‭” For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.”(2 Corinthians 8:9 NKJV).

‭” Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,  just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will,  to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. 

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace  which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence,  having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself,  that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him.  In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,  that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.”(Ephesians 1:3-12 NKJV).

‭” But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,  even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),  and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.  For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.”(Ephesians 2: 4-10 NKJV).

‭” Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials,  that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,  receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls. 

Of this salvation the prophets have inquired and searched carefully, who prophesied of the grace that would come to you,  searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ and the glories that would follow.  To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who have preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven—things which angels desire to look into.” (1 Peter 3:1-12 NKJV)

‭”Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”[Jude 1:24-25 NKJV]

ARE YOU A BELIEVER OR NOT ?

‭” He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.  And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;  they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”‭ ( Mark 16:16-18 NKJV).

‭”… that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.  For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.  And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.  For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.” ( John 3: 15-20 NKJV).

‭” You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”( John 4:22-24 NKJV).

“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. ” (John 14: 26 NKJV).

‭” But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand. So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live.” But he shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm. However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god. ” (Acts 28: 3-6 NKJV).

‭” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”[Jude 1:24-25 NKJV].

We study and read everything that’s not pertaining to life and godliness . How can you know God and His promises if you don’t do what He says.

If you believe that man wrote the Bible, then you believe that man is smarter than God. What man can tell you things that occur before his existence and tell you what will occur in the world in your life and after your lifetime ?

‭” Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their own craftiness”;  and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” (1 Corinthians 3:18-20 NKJV).

‭” If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”( James 1:5-8 NKJV).

‭” But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”(John 14:26 NKJV).

‭” These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1 Corinthians 2:13-14 NKJV).

‭” No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you.  Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.  Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.  Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” ( Joshua 1:5-9 NKJV).

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.” (2 Timothy 2:15‭-‬16 KJV).

‭” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,  To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” [ Jude 1:24-25 NKJV]

THINGS GOD HATES THAT WE SHOULD HATE

” These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: [17] A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, [18] A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, [19] A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.” ( Proverbs 6:16-19 NKJV).

‭Romans 12:1-21 NKJV‬
[1] I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. [2] And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. [3] For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith. [4] For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, [5] so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. [6] Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; [7] or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; [8] he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness. [9] Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. [10] Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another; [11] not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; [12] rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer; [13] distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality. [14] Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. [15] Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. [16] Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion. [17] Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. [18] If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men. [19] Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. [20] Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.” [21] Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

‭I Corinthians 6:9-10 NKJV‬
[9] Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, [10] nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

‭Jude 1:24-25 NKJV‬
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

Hebrews 11:1 says :
Now FAITH is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen.
+Substance means that you have the things HOPED for CONFIRMED in GOOD FAITH (by your faith). It’s like having the TITLE DEED to a HOUSE or a CAR without actually seeing the house or car.
+But you know, and you are completely convinced that you have the house and the car without actually seeing them just because you have the TITLE DEED (FAITH).
+This is what “Faith is the substance of things hoped for” actually means. Amen!
+By His GRACE, we will discuss “The evidence of things not seen”

+What is the EVIDENCE of things NOT SEEN?
+EVIDENCE are PROOFS of things not seen and the conviction of their reality.
+EVIDENCE: indisputable FACTS that prove the reality of things.
+Faith perceived as real fact what is not revealed or perceived by our 5 physical senses.
+The Word of God is the EVIDENCE for all the promises of God.
+The Word of God is also the EVIDENCE of things not seen.
+Our FAITH in the EVIDENCE (God’s Word) causes the Promises in God’s Word to be materialized in our lives.
Amen and Praise the Lord!

+Walking in FAITH is similar to walking in the SPIRIT.
+We don’t rely on our Five Physical Senses (Hearing, Seeing, Smelling, Tasting and Feeling) to navigate us when we walk in the Spirit.
+Instead, we follow the instructions of the Word of God given to us by the Leading of The Holy Spirit in Belief, Faith, Trust, and Confidence in Him.
+The Holy Spirit leads us from within our hearts (our spirits).
+From within our hearts, the Holy Spirit gives us Promptings and Impressions.
PROMPTINGS: Heart to heart, or Spirit to spirit. This is how He gets our attention.
IMPRESSIONS: spiritually sensing the inner impressions the Holy Spirit places upon our hearts. In these impressions are messages communicated to by the Holy Spirit in our hearts.

2 Corinthians 5:7 reminds us:
For we walk by faith, not by sight.
+Walking by Faith in God tells God that we are BELIEVING in Him and TRUSTING in Him constantly. Hallelujahs to Jesus!

