“MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE”

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV)

Gen 1:1 (NKJV) “In the beginning God created the Heavens and the earth” “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1:1-5 (NKJV) “The creative force that brought about the existence of our world is the Word, And the Word is God. The Word at the beginning of John 1 is linked by this passage to the first words spoken by God in the beginning, when he says “‘Let there be light’ and there was light.” Genesis 1:3 (NKJV)

“Every command is a promise; accepted by the will, and received into the soul, and it also brings with it the life of the Infinite One. It transforms our nature, and re-creates our character into the image of God.” (Ellen G. White.) In the book of Genesis it tells us that the world and the very existence of life was conceived by God in the spirit.

“Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Gen.  1:2 (NKJV) So as a Child of God what that text tells me, if God can transform darkness into light. He can surly transform my life IF, my desire is to live with him in the earth made new.

IF is the key word because we also must have a desire to want to change. We can’t forget, there is a spiritual warfare going on each day over our minds and body. And the god of this world will do whatever it take to get you to follow him to perdition.

But if we choose salvation, than we will begin to understand through faith in God’s word and His Spirit, that a miracle has truly taken place in our lives and that miracle is called “redeemed by the blood of the Lamb.” Paul tells us “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God. who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” 2 Cor 5:17-18 (NKJV)

And once we have completely given it all to the Master we then have given God the permission to equip us with the full armor of His righteousness to protect us against the forces of evil. And our confirmation want be a number given to us, but a character that is in the very image of God. And if we continue to live our life “by faith” and endure till the end than one day soon God will take us home to live with Him throughout the ceaseless ages of eternity.

So friends please don’t allowed the things of this world to become detrimental to your salvation. Study God’s Word, because it’s what gives us the strength to endure. Hosea 4:6 (NKJV) tells us “MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE” And So my friends remember that Jesus loves us and because of His love.

Ephesians 1:10-14 (NKJV) tells us “to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ. In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession to the praise of his glory. Now that is what I call a HAPPY ENDING.

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
