REWARDS AND CONSEQUENCES

Judges 6:39-41 “Then Gideon said to God, ‘Do not be angry with me. Let me make just one more request. Allow me one more test with the fleece. This time make the fleece dry and the ground covered with dew.’ That night God did so. Only the fleece was dry; all the ground was covered with dew.” Gideon was testing to be sure he had heard from God regarding being chosen to lead Israel.

The Scene: Two direction signs–two choices connected in the middle with a stand.

God has given all mankind free will, with which we make decisions and choices. God’s people are free to test His Word anytime, wanting to verify that we have heard a true word* from the Holy Spirit, which is good and not the voice of the evil one, the enemy; God will never punish His children for asking reassurance of His word.

Luke 5:4-6 “When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, ‘Put out into the deep water and let down the nets for a catch.’ Simon answered, ‘Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets for a catch.’ When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break.”

John 14:21 “Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.”

God gives His Word as a loving Father. Either we listen to Him or we suffer consequences. Godly obedience leads to Godly rewards; disobedience to God leads to Godly punishment or loss of rewards from Him.

*We know God’s word is true when it lines up with the Holy Scripture.

DIVINE HELP

DIVINE HELP

Psalm 121:1-2 “I lift up my eyes to the hills–where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”

The Scene: See the yellow bulldozer working on clearing, leveling the narrow gravel roadway from debris. The driver, Jesus, clears the roadway while the road grader, following behind the bulldozer, smooths the surface.

The Holy Spirit clarifies that Father God, the architect of the narrow road (Godly rules, commandments, covenants) Jesus and the Holy Spirit (our Helper) goes before us on the narrow road, clearing the way for us.

If we ask the Lord Jesus Christ for His help, He will see that we get through any situation and we can stay peaceful to watch God work on our behalf.

Isaiah 30:21 “Whether you turn to your right or to your left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’ “

Isaiah 42:16 “I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.”

We need not fear anything, though having concerns, so long as we listen to the Lord God following His voice.

Hebrews 13:6 “So we say with confidence, ‘The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?’ “

GOD IS NOT SANTA CLAUS

GOD IS NOT SANTA CLAUS

GOD IS NOT SANTA CLAUS

1 John 2:15 ” Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.”

The world’s view of Christmas is Santa Claus, which can lead to an illusion. The Christian’s view of Christmas is, “Give us Jesus”.  Although St. Nicholas is seen as a good man, he wasn’t God.  Jesus Christ the Lord is God in the flesh, sent to earth to show us the Father and His unconditional love.

1John 2:16-17 ” The craving 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.”

Ask Jesus daily, for yourself and your family, to guide your steps, to help you heed God’s wisdom and God’s discernment.”

LEADER OF NATIONS

LEADERS OF NATIONS.jpg

                                                     LEADER OF NATIONS

Romans 13:1″ Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.”

The Scene: Flags of many nations.

Christians are told in God’s Word to follow godly leaders–pray for godly leaders. that they will be led of God, in righteousness, who will lead the nations in righteousness.

God is the creator of nations, good and bad.

Daniel 4:17 ” The decision is announced by messengers, the holy ones declare the verdict, so that the living may know that the  Most High is sovereign over the kingdoms of men and gives them to anyone he wishes and sets over them the lowliest of men.”

God first chose the leaders, like Moses, Joshua, Abraham; the kings of the 12 tribes of Israel, good and bad leaders, like Saul, David, Solomon; later world leaders, like Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan, of the USA; Germany’s Hitler, Stalin of the USSR.

In Good and bad nations God has His children.

Proverbs 29:2 “When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule the people groan.”

God promises He will take care of His own. We are called to follow after righteousness no matter what evil people are planning or doing. We are to trust in Almighty God.

James 1:2 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds.”

We are called  to wait and see what great things He, the Almighty, will do.

STIR UP THOSE BONES

 

STUR UP THOSE BONES.jpg                                                           STIR UP THOSE BONES

Proverbs 15:30 ” A cheerful look brings joy to the heart and good news gives health to the bones.”

The Scene: The Holy Spirit said,”Stir up those bones, be joyful to others.”

