Sin has a tight grip on the world but Jesus is the king of creation!

11/26/2018

The Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The Lord is clothed, He has girded Himself with strength. Surely the world is established, so that it cannot be moved. Your throne is established from of old, You are from everlasting. Psalm 93 NKJV

This psalm declares the power and majesty of God and anticipates the millennial reign of Messiah!

Sin is blossoming upon the earth. Soon it will be in full bloom. The God of majesty and glory has not stepped down from His throne. His hand of authority has not been withdrawn. He will never leave us to fend for ourselves!

Jesus is covered in majesty and glory. His power is immeasurable. He keeps the earth sun and moon in their places. He knows no beginning. He will have no end. He is, was, and will always be The One True and Living God!

The floods have lifted up, O Lord, The floods have lifted up their voice; The floods lift up their waves. The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, Than the mighty waves of the sea. V2-3

My life has been flooded with sin pain and heartache. Maybe yours has as well. There are times when the tidal waves of trials and hardship are more than I can endure. They roll in one after the other with no end in sight.

Sometimes I feel like the waters of pain and heartache will overtake me and I will drown beneath them. I do not. God is mightier than trials and heartache. His grace is greater than sin and pain. His love is stronger than the crashing waves of the seas!

God does not send the torrential trials that rain down on us. He does allow the downpours that lead to desperation. We can ride above the tide of sorrows like a surfer riding mighty waves. God uses sorrow and heartache to strengthen us!

Your testimonies are very sure; Holiness adorns Your house, O Lord forever. Vs 5

I invest much of my time writing these messages. I do it because the Word of God is true and sure!

For the sake of your eternal destiny and the people you love read the bible continuously. Do what it tells you to do. Do not do the things it tells you not to do.

When you discover that you cannot be faithfully obedient the Word of God do not lose hope, do not give up and do not give out.

Do what you can with what you have right where you are for the glory of God. Trust Jesus to do what you cannot!

Sin has a tight grip on the world but Jesus is the king of creation! Is He your king?

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV

The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ!

This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.

The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.

The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him!

Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved.

God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!

Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.

We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus!

Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.

God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Sin has a tight grip on the world but Jesus is the king of creation!
