Every Day is a Good Day |
The Bible starts with God
creating everything. That means us. Everything God created, He said was very
good, that includes us. Everything God created is good that means every day is
very good. He ends His book by giving us the grace of the Lord Jesus. This is
the grace that Jesus was to the full. This is the grace that the Bible tells us
in Acts 4:33-34 “With great power the apostles continued to testify to the
resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And God’s grace was so powerfully at work in
them all 34 that there were no needy persons among them. For from time to time
those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales.”
Accept God’s lovely powerful grace and live in victory, every minute.
Living in the world the
challenge is all around us. The world drags the Men in Ministry down to the
world standards. The world is setting the standard for Christian Men. Christian
men are letting the world measure success and failure. John1:12: “Yet to all
who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to be
children of God.” We are children of the living God. Our destiny is to be in
the Kingdom of God. I need to tell myself to live every day as a child of the
King!
We live in the world but are
not of the world. The Christian is an ambassador for Jesus in the world. An
ambassador in a country does not become a citizen of that country. The
ambassador, is in a foreign country, to represent the home country and deliver
the messages from the leadership of the home country. Men in Ministry live as
the Ambassador of the King, in a strange and hostile land.
The message is clear.
- God created us
- We are exceptional
- We are children of the King
- We are destined to live in the Kingdom forever
- We live in the victory of Jesus the risen Christ who sits at the right hand of the Father
- God created every day so every day is good
- Pray and grab on to the grace that God has made available
- We have the power
- The victory has been won!
- Take the world into the domain of the Kingdom: “Thy Kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
“You desire but do not have,
so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and
fight. You do not have because you do not ask God” James 4:2.
