OUR PORTION

Psalm 16:5-6  ” Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance.”

To each person has been given his/her portion; our cup is filled to overflowing with God’s gifts to us. They include our talents, which God expects us to use for His glory, with the help of the Holy Spirit, whom He gave to us for help and guidance.

1 Corinthians 7:7  “I wish that all men were as I (Paul) am. But each man has his own gifts from God; one has one gift, another has his.”

Let us be diligent about using our gifts for God’s glory, daily.  Ask for divine appointments and for the Holy Spirit to direct our steps, daily.

                               THE POWER OF LIVING WATER

Revelation 7:17-18  ” For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their Shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

The Scene: Inside the mill, work is being accomplished as the grinding wheel turns. The power to drive the wheel comes from the stream of water outside the mill. God gives us power through His Word, which He has called living water.

Jesus says in His word, “Ask in My name,as you pray.”

Psalm 65:9 ” You care for the land and water it; you enrich it abundantly. The streams of God are filled with water to provide the people with grain, for so you have ordained it”

The food for our spirit comes to us from God’s Holy Word and feeds us as we grow into maturity, if we will allow it to change us.

Psalm 29:3 ” The voice of the Lord is over the water; the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.”

                                              YE ARE SALT

Colossians 4:6 ” Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.”

The Scene: Salt-Himalayan salt (of a color other than white)

Salt is a preservative. If God’s people were withdrawn from the world, order would not be preserved. Preservative represents the good influence of His people.

Salt is necessary for our bodies to function properly; the brain will not work without salt. The human brain cells need electrolytes.  Nerve cells are the electrical system of the brain and won’t work without salt. Salt ions are positively charged and cause nerve cells to open (send signals) to the body and throughout the brain.

Salt is a natural element created by God.

Salt controls blood pressure and blood volume. It is an anti-inflammatory when inhaled and regulates water content inside the cells of the body, where it cleanses toxic waste and  manages cell metabolism.

Just like the human race,  salt comes in many shades and is  found all over the world. God’s Word says His people are as salt, but comes with a warning:

Matthew 5:13 ” 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.”

So God’s people are told to not let worldliness creep into their lives lest they become corrupted. So it is important that true believers of the Word  pay attention to all we take in via the media, thoughts from either God’s Spirit or the enemy of our souls, and the people with which we interact.

Just as natural salt, we, God’s people, can contribute to the good health of the world through our actions and words. We are as salt.

                                TRUST IN ME, FEAR NOT

Romans 15:4 ” For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.”

The Scene:1)Person in the tunnel: represents the born again, true believers in this dark world.

2) Dark tunnel: represents sin in the world.

3) Light: at the end of the tunnel: God’s Light.

To much of this world these are the darkest days ever. But the Lord tells us, “Fear not!” Be filled with His hope. He is coming back for His people, as He said He would, and that day is not far off.

We are to stand and be courageous, be steadfast in our faith, trusting in His Word, which is always true. He is faithful.

1 Peter 5:10-11 “And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.To him be the power for ever and ever . Amen.”

Think of all the positive, helpful answers, we have received, from to our prayers. Count them, list them, remember them. Give thanks. Think of the letter “T” as in trust and true, for He is. The letter “T” looks like Greek letter Tau and the Greek cross…For our God is true to his Word and we must trust Him, always!

PRAYER WARRIORS (GOD’S PEOPLE), GOD’S AMMO

2 Thessalonians 3:1-2  ” Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.  And pray that we might be delivered from  wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith.”

God uses His people in the army of the Lord.

The  Scene

1) Cartridges: representing God’s people (the elect), standing erect in the  open box, ready for use, by God.

2) Bullets: The bullets have been refined by fire into hardened steel.

3) Box: represents God’s protection which also keeps the bullets together (not scattered about), being as one body, (the Church).

4) Five Bullets: representing the 5 fold ministry. Ephesians 4:11 ” It was he (Jesus) who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers.”

Psalm 4:3 ” Know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself.The Lord will hear when I call to him.”

                                     GOD OF LIGHT

Exodus 27:20  ” Command the Israelites to bring you clear oil of pressed olives for the light so that the lamps may be kept burning.”

John 5:35 “John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose to follow him for a time to enjoy his light.”

The Scene: 1) God’s people, representing lampstands, filled with olive oil, 2) Olive oil-God’s Word, 3) White robe- represents purity, 4) blue represents royalty; sash of 3 strands = Holy Trinity.  We are sent by King Jesus to be a light to the world. 5) Bowls: gold and bronze to hold the oil from which the fire gains its fuel.

WORDS FROM THE LORD: ” I AM your God, I AM your God of light, who goes before you. The darkness cannot stand the light.”

To true believers of the Word who listen to the Word and do what it says, the Word is the oil to provide the light.

Psalm 119:105 “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.”
