Unstoppable!
Acts 1:3 “During the forty days after he suffered and died, he appeared to the apostles from time to time, and he proved to them in many ways that he was actually alive. And he talked to them about the Kingdom of God.”
The story continues… Jesus got to the gate and an angel let out a cry, “Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.”
Mysterious Plan
Matthew 27:40 “Look at you now!” they yelled at him. “You said you were going to destroy the Temple and rebuild it in three days. Well then, if you are the Son of God, save yourself and come down from the cross!”
Imagine when Jesus was crucified and nailed to the cross, Satan and his host felt they had Him. And they were checking to see if Jesus would come down from the cross.
Determined Purpose!
Acts 2:23“Him, being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God…” (NKJV, emphasis added).
For many of us, when we think about how Jesus was betrayed, we could say, it was Judas being greedy. Some even argue that Jesus too should have minded His speech.
Think Global
Daniel 7:14 “He was given authority, honour, and sovereignty over all the nations of the world, so that people of every race and nation and language would obey him. His rule is eternal—it will never end. His kingdom will never be destroyed.”
This is how I know that in the Name of Jesus every knee bows. Whether you are speaking in Spanish or Dutch, in the Name of Jesus every knee bows. Again, there is a problem
Forever The Same
Hebrews 13:8 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.”
Four things that can help us get purpose and direction for our lives between when we come alive in Christ, and when we will be one with Him physically in heaven. The first is Reveal Jesus.
On Mission
Romans 8:19 “For all of creation is waiting, yearning for the time when the children of God will be revealed.” (The Voice)
Four things that can help us get purpose and direction for our lives between when we became alive in Christ, and when we will be one with Him physically in heaven. The first is Reveal Jesus.
Coming Soon!
Acts 1:11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why are you standing here staring into heaven? Jesus has been taken from you into heaven, but someday he will return from heaven in the same way you saw him go!”
There is just so much in this passage of Scripture. This same Jesus. Think about it, Jesus was taken up into heaven, right? The question is, why didn’t He just disappear? He could have.
Assess Access
Hebrews 10:19-20 “And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven’s Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place.”
The question of worthiness applies to different aspects of our lives that worthiness applies to. But we will stay with the singleness example. She is a beauty queen with the most
Worthy?
Revelations 5:1 “Then I saw a scroll in the right hand of the one who was sitting on the throne. There was writing on the inside and the outside of the scroll, and it was sealed with seven seals. “
Revelations 5:2-5 And I saw a strong angel, who shouted with a loud voice: “Who is worthy…” to break the seals on this scroll and open it?” But no one in heaven or on earth or
Only Jesus!
Philippians 2:9-10 “Therefore [because He stooped so low] God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth” (AMPC)
For anyone reading this today who may be struggling with their faith, the first thing you need to establish is to see beyond reasonable doubt that Jesus actually rose from the dead. Read the rest of this entry
