David said about him:I saw the Lord always before me.Because he is at my right hand,I will not be shaken.Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will live in hope, because you will not abandon me to the grave,nor will you let your Holy One see decay.You have made known to me the paths of life;you will fill me with joy in your presence. Acts 2:25-28

From time to time, we as believers in Jesus need to be reminded that the strength and power and victory we enjoy in God are not from something inside ourselves by nature, but from the Lord Jesus Himself.  As mere human beings we have no special power against the forces of evil.  We are often bested by human powers, so why would we be so deluded as to think that we can resist the spiritual forces of evil in our own strength?

True, God has given us a will.  We have to the power to choose between right and wrong.  And by God's grace, we do often choose to do the right thing.  But we are children of God by grace, through faith in Jesus Christ (see Ephesians 2:8-10 for clarification along these lines).  The good works we do are the results of God's own goodness at work in Christ in and through us.  The entire teaching of the New Testament Scriptures make this evident.

It is God's grace in us working to do His own good will.  It is Christ at work in us, giving us both godly desires and godly determination.  It is the power of God's own Holy Spirit in our hearts and lives that enables us and leads us onward to a moral and spiritual victory.  The power is not human at all, not since the fall of Adam and Eve.  And yet God sent His own Son (His own Eternal Beloved One) to become human and so defeat evil as a human being.  The apostle Paul talks about this in Romans, calling the Lord Jesus, the "second Adam."

Jesus overcame sin in the flesh and remained without sin all His earthly life.  How odd, then, to human thinking, that God should then lead Jesus to the cross of execution where Christ would become sin for us, so that we might become God's righteousness in Him.  That is what Paul talks about in 2 Corinthians 5:17-21.  God was at work in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself.  All the victory over sin, and death, and hell itself is in Christ Jesus.

Sometimes, I think I might like very much to kick the devil in the rear end, and send him skidding across the floors of hell forever and ever.  I might imagine, at such times how it would be almost worth it to go to hell, just to make Satan truly miserable forever.  But of course, such thinking is madness.  The devil, however stupid and weak he might be when compared to God, is not a thing for me to tangle with.  

Even if the devil were not some supernatural thing, created by God long before I ever existed, and given great understanding and power, I would never stand a chance.  On earth, we understand that a gang leader is protected by the other members of his gang.  We understand that a mayor or governor or president is usually surrounded by men willing to fight and even die to protect their boss.  And these are just mortals with other human beings to protect them.  In hell (or any place else), I would have no power to withstand the spiritual beings that collect around the devil.  I am a sinner, and any power I might ever have had was lost when Adam sinned against God.

Jesus Christ, on the other hand, has great power.  Not only as the eternal Son of God but also as a sinless, guiltless human being.  God was at work in Christ when Jesus did enter the realms of hell and then conquered death on the morning of His resurrection.  Jesus did the kicking and Satan did the losing.  The victory was won for all who trust in Him when Jesus shed His blood for sin on the cross.

I'm not even telling half the tale here.  The New Testament books of Hebrews and Ephesians, and Romans tell much of the story.  It is certainly exciting reading for anyone who ever wanted to see the devil defeated.  Of course, there is more to come.  The book of Revelation, the last book of the Bible, gives bright glimpses of what yet come to pass, and all that is happening even now in the spiritual realm.  When God is finished with Satan, there will be no more devil to deal with, in any way, shape or form, on planet earth.  Jesus wins again!

Lord I submit myself to You. I realize that parenting a child in the way You would have me to is beyond my human abilities. I know I need You to help me. I want to partner with You and partake of Your gifts of wisdom, discernment, revelation, and guidance. I also need Your strength and patience , along with a generous portion of Your love flowing through me.Teach me how to love the way You love. Where I need to be healed, delivered, changed, matured, or made whole, I invite You to do that in me. Help me to walk in righteousness and integrity before You.Teach me Your ways, enable me to obey Your commandments and do only what is pleasing in Your sight. May the beauty of Your Spirit be so evident in me that I will be a godly role model.Give me the communication,teaching, and nuturing skills that I must have. Make me the parent You want me to be and teach me how to pray and truly intercede for the life of my children. Lord, You said in Your Word, "Whatever things you ask in prayer,believing,you will recieve" (Matthew 21:22).In Jesus name I ask that You will increase my faith to believe for all the things You've put on my heart to pray for concerning this child.

I'm Rich......

This morning I searched my wallet.
It was empty .

Then, I checked my pockets .
I found a few coins .

I then searched my heart and found you.
Then, I realized how rich I really am...


Thanks for being my friend and e-mail buddy !
May you be as rich as I am

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest fro your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.(Matthew 11:28-30)

Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of my youth an my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me for you are good, O Lord.(Psalms 25:4-7)

One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me hight upon a rock.(Psalms 27:4-5)
