LOVE FOR MEN'S PRAISES

Seeking and desiring praise from men while neglecting to confess the coming of Christ because of earthly pleasures, positions, and treasures hinder a man from eternal Salvation but do not hide the Truth from converting more souls from bowing to the Most High. Everyone who truly desires to be saved does not need to be afraid of losing worldly possessions, places, or even their lives; rather, realize that Elohim is our Creator and Jesus is the only Way leading to the Father, for the vanities of earth can never save a man from condemnation and the fear of any negative or oppressive authority can only make one captive under a falsehood of omission to the Father of lies - distant from the Truth and dead to the Spirit who gives life everlasting to all who receive God's Salvation (Matt. 16:25-26, John 9:22 & 14:6).
So, let's embrace the Truth and never fail to confess Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of souls - declaring the testimony of our saving faith in His Name, while living for His glory - rising to bear fruits that remain for God's progressing Kingdom.

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Jesus Christ, for my faith in You who sought no praise in this life, has helped me overcome the fear of men and every oppressive authority opposing my calling and identity in Christ (John 5:41). Please, keep me courageous and determined as an Overcomer, to always declare the Truth in Love - confessing You as the Redeemer of my soul so that many who are ignorant to the knowledge of Your Word may be encouraged to receive it, empowered without fear of what people will say, in Your Holy Name,
Amen.

From John 12:42-43

BELIEVE IN THE LIGHT

Placing faith in the Light of God, Jesus Christ and the willingness to walk in Him as a Lamp to our feet, through the path of righteousness so we may not stumble, yet remain Divinely protected and eternally preserved as channels of the Light, assigned to bring God's Kingdom among those still blind and short on time to get to our Father (Ps. 119:105). So, as Christians, we should endeavor to walk in and through the Light who remains within and around us, being a guide to the world, protective shield, and the supernatural strength who keeps us from falling, empowering every Believer to overcome the kingdom of darkness and truly live (John 1:4, 11:9-10).
As we continuously walk in the Light of the LORD, revealing the only Way leading to the Father, we are favored with the blessed assurance of everlasting life in Heaven and Divine protection on Earth, keeping us supernaturally preserved and eternally fruitful for the growth of His advancing Kingdom; for our identity as channels of God's Light separates us from the forces of darkness and makes us attractive to those who are willing to trade in their shame, personally in need of Him for their eternal Salvation.

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, LORD, Ever-Glorious Father, for Your Light keeps me redeemed from darkness and all evil, to live as a channel of Your glorious works on Earth. Please, keep me gracefully shining in Your glorious presence as I live daily by Your Word, walking in the Spirit to reveal Your Love, as a citizen of Your Kingdom - a child of Light,
Amen.

From John 12:35-36

DRAWN TO CHRIST

The realization of God's Love through the knowledge of His Word given to all the World draws everyone to Christ in repentance, confessing Him as our Lord and the Savior of our souls - we Believers now declaring Him as the Author and Finisher of our faith (John 8:28, Heb. 2:9 & 12:2). Jesus' victory on the cross over sin, brings redemption to all who look at the way this man gave His life in obedience and in turn will faithfully receive Whom is uniting every Christian as a member of His Body, lifted by the Father and healed, for His glory and praise (Ps. 133, John 3:14-16).
So, as Christ's ambassadors and members of His Body, the Church of whom the Son of God remains the eternal Head, we should uphold our Calling, revealing our identity as we go spreading the Good News of Salvation so the hearts of all people may be drawn to the perfect lamb who became cursed hanging on a tree to be with us and fall on their knees in repentance with minds set to receive the Gospel of Truth and live by it to remain in the comfort of His redeeming grace and resurrection power - dwelling in the presence of the LORD forever as victorious Heirs of the Father in Christ Jesus.

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, for I am lifted high above the reach of the wicked one by Christ Jesus, Your Son, and my soul's Salvation. Please, keep me motivated and maintained, mighty both physically and spiritually, to take the Good News of Your redeeming Grace to all lacking the knowledge of Salvation so that more souls who are dead to the Spirit may be resurrected and drawn to You in Christ Jesus,
Amen.

From John 12:32

ESSENCE OF GOD'S VOICE

The sole essence of God's voice declaring His Word made visible by the manifestation of His awesome wonders, is to bolster the faith of all who are weak and revive many who are dead to the Spirit, as they acknowledge Him by faith in Christ Jesus, the Savior of the World. The Voice of the LORD, written in the Bible and understood in the Spirit as His Word made flesh, is powerful to redeem all who faithfully receive Him, proclaim judgment to oppressors of the Righteous in Christ Jesus, and open the eyes of all who are blind to the Truth, so that they may turn from darkness to Light and from the powers of satan to God, receiving forgiveness of sins which separate, also gifted with an eternal inheritance as Heirs of the Father in Heaven (John 1:14, Acts 26:18).
Moreover, by the Word of the LORD, declared as the Voice of the Spirit affirmed in hearts and the words of our mouths, we are graced with the Divine authority to overcome anything - trampling upon every force and pushing aside any power trying to hurt us - for with our eyes, we as Sons and Daughters of God will continue to see the downfall of the wicked, while; at the same time, "our names are written in Heaven (Luke 10:18-20)."

