#Change is one thing that you can count on! As a young child, I thought everything was #unchanging as time seemed to stand still. With maturity, the years seem to have a snowball effect. (Every day rolling more swiftly than the one before) I simply cannot recognize the society today compared to seventy years ago. The song “Where have all the good men gone” reminds me of our mortality… We cannot stop time, but we can prepare for immortality with the LORD who never changes! Mal.3:6 “For I AM THE LORD, I CHANGE NOT” (what about us?) 1Corth.15:53-58“this perishable must put on the imperishable and this mortal must put on immortality. .. then will come about the saying that is written, ‘Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory: O death, where is your sting?’ The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law; but thanks be to GOD, who gives us the VICTORY THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the LORD, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the LORD.” What a comfort to rely on the Word of our LORD who IS UNCHANGING...You can take that to the bank! (and get His interest!)
Victory in Jesus
THE LIVING GOD #VICTOR
“The victor is the #winner in any #test of #skill or #strength in any #struggle. #Victory is the defeat of one’s opponent by conquest producing subjugation.” as defined in Webster’s dictionary. I see our society backing away from promoting individual victors and national victory. Many just follow the yellow brick road without a clue where they are going as long as there is entertainment and the promise of sustenance.(Pied Piper Syndrome) Yet, God’s Word promotes Victory for us individually and as a nation “if” we turn from our wicked ways (Jer.18:8) and turn to the only true living Lord, our creator, sustainer, and Savior. It is written in the old testament Isaiah 42:1-4 and new testament Matthew 12:20,21 what Esaias the prophet said prophetically about Jesus, “A bruised reed shall He not break, and smoking flax shall He not quench, till He send forth judgment unto Victory, and in His name shall the Gentiles trust.” 1John 5:1,4-5 “Whosoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: …Whoever is born of God overcomes the world and THIS IS THE VICTORY THAT OVERCOMES THE WORLD, even our FAITH. Who is he that overcomes the world, but HE THAT BELIEVES THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD.” Be a WINNER, c h o o s e JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD….Share in His Victory. “THANKS BE TO GOD, WHO GIVES US THE VICTORY THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST” 1Corth15:57 As you enjoy the fireworks and music on this 4th of July, remember there is an Eternal Victory to celebrate!
