Good morning. This is from
Matthew chapter 18 verse 19: if two of you agree on earth about anything that
they may ask, it shall be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. Too many
times it's hard to get Christians to agree on anything. Of course it's hard to
get a group of any people to agree on anything. Each has their own idea about
what should happen. The word agree is like a symphony orchestra being in
harmony. If even one instrument is out of tune with all the rest, there is a
disaster. Maybe that's why it said two agree. It's easier for two to agree than
a whole group of people. Right before that it says whatever you shall bind
earth has already been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth has
already been loosed in heaven. It's already been done; we just need to agree
and proclaim it. So when we agree on something on earth, it has already been
done in heaven. No matter how impossible it may look, remember from chapter 19:
with man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. Father I
agree with the reader that all of his/her needs will be met; and that he/she
will make the right decisions about his/her future. Even though it may look
impossible, You are the God of all things possible.
Unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God
Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
