Today's Edification (16 January 2025)


Salutations to my godly sisters! 


One more day we get to be God's servants! That is the main thing about us...we are His servants and children and are concerned with serving and obeying Him! 


And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
Luke 4:8


Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
2 Corinthians 6:17-18

It is an honour and a blessing to be able to serve such a wonderful God! And the inheritance to come is precious. May we strive on to be accounted worthy.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,
1 Peter 1:3-4


The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,
Ephesians 1:18-19


To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Acts 26:18

Very great things He has prepared for those who love Him!


May we sisters keep labouring in good works and earning our right to eat what the Lord has provided...

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. 

For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. 

Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. 

But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

2 Thessalonians 3:10-13


So may we keep on walking in the truth steadfastly sisters. And that involves doing our daily duties with thankfulness and contentment and not growing weary in them as it's pleasing to the Lord to be doing them! We don't want to be doing things grudgingly and we need to beat our flesh into submission if we have some of those thoughts as I am sure we will at times. But we may think of what a wonderful Lord we serve and do so with joy even in the every day repetitive chores!

May all our steps, all our hands do, what we say and what we write be pleasing to our Lord!

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
Psalm 19:14

 

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:1-2

 

For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.
Romans 14:18

 

Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
Ephesians 5:10

 

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:5

 

For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
1 Peter 2:20


Yes we must be acceptable to our Lord. Let us strive to walk worthy! He is so worthy! Press on one more day sisters! A lifetime of faithfulness will be made up of individual days of it. And yes some days may be better than others and such but we want to be holding fast and growing and overcoming so we will be found faithful when it's our last day. Will we have regrets? Oh yes I know our Saviour is so much more worthy than we can ever give Him glory for and the debt He paid is something we never could begin to pay off but we must do our best to obey Him and He sees if we are and knows our hearts. So strive on steadfastly sisters as good soldiers of His!

Love, peace, and mercy unto you.
