Today’s Feast
Jan 16, 2015- Genesis 23
Are You Sharing The Life?
Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily. We will
spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s
Word in approximately three years1.
“20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and
opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.”
Revelation
3:20 New King James Version (NKJV).
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by
reading the book of Genesis Chapter 23; The death of Sarah, Abraham
applies for a burying-place. (1-13) Sarah's burying-place. (14-20) ” - Matthew Henry Concise
Today
we prayerfully continue our Feast in Genesis
23. God called Sarah home at one hundred twenty three years of age.
Many people would just say Sarah died, but she had a full life at a hundred
and twenty three years old. This takes us back to issue number one. For any
new Saint’s issue number one is Salvation free through the sacrifice of
Jesus. He paid the full price for our Salvation when he died on the cross. He
rose again overcoming death for all that believe, turn from their sin and ask
Jesus to come in as Lord of their life. That brings us to face several
things. We were created in God’s image that means we are eternal beings. Sin
entered through one man Adam. Sin was
paid for by one man the only begotten son of God, Jesus. God’s grace and easy way to remember what
that means is; “Gods Riches At Christ’s
Expense.” Now we get the whole picture the death that God gives as a
blessing to take us out of a world of sin to abide in his presence for
eternity. Well then what is so bad about death? Well do any that die ignoring
God’s precious gift still get eternal life. The answer is a resounding “YES”! However it won’t be with God.
They will live a tortured eternal life separated from the father! Now this is
how our Lord Jesus tells it; “22 So it was that the beggar died, and was
carried by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died and was
buried. 23 And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw
Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. 24 “Then he cried and said,
‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip
of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.’
25 But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your
good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things; but now he is comforted and
you are tormented. 26 And besides all this, between us and you there is a
great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor
can those from there pass to us.’“ Luke
16:22-26 NKJV.
So
then we see that we must accept God’s gift of eternal life now. If we just
obey God, turn from sin and accept his gift. God will provide a new home and
body for us with him for eternity. If we reject the gift of eternal life with
God, we will live eternally in misery and torture, eternally thirsty. I would
think that this knowledge would make every one of us want to share Jesus with
every soul we meet it is the great commission;” 18 And Jesus came and
spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on
earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them
in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching
them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you
always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.” Matthew
28:18-20 NKJV. Let’s go now sharing Jesus and the Grace of God and
the gift of Jesus. You may be feeling very uncomfortable Saint. You may get
ridiculed but what is that compared to eternal separation from God.
“7 Then Jesus said to them
again, “Most
assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. … 9 I am the door.
If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find
pasture. 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more
abundantly.”” John
10:7, 9-10 NKJV.
Is Jesus calling to you
today? Are you ready to answer God’s call? If the answer is yes;
today is the day of your salvation! Don’t wait another minute to leave,
change or quit anything (see Revelation
3:20) Jesus is at knocking at your door this minute. He wants you
to come just as you are, surrendering all! Will you answer Him today?
Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life? If