FINALLY, ‭Jude 1:24-25 NKJV‬
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

God says: In Isaiah 41:10-13
Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ “Behold, all those who were incensed against you Shall be ashamed and disgraced; They shall be as nothing, And those who strive with you shall perish. You shall seek them and not find them— Those who contended with you. Those who war against you Shall be as nothing, As a nonexistent thing. For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, Saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’

As ‭Philippians 4:6-8 NKJV‬ says :
[6] Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; [7] and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. [8] Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

START YOUR DAY WITH PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, On this blessed day  that you have made,we come before You in humble reverence, seeking Your strength to sustain us in the journey of life. We acknowledge that our own strength is limited, but in You, we find unwavering power and unending grace.

Lord, we confess that there are times when we feel weak, weary, and burdened. We face challenges, struggles, and uncertainties that drain our energy and test our resolve. In those moments, we turn to You, the source of all strength. We ask for Your divine empowerment to face each day with courage, perseverance, and unwavering faith.

Father, strengthen us in our physical bodies. Grant us the stamina and vitality we need to fulfill our responsibilities and pursue the purpose You have for our lives. Heal our infirmities, restore our health, and energize us to be diligent stewards of the bodies You have entrusted to us.

Lord, strengthen us emotionally and mentally. Lift the weight of anxiety, fear, and doubt from our hearts. Replace them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Give us clarity of mind and a steadfast spirit, that we may navigate challenges with wisdom and discernment. Help us to cast our cares upon You, knowing that You care for us.

Father, strengthen us spiritually. Deepen our relationship with You and grant us a hunger for Your Word. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, that we may be rooted and grounded in Your truth. Strengthen our faith, that we may trust You completely and surrender our lives to Your divine plan. Help us to walk in obedience to Your commands and to live as a light in this world.

Lord, we pray for strength in our relationships. Grant us the patience, love, and forgiveness needed to cultivate healthy and nurturing connections with others. Strengthen the bonds within our families, friendships, and communities. Help us to build one another up, to bear each other’s burdens, and to be agents of Your love and reconciliation.

In times of weakness, Lord, remind us that Your strength is made perfect in our weakness. May we boast in our weaknesses, knowing that when we are weak, then we are strong in You.

We thank You, Lord, for the strength You provide. May Your strength sustain us, uplift us, and empower us to live out our calling with purpose and joy. IN JESUS’S MIGHTY  NAME, WE PRAY. AMEN 🙏.

‭Jude 1:24-25 NKJV‬
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

‭Revelation 1:4-8 NKJV‬
[4] John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, [5] and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, [6] and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. [7] Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen. [8] “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

Revelation 22:13
I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.
Colossians 1:18-19
18 And He (Christ Jesus)is the Head of the body, the Church: who is the beginning, the Firstborn from the dead; that in ALL things He (Christ Jesus) might have the Preeminence. 19 For it pleased the Father that in Him should ALL fulness dwell.
+In everything concerning us Christ Jesus our Lord comes before all, and He must be kept above all.
+And whatsoever we do we do all for Jesus and for His Glory.
Acts 27:28
In Him (Jesus) we Live, Move and Have our Being…Amen!
Luke 14:26
If anyone comes to Me and does not HATE his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.

+Number one, lets get this straight. Jesus is not promoting hatred towards family and others.
+Jesus is speaking figuratively and literally.
+He is expressing to us what we need to have in our hearts for Him in order to be one of His Disciples.
+It takes Loving Him above all, putting Him before all, and most importantly making sacrifices and if necessary die for Him.
Revelation 2:10 KJVS …be thou faithful unto death…
+Precious Saints its worth it. Let us give Him all that He needs from us, and follow Him wholeheartedly.
+This is Greatly Honorable and Well Pleasing and Highly acceptable unto our Lord.

Mark 10:28-30
28 Then Peter began to say to Him, “See, we have left all and followed You.”
+To be a Disciple of Jesus we must be willing to leave ALL and FOLLOW HIM (Jesus).
29 So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s,
30 who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions and in the age to come, eternal life.
+Let no one or anything distract you or take you away from following Jesus.

+A Rich Young Ruler wanted to know from Jesus what he may do to inherit eternal life.
Mark 10:21-23
21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack: Go your way, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, take up the cross, and follow Me.”
22 But he was sad at the Words Jesus spoke to him, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
23 Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!”
+Those who love money will not become Disciples of Jesus.
+No Disciple can serve money and Jesus at the same time.
+The rich young ruler proved it. He rather serves his money than to follow the Lord Jesus Christ.
Luke 12:34
For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
+Disciples of Jesus make Jesus their Treasure and they Treasure Jesus in every way.
Hallelujahs to Jesus! Amen!

