Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life fit for Heaven…

…Does the bible tell you how different age groups are supposed to behave…It is written…

Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

...Titus 1:15-16

1.      But speak thou the things which befit the sound doctrine: that aged men be temperate (self-control), grave (sincere), sober-minded, sound in faith, in love, in patience:

2.      That aged women likewise be reverent (respectful) in demeanor, not slanderers nor enslaved to much wine, teachers of that which is good; that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sober-minded, chaste (pure), workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed

3.      The younger men likewise exhort to be sober-minded: in all things showing yourself an ensample of good works; in your doctrine showing uncorruptness, gravity (being grounded), sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of us.

4.      Exhort (encourage) servants to be in subjection to their own masters (bosses), and to be well-pleasing to them in all things; not gainsaying (talking back); not purloining (not taking away from), but showing all good fidelity (faith); that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

...Titus 2:1-10

For the grace of God hath appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us, to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly and righteously and godly in this present world; looking for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ; who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a people for his own possession, zealous of good works.

...Titus 2:11-14

 

In the book of Titus there are four group of people Titus is told what to tell them to do to behave correctly so they may be zealous of good works fit for Heaven. The aged man…the aged woman…the younger men…and all servants or slaves. You fit in one of these categories when you read this how do you measure up to the prescription for Titus preaching? Perhaps start on one of the traits you need to work on today and begin creating a new habit…do you have any spiritual growth goals set or just hope you make it. Why not get in tentful and do more than intend on growing…make a planned effort. I heard it takes longer to lose a habit than begin on…just know without trying the pathway to hell is paved with good intentions.

 

Prayer

Father please help us by meeting our soul’s deepest needs so we can continue to become more like Jesus and have a character fit for heaven our home…we renounce satan and his kingdom please show us mercy and help us grow…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Thankful for freedom from the Patriot and Jesus shedding their own blood...

Dear fellow American Citizens

 

I want to take a few moments of your time to remember why America is great at these times of thanksgiving:

 

America is great because of the written rule of law established by our founding fathers

1.       Risked their own lives, liberty, in freeing us and themselves in their pursuit of happiness

2.       Signed the declaration of independence that declares we are all equal under our Creator

3.       Shed blood…their own and the lives of the tyrants they overthrew for liberty

America is great because of the fallen soldier who died so we can sleep at peace at night

1.       How many of us live in the memory of a fallen soldier or family member

2.       How many us know a brave volunteer willing to die to free ithers from evil

3.       The American Soldier shed his blood so we can sleep at peace at night

America is great because of the Freedoms guaranteed by the constitution and amendments

1.       America is great because great men and women have left us a written rule of law

2.       The first amendment:

a.       Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

3.       The Second Amendment:

a.       A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

 

I am grateful for the lives that have sacrificed so much so we can sleep in peace at night.

I am so grateful for the written rule of law that guarantees my freedoms here in America.

I am so grateful to the American Soldier and volunteers who stand against evil so we can live in peace.

I am so grateful for Jesus Christ who shed His blood so we can be forgiven and reconciled to You our Creator.

 

Prayer

Father I am thankful for the United States where I live, the Constitution, and the men and women that sustain the freedoms and rights guaranteed by the Constitution please meet our soul’s deepest needs and may the Constitution reign supreme here in America…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

As Christians are we told to be thankful...yes or no...


Now thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour (saving influence) of his knowledge by us in every place…I exhort (encourage)  therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men… And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him...In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you....2 Corinthians 2:14...1 Timothy 2:1...Colossians 3:17...1 Thessalonians 5:18

 

What does a man have he did not receive…did you choose your birth? Did you choose your parents? We did not determine when we were born…either our parents modest poor or rich…we did not choose our raising…but we did choose Jesus when we were baptized, Who is the greatest dad a person can have. Do you want to be adopted into the family of God and have Jesus as the Good Shepherd overseeing your soul…yes or no? Then you must believe Jesus died and was raised from the dead and then be baptized for the remission of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Will you be baptized into Christ…yes or no? Jesus said after His resurrection… He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned...Mark 16:16.

 

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep...John 10:7-11. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God...John 1:12-13. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God...Romans 8:15-16.

 

Prayer

Father thank you for adopting me and all those who have been baptized into Christ…thank you for all the things you have given us known and unknown and please forgive us and meet our soul’s deepest needs for gratitude…for being adopted into your family…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
