Date: Thu, 11 Oct 2007 11:55:15 -0400
Hello
Folks,
This
email is being sent to you for encouragement
TO
STAND in SPITE of the (now in our face) adversities
that
are confronting us day after day to bring us down.
The
encouragement that I am presenting is simple yet
profound.
As you look unto The Lord Jesus Christ
as
your only hope BY FAITH AND ARE LOOKING
for
his RETURN, STAND FAST in the power of HIS
MIGHT
and lean not on your own understanding
but
upon his PROMISES THAT HE SAYS THAT
HE
WILL KEEP. Look at the verses below to
receive
the comfort in them FROM GOD WHO
CANNOT
LIE, WHO SENT HIS ONLY SON TO
DIE
AND BE BURIED AND RISE FROM THE
DEAD AGAIN
FOR YOUR SINS, THAT YOU
KNOW
THROUGH THE OPERATION OF HIS
WORK
OF FAITH IN YOU:
Romans
Chapter
5:
1
Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through
our Lord Jesus Christ:
1
Corinthians
Chapter
15:
1
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached
unto you, which also
ye
have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I
preached unto you, unless ye
have
believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also
received, how that
Christ died for our
sins
according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third
day
according
to the scriptures:
Romans
Chapter
5:
1
Therefore
being justified by faith, we have peace with God
through
our Lord Jesus Christ:
Galatians
Chapter
3:
24
Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that
we might
be
justified by faith.
Hebrews
Chapter
13:
5
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with
such things as ye
have:
for he hath said, I
will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
2
Corinthians
Chapter
7:
1
Having therefore these promises, dearly
beloved, let us cleanse
ourselves
from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness
in the fear of God.
John
Chapter 3:
15
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
in
him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Galatians
Chapter
2:
20
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but
Christ liveth in me: and the life
which
I now live in the flesh
I live by the faith of the Son of God,
who
loved me, and gave himself for me.
Ephesians
Chapter
6:
10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of
his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to
stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers,
against
the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual
wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you
the whole armour of God, that ye may
be
able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about
with truth, and having on the breastplate of
righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of
peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall
be able to quench all the fiery
darts
of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the
Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the
Spirit, and watching thereunto
with
all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
PLEASE
NOTE:
THE
ARMOUR SPOKEN ABOVE IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
HIMSELF,
HE IS YOUR PROTECTION, AGAINST YOUR OWN
REMAINING
SIN AND THE TEMPTATION OF THE DEVIL AND
THE
ALURE OF THE WORLD THAT IS EVER AT US TO BRING
US
INTO IT'S CAPTIVITY. GOD'S GRACE IS GREATER THAN
ALL
THESE THINGS. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING VERSES
FOR
ENCOURAGEMENT TO TRUST HIM DAY BY DAY FOR HIS
PROMISED
DELIVERANCE:
2
Thessalonians
Chapter
2:
16
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which
hath loved us, and
hath
given us everlasting
consolation and good
hope
through grace,
1 John Chapter 4:
4 Ye are of God, little children, and
have overcome them:
because greater
is he that is
in you, than he that is in the world.
1 John Chapter 5:
9 If we receive the
witness of men, the
witness of God is greater:
for this is
the witness of God which he hath
testified of
his Son.
My Hope is that THE
LORD JESUS CHRIST has blessed and comforted you who believe,
and has revealed
himself TO YOU and IN YOU that are coming to know him,
with the
verses above from
His Word.