John 21:17
Jesus said to Peter a third time, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you LOVE Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you LOVE Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I LOVE You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.
+Why did Jesus asked Peter three time “Do you LOVE me?”
+Could it because Peter denied that he knew Jesus three times?
John 13:37-38
37 …I will lay down my life for Your sake.”
38 Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for My sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the rooster shall not crow till you have denied Me three times?
+Peter had to be solidified and fortified in his LOVE for Jesus.
+Disciples of Jesus must LOVE Him (Christ Jesus) undeniably at all times and at all cost, and with all our hearts, souls, minds and strength. Amen!
Hallelujahs to Jesus!

Finally:
Matthew 10:33 says;
But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
+Some Disciples do not deny the Lord in words, but they deny Him in their hearts, and in deeds, and also in Love, Truth, Holiness, Righteousness and in Faith
Mark 7:6
He answered and said to them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘This people honors Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me.
+Some Disciples deny Jesus in their lifestyles.
+But as Excellent Disciples of Christ Jesus our Lord we always represent Him in the Spirit of Excellence, in Words, in Deeds, and all in Love, Truth, Holiness, Righteousness and Faith, and all for His Glory. Hallelujah and Amen!
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED we are and BLESSED we will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

‭Jude 1:24-25 NKJV‬
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

‭” For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars.” (2 Chronicles 16:9 NKJV).

‭” A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, but the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness. The eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good. A wholesome tongue is a tree of life, but perverseness in it breaks the spirit.  A fool despises his father’s instruction, but he who receives correction is prudent.”(Proverbs 15:1-5 NKJV).

‭” Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry. The face of the Lord is against those who do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles.  The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart and saves such as having a contrite spirit.  Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.” ( Psalms 34:14-19 NKJV).

‭” For My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My face, nor is their iniquity hidden from My eyes.  And first, I will repay double for their iniquity and their sin because they have defiled My land; they have filled My inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idol”  O Lord, my strength and my fortress, My refuge in the day of affliction, The Gentiles shall come to You From the ends of the earth and say, “Surely our fathers have inherited lies, Worthlessness and unprofitable things.” Will a man make gods for himself, Which are not gods?  “Therefore behold, I will this once cause them to know, I will cause them to know My hand and My might; And they shall know that My name is the Lord.”( Jeremiah 16:17-21 NKJV).

‭” Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, That it cannot save; Nor His ear heavy, That it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear.” (Isaiah 59:1-2 NKJV).

‭” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” [Jude 1: 24-25 NKJV]

‭John 10:7-10 NKJV‬
[7] Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. [8] All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. [9] I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. [10] The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

‭I Peter 5:5-11 NKJV‬
[5] Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” [6] Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, [7] casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. [8] Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. [9] Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. [10] But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. [11] To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

‭Jude 1:24-25 NKJV‬
[24] Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, [25] To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.

TO BE FREE FROM MYTHS,LIES,AND TRADITIONS, YOU MUST KNOW THE TRUTH.

Let’s  begin with ‭John 1:14, 17 NKJV‬ which says: [14] And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
[17] For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

‭”And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”(John 8:32 NKJV).

‭John 14:6 NKJV‬
[6] Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

‭” For we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.” (‭II Corinthians 13:8 NKJV‬).

FIVE PRINCIPLES OF TRUTH

1. TRUTH IS SPIRITUAL – “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him  GOD IS SPIRIT, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” ( John 4:23-24 NKJV).

2. TRUTH IS SUPERNATURAL – ” These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.  But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. ” ( 1 Corinthians 2: 13-14 NKJV).

3. TRUTH IS ETERNAL – ” Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You had formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God.”(Psalms 90:2 NKJV).

‭“From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.” (Isaiah 43:13 NLT).

4. TRUTH IS UNCHANGEABLE – NEVER CHANGE.” Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”(Hebrews 13:8 NKJV).

5. TRUTH IS GOD’S REALITY- REAL AND RELIABLE.  –   ” Remember the former things of old, For I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me” ( Isaiah 46:9 NKJV).

” For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.” ( Hebrews 4:12-13 NKJV).

‭I John 5:20 NKJV‬
[20] And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

‭” For what if some did not believe? Will their unbelief make the faithfulness of God without effect? Certainly not! Indeed, let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: “That You may be justified in Your words, And may overcome when You are judged.” ( Romans 3:3-4 NKJV).

‭” For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth that is in you, just as you walk in the truth.  I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.” ( 3 John 1: 3-4 NKJV).

‭” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.” ( Jude 1: 24-25 NKJV).
