Ruler of the Universe

'He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation  for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers—all things have been created through him and for him.' Colossians 1:15-16 (NRSV)

 Jesus is God the Son. Jesus is equal with God the Father. Jesus is God in human form. He is creator. He is creator of all things. He rules supreme. He is ruler over everything. The invisible becomes visible. The unseen becomes the seen. In God's Kingdom there are so many possibilities. Anything can happen. It's remarkable the things that our God can do. Some things are a mystery but through His Word He is making everything known.

Dear Father
Thank you for Your Word. Thank you for Your Son Jesus who is more than a mere image of You but He is You incarnate and bears the image of both heaven and earth, You eternal, Your first begotten, Emmanuel, Messiah, seed of Abraham, son of David, Kingdom revealed, Ruler over all kings of the earth, the brightness of the glory and character of You the Father.

Thank you for the Holy Spirit that is alive in me and is day by day changing me from glory to glory into the image of the glorified Christ. Though some can choose to ignore You, but only by reason of insanity can one choose to deny Your existence.

Christ is the head of the Church and we are His body. He is in full view and He is reconciling the whole fallen world to Himself. He is pleased to do it. He owns it all. He set the hope before us. In Him we find our Joy. We honor You this day with our prayers. We praise You for what You have done and for what You are doing.
In Jesus's name.
Amen.

Called Forth to Life

'When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last—  the Living One. I was dead and, see, I am alive forever and ever! I also hold the keys of death and hell .' Revelation 1:17-18 (EHV) Dear Father.  Because of You and who You are I do not fear. You are Divine. You are Eternal. You are God. You were here before the world began and will be here at the end. Thank You, Father, for sending Your Son Jesus Christ, the Living One, to die for me. I recognized that I was a sinner and I made Jesus Lord of my life. Though You suffered and died, I know that Jesus lives and that He is my life source. Without Him I am nothing. He has complete authority. He has the power over life and death. He controls not only when I die but where I will go after I die as well.You comfort me with Your Word.  Let me be forever grateful and obey Your Word and live my life for Him. Jesus, You alone hav

Sending Out Invitations to the Concert

'We are confident that God is able to orchestrate everything to work toward something good and beautiful when we love Him and accept His invitation to live according to His plan. ' Romans 8:28 (VOICE) One example of God's love can be seen in the book of Esther. Lessons from the Bible can reassure us of God's love for us and they show us that His ways are good and so much higher than our own. How powerful. In Chapter three, the evil ideas of Haman, to have all the Jews exterminated, had been decreed by the king, and the money set aside in an account for the diabolical deeds and the date was set on the calendar for the bloodshed! That part is so incredible, that one man was given that much power. Just imagine it if you were a Jew. The date for the destruction of your entire race was set and the preparations to follow through with it were being made. Thankfully, our God is greater. Our God is able. He is able to confuse the bad plans of men in power. O

To the 7th Degree

  ' Then Nebuchadnezzar was furious with Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, and his attitude toward them changed. He ordered the furnace heated seven times hotter than usual' Daniel 3:19 (NIV) To the leaders that are unprepared for the likes of young people full of passion. For the wicked rulers who demand men to bow a knee to them, and worship them like gods. To the world that has lost its way and punishes the faithful to the extreme, even death. We pray for thee. Let the world know that we worship no one but the One True God. Amen. Dear Father We pray for evil leaders that desire to turn their nation into evil. We lift up righteousness and righteous leaders, we lift You up. You are the One True God in whom we serve. You are the Holy God in whom we believe. You provide the God-fearing leaders that we need when we need them. We pray for those leaders. We pray for more people with courage to refuse to bow the knee to mere man. Even when we live in times when there seem
