Good morning Family and Friends, may u experience the favor, goodness, grace, awesomeness, blessings, breakthrough, mercies of God throughout this day, week. May u walk in the overflow of God's love, provision. Take care. Shalom👐👐

Good morning Saint of God, hope you slept well. May goodness and mercy be your portion. My encouragement to you today is this:-

LIVING WATERS. ..

Notice in John 7:37-39 that Jesus did not say rivers of living water will flow ONCE IN A WHILE from those who believe in Him. He said these rivers of living water will flow CONTINUOUSLY. That living water is the Holy Spirit.

In this passage, Jesus talks about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, which we have received if we have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior-the Person and the power of the Holy Spirit in us.

The river of living water flows within you and me. It is not supposed to be stopped up, but it is to bubble up within us and flow out of us. And we can release the power of that living water in an even greater measure by receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Ask God to fill you up today.

Shalom👐👐👐👐

Good morning Family and Friends, hope you had an amazing nite rest, njoy n stunning day, wknd. My encouragement is this:-

Truth is one of the most powerful weapons a believer has against the kingdom of darkness. Truth is light, and the Bible says that the darkness has never overpowered the light, and it never will (John 1:5).

Jesus said that truth will set us free (John 8:32).

Jesus could have showed His disciples all the truth, but John 16:12-13 reveals that He knew they were not ready for it. He told them that they needed to wait until the Holy Spirit came down from Heaven to abide with them and to dwell in them (Luke 24:49). We know that after Jesus ascended into heaven, He did indeed send the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:1-18).

How can we have the Holy Spirit work in our lives if we don't face truth? He is called "The Spirit of Truth" (John 16:13). A major face of His ministry to you and me is to help us face truth- to bring us to a place of truth, because only the truth will set us free.

Shalom👐👐👐

Apostolic and Prophetic Greetings to the Body of Christ. Have yourselves a wonderful Monday. My encouragement is this:-

NOW NO CHASTENING FOR THE PRESENT...

“Now no chastening for the present seems to be joyous, but grievous—nevertheless afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto those who are exercised thereby.” - Heb 12:11

It may be said of spiritual exercises as the Apostle speaks of chastening generally, of which indeed they form a component part, that “for the present they are not joyous, but grievous; but afterward they yield the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto those who are exercised thereby.”

Why the Lord allows so many of his people to be so long and so deeply tried about their saving interest in Christ, why he does not more speedily and fully manifest his pardoning love to their souls, is a mystery which we cannot fathom. But I have observed that, where the first work was not attended with deep and powerful convictions of sin, it is usually the case, as if what was lacking in depth has to be made up in length, and a slow, continuous work compensates, as it were, for a shorter and more intense one.

I consider it, however, a great mercy where there are these exercises, for I am well convinced that exercise is as much needed for the health of the soul as of the body.

Without movement the air becomes pestilential, and water putrescent. Motion is the life of the natural, and equally so of the supernatural, creation; and what are exercises, doubts, and fears, accompanied as they always are by desires and prayers, but means by which the soul is kept alive and healthy?

As Hezekiah said, “O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit.”

But if you cannot see what good exercises have done you, can you not see what evil they have kept you from? They mainly kept you from being entangled in a worldly system; they have preserved you from resting in the form without the power, and kept you from that notional dead-letter faith which has ruined so many thousands.

(This extract was taken from a letter to a friend.) Without exercises you could do without a revealed Christ, without manifested pardon of sin, without the love of God being shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Spirit.

And here most are, who are not exercised—resting in “a name to live,” and in the doctrine without the experience. But, being sick, you need a physician; being guilty, you need mercy; and being a sinner, you need salvation; and all this, not in word and name, but in reality, and divine revelation and application.

Your exercises give you errands to the throne of mercy, and make you see in Christ and his precious gospel what otherwise would neither be seen nor cared for.

At the same time, it would be wrong to rest in exercises as marks and evidences of grace. Thirst is good as preparatory for water; hunger is good as antecedent to food; but who can rest in thirst or hunger?

Without them, water and food are not desired; so, without exercises, Christ, the Water and Bread of life, is not desired nor longed for. But these exercises are meant to quicken longing desires after Christ, and eventually make him very precious.

