QUOTE FROM THE POST: HAVE YOU SANCTIFIED YOUR DRESS TO MEET THE GROOM ON THE BIG DAY?



³ Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except he be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3📖🙏
14 Strive to live at peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
Hebrews 12:14📖🙏


 



"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will be no more death, nor mourning, nor outcry, nor pain; for the former things have passed away." (Revelation 21:4)

 



God himself was the one who uttered the first prophecy regarding the Messiah, the Lord Jesus, and the redemption of man from his sins;
“And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; she will bruise your head, and you will bruise her heel.”
  (Genesis 3:15)
The words of Genesis 3:15, as we have seen, are spoken by God himself to the serpent, which was actually the transfigured Satan himself (Rev 20:2).
In Genesis 3:15 we have God's sentence on Satan, because he led the couple into sin.
“And I (God) will put enmity between you (Satan) and the woman (human race),”
Here God states that there would be permanent enmity between Satan and the woman, who in this case represents the human being.
In other words, he is clearly stating that Satan is the enemy of human beings, as the meaning of the name Satan already states (Satan means adversary/enemy, see 1 Peter 5:8)
“And between your seed (descendant of Satan) and his seed (descendant of the woman);”
God is repeating what he said in the previous section, taking this statement further.
An enmity would be established between Satan and his subjects, and between one who would be the seed of the woman, that is, who would come from her; refers directly to the Lord Jesus, and consequently to the Christians who form his church.
Why is the “seed” of the woman
  (or her descendant),
in Genesis 3 15, it is Jesus!
Furthermore, even in Genesis 3:15, God says that a descendant of the woman would bruise the head of the serpent, that is, the devil.
Now, the Lord Jesus is the one who destroyed Satan's power over the lives of those who receive him
  (Luke 10:18-19; John 1:12; 1 John 5:18), when he died on the cross and rose from the dead.
What does “she will bruise your head, and you will bruise her heel” mean?
“she (the seed of the woman, that is, her descendant, Jesus) will bruise your (Satan’s) head.”
As we have seen, the Lord himself defeated Satan through his death on the cross and his resurrection (Rom 8:3; 1 Cor 15:20-22; Heb 2:14).
“and you (Satan) will bruise his (Jesus') heel” is the conclusion of God's sentence there in Genesis 3 15. The pronoun “him” refers to a specific person.
The wound on the heel refers to the crucifixion of Christ, as it was necessary for Jesus to be made an offering for sin (Heb 10:10; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 John 2:2), but this crucifixion is Compared to the defeat that Satan suffered, in addition to the resurrection and glory that Christ received, it is just a wound in the heel (Phil 2:7-11; Heb 12:2).
Note that the heel wound is just a wound, but the head wound symbolizes a complete defeat, which Satan suffered (Rev 12:10; 20:10).
Genesis 3 15 - the serpent's head is wounded by the woman's descendant (seed), Jesus defeats Satan on the cross with his resurrection
The “head” represents power, in this case the Lord Jesus destroyed the power of Satan when he died on the cross and was resurrected.
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested:
So that he could destroy the works of the devil. (1 John 3:8)."

QUANTO VALE A SUA VIDA?
Jesus perguntou:
o que dará o homem em troca da sua alma?
O que adianta ao homem ganhar o mundo inteiro e perder a sua alma?
Muitos vendem a alma por dinheiro.
Há pessoas que se casam e se divorciam por causa de dinheiro.
Há pessoas que corrompem e são corrompidas por causa de dinheiro.
Há pessoas que matam e morrem por causa de dinheiro.
Mas o dinheiro não pode lhe dar segurança nem felicidade.
Possuir apenas dinheiro é consumada pobreza.
A vida de um homem não consiste na abundância de bens que ele possui.
O reino de Deus é uma pérola de grande valor.
Receber a salvação pela graça mediante a fé é a maior de todas as riquezas.
Para nos comprar para Deus, Jesus pagou o maior de todos os preços.
ELE nos redimiu pelo seu sangue!*

If you recognize that you are a sinner and repent of your sins, you must make this confession before witnesses: the church. Therefore, the question is asked in services and the person needs to position themselves in the physical world and give a message in the spiritual world!




QUOTE FROM THE POST: I ACCEPT JESUS AS SAVIOR

ROMANS 10:9 To wit: If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.





A Cry for Help.


