God will bless those who faithfully carry out the sowing of His word to seek the salvation of those who are lost.
It is a wonderful Bible truth that God seeks and knows the sinner even in the midst of their sin and rebellion.

We should seek to believe in God despite all our misplaced fears, for we are of more value to God than many sparrows. Matthew 10:29

The Bible tells us we are to be wise as serpents and as harmless as doves. What a contrast.
Jesus came to seek and to save that which was lost. Are you one of the lost he came to seek and save?

God is the only one who can work in your life to bring about change. Php 2:12-13.

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Jude 1:3-4. Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
God preserves Hs people in dark times by working in their lives as they contend for the faith. Are you contending for the faith or conceding your faith to this world?
Jude 1:8 warns against false teachers—"filthy dreamers"—who defile the body through immoral, sensual acts, reject divine and human authority, and blaspheme spiritual beings. They are dangerous because their distorted, subjective visions lead believers into sin and apostasy, promoting rebellion against God's order and leading to immorality You cannot replace or put more importance upon dreams instead of putting complete faith and trust in the Word of God. Let God be true and every man a liar!
After all God had done with and through Jonah he was still angry with God. We don't know if that is the way he stayed for the rest of his life. Are you still angry with God?

In todays world we need to make sure that in the area of our music we praise God and not sound like the its the devils music.
In contrast with being drunk with wine we are to be filled and controlled by the Spirit.

What is the most valuable thing you have in your life-- I hope that it is faith in Christ and salvation through Him alone

Revelation.1-18.I am he that liveth, and was dead- and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen- and have the keys of hell and of death.
Romans chp. 5-12-21. How sin ruined and stained humanity and how salvation through Christ saves sinners and the grace that reigns through their lives in righteousness.
A scriptural look at what the Bible teaches about the eternal security of the believer.
The book of Romans further declares how sinners can be made just before God only through the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross paying the full payment of our sin debt.
Romans chapter 4 tells us how Abraham believed the promise give to him by God and that faith was counted to him for righteousness. we too can have that righteousness imputed to us as we believe in Christ.
Romans chapter four teaches us that faith alone in Christ alone in the gospel is necessary for salvation.-Apologies for the sound quality.
Act 13-39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. -Gal 2-16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law- for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
A study in Romans. The law clearly shows our true condition before a Holy God. We are sinners and we need a Saviour to save us from the penalty of sin.
The bible truth is that we are all hopeless sinners in need of a Saviour who is Christ Jesus the Lord.
In spite of our background or circumstances we shall all be judged according to the truth. John 14-6.
When was the last time you made a bad choice and sorely regretted it-- God told the nation of Israel the cast and the consequences of not listening to God and going down to Egypt for help. God's way is always the best way. Isaiah 30-1-18. Proverbs 3-5-7.

Continuing a study in Matthew 24 concerning the King, His Kingdom and His return to rule and reign on earth.
The Child of God is eternally secure in Christ and kept by the power of God. But if that believer gets away from God it will result in chastisement for God's people. Hebrews 12-6 -For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth-.
The great trumpet spoken of Mathew 24-29-31 is not speaking of the rapture of the believers but the gathering of Israel by the Lord Jesus at His return at the end of the tribulation. Exodus 19-16-19. Isaiah 27-13 Ezekiel 20-34-44.
How are we justified in the sight of God. We are justified by faith alone from Genesis to Revelation. Not by works of righteousness we which we have done. Eph.2-8-9. Titus 3-5. Works and the Law can never make faith perfect-. Hebrews. 7-19 -For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did- by the which we draw nigh unto God.-
