Love Songs!

Most songs are about Love?

Human emotions are the most complex in nature, since we have been given authority over everything on Earth!

One wonders if psychology has looked into the effects negative and positive in relation to the love song, apart from music?

We do not really know if bird song is defence or romantic or just information to warn others, ‘Get off my Territory?

God loved and He has given us His son….John 3:16,  Jesus said through the Apostle Paul there is nothing greater than Love!  1 Corinthians 13:13.

Genesis 1:27-28,   Psalm 119:165,   Songs of Solomon 8:6-7,   Micah 7:9,   Matthew 6:12–15,  18:22,   Ephesians 4:26,   Hebrews 13:14,   1 Peter 1:22,   Revelation 3:19.

2019 Happy New Year?

Revelations and Disasters!

There is always something new to see or to experience and yet also new types of disasters that have not been seen in living memory? Space X is doing well, Virgin Atlantic have touched space and yet Indonesia has seen a Tsunami of a different kind!

Italy may face an eruption and more from Etna, Iceland still awaits its big turmoil and we enter the new year with great expectation in science and  medicine, but we still have to contend with Ebola and several other serious diseases or viruses!

God does not change through all these human years of history, since He exists outside of time! This year may bring us much and yet it is of the most importance, whoever we are that we know the Lord and have faith in Him! Knowing our sins can be forgiven, that we are back with the Father in His love and have that full assurance of Salvation!

Acts 1:7,   John 4:23-24,   Leviticus 19:26,   Colossians 2:2-15,  1 Thessalonians 5:1,   Jude 1:3,   Hebrews 11:5.

armistice?

culmination!

Its one hundred years since the end of World War-I (1914-18), ‘The wars to end all wars? But the truth was it was the beginning of a new age in warfare with the introduction of many new things, radio communications, mustered gas, flamethrowers and the tank!

It was also the age of the first use of aerial combat from ‘Dog fighting to bombing raids, by German airships over London and all gentlemanly of course!

What was gained was enough knowledge for world war-II (1939-45), were eugenics was fulfilled in the Nazi Holocaust and new atomics and rocketry  were also part of the new culmination of wars!

God wants us believers to really remember those who went before us and to see what he has done for us in redeeming us back to Him through Jesus! To understand that we have a precious salvation and the promise of an eternal life with Him!

Numbers 31:6,  Judges 3:10,  Psalm 120:7,  Jeremiah 14:15,  Acts 4:26,  Hebrews 9:11-12,  14,  12:1-2,  Revelation 17:14.

Fire, fruit and Pruning! Two.

Our accountability and Responsibility?

Our relationship with God, through Jesus is part of the New Life that we have entered into, but this is a two way friendship and not a material or spiritual reliance! We ask and God will just keep giving more and more, we too have a role to play in serving, worshipping, praying and witnessing our faith to others?

The worlds ways today have invaded the Church in many ways, that has allowed believers to be excused of many areas? These areas cover the practical side of concern, activity and friendship without bias, and one has to wonder why the numbers are going down!

Fellowship or mixing in some more traditional congregations is failing because of racism, class, respectability and even dress, we have become self appointed judges? Instead of looking out for peoples problems and trying to help each other at cost!

Genesis 39:6,  1 Chronicles 13:14,   Psalm 65:9,   95:7,   Luke 4:18,   Acts 20:7,   1 Timothy 3:5,  Hebrews 10:34.

DNA and Genetics. One.

Dangers of it, now being Highlighted?

It would seem that there is a new debate about the dangers and the long term effects of Genetic manipulation! Science is waking up to those early findings of wonderment may now not be so great as they had once hoped for?

The problem with the DNA of humanity is that we are stained by the inherited condition of sin, we can never escape this condition in the physical, but only in the Spiritual of God entering our lives!

Many cancers have been cured and this is fantastic for those sufferers, but many new ones have started to appear! Its just the same with gardening or farming, weeds are nuisance and very hard to eradicate?

Exodus 22:6,  Job 31:40,  Psalm 92:7,  Jonah 2:5,  Matthew 13:25-40,  John 3:3, 15-21,  31-36,  Hebrews 6:8.

Fire, fruit and Pruning! One.

The role of the Holy Spirit in the believers New Life?

When we are born again of the final atonement of Jesus death on the cross and resurrection on the third day from the grave, because of our faith and repentance we individually receive the Holy Spirit!

First there is an inner fire, a flame of mixed passion and compassion for the lost around us, family and friends! We are eager with share our testimony and witness our faith and from this comes fruit, but we have also been given fruit the ability to use these divine and spiritual resources?

Then when we have learned how to use these gifts, we also will learn how to prune back the elements that are not profitable, so that all may be refined to start afresh and press on?

John 15:1-16,   Acts 2:3,   1 Corinthians 3:13,   12:6-30,   Galatians 5:22,    Jude 1:23.

Ever Darkness. One.

The Lords Return!

We have been warned in the Holy Bible that the world is getting worse in its lack of morality and also in its sincerity towards each other!

We are warned that the love of many will grow cold, this is more so with believers than with the world who are already there on the insides!

But we have to continue to live in the world and face daily hostility on different levels, sometimes insults, jeers and other times worse like threats and intimidation? But the answer to these problems is opposite to what the human nature demands anger and strife, we are asked to rejoice to be happy to praise God!

Psalm 7:17,  68:4,  Matthew 24:12,  Luke 10:21,  2 Corinthians 12:20,  1 Thessalonians 4:17,  James 4:1-4,  1 John 4:20,  Revelation 1:7.

My Witness?

Fact from Fiction!

When it comes to the resurrection of Jesus, the unbelievers make a big song and dance about who said what and there were only a few who knew Him?

But they have got it wrong, because over five-hundred people, not initially known to each other met with Jesus! Some were Romans, other travellers, doubters, who failed to fathom immediately the events in Jerusalem!

Today our media is packed with fake news, from government propaganda to unverified reporting and we are pump-up to the point where ae have to believe it!

But millions world-wide today can confess a faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus, He who has changed their mental attitudes and promised them Salvation in their New and changed Lives!

Deuteronomy 19:19,  John 3:3,  15-21,  8:17,  Romans 6:23,  1 Corinthians 15:6,  2 Corinthians 13:1.

The Darkness. One.

Exodus and Easter.

God made His presence known on these two important occasions of deliverance for His people Israel from their slavery in Egypt and for our individual deliverance by Jesus shedding of blood on the cross/stake/tree for our sins!

God in His character is not dark, but rather pure light, truth and holiness and without sin, but we are told something of that dwelling place that we can never enter and that is a place of darkness!

This time of the year should be one of reflection on our own calling and salvation, while also hoping and praying for those lost around us that they might see the light that Jesus offers and turn to Him in confession and repentance of their own failures, seeking His forgiveness?

Genesis 1:2,   Exodus 10:21-22,   2 Samuel 22:10-12,   Psalm 18:11,   Matthew 27:45.

Quake n’ Shake!

The power of God?

For the first time in our lives we experienced a 4.4 minor earthquake in the U.K. on Saturday 17th February at 214pm, for many of us it was a tremendously scary   experience and ones heart goes out to all who have to live through much stronger ones!

The slippage of the crust is an area that is out of human control and prediction, much can be learned after the event but not before it?

It shows us that we are really very little and that God is very much in control of everything here and throughout the universe!

1 Kings 19:10-11,  Zechariah 14:5,  Matthew/Levi 27:54,  Luke 13:4,  Revelation 11:13.
