Christmas!

 Our light to be seen and not Hidden?

T'is the season of merryment and cheer in the celebration of the birth of Jesus our Savior and that is all that it may mean to us, a time of religious appearance and the rest food, drink and sexual intimations in the traditions of the world?

We have something if we are truly born again or converted, we have the light of God that must not be hidden from the world, the Holy Spirit will empower us to share that real meaning of this time and many to our surprise seriously want to hear what we have to say and the need for Salvation?

So when asked have the answer to meet the need, the gift to listen to people problems, worries, even their anger of injustice!

Matthew/Levi 5:13-16, John 8:12, 1 John 2:8.

Gaza and Palestine!

 Wrong road for black civil rights?

For many believers it is known that when we go against Israel, we will lose the blessings, our fellowships become stagnated and our walk with God empty, since we have dared to touch the apple of Gods eye, woe to us!

This may seem a just cause from a worldly point of view, but it is no a just one from a Spiritual view, since its ultimate aim is to see the destruction of the modern state of Israel and the final destruction of the Jewish race, but if we read the Holy Bible this fate is not part of Gods plan?

So we need to make a wise course of action now and know that we are saved and pressing on in the will of Gods plans for our lives, awaiting the historical events of the book of Revelation and the return of our Lord as promised.

Zechariah 2:8, Acts 1:6-11, 2 Corinthians 4:4. Hebrews 4:11-16, 9:26, 10:10, 1 John 2:11.

BLM. Dishonesty!

The world has moved on? 

Things hoped for have been lost in the U.K. with the leader getting shot and another accused of stealing from the funds raised, leaving white guilt upset and looking interest in the cause!

Black people commit the same failings as the rest of the races do, many years ago the Northern-Ireland peace people movement fell into the same scandal of its founders falling into temptation?

Money is attractive, along with greed and when it is not ours we have the habit of indulging our selves in its danties!

Matthew 26:41, 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Peter 2:3.

Charles III!

 Most leaders in the world are Humanistic.

This is the limited outlook of world leadership, even many who claim to be Christians use pluralism to guise themselves as not being a squeaky clean as they want to be seen in the media!

The Holy Bible tells us that we are all failures in light of God's high standard, one prefers those who make no claims as to their religion or non and those are the some who are honest and show integrity and respect to others?

We need to be more focused on Jesus our Lord, knowing who we are and awaiting his return in the hope of our salvation, we will then feast with him at the marriage table and that will be much richer for us than any human. meal!

Luke 14:12-24, Matthew 7:7-8, John 3:3, 14-18, Hebrews 9:26, 10:10, Jude 1:7, Revelation 3:20.

Fossil fuels, carbon Emissions?

 Economic woes and big Business!

People are starting to get tired of protests over the burning of fossil fuels, because it is spoiling their needs in sport, in travel and in driving from A to Z?

Climate protestors are causing infuriation that could lead to they getting killed by stressful drivers, the self employed and others who are on tight shifts?

The other hypocrisy comes from exporting diesel vehicles to the Ukraine and a war breaking out in Sudan, which only increases carbon in the atmosphere!

Wisdom is called for in these matters, since many governments are giving up nuclear power to go back to coal and oil and why? 

Because this is where the money is in the investment of shares and the speculation on the international markets!

Genesis 41:39, Deuteronomy 1:13, Psalm 2:10, Proverbs 3:7, 1 Corinthians 1:19-20, Ephesians 5:15.

Samson and Esther!

 Acting on faith for the right Time?

In the book of Esther God is not mentioned, while in the life of Samson, many thought he was a crazy guy and yet they knew they were in the will of God, but their respective timings had to be right!

We can gain much of a lesson from these two people, patience and perseverance are key to working with faith, but also we can learn much from others like Noah, Abraham and the Apostle Paul, if not John who out lived all surviving a death camp!

Each of us is an individual and through the power workings of the Holy Spirit we will be lead in a different way, some will have to stay put like the mad man that Jesus healed and others go out like Phillip to being translated?

Judges 14:1-12, 16:26-30, The Book of Esther, Matthew 7:7-8, John 3:8, Hebrews 11:32, Revelation 3:20.

LOVE!

 Something the world could do with a lot of?

From the Ukraine to Turkiye, from the Philippines to Africa and South-America wars and conflicts are continuing along with natural disasters, storms, floods, droughts and terrible earthquakes that have killed over fifty-thousand people!

World leaders are acting like petty children looking to make trouble at the cost of the peoples of nations and seeking fame in history for their own selfish ambition?

Meanwhile God is mucking up their plans, economically and militarily with the middle-east, with many nations not cooperating with the United States or Europe, while others are moving into new alliances and leaving behind four hundred years of slavery and colonial exploitation!

Only those who do the right things in relation to God, will get justice and those who seek to oppose God, will soon find that He will remove them and the whole board game will change colours!

Numbers 23:19, Judges 3:1-3, 2 Samuel 14:20, Psalm 55:19, Daniel 7:25, Zephaniah 3:9, Matthew 21:32, Luke 6:27, John 3;16, Galatians 3:8, 1 Peter 4:8. 

Two months of illness.

 Life is Fickle?

One was going along well and then out of no where came illness and the ability not to do much, but rely on others for the basic needs and lay flat looking at the ceiling!

Many believers end up this way, the enemy does not like us serving God and seeing souls saved from His clutches and so accidents, crime and various forms of illness is sent to try and stop us!

Job was a righteous man and he lost everything, but he did not give up on God, when God allowed Satan to strike him. Job knew he had done nothing wrong and those three friends turned out to be miserable losses to him as companions?

Today we have a better comforter the Holy Spirit, who is our friend, helper and guarantee of our Salvation!

Job 1:6-22, 2:1-13, Psalm 41:3, John 11:4, 2 Corinthians 1:22, 5:5, Ephesians 1:14.