  There are moments in life when we experience extraordinary experiences from the Lord and even though we live these experiences, we can still get distracted, we begin to pay attention to the storms of life, the strong wind and with that we begin to sink into the same water we were treading in. about it, but the good news is that if you find yourself in a situation where you are drowning, cry out for help and the Lord will stretch out his hands to lift you up and make you walk on the water.
Then Peter got out of the boat, walked on the water and went towards Jesus. But when he noticed the wind, he became afraid and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” (MATTHEW 14:28-30)
Pedro's story brings us to the reflection that every time we start to sink it is because we are distracted by the storm, by the strong winds of life, generally associated with financial difficulties, health difficulties, family difficulties, we can also join in the passions , the shine of the things of this world, the excessive work that takes so much away from your quality of life and also little by little takes you away from the presence of God, religious abuse, among others.
All of this has been leading people to sink, but we must remember that more important than the strong wind and even when we begin to sink is the cry for help that we make, when we recognize that without God it is not possible for us to remain on the water. .


 


⁹ And you, sirs, do the same towards them, leaving threats aside, knowing also that their Lord and yours is in heaven, and that with him there is no respect of persons.
¹⁰ Furthermore, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his power.
¹¹ Put on the full armor of God, so that you can stand firm against the wiles of the devil.
¹² For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in the heavenly places.
Ephesians 6:9-12
No matter the situation you are experiencing, understand that the Enemy will act first in your mind, he will try to steal your peace and shake your faith... Allow yourself to put on the armor of God and trust, in Christ Jesus we are more than winners
Amen, amen 🙌

1 How happy is that
who does not follow the advice of the wicked,
does not imitate the conduct of sinners,
Nor does he sit in the seat of mockers!
2 On the contrary, your satisfaction
It is in the law of the Lord,
and on this law he meditates day and night.
3 It's like a planted tree
at the edge of running waters:
Bears fruit at the right time
and its leaves do not wither.
Everything he does prospers!
Psalms 1:1-3📖🙏


 


²⁰ Behold, I stand at the door, and knock; If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will enter his house and eat with him, and he with me.

Revelation 3:20📖🙏


 


Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Revelation 2:10

Revelation 3
11 Behold, I come quickly; guard what you have, so that no one takes your crown.

QUOTE FROM THE POST: FLEEING FROM TEMPTATION IS NOT A SIGN OF WEAKNESS, BUT WISDOM.


 POTIPHAR'S WIFE TAKEN OSSE BY HIS CLOTHES AND SAYS, LYING WITH ME; HOWEVER, HE LEFT THE CLOTHES IN HER HANDS, LEFT, FLEEING OUTSIDE. GENESIS 39:12


ADVICE TO CHRISTIAN WOMEN WHO ARE FANS OF WORLDLY CELEBRITIES
When a woman calls herself a Christian, it is assumed that she believes and strives to live according to biblical standards, but you cannot hide your admiration for people who follow God's precepts with their way of living.
There is a very big contradiction in the Christian world today. Few young believers follow the examples of pious women, women of the caliber of Elisabeth Elliot, Ruth Graham, Amy Carmichael, Lilias Trotter and so many others whose lives were examples of renunciation of the world and dedication to the Lord. What we see are Christian women who follow social media and admire personalities without content, worldly and who go against everything the Bible preaches.
Women who live promiscuous lives, who decide to procreate while single, who even prefer to choose their partner from a donor bank instead of having a husband and then having children, and who make this child an object of display on social media. Women whose reason for living is to be fashionable (worldly!), live the frivolities of life, change men like they change clothes and get involved with drugs and other illicit things. It's no surprise that so many so-called Christian girls are increasingly similar to the celebrities they admire so much!
Woman! You were called to make a difference on this earth. What example can these no-strings-attached women give you? Read Bible. Obey the Lord. Learn from women of God. Imitate godly women. Have wisdom.

As biblical prophecy predicted.

Matthew 24:7 "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.."

Matthew 24:10-12 "And then many will be offended, and will betray one another, and will hate one another. And many false prophets will arise, and will deceive many. And because iniquity will abound, the love of many will cool down."

2 Timothy 3:1-13 "This also knows that in the last days perilous times will come. For men will be lovers of themselves, covetous, shakers, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, profane, without natural affection, breaking truces , false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of the good, traitors, intimidators, enthusiasts, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; having a form of godliness, but denying the power: of such deviance."

