Why I Love Jesus-Jack Blake
Saturday, January 11, 2025Christ Eternal
Good Morning, Want to know why I love Jesus? He is the eternal one, the son of man, the Son of God, He is my joy and gives me peace of mind. He is supreme and in Him I am complete. He is our only hope, our great and glorious Lord, the provider of all good things. He laid down His life for us that we might have forgiveness of sins and a more abundant life in Him. He was given by God the only name by which we can be saved. He is the way the truth and the life, and the only way to the Father is through Him. Father, this morning we humbly stand before Your throne to give You thanks for Your Son Jesus, the eternal Christ, and savior of the world who has the words of life. We thank thee for the joy we find in serving Him, our risen savior. May we never be ashamed to tell others of His soul saving gospel. Help us, Father, each day to take up our cross and follow Him. In His precious name we pray, AMEN.
The Grace of God-Jack Blake
Thursday, January 09, 2025Good Morning, For the grace of God has appeared bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and savior Christ Jesus, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds. These things speak and exhort and reprove with all authority. Let no one disregard you. Titus 2.11-15.
Take His Yoke upon You-Jack Blake
Wednesday, January 08, 2025Good Morning, "Come unto Me all you who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." Thus says the Lord, Matthew 11.28-30. As disciples of Christ we should encourage one another more to step away from the noise of this broken, wicked world and humbly turn our full attention to the merciful, faithful, loving God of the Bible and His beloved Son, Jesus the Christ, who gave His life so our sins which we repent of can be forgiven. WE need to turn our eyes upon Jesus with trust and obedience to His will.

Wednesday, January 01, 2025Good Morning, I stand alone in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene, for He took my sins and my sorrows and made them His very own, then bore them on the cross at Calvary where He suffered and died alone. Jesus paid it all and to Him I owe my all. We should be thankful for the blessings, joy and peace we have in Jesus. Let us diligently study His word to increase our knowledge and faith to help us draw nearer to Him and fully appreciate His amazing grace. Pray for strength to overcome our weaknesses. Turn your eyes upon Jesus and have a happy new year everyone.
The gospel of Jesus the Christ-Jack Blake
Wednesday, December 25, 2024Good Morning, and Merry Christmas to friends of God and disciples of Jesus, the beloved Son of God. I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation. Romans 1.16. The gospel of Christ is the message of salvation from our sins, Luke 24,46,47. It is for the penitent, Matthew 4.17, all who have eyes that see and ears that hear the seriousness of their betraying the Father and mourn, Matthew 5.4, and hunger and thirst for righteousness, Matthew 5.6. They embrace the good news of the gospel that is offered in Christ, those who believe and confess openly that Christ is indeed the savior sent by the Father from above, Romans 10.9-10, and are eager to be buried with Christ in baptism so their sins might be forgiven, Acts 2.38. For the rest of their lives they live in newness of life, Romans 6.4 watching and waiting for the return of Christ and their eternal life with God, 2 Peter 3.10-13; 1 John 3.2-3.
