What Kind?
Genesis 1:11 “Then God said, “Let the land sprout with vegetation—every sort of seed-bearing plant, and trees that grow seed-bearing fruit. These seeds will then produce the kinds of plants and trees from which they came.” And that is what happened.” (emphasis added).
The seed will only produce the same kind of plant and trees that they came from. And this is really huge. Everything in your life comes from and is in existence by seeds planted by someone else and yourself. Read the rest of this entry

John 10:7-10 “‘Therefore,’ Jesus said again, ‘Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have it to the full.’” (NIV). Read the rest of this entry
Request & Fix
Isaiah 26:3 “You will keep in perfect peace ALL who trust in you, ALL whose thoughts are fixed on you!” (emphasis added).

Body & Heart
John 14:27 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart! And the peace I give isn’t fragile like the peace the world gives. So don’t be troubled or afraid.” (LB, emphasis added)
To enjoy God’s promise of peace, the second thing you must do is Get Rest For Your Body. Ezekiel 20:12 “And I gave them my Sabbath days of rest as a sign between them and me. It was to remind them that I am the Lord, who had set them apart to be holy.” Read the rest of this entry

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.
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)

This Same Jesus!
Acts.1:11who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.” (NKJV, emphasis added).
This Same Jesus! It is easy to imagine Peter, James, John, and all the disciples in that gathering. But guess what? Picture Peter’s mother-in-law being there. This same Jesus who laid hands on her and healed her. Read the rest of this entry
Ever Present
John 14:16 “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you.” (emphasis added).

From Within
John 7:38-39 “‘Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given…” (NIV, emphasis added)
