Developing 15 minutes alone with God…He who kneels before God can stand before anyone…

Developing 15 minutes alone with God…He who kneels before God can stand before anyone…

that we may be no longer children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error; but speaking truth in love, may grow up in all things into him, who is the head, even Christ...Ephesians 4:14-15.

Yea, and for this very cause adding on your part all diligence, in your faith supply virtue; and in your virtue knowledge; and in your knowledge self-control; and in your self-control patience; and in your patience godliness; and in your godliness brotherly kindness; and in your brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, they make you to be not idle nor unfruitful unto the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ...2 Peter 1:5-8.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control; against such there is no law. And they that are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with the passions and the lusts thereof....Galatians 5:22-24.

 

What will 15 minutes alone with God do for you and how do you spend it…

Prayer is the power to move the hand which moves the universe. Spend time in secret with the Father praying about your circumstances they will improve. Spend time alone reading or studying God’s word. When we pray we talk to God but when we read God talks to us. We can know the truth from God’s word when we read and have a knowledge of His will or word. Sing to God in your alone time with Him. A way to bless God is sing to Him.

 

Prayer

Father help us to grow in grace and stature with You and Your Son Jesus please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our sinful pasts please grant to us repentance and salvation…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Truth is stranger than fiction after all fiction has to make sense…

Truth is stranger than fiction after all fiction has to make sense…

And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are in health have no need of a physician; but they that are sick. I am not come to call the righteous but sinners to repentance (change)...Luke 5:31-32.


All things have been delivered unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth the Son, save the Father; neither doth any know the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth to reveal him. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke (teaching of truth) upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke (teaching) is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:27-30.


Repent ye therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, that so there may come seasons of refreshing from the presence of the Lord...Acts 3:19.


If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us...1 John 1:9-10.


We are sinners. We all have sinned and come short of the perfection or Glory of God. Jesus came and died on the cross and was raised from the dead to resurrect us to eternal life with the Father. Jesus will take your problems and help teach you the truth to solve your problems. Jesus will reveal the needed truth and all you have to do is practice the truth. You tired of lying and keeping up with what you told others…then tell the truth it is easier to remember.


Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs for truth in the inward parts and heal us and grant to us repentance of change so we can learn of Jesus and serve You in the truth in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Ever been tempted by the devil…

Ever been tempted by the devil…Jesus was…

And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led in the Spirit in the wilderness during forty days, being tempted of the devil. And he did eat nothing in those days: and when they were completed, he hungered. And the devil said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, command this stone that it become bread. And Jesus answered unto him, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone.

 

Forty days without eating and was asked to turn stones into bread. This appealed to His flesh and His position in life…for the devil said IF you be the Son of God. It also would have been pleasing to His eyes to see food after having not eaten and was hungry.

 

And he led him up, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. And the devil said unto him, To thee will I give all this authority, and the glory of them: for it hath been delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship before me, it shall all be thine. And Jesus answered and said unto him, It is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

 

Here satan tries to appeal to the position in life as well. He shows Jesus all the kingdoms of the world and basically says You will not have to die or suffer but I will make them do Your will. This would have also been pleasing to His eyes and His flesh.

 

And he led him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to guard thee: and, On their hands they shall bear thee up, Lest haply thou dash thy foot against a stone. And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God. And when the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him for a season...Luke 4:1-13.

 

Here satan tempts Jesus one last time. Again satan uses the word IF. IF You are the Son of God…tempting His position in life. Jesus would have to feel an angel and seen an angel also tempting His eyes and His flesh. Jesus responded with scripture and prevailed for you and me.

 

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the vainglory of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever...1 John 2:15-17.

 

The devil will tempt your flesh, your position or pride in who or what you are, and he will use the lust of the eyes to do it. Let us like Jesus respond with the written word of God and have a thus it is written…Just Like Jesus Did. We have to fill our minds with the word of God to quote the written word…let us study to show ourselves approved of God.

 

Prayer

Father please prevent and lead us not into temptation, trial, and testing. Please keep satan and his warfare away from us. Please keep us from being drawn by the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and the pride of life. We renounce satan and want nothing to do with him or his kingdom. Please quench all the fiery darts of your adversary and be jealous for us and our relationship with You and Your Only Son Jesus…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
