True Wisdom-Jack Blake

Saturday, May 04, 2024

Good Morning,

It is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Worldly wisdom mislabels things. Man labeled the message of the cross of Christ and the salvation that comes by His death as foolishness. (1 Corinthians 1.18,21,23). Human wisdom cannot stand against God and He affirms "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. (V19). Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (V20). The world does not know God. (v21). Worldly wisdom cannot compete with godly wisdom, for His so called foolishness is wiser than men. (V25). When the wise man, Solomon said " Get wisdom! Get understanding! in (Proverbs 4.5) He was speaking of godly and not worldly wisdom and understanding. For He continues in chapter 9. and verse 10, that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. So study the word of God to gain wisdom and understanding, for scripture tells us the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God (1 Corinthians 3.19) and your faith should not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. (1 Corinthians 2.5).

Culture vs God-Jack Blake

Good Morning,

Culture says: Hustle and sleep when you're dead.

God says: Rest in knowing that with God all things are possible. So walk on the pace of grace for your calling.

Culture says: You can't trust people, they will hurt you.

God says: The wrong people will hurt you, but the right people will heal you.

Culture says: Expose , shame, judge, and cancel.

God says: Expose, heal, correct, and redeem.

Culture says: Go where you're celebrated.

God says: Go where I called you to go. Everything you need is there. -Solo

Listen to God, not culture!

To my God a heart of flame, to my fellowman a heart of love, to myself a heart of steel. (Augustine of Hippo).

The Word of God-Jack Blake

Good Morning,

The word of God is powerful and sharper than any two edged sword and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart (Hebrews 4.12).  Every word of God is pure (Proverbs 30.5), and truth (John 17.17).  The gospel of Christ is the power of God to salvation for everyone (Romans 1.16).  Read it, study it, trust it, obey it.  It is a life changing experience.

Thank You, Father, for Your powerful word that will change the life of all who will believe and obey it.  Help us to study a portion of Your word each day that we might be prepared to give an answer for the hope that is in us.  And thank You for Jesus, our Savior and redeemer, for His church, and the blood He shed to purchase it.  In Jesus name we pray. AMEN

The word of God.

Greetings Brethren and Friends,

Every word written in God's inspired word (The Bible). is first of all pure, true, righteous and packed with His power.  His word is to be applied to the life of all who claim the name of Jesus and is to be carried to the world boldly by them.  The word of God is written and the gospel told in terms that even a child can understand.  So it makes one wonder why so many today are unwilling to open its pages and read the words of our Master.  My suspicion is that they are afraid because His word demands His will which may go against the things they want to do.

Father we pray that you will help Your children to mature in your word, apply it to their personal life and boldly tell it to the world. May hearts be softened and receptive to Your truths before it is too late.

In Jesus name, AMEN.

Try to do the right thing, cause you can't be wrong if you're doing it by the book!

Greetings Brethren and Friends,

There is an urgent need for us to return to the Bible for all our beliefs, preaching and practice.  We must with a true heart go back to God's word for what we believe, teach, preach, and practice in our daily lives.  Man has drifted away from the word of God and instead of obeying God's will, they twist His word to satisfy their own selfish desires. Religious division has reared its ugly head and division in the Lord's church has always been wrong (1 Corinthians 1.10).  The Lord hates those who sow discord among the brethren (Proverbs 6.19) and Jesus prayed that we would all be one as He and the Father are one (John 17.20,21).  Man made creeds, doctrines and practices. that are unscriptural and the disciple of Christ must avoid and expose them by all means and any cost.  Brethren it is time we got back to teaching, preaching and living the truths of God's word. 

Father, our prayer is, that You will help us to recognize all man made doctrines, creeds and practices, which contradict Your word.  Help us to boldly stand for Your word as it is written and against those who oppose it.

In Jesus Name we pray, AMEN.
