Purpose

God place Jesus Christ  here on earth for a purpose.  Jesus Christ new he had work to do. Jesus had a very important message to deliver from God. He helped  with the process Jesus Christ met with his disciples.
Matthew:10-1 And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every affliction.
Jesus is the Light
 These twelve Jesus sent out, instructing them, “Go nowhere among the Gentiles and enter no town of the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And proclaim as you go, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers,[a] cast out demons. You received without paying; give without pay

FAMU Marching 100 Band
Over the next few days we will cover messages, messengers and purpose in our own life. This is the information we should pass on to our kids. Yes our kids. We have to many old and young people walking around with no purpose. Some people think all they need to do is eat, sleep and work .Let us not forget the career criminal, drug addict or gangster that never learned God's purpose for their  life.
Recently 3 members of FAMU marching band were found guilty of manslaughter. The FAMU Administration and band members lost sight of their purpose.  EDUCATION!

Peace


Joshua 10:1King James Version (KJV)

10 Now it came to pass, when Adonizedec king of Jerusalem had heard how Joshua had taken Ai, and had utterly destroyed it; as he had done to Jericho and her king, so he had done to Ai and her king; and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel, and were among them;

Baltimore Md., Franklin Mo., Afghanistan and Beirut. Yes I said Beirut. Today it is hard to tell the difference. We supposedly live in a civilize society where we can sit down and discuss our different opinions and stereotypes.

God Speaks II

The Lord Is My Light Art Print
The Lord is my light
Job 33:14-16New International Version (NIV)

14 For God does speak—now one way, now another
    though no one perceives it.
15 In a dream, in a vision of the night,
    when deep sleep falls on people
    as they slumber in their beds,
16 he may speak in their ears
    and terrify them with warnings
  
  Sometimes when we make a request to God don't expect to receive the answer in an email or by direct letter in the US mail.God sometimes speaks to us in dreams and visions. Not all dreams are of God but their is always a message in our dreams and visions.

I Have a Dream


 

 

Compassion

Exodus 33:19New International Version (NIV)

19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.

Compassion:  a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune, accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering.


When we give our time and money to someone in need that is a great way to show compassion.

  As a random act of kindness show some compassion to someone less fortunate.  Be a Blessing and give a Blessing.

False Apostles

Their end will be what their actions deserve.For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel f ight.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15New International Version (NIV)



As a reminder when we fellowship each Sunday and each day with each other we are giving our praise and allegiance to God the almighty.  Let's not get it twisted the building and the person in the pulpit is the means of receiving the message.  I know some might be wondering where am I going with  this?

Grace

Grace:  a pleasing or attractive Endowment. Favor or Goodwill.


Acts 20:24New International Version (NIV)

Resurrected  Jesus
24 However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.

Holy Spirit

After God sent his only son Jesus Christ to teach us the fundamentals of life. Then death removed Jesus from our presence. Some wondered who will lead us next?

Holy Spirit
John 14:26 [Full Chapter]
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
 
Holy Spirit:
In the belief of many Christians, one of the three persons in the one God, along with the Father and the Son ( Jesus is the Son); the Holy Spirit is also called the Holy Ghost. Jesus promised the Apostles that he would send the Holy Spirit after his Crucifixion and Resurrection. The Spirit came to the disciples of Jesus on Pentecost.
When in doubt about making Christ like decisions. Stop look and listen.  Yes that is the Holy Spirit taking charge and navigating our path.

Ressurection

Matthew 28:6-9New International Version (NIV)

The Resurrection of Jesus
He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”
So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples. Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.
He's back!!!  Yesterday, today and forever is what God intended.  To get our attention. God sent his only son Jesus Christ to deliver some powerful information to enhance our life.