Greetings to the Remnant of God. May you experienced God glory in the fullest. My encouragement is this:-

BUT OF GOD WHO SHOWS MERCY....

“So then it is not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God who shows mercy.” - Rom 9:16

He that is not interested in the eternal election of God the Father, in the atoning blood and justifying righteousness of God the Son, in the work and witness of God the Holy Spirit, whatever be his name, sect, denomination or profession; whatever be his outward conduct, the doctrines he professes, or the creed to which he signs his name, he will die as Esau died, as Balaam died, as Saul died, as Judas and Ahithophel died.

He will never see the King in his beauty; never see the land afar off; never see the new Jerusalem, nor the blood of sprinkling, “that speaks better things than the blood of Abel.”

But every living soul that has been feelingly taught his lost condition, that has known something of a resting-place in Christ, that has turned his back upon the world and the professing church, and gone weeping Zionward, in whose heart God the Holy Spirit has implanted those solemn desires, and (if I may use the expression) those solemn determinations under the divine teaching, not a determination of free will, but the inward determination of grace strengthened to it by the Spirit of God, “to join himself to the Lord in a perpetual covenant never to be forgotten”—that he may live in Jesus and die in Jesus, live out of Jesus and unto Jesus, that he may feel his power, taste his love, know his blood, rejoice in his grace; every such soul shall, like Israel of old, be borne safely through this waste-howling wilderness, shall be carried through this valley of tears, and taken to enjoy eternal bliss and glory in the presence of Him whom to see as he is, constitutes the blessedness of the redeemed.

Every such poor, exercised, tempted soul shall be brought into a personal enjoyment of Christ below and of Christ above, so as to enjoy a foretaste of heaven here, and hereafter to bathe in the ocean of endless bliss.

Shalom 👏👏👏👏

Warm hearted greetings to all my Family and Friends. May you experience the blessings of God in n supernatural way in all u do n ask of God. Njoy ur wknd to the fullest. My encouragement is this:-

THEREFORE THEY FEAR NOT GOD...

“Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God.” - Ps 55:19

True religion is certainly the most weighty, and yet the most mysterious matter that we ever have had or can have to do with in this world.

And I will tell you this, that it will either comfort you, or it will distress you. It will either exercise your mind, trouble your soul, cast down your spirit, and make you truly miserable, or else be the source of your choicest comfort and your greatest happiness.

From religion come our deepest sorrows and highest joys, the greatest uneasiness and the sweetest peace.

There is this peculiar feature about true religion, that in the greatest prosperity it may be the cause to us of the chief trouble, or in the greatest adversity be to us the cause of the purest joy.

What are wealth or health, rank or titles, and every comfort the world can afford to a wounded spirit? What are poverty, sickness, persecution, contempt, a garret or a prison to a soul basking in the smiles of eternal love?

Religion will surely make itself felt wherever it exists, and will testify by its power to its presence.

If, then, you are a partaker of true religion, be you who, where, or what you may, you cannot be at ease in Zion, for there will be ever something working up out of your own heart or arising from some other quarter to make you uneasy.

Job was once at ease, but he was not allowed to die in his soft nest. He therefore says, “I was at ease, but he has broken me asunder—he has also taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces, and set me up for his mark.”

And yet with all this unexpected and apparently cruel treatment, he could still say, “Behold, my witness is in heaven, and my record is on high.” And though so exercised and distressed that he had to cry out, “I have been reduced to skin and bones and have escaped death by the skin of my teeth.

Have mercy on me, my friends, have mercy, for the hand of God has struck me.” Yet he could add, in all the confidence of faith, as desirous that his words might stand forever upon record—“Oh, that my words could be written. Oh, that they could be inscribed on a monument, carved with an iron chisel and filled with lead, engraved forever in the rock.

But as for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and that he will stand upon the earth at last. And after my body has decayed, yet in my body I will see God! I will see him for myself. Yes, I will see him with my own eyes. I am overwhelmed at the thought!” Job 19:23-27

Apostolic and Prophetic Greetings to the Body of Christ. May you have a great, stunning, stupendous, awesome, amazing day. My word of encouragement today is this:-

LIKEWISE THE SPIRIT ALSO HELPS OUR INFIRMITIES...

“Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities; for we know not what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” - Rom 8:26

“We know not what we should pray for as we ought.” How often do we find and feel this to be our case.

Darkness covers our mind; ignorance pervades our soul; unbelief vexes our spirit; guilt troubles our conscience; a crowd of evil imaginations, or foolish or worse than foolish wanderings distract our thoughts; Satan hurls in thick and fast his fiery darts; a dense cloud is spread over the mercy-seat; infidelity whispers its vile suggestions, until, amid all this rabble throng, such confusion and bo***ge prevail that words seem idle breath, and prayer to the God of heaven but empty mockery.

In this scene of confusion and distraction, when all seems going to the wreck, how kind, how gracious is it in the blessed Spirit to come, as it were, to the rescue of the poor bewildered saint, and to teach him how to pray and what to pray for. He is therefore said “to help our infirmities,” for these evils of which we have been speaking are not willful, deliberate sins, but wretched infirmities of the flesh.

He helps, then, our infirmities by subduing the power and prevalence of unbelief; by commanding in the mind a solemn calm; by rebuking and chasing away Satan and his fiery darts; by awing the soul with a reverential sense of the power and presence of God; by presenting Jesus before our eyes as the Mediator at the right hand of the Father; by raising up and drawing forth faith upon his Person and work, blood and righteousness; and, above all, by himself interceding for us and in us “with groanings which cannot be uttered.”

When the soul is favored thus to pray, its petitions are a spiritual sacrifice, and its cries enter the ears of the Lord Almighty, for “He that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God” (Rom. 8:27; James 5:4; 1 Peter 2:5).

Greetings to you as the Ecclesia of God. May joy and peace be your portion in this day. I just want to share this word with you today:-

KEEP YOURSELVES IN THE LOVE ...

“Keep yourselves in the love of God.” - Jude 1:21

When Christ is made known to our soul by the power of God, we have views of truth in him, of happiness in him, and of deliverance.

“As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him.” We receive him as the Son of the Father in truth and love; we receive him as suitable to our needs and woes; we receive him as putting away sin by the sacrifice of himself, and endearing himself to our heart in the sweet manifestation of his Person, goodness, and love.

Now as long as Christ and the soul are together, there is no place for error, and no place for evil. He makes the soul tender, the heart upright, the spirit broken and contrite, truth precious, error hateful, and sin loathsome and detestable. And while he and the soul are engaged together, error cannot approach nor evil find an entrance, so as to get any standing-ground in the heart.

But error is very subtle; it addresses itself to our reasoning powers; and when we lose sight of Christ, then error very easily creeps in; or if not error, some special lust, or something ungodly, seems by degrees to obtain power and influence, and we gradually decline from the strength of faith, the confidence of hope, and the sweet affections of love, and drop, it may be, into a cold, carnal, careless, lifeless state, where we lie open to the invasion of error and the temptations of Satan as an angel of light or an angel of darkness.

But now Jude comes and says, “Keep yourselves in the love of God; and I will tell you, if you will listen to me, how you shall do it. You must build up yourselves on your most holy faith.” God has laid a foundation for your faith in his holy word; he has laid Christ as a foundation in your own soul. That is a very strong foundation; it is of God’s own laying. It is very solid; it will bear any weight laid upon it.

And therefore you must build up yourselves upon that most holy faith if you would have a religion which stands; because if your religion, or any part of your religion, be built upon another foundation, it will not stand. But if you build up yourselves on your most holy faith, then everything you build upon it will stand, because it rests upon the foundation, and is in harmony with it.

Shalom🙌🙌🙌🙌

Apostolic and Prophetic Greetings to the Remnant of God. Have a bless and anointed day. Just want to share this word with you:-

BUILDING UP YOURSELVES ON YOUR MOST HOLY FAITH...

