Good morning. I hope
everything is going well with you. My power was out for an hour and a half
yesterday during the storm. We are back in Psalms today. God be gracious to us
and bless us, and cause His face to shine upon us. God blesses us that all the
ends of the earth may fear Him. When we walk in the presence of the Lord, His
face does shine upon us. And when it does, the blessings flow towards us. And
why does He bless us? One reason of course is that He loves us; but it is also
so that nonbelievers will see how He blesses us and will want to come to Him.
They see that He blesses us in the midst of all the crises going on around us.
We must serve an awesome God, they say, if He does that for us. Let God arise
and His enemies be scattered. He is a father of the fatherless and a judge for
the widows. He is with you to bring about justice and mercy. He will never
leave you nor forsake you. God makes a home for the lonely; only the rebellious
dwell in a parched land. That does not mean that we never go through a parched
land – we just don't dwell there. It's not our home. Blessed be the Lord, who
daily bears our burden. The God who is our salvation. God is to us a God of
deliverances; and to God the Lord belong escapes from death. He bears your
burdens and delivers you from all harm. The God of Israel gives strength and
power to the people. Blessed be God! Father thank You that You are a judge for
the reader. You guide and protect him/her. You bear his/her burdens and deliver
him/her. Give him/her and his/her family a great day.
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 ...
