The God of ages, we serve


Acts 5:30
The God of our fathers raised Jesus from the dead — whom you had killed by hanging him on a tree.


Exposition

Peter is making clear that his faith in Jesus didn't just begin with Jesus. It began with the Patriarchs, the great Jewish fathers.

The God who blessed them also raised Jesus from the dead, even though Jesus had been executed in the most heinous and degrading way possible for a faithful Jew — he was nailed to a cross, something that was both illegal and a sign of being cursed under Jewish Law.

He raised Jesus from the dead and exalted him and made him our Savior and our Lord. Praise God!


Prayer 

Thank you, dear Father, for showing your power over evil, sin, hate, jealousy, and death. In the name of Jesus, my Lord and Savior, I offer my praise and thanksgiving. Amen.

You're Nothing without Me, says the LORD

Matthew:19.26  Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Exposition Beloved, God is God. His potency makes Him God. His independence in decisions makes Him God. His ability to known and seen everywhere is what makes Him different from  humanity. This being known, why are you still seeing impossibilities in what you do? Have you forgotten about God's existence so soon? Don't be doing the probability calculation for God. He's a mathematician on His own. Don't think for Him either, He has His own head to reason. Whatever thing you are doing, whatever you so dream about ; God is making it possible. The word said 'This' meaning there's that particular thing that seems impossible to man, but to God, It's ever possible. God is able to do, just what He says He will do. Just invite Him, He is ever ready to help. He's only waiting on your call. Prayer Father, have mer...

They Will Hate You! 😔

Mark 13:13   Everyone will hate you because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.  Exposition   Being a Christian, is you defending christ? He has fulfilled His mission of dying for humanity to attain grace in the presence of God.  Persecutions are inevitable once you’re a Christian. The hate doesn’t begin from other people but yourself.  Your flesh wrestles with the spirit of God. Even before the world hates you.  Buts stand firm, believe in God. He is with you and by grace, you’ll make it to His kingdom.  Prayer Dear Lord, grant me the strength to endure to the end in Jesus’s Name.

BE PATIENT! God is At work.

Many often, we lose patients when our needs delayed, especially after many sleepless nights of prayers and fasting.  Did you know that Job could have just cursed God and move on with life, as his wife advised? But why didn't he?  Job believed God was making something more valuable and special than what he's lost for him.  Be patient, wait on God's approval before you proceed in pursuing your life goals and dreams. Life is temporary and becomes shorter when you lived in your own understanding and dictation.  David always consulted God in everything he does, even with the petty things he knew he could do by himself, he still consulted God anyway. How much more for you?  Be patient, wait on God's directives before you begin your initiative, God is close to you, He's just busy working better things out for you. Believe! (References: the book of Job, 1 Samuel 16-31)