Luke 21:28 "And when these things begin to happen, look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draws near."

ONLY JESUS ​​SAVES

 


¹² Now if it is preached that Christ rose from the dead, how come some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

¹³ And if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been resurrected.

¹⁴ And if Christ has not been resurrected, then our preaching is in vain, and your faith is also in vain.

¹⁵ And so we are also considered as false witnesses of God, because we testify of God, who raised Christ, but whom he did not raise, if, in truth, the dead do not rise.

¹⁶ For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised.

¹⁷ And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain, and you still remain in your sins.

¹⁸ And also those who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost.

¹⁹ If we hope in Christ only in this life, we are of all men most miserable.

²⁰ But indeed Christ was raised from the dead, and became the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

²¹ For just as death came through a man, so also the resurrection of the dead came through a man.

²² For as all die in Adam, so all will be made alive in Christ.

²³ But each one in his order: Christ the firstfruits, then those who belong to Christ at his coming.

²⁴ Then the end will come, when he has handed over the kingdom to God, to the Father, and when he has annihilated the entire empire, and all power and strength.

²⁵ For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.

²⁶ Now, the last enemy that will be annihilated is death.

²⁷ For he put all things under his feet. But when he says that all things are subject to him, it is clear that he who subjected all things to him is excepted.

²⁸ And when all things are subject to him, then the Son himself will also subject himself to him who subjected all things to him, so that God may be all in all.

²⁹ Otherwise, what will those who are baptized for the dead do if the dead do not rise at all? Why then are they baptized for the dead?

³⁰ Why are we also in danger all the time?

³¹ I protest that I die every day, glorying in you, brothers, through Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:12-31

🚨

⚠️Every human being born is under sin! Therefore considered spiritually dead! You need an encounter with Jesus at some point in your life!
At the opportune moment, by understanding your condition as a sinner, having knowledge of the Holy Scriptures and realizing the need to repent of your sins... you can be forgiven by the blood of Jesus and receive Him into your heart as the only and sufficient savior through redemptive work of the cross!!!
Do not remain under wrath, be forgiven in Christ Jesus!👇
📌
¹ And he quickened you, when you were dead in trespasses and sins,
² When you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, according to the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience;
³ Among whom we also all formerly walked in the desires of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and we were by nature children of wrath, like others also.
⁴ But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love with which he loved us,
⁵ Even though we were dead in our trespasses, he made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),
⁶ And he raised us up together with him and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus;
⁷ To show in the ages to come the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
⁸ For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this does not come from you, it is a gift from God.
⁹ It does not come from works, so that no one can boast;
¹⁰ For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
¹¹ Therefore remember that you were once Gentiles in the flesh, and are called uncircumcision by those who in the flesh are called circumcision made by hands;
¹² That at that time you were without Christ, separated from the community of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.
¹³ But now in Christ Jesus you who were once far off have come near through the blood of Christ.
¹⁴ For he is our peace, who made both people one; and, tearing down the wall of separation that was in the middle,
¹⁵ In his flesh he dissolved the enmity, that is, the law of commandments, which consisted of ordinances, to create in himself one new man of the two, making peace,
¹⁶ And through the cross reconcile both with God in one body, putting to death their enmities with it.
¹⁷ And coming, he preached peace, to you who were far off, and to those who were near;
¹⁸ Because through him we both have access to the Father in the same Spirit.
¹⁹ So that you are no longer foreigners, nor foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the family of God;
²⁰ Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, of which Jesus Christ is the main

For those who, like me, have lost a loved one, we have this hope🕊

1 Thessalonians 4:13-17

13 Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who are asleep, so that you do not grieve like others who have no hope.

14 If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, we also believe that God will bring back, through Jesus and with him, those who slept in him.

15 We say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will certainly not precede those who are asleep.

16 For when the command has been given, with the voice of the archangel and the sound of the trumpet of God, the Lord himself will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

17 Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

Unpopular truth: Halloween is a satanic holiday that glorifies everything that satan loves and your "good intentions" won't change that! I get it, I used to love Halloween too before I had eyes to see. It would always bring back good memories and I loved carving Jack o lanterns but it gets to a point when you become a follower of Christ that you realize how wicked Halloween is and won't want to touch it anymore! You can try and make up all the excuses you want but it won't change the fact the if you celebrate Halloween, you're choosing darkness over the light. You can't walk with God while still holding hands with the devil.
