Jesus, Captain of Life’s Sea

Jesus, Captain of Life’s

Sea, 


I have a friend in Jesus,  Who guides me through the gale, 

A first mate and a skipper,  Who helps me to set sail.  He offers strength and,  guidance, A helmsman at the wheel, An ever-steady beam of light,  A fortress made of steel.  He’s the master of the ocean,  My refuge and my rock ,  A harbor that I turn to,  My anchor at life’s dock. 

He’s a mighty sailing warrior,  A helping hand indeed   A pilot through the churning waves,  He meets my every need.  He’s the One I always run to,  When the waves won’t let me be, 

 The lighthouse that I turn to,  On a rough and troubled sea.  He’s a smoothly sailing vessel,  A refuge from the storm,  The gentle breeze that sends me to,  An island, sweet and warm.  He’s a brave and fearless skipper,  A shelter from the heat,  Water when I’m thirsty,  A vessel filled with wheat.  He’s a sure and steady sailor,  My Captain on life’s sea,  No matter where I journey,  He goes along with me.

Big Mistake to Come Against The Children of God

-
Image
David and Goliath  Never pick a flight with the Children of God,  this is what the Lord Almighty says: After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of His eye —   I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Zechariah 2:8-9    David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.( 1 Samuel 17:45) Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.      He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.      No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s see...

The Bride-Wife-The Church of Jesus The Christ

-
Image
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.  In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.  After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—  for we are members of his body.   “ For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. ” This is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church.  However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. (Ephesians 5:25-33NIV) God is Love and Jesus is Lord in the Heaven and on Earth forever.

Put Your Weapons Away

Lent Season:  The Church of Jesus Christ must be aware of the danger of using weapons to destroy their opponent.  When Jesus was arrested, He told his disciple Peter in the Gospel of John 18:11 and of Matthew 26:36-68 put your weapon away! NRSV Jesus Prays in Gethsemane 36  Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane; and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” 37  He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and agitated. 38  Then he said to them, “I am deeply grieved, even to death; remain here, and stay awake with me.” 39  And going a little farther, he threw himself on the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me; yet not what I want but what you want.” 40  Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter, “So, could you not stay awake with me one hour? 41  Stay awake and pray that you may not come i...

How Much Do You Love Money? You Love Money?

-

How much do you love money, it says a lot about who you really are! And   how you use your money, also says a lot about who you really are. Also how you treat other people with your Money, also says a lot about the person you really are. Let’s see what the Holy Word of God says.                                    False Teaching and True Riches Teach and urge these duties.  Whoever teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that is in accordance with godliness,  is conceited, understanding nothing, and has a morbid craving for controversy and for disputes about words. From these come envy, dissension, slander, base suspicions,  and wrangling among those who are depraved in mind and bereft of the truth, imagining t...

Never Never Never Pick A Fight With God

Here is why according to the Word of God   This is after the death of Jesus. " We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him.”   When they heard this, they were furious and wanted to put them to death.   But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a little while.       Then he addressed the Sanhedrin: “Men of Israel, consider carefully what you intend to do to these men.   Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing.     After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered.   Therefore, in the present case I advise you: L...

Rejoice With God Almighty 3rd Advent

Zephaniah 3:14-20    Sing aloud, O daughter Zion; shout, O Israel! Rejoice and exult with all your heart, O daughter Jerusalem! The LORD has taken away the judgments against you, he has turned away your enemies. The king of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst; you shall fear disaster no more. On that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: Do not fear, O Zion; do not let your hands grow weak. The LORD, your God, is in your midst, a warrior who gives victory; he will rejoice over you with gladness, he will renew you in his love; he will exult over you with loud singing as on a day of festival. I will remove disaster from you, so that you will not bear reproach for it. I will deal with all your oppressors at that time. And I will save the lame and gather the outcast, and I will change their shame into praise and renown in all the earth. At that time I will bring you home, at the time when I gather you; for I will make you renowned and praised among all the peoples ...

Reclaiming the Land

The Return of the Redeemed Children of God The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus  it shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice with joy and singing.  The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.  They shall see the glory of the Lord , the majesty of our God.   Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees.  Say to those who are of a fearful heart, Be strong, do not fear!  Here is your God. He will come with vengeance, with terrible recompense. He will come and save you.” Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped; then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the speechless sing for joy. For waters shall break forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert; the burning sand shall become a pool, and the thirsty ground springs of water; the haunt of jackals shall become a swamp,...

The Love of God in Jesus Christ

God’s Love Shown Through Jesus Christ John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. Romans 5:8 but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God. who loved me and gave himself for me. Ephesians 2:4-5 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, evenwhen we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ— by grace you have been saved— 1 John 4:9-11 In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so lov...
