Resurrection.

                                                                            Resurrection. He Got Up! Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days”.   (John 2:19) Jesus said to her, “I am the Resurrection and the Life”.   The one who “Believes” in Me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by “Believing” in Me will never die.   Do you “Believe” this?   (John 11:25-26) Jesus Got Up, therefore, “We Can Get Up” from our “Fallen State”! Our Daily Nugget is All About “Salvation”. The Salvation that Jesus has made available is a “Three Stage Process”. We “Have Been Saved” from the “Penalty of sin”; we are “Being Saved” from the “Power of sin”; we “Shall Be” saved from the “Presence of sin”.   Now, we are living in the Second Stage of ...

After Amen.

                                                                             After Amen. Consider It Already Done. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write: These things saith the “Amen”, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God.   (Revelation 3:14) The Amen signifies that Jesus is the firm, final, and true word of God.   Our Daily Nugget is addressed to the church of Laodicea, which was know for its “spiritual complacency and material wealth” “which they mistook for spiritual maturity”.   The Amen signifies that Jesus is the firm, final, and true word of God.   Much like the United States, especially today.   Spiritual Complacency leads to death. The Fruit of Complacency and the Love of Money. Being a “Good Steward Has Very Lit...

A Faithless and Perverse Generation.

  A Faithless and Perverse Generation. Exercise Your Faith or Lose Your Faith; your Choice. And Jesus said unto them, “Because of Your Unbelief”; for verily (Truly) I say to you, “If ye have Faith as a Grain of Mustard Seed”, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; “And It Shall Remove”; and “Nothing Shall Be Impossible Unto You”.   (Matthew 17:20) They could not drive out the demon, due to Unexercised Faith. Nothing is Impossible to us, “If We Exercise our Measure of Faith”. Our Daily Nugget symbolizes that “A Tiny Amount of Genuine Faith”, “Placed In God” (Exercised) possesses immense power to overcome massive obstacles (move mountains, physical and spiritual).   Jesus used this metaphor to teach, it’s the Quality of Faith.   Faith -   “Acting” as “Active Trust in God’s Character and Promises” rather than mere intellectual Belief. Perverse - A “willful, deliberate” turning away from God’s Truth (The Bible), righteousness, or established ...

Winter.

                                                                                Winter. Preparation for the Spring. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life.   The one who “Believes” in Me will live, “even though they die”; and whoever lives by Believing in Me will never die.   Do you Believe this?   (John 11:25-26) We Can Live, But, “Only After We Believe and Die”. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “Belief in Jesus” is like the Spring”; for the heart/mind that has experienced or is experiencing the “Winter of Life”.   I heard a woman say, concerning planting seeds, that “Winter, the Cold, the Dark, the Rain and Snow”, “Prepares the Ground for the Spring Planting Time”.   Spring comes, after winter. Belief in Jesus is Life for the Dead Heart/Min...

Mature.

                                                                                 Mature. A Warning Against Falling Away. In fact, though “by this time” you “ought to be teachers”, you need someone to teach you the “Elementary Truths of God’s Word” “All Over Again”.   “You need milk, not solid food”. Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the “Teaching About Righteousness”.   But solid food is for the “Mature”, “Who By Constant Use” have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.   (Hebrews 5:12-14) Our Daily Nugget is a Warning Against Falling Away From Obedience to the Bible. It is making it plain in that, “We Chose” to “Mature or to Remain an Infant”, by “Constant Use” of the Teachings of Righteousness or Constants Acts of Doing ...

Leaders.

                                                                                Leaders. Boss Leader or Servant Leader? Jesus said to them, “You Will Indeed Drink From My Cup”, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant.   These places belong to those whom they have been prepared by my Father.   When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers.   Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles ‘lord it over them”.   “Not so with you”.   Instead, whoever wants to become great among you “Must Be Your Servant”, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave-“Just As The Son of Man Did Not Come to Be Served”, “But To Serve”, and to “give his life as a ransom for many”.   (Matthew 20:23-28) Boss Lea...

Passing Through Time.

                                                                 Passing Through Time. Nothing Wrong with being Another Day Old. Show me, Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is.  (Psalms 39:4-5) For we are strangers and sojourners before You, just as all our fathers were.  Our days on earth are like a shadow, and there is no hope.  (1 Chronicles 29:15) And sware by Him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven,, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things which are therein, that there shall be “time” no Longer.  (Revelation 10:6)  God Created Time and God Shall Bring Time to an End. The Bible says, Wise people think about death; fools think about being happy. Our Daily Nugget is letting us know that “Time Waits For No ...
