Good morning. Jesus
reproached the cities where He did most of His miracles because they did not
repent. It's not surprising when people today reject signs and wonders, since
they rejected even Jesus when He did signs and wonders. However in the end
times they will follow those not of God who perform signs and wonders. Jesus
said, “all things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows
the Son, except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and
anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.” This is another place where Jesus
points out that you cannot know God apart from Jesus, the Son. Come to Me, all
who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you,
and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest
for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My load is light. Notice that it says
you will find rest for your souls – not for your bodies. This is not so much a
physical heavy laden, but an inward one. People, including preachers, can put
you under a heavy burden to live the way they say you should. In another place
Jesus talks about those who come up with many rules and regulations, and will
not lift a finger to help those upon whom they put the heavy burdens. One
cannot live the Christian life by following a bunch of rules and regulations.
As we've said before, you have to let go and let God. You do not have to follow
man's list of rules and regulations; you simply have to follow the leading of
the Holy Spirit. Father thank You that You are quickly healing the reader and
his/her family. Give them wisdom and insight of what to do.
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 ...
