Seeking your wisdom from God. HE knows future.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...

 

The people of the world go by what they think and by that which they can reason. 

 

We who are of God have a far better way.  We can turn to God and ask HIM what HE wants us to do.  God has one great advantage over those humans that we can ask for counsel.  God knows the future!

Proverbs 3:5-7   Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge HIM, and HE shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

*** 

Romans 8:14   For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

*** 

James 1:17   Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

Isaiah 55:8-13   For MY thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways MY ways, saith the Lord.  

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are MY ways higher than your ways, and MY thoughts than your thoughts.  

10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:  

11 So shall MY word be that goeth forth out of MY mouth: it shall not return unto ME void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. 

12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.

 

13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.

The real Christians are those who will follow the scriptures, making the scriptures their way of life.

 

Psalm 37:4    Delight thyself also in the Lord: and HE shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

 

***

 

Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Matthew 6:33    But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and HIS righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Counterfeit Christians:  the antichrist comes into the church before Jesus returns

 

Matthew 5:32 Jesus said to the men: But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

I Corinthians 7:10-11  And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:  But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.

II Thessalonians 2:3-4   Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 

 

Churches fall away from scripture. 

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

II Timothy 3:1-7   This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

 

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

 

(This is in the church today where they go by doctrines of men and have a "form" of godliness.)

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

II Timothy 3:13-17  But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17  That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
