Freedom Alliance

Right now freedom alliance is the number one searched term on google.  This strategy brought 10 views yesterday, so I thought I would try it again today to see what happens.  It turns out that yesterday's term was a company name and today's is an organization.  But the phrases both can be applied to our lives in Christ.

Isaiah 44:22 "I have swept away your sins as the morning mists...I have paid the price to set you free."  Sounds like freedom to me.  Galatians 6:14 "God forbid that I should boast in anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ...".  I believe that when Christians know their freedom and know that it comes from only the cross, then we will become a freedom alliance that will take over the world.  An alliance is  a close association of nations or other groups, formed to advance common interests or causes. Imagine all the segregated denominations of the Church coming  together knowing a Loving Father who has taken away all their offense and boast not in themselves , but only in the Christ---Jesus.  One voice shouting in the wilderness--- preparing the way of His coming.  The problem is that we as Christians have let outside influence make us feel unworthy and therefore we do not shout.  I HAVE PAID THE PRICE TO SET YOU FREE.                                                      ---Be Blessed---c  

Good Friday

Good Friday. Good Friday for all who believe in The Way, The Truth and The Life---Jesus. To continue my thoughts for the week, what was Jesus doing that Friday morning? We can find an account of this in John chapter 18.
Verse one of chapter 18 says that after the last supper and the out-pouring of the Will of God, Jesus and the disciples went for a walk across the Kidron valley. We don't see that Jesus slept at all. He is arrested during the night and goes to trial before the High Priest and that trial ended in the early morning (John 18:28). We don't know how long exactly that Jesus had been awake before going to trial, but he was wholly man and fatigue had to be setting in. We see that He fully realized(Jn. 18:4) all that was going to happen to Him. Maunday Thursday ran into Good Friday. No rest. So as I awake this morning, Jesus had already been awake for probably 24 hours straight.
I wake up rested and while I was asleep, Jesus had poured out The Father's Will, been betrayed, been denied by his main man--3 times, sweat blood, prayed for every believer in the world, lied about, rejected by the officials of the people he came to save, and turned over to the government and put a soldier's ear back on!! Good Friday has just begun. What a Savior we have. I give Him all praise!! Be Blessed---c

Top of the day

Everyday is a day of potential.  We don't know what is going to happen.  I always try to start the day with the mind of Christ.  Whenever problems, questions interrogations or temptations attacked Jesus,  He returned to them with The Word.  Today my word is Jer. 15:20 "They will fight against you like an attacking army, but I will make you as secure as a fortified wall.  They will not conquer you, for I will protect and deliver you.  I, the Lord, have spoken."

What a word to start the day!  Whatever comes today, I will say be to me according to Your Word.  That's the words of Mary, the mother of Jesus, when she was told that she would deliver to the world Our Savior.  That is Faith.  May all who read this be Blessed today.---c
