchadnezzar’s vision enable the feet to stand firm – are what answer to the ten horns upon the fourth beast in that of the prophet – again the measure of power.

 

“In the ten virgins of the parable, responsibility is enforced; and here they are five wise, five foolish.  The testimony here is that of the bridegroom’s return.

 

“Finally, in the tithe demanded by God in Israel, we have the whole (of whatever it might be) looked at as composed of ten parts, the measure of responsibility, of which God takes one in token of His sovereignty.” –F.W. Grant

Man of God, 3

 

~ Loyal ~

 

Series Introduction ~ As you consider each of the characteristics of a person of God it would be wise to examine yourself to see how you measure up.

 

Scripture ~ “Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed to the Lord, and said, ‘Remember now, O Lord, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what is good in Your sight’” (Isaiah 38:2-3a).

 

“A man who has friends must himself be friendly, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24).
