11/30/19 The Highest Office

Do you realize that as a man, you have been given the highest office in the most important institution Father God has ordained? God created the family unit to produce and nurture every person who will eventually hold every office in every land in the world. Because of that, there is no bigger honor you can pay Him than to dedicate your family to His service. You are responsible to Him for the atmosphere you have created in your home to help your family become all they can be in Christ.

In a world set on destroying the family and minimizing the importance of the husband and father roles, you can overcome the enemy's plan. In Christ, you have been given every tool you will need to fulfill your office with power and authority against any scheme planned against you and your wife and children.

Today is the day for you to gain a new perspective of who you are in Christ, and what role you have been given by God. It's time to realize the importance of your life and the impact it has in God's economy. Shake off the mundane attitude the world has fostered, and embrace the wonder of what our Father has done. Become a vessel that hears His heart for your family, and is willing to do whatever it takes to have them become the light of Christ in a dark world.

Let's talk more!

11/30/19 Invited

        "I spoke and the worlds were formed. By My will, everything remains in existence. I am the Righteous Judge. I am Almighty God. There is no other. With everything that I Am, with everything that I have done, because of what Jesus has done for you, I invite you to such intimacy that you may call Me ABBA. You may come as close to Me as you desire. In fact, I often wait for you."

Gen. 1:31 NIV

God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.

Psalm 46:10 NIV

"Be still, and know that I am God..."

Psalm 111:2 NIV

Great are the works of the Lord; they are pondered by all who delight in them.

Psalm 119:89 NIV

Your word, O Lord, is eternal; it stands firm in the heavens.

Psalm 119:160 NIV

All your words are true; all your righteous laws are eternal.

John 14:13-14 AMP

13) And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM], so that the Father may be glorified and extolled in (through) the Son.

14) [Yes] I will grant [I Myself will do for you] whatever you shall ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM].

Ephesians 1:17-19a NIV

17) I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so that you may know Him better.

18) I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints

19a) and his incomparably great power for us who believe...

Heb. 4:16 NIV

Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

 

Our relationship with God through Jesus is, above and beyond anything else, a wondrous love story between an omnipotent Father God and His precious children. It is the foundation of all of history, the focal point of all past and future generations; and the promise that we have for eternal well-being. No other biography in all of time is packed with more adventure, intrigue, danger, excitement, and moment-by-moment thrills.

If you were to take all of the imaginations of mankind, all of the wealth, knowledge, and power of all of the men and women that have ever lived and combine them, multiplied by one million to the millionth power, it would not compare to the wonder of one moment of God in His ordinary (for Him) daily activities and interactions with us. With all that our Father God is and has and has done, His heart has favor toward the opportunity He created for those He formed from the ground of the earth to be in association with Him.

This love association is an unparalleled drama that has overwhelmed the mind of the scholar, disgusted the heart of the bigot, softened the heart of the needy, and filled to overflowing the heart of the child. In all of the wonder that is our God, the most amazing aspect, which has baffled mankind throughout his time in existence, is the well-put phrase in the Book of Psalms, "Who is man that you are mindful of him?"

To grasp the concept that our Father God is the originator of all life is more than enough for most scholars; but to understand that He loves us deeper than we could ever know and that His focus is on our existence for this time in creation is the most difficult truth to understand. It is beyond our scope of thinking. It must be received by the faith in your heart that He really means what He says, if you are ever to grow closer to Him.

How can I ever thank You, Lord?

11/28/19 Given Chances

        "Do you realize how much I cherish those around you? I love them as much as I love you. Some are already Mine. Others are being given chances to see Jesus in action through you. Make sure that you love them. Make sure that you become aware of their needs and give those needs as much credence as you give your own.

        "Devote your life to them as Jesus did. They are at the center of My heart just as you are. Hold them close for Me. Show them My love. Show them Who Jesus is by showing them who you have become because of Him."

1 Cor. 11:1 NIV

Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

2 Cor. 5:20a NIV

We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us.

I John 3:16-18 AMP

16) By this we come to know (progressively to recognize, to perceive, to understand) the [essential] love: that He laid down His [own] life for us; and we ought to lay [our] lives down for [those who are our] brothers [in Him].

17) But if anyone has this world's goods (resources for sustaining life) and sees his brother and fellow believer in need, yet closes his heart of compassion against him, how can the love of God live and remain in him?

18) Little children, let us not love [merely] in theory or in speech but in deed and in truth (in practice and in sincerity).

 

Some people, who come into your life, you will be able to embrace. Others, you won't. Some will embrace you. Others will cheat you. Most will tolerate who you are. A few will love you. All those who come into your life are brought to you by the Lord, so that they can see who Jesus is, process what they see; and decide if they want to know more about Him. How well are you representing Him to your world?

Help me, Lord,

Jim Corbett

11/28/19 The Unaware Plague

As I do research for our books and other ministry outreaches, I am pretty astounded by how unaware most people are of the war they are in. They don't see overwhelming business demands as a tool of the enemy to nullify their real effectiveness. They don't understand that hours before the television set help erode family unity. Cell phones are divisional devices used to separate families.

Take a look around. Watch how the enemy of everything that God desires is steadily at work to distract, divide, and destroy everything God holds dear in the family unit. He will use anything he can, any way he can, to take the family members' eyes off of the important and place them on the urgent or the entertaining.

If you think that I'm being a little melodramatic, do this experiment. Pick any device - cell phone, television, business pressure, school, or social engagements and compare the time consumed by them with the time a family spends together communicating and investing in each other. See how long most families spend quality time together before each member runs off to do something more important. I think you will be amazed at how few people consider their family more important than whatever personal god they serve first. What do you see in your family?

Let's talk more!
