Greetings sisters!
I hope you are pressing on for the kingdom today! We want to walk worthy of such a great God as ours. We are children of light not of darkness.
Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
(For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Ephesians 5:7-11
But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
1 Thessalonians 5:4-6
Those are great encouraging scriptures of how things are and how we are to be!
It is always fascinating seeing all the things that particularly Jesus fulfilled in His life. Truly He is the mystery kept secret from the foundation of the world but now fully revealed!
And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.
And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.
But God raised him from the dead:
Acts 13:28-30
We know Jesus' death was no mere plan of man but the perfect plan of God. He laid down His own life in His own power! He died for our sins. For this we can be eternally grateful to Him.
Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
Matthew 26:52-54
I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.Mark 14:49
And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.Mark 15:28
For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.John 19:36
It's amazing realizing that our Lord fulfilled so much of the Old! It's such a good subject to look into and it really helps you read the Old Testament in a different way as well as you see the Saviour foretold right through and many things pointing towards Him!
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.Matthew 5:17-18
Let us follow after our Saviour! He is the way the truth and the life!
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;Hebrews 10:19-20
For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.Hebrews 7:19
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
Hebrews 8:6-7
But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Acts 13:37-39
Let us hear Him.
And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.Luke 9:35
For it is serious if we do not heed Him.
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
Hebrews 10:26-31
Keep walking in the fear of God sisters. Let us watch and be ready.
But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer.1 Peter 4:7
Love to you in His name. Keep pressing on in all your duties as godly women and do them all with joy as unto the Lord and heartily! May we keep our eyes on Christ our Saviour!
