Stand in faith, Jesus can speak to you and through you!

And He said to me, “Son of man, stand on your feet, and I will speak to you.” Ezekiel 2:1 NKJV

God chose Ezekiel to be a Prophet. God spoke to the Prophet. The prophet spoke to God’s people. Before a Prophet could speak the words of God he had to know the Word of God.

What did God say to His people through Ezekiel? Ezekiel was sent to pronounce judgment on Israel. God would judge Israel for their sin. He would judge them for turning their backs on Him.

In the book of Ezekiel God says; “Then you shall know that I Am the Lord,” “I Am the Lord your God”, “They will be My people and I will be their God,” or similar statements over seventy times!

God’s people sinned. They made mistakes. But He would never turn His back on them. He would pursue them with His love. He would be their God. They would be His people!

You have made mistakes. You have sinned. God will never turn His back on you. He will pursue you with His love!

God spoke these words to the enemies of His people as well. He would judge them. They would know He alone is God in the heavens above and on the Earth below!

God wants all people to know Him. He does not want anyone to perish. He wants all people to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ!

Do you know the Lord? Have you heard the Word of God? God wants you to partner with Him. He wants to use you to reveal Himself to people who do not know Him!

If you do not know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior turn to Him today. God is waiting to show you how much He loves you!

Call out to Jesus!

In the quietness of your own heart ask Jesus Christ to come into your life. Ask Him to be your Lord and Savior!

If you have questions or need help reply to this e-mail or reach out to a Christian friend or family member. Do not wait. Turn to the Lover of Your Soul today!

Study the Word of God to show yourself approved. Fill your heart and mind with the Word of God. Jesus can speak to you and through you today!

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!

Stand in faith, Jesus can speak to you and through you!
