Hello to everyone:
I would like to first look at two Bible verses, the first is from Malachi 3:6a which reads "For I the LORD do not change" The second Bible verse is from Psalms 102:25-27, which reads "25 Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands.26 They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment.
You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, 27 but you are the same, and your years have no end."
The Free Dictionary calls Immutable - unchanging through time; unalterable; ageless. I don't know how many times in a 24hr period a human being can change his mind about anything. I know personaly I have trouble sometimes staying focused on one item, so I would not change my mind. But when it comes to God he never changes his mind, what ever he says, goes, he stayes with what is right and that's why he will never change he can't. It goes against who he is, He is a God that knows what to do when it needs to be done.
Until later have a good day.

GOD IS HOLY
Hello to all of you:
Today I would like to look at God's Holiness. The Bible Verse for today is 1 Samuel 2:2 which reads: 2 "There is none holy like the LORD;there is none besides you; there is no rock like our God." Samuel mentions that God is the only one that is Holy and he is right about that, God is the only one that is Holy.
In Nelson's 3 in 1 Bible Reference we find the definition of Holy as, uniquely divine; separated from sin; morally perfect; consecrated to God. I've talked on the goodness of God and now I'm writing on the Holiness of God, well in my book they both come hand in hand, God is that type of God. God is always good and holy 24 hrs a day 7 days a week, if he wasn't this way we Christians could not live in a world that is run by Satan, without God's help. Without God's Holiness, our Unholiness would be unchecked for a very long time. Thanks be to God for his Holiness.
Until later have a good day.

GOODNESS OF GOD
Good Day To All Of You:
I would like to start off by looking at Psalms 145:9 which reads 9 The LORD is good to all,
and his mercy is over all that he has made. At Dictionary.com the definition for Goodness is "Moral Excellence." God is the only one that can be Moral Excellence because of who he is. God is a Spirit that can not stand sin, we all know that sin in a person's life is all what is bad, never good in that person. Let's look at Romans 3:9b-12, which reads For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, 10 as it is written:
"None is righteous, no, not one;
11 no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
12 All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
no one does good,
not even one."
As you see from Paul's writing that no one is good, and that is what Sin is, and that's why God can't like sin in his life, but we have a savior in Jesus Christ the only one that could save us. God is so Good that he gave Jesus over to die on the cross so we can again be good in God's eyes, with out Jesus we would be nothing.
Until later have a very Good day.

FOREKNOWLEDGE OF GOD
Good Morning Everyone:
I'm always amazed at what God our Father knows, to tell you the truth he does always knows more than I will ever know. So for today's post I want to look at the Knowledge of God.
In Nelson's 3in1 Bible Reference there are two words that I want to look at the first is Foreknown: To know ahead of time. The second word is Foreknowledge of God: God's knowledge projected into the future.
We all know that God knows what's going to happen before it happen's, and for some reason he lets it happen. He lets it happen for different reasons, sometimes its to teach us a lesson that he's always there when we need his help.
I want to look at Genesis 3: 7-13, which is 7 Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.
8 And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the LORD God called to the man and said to him, "Where are you?" 10 And he said, "I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself." 11 He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?" 12 The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate." 13 Then the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this that you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."
I want to look at this Bible verse for a minute. In it God calls out to find out where Adam and Eve where to be found. Whey do you think he did this, he did this not because he didn't know where they where he always knew where they where and what they did. No God wanted Adam and Eve to admit that they did wrong, but we all know that God knew this ahead of time. This is how God works with us, he knows us inside and out but he still Loves us.
Until latter May God Bless this day.

