Seek The Lord While He Maybe Found

"Seek the Lord while He may be found;
Call on Him while He is near.
Let the wicked forsake his way
and the evil man his thoughts.
Let him turn to the Lord, and He
will have mercy on him, and to our
God, for He will freely pardon.

For My thoughts are not your thoughts
neither are your ways My ways,
declares the Lord.
As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are My ways higher than your ways
and My thoughts than your thoughts."
Isaiah 55: 6-9

Seek the Lord while He may still be found and freely accept the forgiveness for your sins. There will come a time when heaven's gate will be seemingly closed to sinners and the message of salvation will no longer be heard nor felt amidst the great tribulation that will befall the earth.

The Shepherd And His Flock

"I am the good Shepherd; I know my sheep
and my sheep know Me- just as the Father
knows Me and I know the Father-
And I lay down My life for the sheep.

I have other sheep that are not of this
sheep pen. I must bring them also.
They too will listen to My voice,
and there shall be one flock and one
shepherd.

The reason why my Father loves Me
is that I lay down my life- only to take
it up again. No one takes it from Me,
but I lay it down of my own accord.

I have authority to lay it down and
authority to take it up again.
This command I received from My Father."
John 10: 14-18


There are other sheep that are not of the sheep pen of the Lord. Let us pray and cooperate with the Good Shepherd to bring them into the sheep pen of the Lord. They too will listen to His voice and as the Lord has ordained, eventually, there shall be but one flock and one Shepherd.

Our Heavenly Dwelling

"Now we know that if the earthly tent
we live in is destroyed, we have a
building from God, an eternal house in
heaven, not built by human hands.

Meanwhile we groan, longing to be
clothed with our heavenly dwelling,
because when we are clothed, we
will not be found naked.

For while we are in this tent, we
groan and are burdened, because
we do not wish to be unclothed
but to be clothed with our heavenly
dwelling, so that what is mortal may
be swallowed up by life.

Now it is God who has made us
for this very purpose and has
given us the Spirit as a deposit,
guaranteeing what is to come."

2 Corinthians 5: 1-5

While we are with our physical bodies, we groan from all the trials and burdens in life. We struggle to keep in step with our sole purpose in life- to please God and give glory to His name. So that when our earthly lives are over, we will be clad in our glorious heavenly bodies to be with the Lord forevermore in His heavenly abode.

The Lord Reigns, Let The Earth Rejoice

"Say among the nations, 'The Lord reigns.'
The world is firmly established, it cannot
be moved.
He will judge the peoples with equity.

Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;
let the sea resound, and all that is in it;
let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them.

Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy,
they will sing before the Lord, for He comes,
He comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness
And the peoples in His truth."

Psalm 96: 10- 13

The Lord reigns over all the world, let the earth rejoice and the children of God be glad. He will come to bring judgment to the world and rescue the elect. There will be complete joy and singing for those who are in the Lord. Praise and glory be to His name.

Living As Children Of Light

"Let no one deceives you with empty words,
for because of such things God's wrath
comes on those who are disobedient.
Therefore do not be partners with them.

For you were once darkness, but now you
are light in the Lord.
Live as children of light (for the fruit of the
light consists in all goodness, righteousness
and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord.

Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds
of darkness, but rather expose them.
For it is shameful even to mention what
the disobedient do in secret.
But everything exposed by the light becomes
visible, for it is light that makes everything visible.

Ephesians 5:6-14

Let us live as children of light and not as children of darkness. Let us become the light of the world that will illuminate the lost and wandering souls to the path of light and righteousness in Christ Jesus until there is but one flock and one Shepherd.

Love Each Other As I Have Love You

"My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his
life for his friends.
You are my friends if you do what I command.
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not
know his master's business.
Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I
have learned from my Father I have made known to you.

You did not choose Me but I chose you to go and bear
fruit- fruit that will last.
Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in My name.
This is my command: Love each other."
John 15: 12-17

The Lord commanded us to love one another as much as He loves us. That is the sign of the children of God in this depraved world; that they love one another as Christ loves them. Then the Father will give us whatever we ask Him in the name of Jesus.

