Proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Message 6:11
Be humble in your work. Be longsuffering with others; and if you will do this God will give you his Spirit from time to time to enlighten your mind, that the work you do might be accepted of him. Amen.”
Staying humble is one of the hardest things to do, but it is one of the most important. We cannot allow ourselves to think we are more than we are. Only through God can we obtain our true potential but in life and on our spiritual walk. Stay grounded and you will continue to grow.
Galations 5:22-26
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
Let the Christ show through you. This is done by the fruits of the sprit. We can’t just talk about having these fruits, but have to actually have them in our actions.
Message 73:6
The Lord knoweth the hearts of mankind and wherein they desire to learn and do his will, it shall be like precious ointment poured out upon the faithful to dwell in this light of life and salvation. For unto them, shall be great joy, that which the mind of man has not yet attained to.
If we are looking for the Lord we will find him. When we find him we will receive his blessings. The peace and joy that comes from the Lord is comforting.
Message 98:5
I come as the Messenger of the Lord. The Lord has been and will be with his people by his Spirit, and his peace shall long linger with the faithful until they become the jewels of God, called, chosen and faithful.
God will never leave us. If we stay faithful to the Lord he will make sure that we are with him in the end. This is a great promise that we rely on.
Galatians 4:4-7
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
Christ was sent by God to give us an away to be closer to God. God also sent his spirit so that we can have him in our hearts all the time. Let us be thankful for the gifts that God has sent us.
Message 88:15
Mankind shall live by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God, the very eternal Christ the Lord and Maker of all. He cometh down with power in his word.
We cannot change what God will judge us against. I encourage you to look at God’s words and see if you are following them. We cannot make up our own and expect him to use them. Read, study and pray. His words and meaning will come to you though the spirit.
James 1:19-20
Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
Let us not be quick to judge or act when we are persecuted. We should take our time and let God help us in dealing with a situation. Wither that is with another person or our daily lives. There have many different people who have made a situation worse by acting or speaking out of turn and without thinking. Let us now be one of those people.
Message 60:6
But fear not men, nor what they may say of this work, for in their hearts is selfishness and hate. They are carnally minded and cannot see the Lord’s hand move, but seek their own glory and not the glory of the Lord.
Let us not worry about others when we live our lives and work for God. Let us ware God on outside and let everyone know it. God will not forsake us. Others may say bad things about and to us because of our beliefs, but we cannot allow that to influence us in our work for the Lord. Stay strong in the Lord and reach out to him and other believers for your strength.
Luke 12:11-12
And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
God always gives us what we need. This includes words. When we go out to talk to people we should allow God to give us the words that he wants us to use, not make up our own. This is very comforting in the fact that we don’t have to have everything committed to memory, we just need to have an understanding of his word and the faith that he will give us what we need when we need it.
Message 85:4-5
Let mankind come all the way. Those that will hear the small whisper, hear the loud voice, hear the call of God may thrust in their sickle and reap, for the harvest is white—nigh unto gathering. I have spoken prudently, and surely. This is the assured way. Let all that come be baptized and the hands laid on them that the Lord by his Spirit may confirm their works.
Sometimes when the Lord calls us, it is not very loud. Most people expect there to be a large event that God will use to call us home, but sometimes it small everyday events. When you do hear the whisper listen closely, and it will become louder and clearer. When you hear the Lord, make sure you come to him, but do it correctly by the way of baptism and the laying of the hands.
Message 95:6
I will put my Spirit upon him and it shall be upon all those that hear and obey this way. As you swing wide the gate, let my people come. He that is filled of this message and calling, let him thrust in the sickle and reap, saith the Lord.’
Let hear and obey the words of the Lord. Let his spirit come over us and lead the way. Let us go spreading the word of the Lord. We don’t have to all go preaching and talking to everyone that we meat, we just need to let the love of God shine though us. If we do this opportunities will arise to allow to talk to people. There are thousands upon thousands that are looking for God and the salvation that Christ brings. Let’s show them the way.
