Jan. 20,
2016 – Acts 12
Give It All To God!
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 years.
“2 Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of
various kinds, 3 for you know that the
testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” James 1:2-3, English Standard Version (ESV)
Dear
Saints,
Thank you for
joining us, as we prayerfully continue our Feast in Acts Chapter 12; “The martyrdom of James, and the imprisonment of Peter. (1-5) He
is delivered from prison by an angel. (6-11)Peter
departs, Herod's rage. (12-19) The
death of Herod. (20-25)”
- Matthew Henry Concise.
The
martyrdom of James, Christ told him that he should drink of the cup that he
was to drink of, and be baptized with the baptism that he was to be baptized
with. The imprisonment of Peter. An angel of God releases Peter from prison.
Herod searched for Peter but he escaped Herod’s rage. The death of Herod; “20 Now Herod was angry with the
people of Tyre and Sidon, and they came to him with one accord, and having
persuaded Blastus, the king’s chamberlain, they asked for peace, because
their country depended on the king’s country for food. 21 On an appointed day
Herod put on his royal robes, took his seat upon the throne, and delivered an
oration to them. 22 And the people were shouting, “The voice of a god, and
not of a man!” 23 Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him down, because
he did not give God the glory, and he was eaten by worms and breathed his
last.
24 But the word of God increased
and multiplied.
25 And Barnabas and Saul returned
from Jerusalem when they had completed their service, bringing with them
John, whose other name was Mark.” Acts
12:22-25, ESV. There is a good lesson to be learned here, never take
credit for God’s work. If you read the scripture and understand what it
said, when you share it remember to give credit to the Holy Spirit. “Jesus said to her, “I am the
resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall
he live,” John
11:25, ESV. We are saved and brought to good purpose by God. Give Him the
credit for what your salvation accomplishes, keeping the first thing first,
that is salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. The father sent Jesus to die
for our sin. For you and I are unable to pay for our own trespasses. We must
give God all the credit for the good works our salvation produces. If the Lord is
willing I’ll send and post the Feast again tomorrow
You’ll find the
praise and prayer list at; admenu.com/prayer.html. Prayer request or Praise reports can be
sent to brother Mike at; mike@admenu.com
Don’t get
caught up in “religion”, it is about a relationship. Our salvation depends
completely on God! We are the Saints that Jesus sacrificed his life to pay in
full for our sin, when we repent and accept Jesus. He will come to get every
Saint; “36 “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels
of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” Matthew 24:36, ESV. We are
building our relationship with Jesus right now, do not wait while you try to
change anything. Click this link for
