Rest Ahead.

                                                                           Rest Ahead.   Rest is “Just A Prayer Away”. Come to Me and “I Will Give You Rest”all of you who work so hard beneath a heavy yoke.   Wear my yoke-for it fits perfectly-and let Me teach you; for I am gentle and humble, “And You Shall Find Rest For Your Souls”; for I give only light burdens.   (Matthew 11:28-29) Are You Tired of Being Tired and Tired of Worrying? Our Daily Nugget is Jesus telling us through Matthew that “if we labor and if we are heaven ladened”, that we can come to Him with theses issues and that He Will Give Us “Rest From Them”.   Think about a long road trip and you’re tired and sleepy and you start looking for the sign that says “Rest Area Ahead” Seven Miles Ahead.   Jesus doesn’t li...

The Beautiful Wife.

                                                                      The Beautiful Wife. Is Salvation for an Unbelieving Husband. Wives, in the same way submit yourselves to your own husband so that, if any of them do not believe the word, they may be won over without words by the “behavior of their wives”, when they see the “purity and reverence” of your lives.   “Your Beauty” should not come from outward adornment, such as the elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes.   Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the “unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit”, “Which Is Of Great Worth in God’s Sight”.   For this is the way holy women of the past who put their hope in God used to adorn themselves.   They submitted themselves to their own husbands, like Sarah, ...

Hard Truths.

                                                                           Hard Truths. We must Die to Self, before we can Embrace Hard Truths! I am the Bread of Life.   Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, yet they died.   But here is the bread that comes down from heaven, which anyone may eat and not die.   I am the living bread that came down from heaven.   Whoever eats “this bread” will live forever.   This bread is my flesh, “which I will give for the life of the world”.   Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves.   “How Can This Man Give Us His Flesh To Eat”?   (John 6:48-52) Few Great Things Have Been Done Within the Confines of the Accepted Norm. God’s Word , the Bible, is Truth.   What Are “Hard Truths”? Hard Truths - The c...

The Lord Laughed.

                                                                       The Lord Laughed. The Lord Laughs, with Love, at our Wicked Plans. Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong.   (Psalms 37:1) The Wicked plot against the Righteous and smash their teeth at them; “But The Lord Laughs” at the wicked, for He knows their day is coming.   (Psalms 37:12-13) When the Lord Laughs at our Wicked Plans, Wrath Follows Shortly.   Our Daily Nugget is letting us know “How to Respond” to wicked and evil people, and it lets us know “what” wicked and evil people will do, He knows the Destiny of the Wicked and Evil.   Therefore, The Lord Laughs at wicked and evil people, and so should we.   We know the destiny of the wicked and evil also, therefore, laugh. Do Not Be...

Sending Up Your Timber.

                                                                Sending Up Your Timber. Acts of Kindness and Love, Are Sending Up Your Timber. Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal.   But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.   “For where your treasure is, there your heart (mind) will be also.   (Matthew 6:19-21) Are you Sending Up Your Timber or Using all of your Timber for you? Sending Up Your Timber is a term some Christians of old equated with “Doing Acts of Kindness and Giving to others in Need”, the timber is for the building of our home in heaven.   The Timber that we Send Up, we can not use for self. Our Daily Nugget Chapter starts ...

The Abundant Life.

                                                                       The Abundant Life. To Have Everything, When You Have Nothing. The thief (Satan) does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.   I have come that “they may have life”, and that “they may have it more abundantly”.   (John 10:10) The “Abundant Life” Begins Between Our Ears and Unfolds in Our Living. Our Daily Nugget is giving us “The Purpose” of Light and Darkness; one of these two will always be our purpose.   Jesus said, “if you are not for me you are against me”.   Jesus also said, “if you are Luke warm, “light nor dark”, that He will Spit You Out Of His Mouth.   We Cannot Love both, The Word and The World.   God is not mocked! The Abundant Life - Refers to a “spiritual state of fulfillment, peace...

Abstain.

                                                                                            Abstain. The “Fruit and Victory” in Abstaining. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.   Quench not the Spirit.   Despise not prophesying.   “Prove All Things”; “Hold Fast That Which is Good”.   “Abstain From All Evil”.    (1 Thessalonians 5:18-22) To Abstain Leads to Victory, to Yield Leads to Defeat. In this Daily Nugget Paul is telling us to “Give Thanks in Everything”; not because everything is good, but all things works together for the good of those who “Abstain From Evil”.   Paul is telling us to “Test or Prove All Things”.   Anything tha...