Proverbs 16:24 “Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing the the bones.”

“Our witness is greater, more powerful, when we are joyful and pleasant to be around,” said the Lord. “Tap into My joy, My peace, My energy.”

Nehemiah 8:10 “Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

Psalm 81:1 “Sing for joy to God our strength;  shout aloud to the God of Jacob.”

RISE ABOVE IT ALL

RISE ABOVE IT ALL.jpg

                                                      RISE ABOVE IT ALL

Ephesians 5:19 Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Lord covets the praises of His people.

Hebrews 13:15 Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise– the fruit of our lips that confess his name.

The Scene: An aircraft carrier at sea, launching an aircraft; represents daily activities of God’s people. The airplane represents the true believers in Jesus Christ. The plane has been launched into the air; however, it is having problems gaining altitude (stalling) but is slowly recovering its air worthiness.

When Christians find themselves struggling with circumstances, illness, financial problems and at a standstill (like the stall of an aircraft) darkness of day– and don’t know what to do. Praise is the answer. God is there, waiting for us to praise Him so He can help us get back on top, pull out of our stalls and fly high and straight.

The Lord says,”Thank me for everything, though this seems unnatural–even irrational. Gradually you will begin to ascend, recovering your lost ground.–choose to praise Me. Rise above it all–when descending (loosing altitude) praise Me! You will gain altitude (attitude).”

With God’s help our loss of hope, depression, anxiety have us wavering. Call on God with your praises and you will begin to soar!

Isaiah 40:31 “but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not get weary, they will walk and not faint.”

PAID IN FULL

PAID IN FULL

                                     PAID IN FULL

1Corinthians 6:20 You were bought for a price–purchased with a preciousness and paid for, made His own. So then honor God and give glory to him in your body. (Amp)

The Scene: Paid for in full stamp- red background is symbolic of Jesus’ blood shed for sinners. Jesus paid a debt He did not owe. Jesus paid the full price of sin, for all who believe in Him and accept Him as Lord and Savior of their lives.

Deuteronomy Chapter 15 reminds Christians to be generous in helping others, by giving tithes and offerings. In return, we are promised blessings in everything to which we put our hands. God is ultimately fair and just. He expects His people to be the same way.

Malachi 3:10 ” Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house.  Test me in this”, says the Lord Almighty,   “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out blessing that you will not have room enough for it”.

HARDENING OF THE HEART

HARDENING OF THE HEART

                                      HARDENING OF THE HEART

2 Corinthians 4:4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

The Scene: A sinner’s heart that has been hardened. Like a block of concrete, the heart of the unrepentant sinner will be hardened.

Satan, the god of this age, will do all that is within his power to hardened the hearts of the people against God leading to  stubbornness.

Stubbornness leads to spiritual blindness, which leads to hardening of the heart.

Proverbs 28:14 Blessed is the man who always fears the Lord, but he who hardens his heart falls into trouble.

God wants what is best for us. In order to get God’s best we must submit to His will for our lives, not our fleshly will.

Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

I AM THE GOD OF ORDER

I AM THE GOD OF ORDER.jpg

Job 25:2 Dominion and awe belong to God; he establishes order in the heights of heaven.

The Scene: represents chaos in the world. The color black background represents sin , change, relativism.

The Lord takes chaos and turns it into order, at His pleasure. Anarchy and chaos follows when people leave God out of their lives.

Psalm 24:1-2 The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it; for he founded it upon it upon the seas and established it upon the waters.

When we find ourselves in chaos, as true believers of Jesus Christ, we can give the situation to God and He will bring order into every situation.

Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

The world is a better place when people listen to Me (My Word) and do what I say, says God the Holy Spirit. Until humankind listens to the Holy Spirit, the world will be out of order and in chaos.

MANY BLESSINGS

MANY BLESSINGSJohn 1:16 From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another.

The Scene: The constellation represents the showers of blessings received during troubled times because as many blessings exist as the number of stars in the heavens.

Ephesians 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.

Psalm 3:8 From the Lord comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.

Blessings will continue to flow out from the Lord to His people who  trust in Him, those who are faithful.

Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

The blessings of our Lord brings us wealth. Hallelujah!
