HAPPY ASCENSION DAY

It’s been 40 days since the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ

Published

on

Glory to God! I trust you’re well and denying yourself, taking up your cross and following the Lord Jesus Christ!
Today is Ascension Day. We celebrate this day 40 days after the celebration of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is itself part of the paschal celebrations.
We know the Lord Jesus Christ ascended into heaven 40 days after His resurrection from the dead because of Acts 1:1-3, which states, ‘The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
UNTIL THE DAY IN WHICH HE WAS TAKEN UP, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, BEING SEEN OF THEM FORTY DAYS, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.’
The Lord Jesus Christ was with the disciples for forty days after His resurrection and then He was taken up through His glorious ascension into heaven.
Acts 1:9-11 says, ‘And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.’
Ascension Day not only reminds us of this momentous occasion which occurred in the past, but it also reminds us of another momentous occasion which will occur in the future, the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.
God’s holy angels comforted the disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ by telling them that the same Lord Jesus Christ they saw ascend into heaven will one day return in the same way.
What a glorious promise! We also know that when the Lord Jesus Christ returns, we shall see Him as He is and we shall also be changed to be like Him. Our vile bodies will be transformed to look like His glorious body. Our natural bodies will be changed to be like His spiritual body. Our earthly bodies will be converted to look like His heavenly body so that we might receive our inheritance of the kingdom of God.
1 Corinthians 15:50-57 says, ‘Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.’
We cannot inherit the kingdom of God in his condition. We must first be changed. Our mortal bodies must first be made immortal. This will happen at the first resurrection when the Lord Jesus Christ returns. When this happens, we’ll experience not only the resurrection but we’ll also experience His ascension by being caught up to meet with Him in the air.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 says, ‘But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.’
The Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t just want us to believe in Him but He wants us to follow His example, to walk in His footsteps. He wants us to experience His death, burial and resurrection, but also His ascension. Glory to God!
I wish you all a glorious Ascension Day full of hope and anticipation of the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.

GOD IS FAITHFUL TO HIS WORD

Published

on

What God has promised you in His Word He is able to perform. His Word is His covenant. When God speaks, He covenants.

God will never break His covenant or change what He has already declared concerning you.

God is not a man. He’s not fickle and unpredictable. Through His Word you can know exactly what He’ll do.

However, you have a role to play. You must exercise faith in His Word.

There are times when God requires that you obey a commandment for your faith to work.

Hebrews 11:8 says, ‘By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.’

Abraham would not have received what God promised him if he didn’t act on God’s Word. Faith without works is dead.

At other times, God wants you to say something.

2 Corinthians 4:13 says, ‘We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak.’

God gave us His Word for us to say it. God says something to us so that we may say the same thing as Him. When we say what God says, we get whatsoever we say.

So step out in faith today, and believe God’s Word. He has not changed. Whatever He said about you before, He’s still saying today.

He will never break His covenant nor alter the words of His lips.

Glory to God!

THE LORD IS NEAR. TIME TO REJOICE.

Published

on

For the people of the world, the return of the Lord Jesus Christ will be a dreadful day of the Lord. But for us, it will a glorious day of the Lord.

Luke 21:28 says, ‘And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.’ When we see all the signs around us, we’re not distressed. We rejoice because we know it’s time to look up for our redemption is near. The Lord Jesus Christ is coming back very soon. And when He arrives, He’ll set up His kingdom on the earth and we’ll rule and reign with Him forever.

Therefore, continue to live for Him, because behold He comes quickly and His reward is with Him. And He will reward us according to what our works deserve.

What you’re doing for the Lord is not in vain. No matter what you do, don’t be faint in well-doing because in due time you will reap eternal life.

Glory to God!

GREATER.

Published

Ye are of God. He’s talking about your identity. You are not of man, you are not of the devil, you are of God.

You’re born of God. And anyone born of God overcomes the world.

Ye are of God and have overcome them because greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.

Who is in you? The Lord Jesus Christ is in you.

In the Lord Jesus Christ resides the fulness of the Godhead in bodily form.

The Godhead is the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit. That’s the totality of God.

The Lord Jesus Christ is greater than Satan and He lives in you.

Christ is your life. He has brought eternal life to you. He has brought His life to you.

That’s why you’re of God. You’re no longer born of blood, human effort or a husband’s will. You’re born again, but this time, you’re born of God with the very life of God in you.

Through the life of Christ, you’re born again. You’re a child of God. You’re a son of God.

By virtue of your heritage, your origin, and your identity, the devil can’t overcome you. He’s inferior to you.

The life inside you is superior to the life in him. That’s why he can’t defeat you.

Because the One who dwells in you is greater than the one in the world, the one in the world cannot overcome you.

By virtue of the Lord Jesus Christ having overcome and destroyed Satan on the cross, you have also overcome him.

The victory of the Lord Jesus Christ has been given to you.

Thanks be unto God who always leads us in triumph in Christ. Glory to God!

That’s why what’s coming will not destroy you.

No matter what the kingdom of darkness coughs up, you have already overcome them.

No matter the amount of evil they dish out, you have already overcome them.

No matter how extreme their schemes, you have already overcome them.

Why? Because you are of God, therefore, greater is He that is in your than he that is in the world.

Glory to God!
