God spoke and we should listen up. Honor thy father and thy mother, that thy days may be long upon the land.
Remember God and His great mercy for your life. Give Him thanks and praise this day in prayer and supplications.
There are many reasons why Halloween is of the devil and I pray that you will stop participating in it if you have not already.
Ephesians 5:22,23 (KJV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Husbands, love your wives. Wives, respect your husbands. Find out what the needs are of your spouse and fulfill them.
We are taught in the Bible to not worship angels. Even angels have told people to not worship them but God alone.
The truth is, Halloween is a very dark and devilish holiday. We are not to participate in it in any fashion for God’s sake.
Ephesians 2:10 (KJV)
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
The fruits of our faith are good works. Not the kind of good works that many people do in their lives, but things for God.
Ephesians 2:1-3 (KJV)
1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
The moment you put your trust in Jesus, a life change begins. You are not only saved but are now made different from within.
Happy Father’s Day to every father on earth and to our Father in heaven. Much thanks for what you are doing for your family.
Honor thy father and thy mother and you will be blessed. Picking one over the other to obey was never what God intended.
Ephesians 5:22-25 (KJV)
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
The Bible teaches that women are to respect their husbands, as men love their wives. In so doing, we do this unto the Lord.
Ephesians 4:4-6 (KJV)
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
We are all called by God differently, but still, we walk in the unity of the faith. Uplifting those around us with love and peace.
Ephesians 3:4-6 (KJV)
4 Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)
5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
God’s promises are now extended to the gentiles. These are those who accept Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross and believe in Him.
Ephesians 2:1,2 (KJV)
1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins;
2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
God is merciful unto every person who calls upon the Lord for forgiveness. He hears our confessions and knows our hearts.
Ephesians 1:3-5 (KJV)
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,
The Father chose His people before the foundation of the world. He knew who would accept His Son’s sacrifice for sin and be saved.
When we go out in faith for Christ, this is when He also does a work in us like no other. Open your mouth and He will fill it.
Why aren’t more people getting baptized? It is because many pastors are teaching that baptism is not important for salvation.
Ephesians 6:1-3 (KJV)
1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.
2 Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise;
3 That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth.
Children need to learn to love and honor both of their parents equally. This is God’s commandment for all kids in the faith.
Ephesians 2:8-10 (KJV)
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Only Jesus can transform your lives and raise you up unto salvation. By grace are ye saved through faith. His mercy is for you!
Ephesians 6:10-12 (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
There is only one way we can win the battle against temptation. It is through the armor of God in our lives.