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Ever-Loving Father, for the revelation of Your Word and Spirit in me, heard as the Voice of Salvation and seen as the manifestation of Your awesome wonders in my life. Please, keep me strengthened, ever closer as I continuously listen to and declare Your Word - wrestling against the forces of darkness and casting down the power of wickedness - so that I may ultimately triumph due to the victory won by Christ Jesus, Your Son;
Amen.

From John 12:30-31

ALWAYS EXALTING HIM

Being channels of God's mighty works, courageously declaring His Word, and revealing His Love to all without discrimination, His Name will forever be glorified in the lives of Believers of Jesus, even as we remain faithfully committed to the advancement of His marvelous Kingdom. The LORD's presence in and around His disciples makes us honored among men, identifying us as vessels ministering in His Holy Spirit so that the humble may hear and again glorify His Name (Matt. 17:5).

Moreover, by living a life of self-sacrifice, solely for the LORD - to honor and glorify Him while we as Christians endlessly bear fruits that remain, for His advancing Kingdom - we should always realize God Himself has exalted His Name, in a unique Way - through His chosen treasure (Ps. 135:4-6). Now that we live as ambassadors of Heaven and Heirs of the Father on Earth, we are free to minister in His Name, empowered with the Holy Spirit as we continuously share the knowledge of Him through His everlasting Word, reaching out to all ignorant of the Truth with God's Salvation whom we follow. With this, we remain elevated in Jesus Christ, whose Name we are identified and called by, which eternally remains above every other name (Phil. 2:9-11).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, Thank You, LORD, YHWH, for glorifying Your Name, Your Salvation, in my life, making me an Overcomer - triumphing over the work of satan and forces of wickedness, to live in Your Love as a channel of Your Light to the World. Please, keep me strengthened by Your Word and comforted with Your Spirit so that Your Majestic Name will forever remain glorified in my life, for the world to see the King of Kings,

Amen.

From John 12:28-29

OVERCOMING CHALLENGES

It's natural to be troubled as a Son of Man when faced with challenges, yet to overcome every hurdle in our way, we should always endeavor to place our life on the altar and our plight as a supplication before the LORD, realizing that He is the only one who truly saves, for He understands our situation and hears the cry of Believers - delivering us from all affliction and shame endured, for His Name's sake (Ps. 34:15 & 19). Our Heavenly Father's presence in our lives keeps us protected from falling without being able to get up, being our glory and the One who lifts our head, the source of our strength, Shepherd and Shield who defends and comforts us as we faithfully work by His righteousness alone, to please Him (Prov. 24:16, Ps. 3:3, 23:1-2 & 27:1).
Moreover, we should realize that trials and temptations refine a man to a state of purity for greater glory beyond the moment of anguish. So do not let your heart be troubled in tribulation; rather be watchful, always pray as the Spirit also prays in our weakness, and the will of our Heavenly Father will remain established in our lives, revealing our Divine identity as Sons and Daughters of God on Earth for a time such as this (Job 23:10, Matt. 26:38-39, John 14:1, Eph. 6:18)

PRAYER: Thank You, Heavenly Father, for making me an Overcomer in Christ Jesus, Your Son and the everlasting Word. Please, keep me eternally preserved and sustained, compassionate as I walk through every challenge that comes my way, so that I may always come out victoriously refined in Your glory and strength, according to your will, living to the fulfillment of Your Word in Jesus,
Amen.

From John 12:27

HONOR ENSUES SERVICE

Serving God in the Way of Christ Jesus, with all our strength and might, in Truth and in the Spirit, ensures the Divine reward of eternal life, graced with the honor of being Heirs of the Father in Heaven and one with the most highly esteemed Christ. This close relationship is the desire of our loving Messiah which will surely be fulfilled as He is the Word of God who never fails; yet, what He does remains established forever, so that we may behold His glory as triumphant vessels of honor deserving of the Father's pride as we follow humbly after Christ, putting others above ourselves, and venerating Him through our every thought, attitude and action (Is. 55:11, John 17:24, Phil. 2:1-3).
Moreover, to faithfully serve the LORD, we need to focus on HIs example to function with a life of self-sacrifice, overcoming and denying every desire other than to attend to all He values, lingering as distractions from our Christ's Calling, so that we may remain Divinely strengthened in the Spirit to carry the cross of Salvation to the finish-line, bearing more fruits that stay thriving for God's growing Kingdom, as fruitful branches in the True Vine, worthy of honor by the Vine Dresser (Matt. 16:24, John 15:4-5).

PRAYER: Thank You, Heavenly Father, for granting me the knowledge of Your Word which opens my eyes to the Truth and keeps me well equipped in the Spirit to carry the cross and follow You, denying every distraction opposing my Calling, on the Way. Please, continue to guide me as a lamp to my feet and a light to my path so that I may walk to the finish line and remain deserving of the honor of being a vessel championed with Christ Jesus, Your Son;
Amen.