Jesus - The Salvation And Light Of The World

"For God so loved the world that He gave
His one and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish but
have eternal life.

For God did not send His son into the
world to condemn the world, but to
save the world through Him.

Whoever believes in Him is not
condemned, but whoever does not
believe stands condemned already
because he has not believed in the
name of God's one and only Son.

This is the verdict: Light has come
into the world, but men loved
darkness instead of light because
their deeds were evil.

Everyone who does evil hates the
light, and will not come into the
light for fear that his deeds will
be exposed.

But whoever lives by the truth
comes into the light, so that it
may be seen plainly that what he has
done has been done through God."

John 3: 16- 21

Godly Wisdom

"Who is wise and understanding among you?
Let him show it by his good life, by deeds
done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition
in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.
Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven
but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil.
For where you have envy and selfish ambition,
there you find disorder and every evil practice.

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all
pure, then peaceloving, considerate, submissive,
full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.
Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of
righteousness."
James 3: 13- 18

Let us strive to receive godly wisdom from the Holy Spirit, the source of all true love, power and wisdom. True and godly wisdom comes from above and is endowed by God to all who are submissive and are humble of heart to the Lord.

Made Alive In Christ

"As for you, you were dead in your
transgressions and sins, in which
you used to live when you followed
the ways of this world and the ruler
of the kingdom of the air, the spirit
who is now at work in those who
are disobedient.

All of us also lived among them at
one time, gratifying the cravings of
our sinful nature and following its
desires and thoughts.
Like the rest, we were by nature
objects of wrath.

But because of His great love for us,
God who is rich in mercy, made us
alive with Christ even when we were
dead in transgressions- it is by grace
you have been saved.

And God raised us up with Christ
and seated us with Him in the
heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
in order that in the coming ages
He might show the incomparable
riches of His grace, expressed in His
kindness to us in Christ Jesus.

For it is by grace you have been saved,
through faith- and this not from yourselves,
it is the gift of God- not by works,
so that no one can boast.

For we are God's workmanship, created
in Christ Jesus to do good works,
which God prepared in advance for us
to do."

Ephesians 2: 1-10


Salvation is never by good works alone. It is by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms. Isn't that wonderful! We are where Christ is seated at the right hand of the Father. Is there anything more wonderful than this revelation? And so we shine with the righteousness, the holiness and glory of Christ within us. For we are already dead to transgressions and alive in Jesus Christ alone.

Wonderfully Made

"For you created my inmost being;
You knit me together in my mother's
womb.
I praise You because I am fearfully
and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful, I know
that full well.

My frame was not hidden from You
When I was made in the secret place.
When I was woven together in the
depths of the earth,
Your eyes saw my unformed body.

All the days ordained for me were
written in your book, before one of
them came to be."

"Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting."

Psalm 139: 13-16 and 23-24


We are wonderful creatures because God formed us in His secret chamber. God ordained all the days of our lives because we are special to Him. Let us become the wonderful creations that He purposed us to be.

Do Not Love The World

"Do not love the world or anything in the world.
If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father
is not in him.
For everything in the world- the cravings of sinful
man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what
he has and does- comes not from the Father but
from the world.
The world and its desires pass away, but the man who
does the will of God lives forever."

1John 2: 15-17

We can live in this world but not of this world. We are pilgrims here in a strange land of sin and wickedness and our true home is with our Father in heaven which our Lord Jesus Christ has prepared for us in advance.

Dead To Sin, Alive In Christ

"In the same way, count yourselves
dead to sin but alive to God in Christ
Jesus.
Therefore do not let sin reign in your
mortal body so that you obey its evil
desires.

Do not offer the parts of your body to
sin, as instruments of wickedness,
but rather offer yourselves to God, as
those who have been brought from
death to life; and offer the parts of your
body to Him as instruments of
righteousness.

For sin shall not be your master,
because you are not under law, but
under grace."

