Reflections on the Word of God

GOD’S EMBASSY

An embassy represents the country that sent it. An embassy can be located in a part of a town that is not very affluent.
However, inside its walls, the embassy can be filled with many luxuries found in the country it represents.
Our house is an embassy of heaven. No sickness or disease should be present in our homes because they are not present in heaven. Our house should represent the Kingdom of God.
If any other nation enters an embassy without permission or by hostile means, it is an act of war. The grounds are sovereign territory. We MUST “INACT” THE WORD OF GOD to protect our homes and our loved ones against any “intruders.”


KEEP THE FIRE BURNING

                                                   Quench not the Spirit. 1 Thessalonians 5:19 (KJV)                                                     The word “quench” is used in reference to a fire. Yet in this verse, it is used to refer to the Spirit. Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them […]




BE RENEWED IN THE SPIRIT OF YOUR MIND

Romans 12:2 tells us “be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” We understand we renew our mind by reading and meditating on the Word of God which is the Truth. Everything else is a lie of the enemy. As we continue to read the Word, accept it and believe it, we are feeding our mind with the Truth. In order to renew our mind we need to believe the Word we read. In addition, we need to reject the lies of the enemy, and we cannot “entertain” them by meditating on them. Yet Ephesians tells us to be renewed […]




FORGIVENESS I

Forgiveness is a multifaceted topic. The Lord forgives us. We need to forgive others. We need to forgive ourselves The Lord Forgives Us God forgives us because of the price Jesus Christ paid for our sins when He died on the Cross. In order to receive that forgiveness, we need to repent of our sins and accept Jesus Christ to be Lord over our life. That is when we also become “born again” or when we become a new creation. We Need to Forgive Others One thing that I think all of us face during life is forgiving those that […]





WEEDS EVERYWHERE


WEEDS EVERYWHERE

Have you ever been frustrated with the weeds that affect the growth of your plants? We see these unwanted weeds everywhere, on empty or deserted lots and around our gardens. They just show up without any effort on our part. Yet growing good fruit, vegetables, and beautiful plants takes plenty of labor. They require cultivating, nourishment, pruning and lots of care. A child displays bad behavior without any effort on our part. Yet to develop into a disciple of God, a child needs good nourishment, correction, physical activity, guidance, and lots of care. Thus, our labor to grow into a […]





THE WORD OF GOD AND THE RAIN


THE WORD OF GOD AND THE RAIN

What is the correlation between the Word of God and the rain coming down? Isaiah 55:10-12 “For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, And do not return there, But water the earth, And make it bring forth and bud, That it may give seed to the sower And bread to the eater, 11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. 12 “For you shall go out […]
