Jesus

The past few days we have been rejoicing in the Lord for HIs keeping power.  When we talk about keeping power, we are talking about the Holy Ghost and obedience to the word of God.  So many use the phrase 'IN Jesus Jesus Name' as it there is power in saying the name.  But the name with its authority is based on being Holy Ghost filled and obedience to the word of God.  Using His name to make things happen is not the Lords way.

The Lord has blessed us to continue in the faith of the gospel in preaching and teaching it.  Many love church, but do not know Jesus Christ.  Many love the activities of church but do not follow after the holiness of the Lord as required.

In the book of John chapter 6 verse 27 Jesus told them to labour for the meat that endureth unto everlasting life, which the son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.  In I Corinthians 15:58 the word of God tells us to be ye stedfast, unmovable, always abounding in THE WORK OF THE LORD......"  I asked the Lord what is the work of the Lord?  What should your people be abounding in?

Getting people to believe on Him as the scriptures have said.

How many really believe in Jesus Christ like the scriptures say?  Simon the sorcerer beloved, but not like the scriptures say.  The devil believes there is one God and he trembles.  How many believers tremble at the things of the Lord?

There is work to do.  And the work is not more conferences, meetings, special services and things of that nature.  The work needed is preaching, teaching, witnessing of the Lord Jesus Christ to the converting of the soul.  Many have heard the word, but not many have believed the word.  Many times in scriptures Jesus was among the religious people of the time and they seeing Jesus still did not believe.  In that same chapter of John chapter 6 verse 29 it reads, "Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the word of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."

What do you believe?
