365 Prayers to JESUS
Jesus, oh how blessed are we among men that we can call on the Name of Jesus so openly and so freely. Praise You Lord for the freedom that exists in our lifetime and our generation that we have a country founded on the belief in The One True God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Lord, I pray for the strength and courage to keep it a privilege that we can have our churches and bibles. Forgive me Lord when I take this great blessing as just another freedom that abounds in plenty but in our abundance we have become lazy and in our laziness we are losing our freedoms bit-by-bit, so let me Lord daily recognize the peace and joy of starting my day with the Name of Jesus. AMEN
THE JESUS QUESTIONS
DECEMBER 26 THE JESUS QUESTIONS SUMMARY-13 of the Lessons, Lifestyle, and Parables of Jesus: JQ#1-JQ#31 (Matthew 1:1 thru 26:16) Jesus by circumstances surrounding Him and not of His own volition has already fulfilled enough prophecy that were He to do nothing else, Jesus could be shown to be the Messiah with the single event like His being a first born Jewish male in the town of Bethlehem from the lineage of King David but His Messiahship was completely sealed by the fact that His mother was a “virgin” when she gave Birth to Jesus, thus making her Seed pure, for the Seed came from God Himself making Jesus the Son of God. However, common logic demonstrates that if a bird gives birth, the offspring of that bird will be a bird and as that bird grows it will grow feathers like its parents and will eventually exhibit all characteristics of a bird and will someday take off and fly and anyone observing that bird in flight will not have to ask, I wonder if that bird’s parents are birds? This simple logic is God’s way of teaching us His TRUTH!!! In His Creation account found in Genesis, God made it clear that every living thing would reproduce “after its kind” and “whose seed is in itself” so the fact that God would put His Seed into a “virgin womb” in order that the seed would reproduce “after its kind” — which with the “Virgin Birth” event it can be seen that the mother’s womb was undefiled and her Seed was Holy therefore the “Offspring” of the “Virgin Birth” would grow in “Grace and Truth” and exhibit every characteristic of the Holy Father, thereby confirming that He indeed IS THE MESSIAH, the Son of the LIVING GOD, and being the offspring of an undefiled woman, Jesus is the Son of Man and coming from the Holy Seed of the Father, Jesus is the Only Begotten Son of God and just like the offspring of a bird will grow feathers and fly, so likewise will the Offspring of the Holy God grow in “Grace” and will speak “Truth”. If Jesus were not the Son of God, then He would not be able to “fly” with such natural ease that everyone that observes His Life will say as did the Roman centurion who saw how Jesus died at His Crucifixion, “Truly this Man was the Son of God!” (Mark 15:39) So the object of the Gospels are to demonstrate that Jesus proves Himself to be the Messiah both by His Life and His Death, and the Resurrection fulfills God’s Promise to His Only Begotten Son! Jesus is shown to be the Son of God because of prophecy, HIs “Virgin Birth”, His Holy Life, and His Perfect Sacrificial Death as the Lamb of God, and His Glorious Resurrection by the Father on the 3rd Day! We cannot but exhibit the nature of our parents and that was true of the Baby, born to a virgin in Bethlehem from the HOLY SEED OF GOD HIMSELF — and we still today call out the NAME OF JESUS!!!!!!!!
