Departing from God-Jack Blake

Saturday, May 11, 2024

Good Morning,

To depart from God does not change the will of God. To depart from the teachings of Jesus is to depart from the reason for His coming. It is possible for men, even Christians to become weak in their faith and depart from God and return to the world with its wicked ways. Maybe this is why Paul warns, let him who thinks he stands, take heed lest he fall. (1 Corinthians 10.12). Paul was aware that even he could be a victim of departing from God, for he said: "I keep under my body and bring it into subjection lest that by any means when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. (1 Corinthians 9.27). Each individual is responsible and shall give an account of himself to God. (Romans 14.12; 2 Corinthians 5.10). Pray this not be the case, examine yourself daily to see if there might be in your heart any signs of weakness that would result in departing from our God. Stand firm on His word, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. (1 Corinthians 15.58).

Compromise the Spirit-Jack Blake

Friday, May 10, 2024

Good Morning,

In Judges 21.25, we read "everyone did what was right in his own eyes." And in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 Paul gives warning that in the last days. (in which we are living) perilous times will come: men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, head strong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of GOD, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! Friends and brethren, sin is active and on the move, it is never satisfied. Spiritual compromise always leads to moral corruption.

Father, thank You for Jesus and for Your word. Help Your obedient faithful children to not be deceived by cruel, unfaithful men of this ungodly and perverse generation. Keep us in Your protection, and give us strength to endure the ways of the world. In Jesus name, AMEN

Faith-Jack Blake

Good Monday Morning,

Paul told Timothy and by extension, us also, to be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, IN FAITH, in purity. ( 1 Timothy 4.12). Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance OF FAITH, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water (Hebrews 10.22). Jesus the Christ, our lord, savior and protector, is the author and the finisher OF OUR FAITH, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand throne of God. (Hebrews 12.2). Therefore leaving the discussion of the elementary principals, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and OF FAITH toward God. (Hebrews 6.1). FAITH is the glorious victory that overcomes the world. But this FAITH must be an obedient FAITH. For FAITH without works is dead. (James 2.20).

Farther, increase our faith, give us knowledge and understanding. of your word as we study to show ourselves approved by You. Help us Father to never waver from our faith which gives us hope and inspiration.. In Jesus name, we pray AMEN!

Be Sober, Be Vigilant-Jack Blake

Monday, April 22, 2024

Good Morning

If we, as disciples of Christ, are to stand against the wiles of our adversary, the devil, who walks among us, we must be sober minded and vigilant at all times knowing that we too can be taken in by his lying deceitful ways.  He is always looking for ways to attack not only us but also our children with immoral principals of lustful, fleshly, sinful ideals and passions which war against the soul and can weaken our faith.  Now is the time when we must be bold and courageous humbling ourselves under the mighty hand of God as we fight for our faith fighting not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, and rulers of darkness in this age and against spiritual hosts of wickedness in heavenly places. (See Ephesians 6.12).  We must be loyal and true to Christ, abhorring all evil and clinging to what is good, not being overcome with evil but always doing what is good.  For whoever rewards evil for good, evil will not depart from his house. (Proverbs 17.13).

A People-Jack Blake

Saturday, April 13, 2024

Greetings, Brethren,

We were once not a people but are now the people of God who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy (1 Peter2.10).  Now therefore, IF you will indeed OBEY My voice and KEEP My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people, for all the earth is Mine and you shall be to Me a Kingdom of priests and a holy nation (Exodus 19.5,6).  We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own special people, that we may proclaim the praises of Him who called us from darkness (sin) into His marvelous light (righteousness) (1 Peter 2.9).  Also read Revelation 1.5,6.  Brethren, be careful out there for the eyes of the world are watching us and their ears are hearing us to confirm if we are truly God's people.  Therefore, be filled with the Spirit, walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time.  Understand what the will of the Lord is because the days are evil (Ephesians 5.15-17).