FAITHFULNESS GOD
Good Morning:
I would like to look at Psalm 89:33 which reads "but I will not remove from him my steadfast love or be false to my faithfulness." YourDictionary.com gives the definition for faithfulness as "Faithfulness or devotion to a person, a cause, obligations, or duties:" One of God's characteristic is that he will never change, or go back on his word. When God promises something that something will happen sooner or latter. We all know that God cannot be around sin because he will not change so he could be around sin and be around more people. This is not God and he will never be this way.
I would like to know look at the characteristic of Abraham, we know that he had a choose, to either do the will of God or be in big trouble. Let's look at Genesis 22:1-14, which reads "22:1 After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here am I.” 2 He said, “Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” 3 So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac. And he cut the wood for the burnt offering and arose and went to the place of which God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place from afar. 5 Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey; I and the boy will go over there and worship and come again to you.” 6 And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. And he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac said to his father Abraham, “My father!” And he said, “Here am I, my son.” He said, “Behold, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” 8 Abraham said, “God will provide for himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they went both of them together.
9 When they came to the place of which God had told him, Abraham built the altar there and laid the wood in order and bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood. 10 Then Abraham reached out his hand and took the knife to slaughter his son. 11 But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here am I.” 12 He said, “Do not lay your hand on the boy or do anything to him, for now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me.” 13 And Abraham lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, behind him was a ram, caught in a thicket by his horns. And Abraham went and took the ram and offered it up as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham called the name of that place, “The Lord will provide”; as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.”
God's wants us to be like Abraham and take the right path to obedience to God, then God will always be faithful to us, and keep his promises.
Until latter have a good day.

ETERNAL GOD
Good Morning to Everyone:
I would like to look at two words today, the first is ETERNAL and the second is BEGINNING. At Dictionary.com the definition for eternal is "without beginning or end; lasting forever; always existing ( opposed to temporal): eternal life. " Now I want to look at today's Bible verse, Psalms 90:1,2 " 1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place
in all generations. 2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God." This Bible verse reminds me that God has always been around and that he will always be around, that's why he is called ETERNAL.
The second word that I want to look at today is BEGINNING. The definition from Dictionary.com is "the point of time or space at which anything begins: the beginning of the Christian era; the beginning of the route" Today's Bible verse is Genesis 1:1 which reads: "1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." If the word BEGINNING is a reference point of time when God created the heavens and the earth, then God has to be ETERNAL, so he could create the heavens and the earth.
God Bless everyone this morning.

EVIL WAYS
Good Morning to Everyone:
I would like to start this post by looking at topics from the last 7 posts that I wrote. We started off by finding out why Jesus is called "King of kings & Lord of lords." I pointed out that God the Father gave his son that because Jesus died on the cross for our sins and he is living today at the right hand of his father in heaven.
My next post I mentioned that Jesus is a different type of King, not the type that you would think of. Jesus's rule would be one of a servant and not as a dictatory. Jesus's rules would be there to protect us and not hurt us.
The next post was part 2 of the "King of king & Lord of lord" post, which I talked about Jesus does want us to follow 2 rules or commands. They are "You shall Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all you mind." The second rule is "You shall love you neighbor as yourself."
I then talked about in the next post about being a very tall Light House. A Light House that a person can see you coming at a faraway distance. I mentioned that you should help out other people that needs help, physically or mentally we can always help out someone that needs help, and we should be there to help. I believe that when you help someone you feel good about yourself so that light in the Light House will never go out.
Jesus wanted us to be a Light House, from that post we then here from God the Father, he wants us to become holy, like his son is. I mentioned that becoming holy is to separate ourself from everyday life, and its problems.
My next post Jesus gave us a prayer to follow called the Lord's Prayer, I believe Jesus was helping us to become holy, like himself. The first thing we must do is always stay in touch with our Heavenly Father, and by keeping in touch with God he will see us through a bad day.
My last post I mentioned that we must read and study God's Bible. We read the bible and we study different topics in the bible, so we can grow, the more we study and grow the holier we get.
The very first album recorded by Santana had a song in it called "Evil Ways", the first 2 lines goes like this: "You've got to change your evil ways, baby, before I stop lovin' you. You've got to change baby, and every word that I say is true." Every time I here this song it sounds like Jesus himself is telling me that I should change my Evil Ways or I would be perminetly lost. We all have a choose, to either change and work at being holy, with God's help or we can keep on our merry way, fare from God and everything that he has for us.
I do pray that we can all change and become holy like God wants us to.
Until latter have a good day.
