Today’s Year End Feast
I
Dec. 31, 2013 – Proverbs
2
What’s The Value of
Wisdom?
You will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge
of God.
Proverbs 2 “Promises to those who
seek wisdom. (1-9) The advantages of wisdom. (10-22)” - Matthew Henry Concise
Dear Saints,
Today
we thank God for the blessings of 2013 and look forward to serving Jesus in
the New Year! We prayerfully continue
our Feast in the book of Proverbs Chapter 2
Proverbs 2 Points out the
values and promises awaiting the believer who seeks wisdom. “21 For
the upright will inhabit the land, and those with integrity will remain in
it, 22 but the wicked will be cut off from the land, and the treacherous will
be rooted out of it” Proverbs 2:21-22 (English
Standard Version) ESV. We should prefer the
wisdom, understanding and fear of God over Gold and Silver (see Proverbs 2:4-5). Jesus said; “I am sending you out as lambs
in the midst of wolves.” Therefor we
must seek the wisdom of God to accomplish our mission for Jesus. God’s Word tells us how to prepare for
spiritual warfare (see Ephesians
6:10-18). “18
“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. 19 Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it
springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:18-19 ESV. Let’s join Jesus in bringing forth this new thing. Jesus has a purpose for you; seek God’s wisdom
and Jesus’ righteousness (see Matthew 6:33). The Holy Spirit will
give you what you need when you need it (see John
14:26). Ask God for wisdom;
it comes with purpose and promise (see James
3:17).

Do you want to answer before God stops calling? Do you want to find true happiness, peace

Dec. 30, 2013– Proverbs
1
What’s The
Beginning Of Knowledge?
If we turn at God’s reproof, He will pour out His Holy Spirit to
you.
Proverbs
an overview; “The subject of this book
may be thus stated by an enlargement on the opening verses. 1. The Proverbs
of Solomon, the son of David, king of Israel. 2. Which treat of the knowledge
of wisdom, of piety towards God, of instruction and moral discipline, of the
understanding wise and prudent counsels. 3. Which treat of the attainment of
instruction in wisdom, which wisdom is to be shown in the conduct of life,
and consists in righteousness with regard to our fellow-creatures. 4. Which
treat of the giving to the simple sagacity to discover what is right, by
supplying them with just principles, and correct views of virtue and vice;
and to the young man knowledge, so that he need not err through ignorance;
and discretion, so that by pondering well these precepts, he may not err
through obstinacy. Take the proverbs of other nations, and we shall find
great numbers founded upon selfishness, cunning, pride, injustice, national
contempt, and animosities. The principles of the Proverbs of Solomon are piety,
charity, justice, benevolence, and true prudence. Their universal purity
proves that they are the word of God.” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Proverbs 1 “The use of the Proverbs.
(1-6) Exhortations to fear God and obey parents. (7-9) To avoid the enticings
of sinners. (10-19) The address of Wisdom to sinners. (20-33)” - Matthew Henry Concise
Dear Saints,
The proverbs of Solomon,
begins by pointing out the wisdom of fearing God. Avoid the temptations of sinners because sin
takes away the life of the trespasser. Wisdom
cries out a warning against scoffers and the fools dislike of knowledge. “32 For
the simple are killed by their turning away, and the complacency of fools
destroys them; 33 but whoever listens to me will dwell secure and will be at
ease, without dread of disaster.” Proverbs 1:32-33 (English
Standard Version) ESV. Proverbs shouts out
the wisdom in aligning our life with God’s precious gift of salvation (see
John 3:16-18). In Jesus we will find comfort and rest. “33 I
have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world
you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 ESV. Today is the day of salvation there is still work to be done. Every attempt we make to share the love of
God has the potential to bring joy to the angels in heaven (see
Luke
15:10)! The potential for bringing
new believers to join in the harvest.
The fear of the Lord is
the beginning of knowledge! Hallelujah!

“Let not your hearts be troubled.
Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If
it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you
to myself, that where I am you may be also.” Matthew 11:28 ESV.

