SURE and STRONG

 

JESUS said:

Matthew 7:24-25

King James Version

24 Therefore whosoever heareth 

these sayings* of mine, and doeth them, 

I will liken him unto a wise man, 

which built his house upon a rock:

25 And the rain descended, 

and the floods came, 

and the winds blew, 

and beat upon that house; 

and it fell not: 

for it was founded upon a rock.

What makes us certain about life?

What makes us strong in this world?

The world is filled with tons of temptations.

And tons of traps, that aim to ensnare us all.

We all need to be born again, to have a robust heart.

SPIRIT, through Scripture, will guide us every moment.

We will know the things that matter.

Such as being aligned with GOD's will.

We will know the commands we need to obey.

That our life, and our family's life, can be secure.

Not through fame, or fortune, but through FAITH in GOD.

Unless we follow JESUS, we cannot survive this world.

We need the strength of His mind, that we may survive.

Satan will wear us out, every chance he can get.

Unless our foundation is rooted firmly in CHRIST, we will succumb.

A TRUE BORN AGAIN is steady.

Because of these things:

We LIVE by the BIBLE.

It is the NONNEGOTIABLE gospel.

It is NOT a gospel of accommodation.

We are FREE from ambivalence.

We live FREE of distraction.

We are CONFIDENT in CHRIST.

We are HAPPY with JESUS.

We have VICTORY through JESUS.

We are SOLDIERS of CHRIST.

We are ROCK steady.

We know GOD's PLAN of SALVATION.

We have PEACE through JESUS.

He is our CHIEF Corner Stone.

GOD is STEADY.

JESUS is CONSISTENT.

The ONLY thing that will REMAIN is GOD's WORD.

GOD's WORD stands forever.

As WATCHMEN, we are STEADY at our posts:

"We remain steady, at our posts.

Waiting for our Master's command.

That we may know what to do, where to be, how to act.

We rely on His EVERY command.

Thus, we wait, watch, warn, worship.

His will, ways, and wisdom are planted upon our hearts."

-- "The WARRIOR's protection"

Our pillar is CHRIST.

Our pillow is the WORD.

Our peace is JESUS.

Our homes are fortified with GOD's TRUTH.

Our souls are safe from sin.

Our hearts belong to GOD.

Our minds are fixed on JESUS.

We wear the FULL ARMOR of GOD.

We sleep good nights because of the LORD.

Confident, and grateful, in His LOVE.

We are His.

John 10:27-28

King James Version

27 My sheep hear my voice, 

and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; 

and they shall never perish, 

neither shall any man 

pluck them out of my hand.

*NOTE:

Matthew 7:1-23 refers to what JESUS said about "these sayings of mine" .

The things we need to do.