Romans 6: 11-14



We are now dead to sin and alive in Jesus Christ. Let us offer the parts of our bodies to Him as our living sacrifice- holy and pleasing to God. Let us all become holy because the one who called us is holy.

Trust In The Lord

"Trust in the Lord and do good
dwell in the land and enjoy safe
pasture.
Delight yourself in the Lord
and He will give you the desires
of your heart.

Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in Him and He will do this:
He will make your righteousness
shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the
noonday sun."

Psalm 37: 3-6


Let us put our trust in the Lord and He will sustain us in all our needs. Delight in the Lord and He will give us the desires of our hearts. Those who trust in the Lord will never be put to shame. They will be upheld by the Lord in times of need.

True Fasting

"Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen:
to loose the chains of injustice and untie the
the cords of the yoke,
to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?

Is it not to share your food with the hungry
and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter-
when you see the naked, to clothe him,
and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?

Then your light will break forth like the dawn,
and your healing will quickly appear;
then your righteousness will go before you,
and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.

Then you will call, and the Lord will answer;
you will cry for help and He will say: Here am I."

Isaiah 58: 6-9


This is the essence of true fasting. After we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and personal savior, we must perform our acts of kindness and love so that people will see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven.

We Are A New Creation

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ
he is a new creation; the old has
gone, the new has come!

All this is from God, who reconciled
us to Himself through Christ and
gave us the ministry of reconciliation;

That God was reconciling the world to
Himself in Christ, not counting men's
sins against them. And He has
committed to us the message of reconciliation.

We are therefore Christ's ambassadors,
as though God were making His appeal
through us.
We implore you on Christ's behalf:
Be reconciled to God.

God made Him who had no sin to be sin
for us, so that in Him we might become
the righteousness of God."
2 Corinthians 5: 17-21

We are a new creation. There is now no condemnation for those who are in Jesus Christ. So let us throw away our old sinful self. It is already dead in sins. We are now gloriously alive in Christ's righteousness, love and joy.

Praise God For A Living Hope

"Praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ!
In His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living
hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade-
kept in heaven for you who through faith are shielded by God's
power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed
in the last time.

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may
have to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.

These have come so that your faith- of greater worth than gold,
which perishes even though refined by fire- may be proved to be
genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus
Christ is revealed."

1Peter 1: 3-7

We maybe carrying such heavy budens right now but they will last only for a little while. We are just being tested by God so we will be worthy of the great glory that He will reveal to us when He returns to this world.

Be Holy, For The Lord Your God Is Holy

"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
a people belonging to God , that you may declare the praise of Him
who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.

Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God;
Once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world,
to abstain from sinful desires which war against your soul.

Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse
you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify
God on the day He visits us."

1 Peter 2: 9-12


Live such holy and godly lives showing your good deeds to all that they may praise your Father in heaven. Do everything for the glory of God and live your lives in order to please Him. Then you will shine like bright stars in the firmament of heaven.

Fear Of The Lord

"Praise the Lord.

Blessed is the man who fears the Lord,
who finds great delight in His commands.

His children will be mighty in the land;
each generation of the upright will be blessed.
Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his righteousness endures forever.

Even in the darkness, light dawns for the upright,
for the gracious and compassionate and righteous
man.

God will come to him who is generous and lends
freely,
who conducts his affairs with justice.
Surely he will never be shaken;
a righteous man will be remembered forever."

Psalm 112: 1-6



The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. When we see the Lord in His awesome power and might, we are filled with reverential awe and fear of Him who created the vast universe which knows no limit. Wisdom, power, love, riches and glory await those who have a reverential fear of the Lord.

Light Of The World, Salt Of The Earth

"You are the salt of the earth
But if the salt loses its saltiness,
how can it be made salty again?
It is no longer good for anything
except to be thrown out and trampled
by men.

You are the light of the world.
A city on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a lamp and
put it under a bowl.
Instead they put it on a stand, and it
gives light to everyone in the house.
In the same way, let your light shine
before men, that they may see your
good deeds and praise your Father in
heaven."

