This shall come to pass, if...:Zechariah 1-7

I try to be careful when I use the phrase "I promise". This is especially true when it comes to my children. They tend to feel it is is their responsibility to remind us of things said and forgotten.

I thank God that he is not like me- he has no problem with the phrase " I promise", for He has every intention to fulfill whatever he says.

God's character of mercy and compassion stand out to me as the theme in the old testament. (of course, this is the theme in the entire bible). In regard to the old testament, however, the relationship between God and Israel is constantly thwarted by Israel turning away from God, and God calling them back to him. He knows that they will land in sudden and utter destruction without Him. He has promises that he wants to fulfill.

You see, God WANTS to make good on his promises. He does not want forsake his will. He will not forsake his will.

2 Chronicles 16:9, reminds us that God is looking for those whose heart is perfect toward him, that he may show himself strong in their behalf.

In Zechariah 6:14, the word diligent is used. God says that this shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord.

God wants to fulfill his promises. The choice is yours to be prepared for the promises fulfilled toward you.
It will manifest; It SHALL come to pass.

Mission: Christmas Blessing

Peace & love everybody! I've been so excited it's been hard to contain myself regarding today's mission! I hope that after reading this post, you'll be as encouraged as I am now! Known by most today as "the last Stalinist country" and according to VOM, "one of the most repressive and isolated regimes in the world", North Korea needs our prayers, monetary support, and volunteers. It's even being reported that a holocaust is occurring there as I'm writing this! Christians are being tortured, killed, and having "experiments" run on them all because they testify that Jesus is their Lord. Read a short synopsis of what Persecution.com has to say about North Korea and check out their related links. Thanks to our family over at The Voice of the Martyrs, we will be able to encourage and support our North Korean brothers and sisters! With our donations of $50 we will be able to sponsor a package that will have hard-to-get essentials, ...

all we need , is in Him

Colossians 2:8-10, 12 KJV Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. sin nailed to the cross - image from web Philosophy, traditions, and all the other ways man uses to try and understand God can only get us so far- if anywhere at all. Sometimes fooling with the newest method and the trendiest biblical insight, or perspectives, takes us in circles. The surest way to learn God, and to get understanding of His Word is through the Holy Ghost. 1 Corinthians 2:11 tells us that only the Spirit of God can know the things of God. And everything that is God, can be found bodily in Christ. In Christ we a...