“But you, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.” - Jude 1:20

By the words “most holy faith,” we may understand chiefly the grand truths of the everlasting gospel which are revealed unto and embraced by faith. And they are called “our most holy faith,” because they are imbued with all the holiness of God; and not only so, but as they are received into believing hearts, communicate sanctification, because they have a liberating, sanctifying efficacy.

The words “build up” assume that there is a foundation laid. Christ is that foundation which God has laid in Zion, a chief corner-stone, elect, precious; and where Christ is revealed to the soul by a divine power, a foundation is laid in the heart on which every subsequent truth is to be built up.

The grand thing to be clear of in our own experience is, whether Christ has been laid as a foundation in our souls or not, and if he has, we have been driven from every other as finding no rest or peace but in him. If ever he has been revealed to our souls by the mighty power of God, then we have seen and felt that in him there is a foundation on which we can stand, and that for eternity.

As the Son of the Father in truth and love; having come to finish the work which the Father gave him to do; having put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, and brought in an everlasting righteousness in which we may stand justified, there is a foundation on which a poor, guilty soul may rest.

When this foundation is brought near, and we, by the power of God’s grace, are lifted up to rest upon it, we can say, “How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in his excellent word.”

“Other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ” (1 Cor. 3:11).

Shalom 🙌🙌🙌🙌.

Apostolic and Prophetic Greetings to the Remnant of God. Have a fabulous day, wknd. I just want to encourage you with this word:

IT SHALL BRING FORTH NEW FRUIT...

“It shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary.” - Ezek 47:12

There is always something new in the things of God. Here is a passage perhaps in the word of God that we have read and read again and again without seeing or feeling anything in it; but all of a sudden there may come a blessed flash of light upon it; we now see something in it that we have never seen before, something exceedingly sweet and precious.

It is now all new; it is received as new, felt as new, fed upon as new, relished as new. It seems as though we never saw anything in the passage before. So with prayer; so with hearing. You may perhaps have had your soul shut up in distress and bo***ge and misery for months; you could scarcely trace anything of the life of God in you. But under the preached word, it may have pleased God to drop something which has come into your heart with warmth, and life, and feeling.

Oh, how new it is! It is as new as though it were never heard before; it seems as though the eyes were now first opened to see new things, and the ears were opened to hear new things, and the heart opened to receive new things.

The Lord thus fulfils that blessed promise, “He that sits upon the throne says, Behold, I make all things new!” “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new.”

WE PREACH CHRIST

“For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom—but we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness.” - 1 Cor 1:22-23

The mystery of the cross can be received only by faith. To the Jews it was a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, it is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

When, then, we can believe that the Son of God took part of our flesh and blood out of love and compassion for our souls; that there being no other way which even heaven itself could devise, no other means that the wisdom of God could contrive whereby sinners could be saved, but by the death of the cross, then the mystery shines forth with unspeakable luster and glory.

The shame, the ignominy, what the Apostle calls the “weakness” and “foolishness” of the cross disappear, swallowed up in a flood of surpassing grace; and faith views it as a glorious scheme of God’s own devising, and of the Son of God’s approving and accomplishing.

Viewed in this light how glorious it appears, that by suffering in our nature all the penalties of our sin, Jesus should redeem us from the lowest hell and raise us up to the highest heaven.

How full of unspeakable wisdom was that plan whereby he united God and man by himself becoming God-man; empowering poor worms of earth to soar above the skies and live forever in the presence of him who is a consuming fire.

How glorious is that scheme whereby reconciling aliens and enemies unto his heavenly Father, he summons them, when death cuts their mortal thread, to mount up into an eternity of bliss, there to view face to face the great and glorious I AM; to be forever enwrapped in the blaze of Deity, and ever folded in the arms of a Triune God.

It is this blessed end, this reward of the Redeemer’s sufferings, blood shedding and death, which lifts our view beyond the depths of the fall and the misery of sin, as we see and feel it in this miserable world.

It is this view by faith of the glory which shall be revealed which enables us to see what wisdom and mercy were in the heart of God when he permitted the Adam fall to take place.

It is as if we could see the glory of God breaking forth through it in all the splendor of atoning blood and dying love, securing to guilty man the joys of salvation, and bringing to God an eternal revenue of praise.

Kingdom Blessings.