Matthew 5: 13-16



Good works alone will never save us for that task was solely placed on the shoulders of our Lord Jesus Christ. But after we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and personal savior, we are admonished by God to become the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We must do our good deeds and examples of righteousness
for the Lord that His name will be glorified in all the earth.

"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and
falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven,
for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were
before you."

Matthew 5: 1-12


The Lord will take care of us in all our needs. We need only to be humble before Him, walk in His ways and acknowledge Him before men. Though we experience temporary pains and sufferings in this world, yet the Lord shall rescue us and vindicate us from all the evils that men will do against us.

Jesus, The Bread Of Life

Then Jesus declared, I am the bread of life.
He who comes to Me will never go hungry,
And he who believes in Me will never be thirsty.

All that the Father gives Me will come to Me
And whoever comes to Me I will never drive away.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me,
That I shall lose none of all that He has given Me,
But raise them up at the last day.

For My Father's will is that everyone who looks
to the Son and believes in Him shall have
eternal life,
And I will raise him up at the last day."

John 6: 35, 37, 39, 40



Jesus is the true bread of life. He who comes to Him will never be driven out. He will be sustained by the eternal love of God and will be raised to life at the last day.
He will enjoy eternal life with God forevermore.

The Suffering Servant

"Surely He took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows,
Yet we consider Him stricken by God, smitten by Him, and afflicted.

But He was pierced for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him,
And by His wounds we are healed.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all."

Isaiah 53: 4-6


Jesus already paid the full price for our salvation. He who knows no sin became sin for us so that we can approach the Father without any condemnation. All that we have to do is accept the grace of salvation by accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and personal savior and surrendering our lives to Him. When Jesus Christ uttered one of His last words on the cross and said, "It is finished," He meant just that.

Doing Good To All

"Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.
The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap
destruction;
the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal
life.

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will
reap a harvest if we do not give up.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially
to those who belong to the family of believers."

Galatians 6: 7-10


Let us do good to all irregardless of the circumstances. Our good deeds become the sweet fruits of our tree that gives glory and honor to God wherever we may go. We must do good even if our good deeds are unappreciated or even twisted that we are accused of false motives. God sees the heart and He knows our motives even if others accuse us of wrong motives. In due time, we will receive a crown that will last.

Practice Not Idolatry


"And God spoke all these words:
I am the Lord your God, who brought
you out of Egypt, out of the land of
slavery.

You shall have no other gods before Me.

You shall not make for yourself an idol in
the form of anything in heaven above or
on the earth below.
You shall not bow down to them or worship
them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous
God, punishing the children for the sin
of the fathers to the third and fourth generation
of those who hate Me, but showing love to
thousands who love me and keep my commandments.

You shall not misuse the name of the Lord
your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone
guiltless who misuses His name."

Exodus 20: 1-7


Is it any wonder why there are so much suffering and pains in the world? Innocent and young children suffer generational curses because of the abominable sins of their parents and grandparents. Bowing and kneeling down and praying to idols are all forms of worship. If we do this to anybody except to the one and only true God of the universe and the whole creation, we reap for ourselves and for our children and grandchildren up to the fourth generation, extreme curses and condemnation from heaven.

He who watches over you will not
slumber;
indeed, He who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord watches over you-
the Lord is your shade at your
right hand;
the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all harm-
He will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your
coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Do Not Love The World

"Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world- the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does- comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever."

(1John 2: 15-17)



We can be in this world but not of this world. We can treat this world as just a temporary place we pass through as pilgrims and strangers, for our final destination is our Father's kingdom where the Lord has prepared a place for each of us. The works of this world are sinful and corrupt just like rust that slowly corrupts the metal until it is no longer good for anything but is just thrown away as scrap. Though we may suffer for awhile as we undergo persecutions and trials, they will soon pass away as we approach the light of the glorious abode of our Lord which we will someday share with Him. In the meantime, we persevere and practice patience as we await the return of our Lord Jesus Christ who will fetch us with the loud voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God.