We Are Warned Against Idleness!
Today’s Feast
Dec. 29, 2013– 2
Thessalonians 3
We Are Warned
Against Idleness!
Saints, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, stay separated
from any brother or sister who is walking in idleness.
2 Thessalonians 3 “The apostle expresses
confidence in the Thessalonians, and prays for them. (1-5) He charges them to
withdraw from disorderly walkers, particularly from the lazy and busybodies.
(6-15) And concludes with a prayer for them, and a greeting. (16-18)” - Matthew Henry Concise
Dear Saints,
In the third chapter Paul
requests prayer and warns against lazy busy bodies. He closes with this benediction; “16 Now may the Lord of peace himself
give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. 17 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own
hand. This is the sign of genuineness in every letter of mine; it is the way
I write. 18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.” 2 Thessalonians 3:16-18 (English
Standard Version) ESV. Idle busy bodies
bring shame on the Word of God as well as their selves (see Matthew
12:36-37). Jesus himself gave
us a work plan for the Saints (see Matthew 28:16-20) today. “1 “Let
not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my
Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that
I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I
will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.” Matthew 11:28 ESV. Remember your faith will
be accompanied with action (see James 2:20). I can assure you faith without works is dead.
Let the Word of God direct us in all
we do and say thusly honoring Jesus until He comes for us.
Is Jesus calling to you?

Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your
life? If the answer is yes to any of

Will We Be Considered Worthy?
Today’s Feast
I don’t speak Spanish so I use the Google translator to put the
Feast out in Spanish for your convenience!
If the meaning of the Feast is being lost in translation please let me
know; mstanj@hotmail.com Thank You!
Dec. 28, 2013– 2
Thessalonians 1-2
The Judgment at
Christ's Coming!
This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may
be considered worthy of the kingdom of God
2
Thessalonians Overview; “The second epistle to
the Thessalonians was written soon after the first. The apostle was told
that, from some expressions in his first letter, many expected the second
coming of Christ was at hand, and that the day of judgment would arrive in
their time. Some of these neglected their worldly duties. St. Paul wrote
again to correct their error, which hindered the spread of the gospel. He had
written agreeably to the words of the prophets of the Old Testament; and he
tells them there were many counsels of the Most High yet to be fulfilled,
before that day of the Lord should come, though, because it is sure, he had
spoken of it as near. The subject led to a remarkable foretelling, of some of
the future events which were to take place in the after-ages of the Christian
church, and which show the prophetic spirit the apostle possessed. ” - Matthew Henry Concise
2 Thessalonians 1 “The apostle blesses God
for the growing state of the love and patience of the Thessalonians. (1-4)
And encourages them to persevere under all their sufferings for Christ,
considering his coming at the great day of account. (5-12)” - Matthew Henry Concise
2 Thessalonians 2 “Cautions against the
error that the time of Christ's coming was just at hand. There would first be
a general apostacy from the faith, and a revealing of the antichristian man
of sin. (1-4) His destruction, and that of those who obey him. (5-12) The
security of the Thessalonians from apostacy; an exhortation to stedfastness,
and prayer for them. (13-17)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear Saints,
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast in the book of Colossians. By reading 2 Thessalonians Chapter 1 & Chapter
2
In the first two chapters
Paul is reaffirming the second coming of Jesus and the Saints (you & I) will
be found worthy because Jesus is righteous. “11 To
this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his
calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by his
power, 12 so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you
in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.” 2
Thessalonians 1:11-12 (English Standard Version) ESV. I think it would be of great advantage in
our walk with Jesus to read chapters one and two as if Paul was writing to
you and I today’s Saints. “16 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ
himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and
good hope through grace, 17 comfort your hearts and establish them in every
good work and word.” 2
Thessalonians 2:16-17. There is nothing in these two chapters that
would be far from our walk with Jesus today.
We should be walking with and sharing Jesus wherever we are and whatever
we are doing (see Matthew
28:16-20) today. “Come to
me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28 ESV. Jesus loves every sinner
that turns from their sin and asks him into their heart as Lord of their
life. Don’t be fooled by what the
world proclaims to be legal or good (see Proverbs
3:5-6) there is no salvation in the laws of men.
Do you hear Jesus calling you?
Do you want to know perfect love?
Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your
life? If the answer is yes to any of
these questions please click the following link; http://www.admenu.com/calling.htm
