ONE DAY AT A TIME DAILY

July 7 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

ONE DAY AT A TIME DAILY

“Hear my cry, O God: attend unto my prayer…So will I sing praise unto Thy name for ever, that I may DAILY perform my vows.”

Psalms 61: 1, 8, A.V. (Read verses 1-8 for yourself)

“Trust in Him AT ALL TIMES: ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us [at all times!].”

Ps. 62:8

“How thankful I am that we have only one day to live at a time. One day to keep our souls stayed upon [God by faith], one day to watch, one day to progress in the spiritual life, and thus our day may be fruitful, precious [not wasted] days to us.

GOD ENCOURAGES AND WARNS

July 5 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

GOD ENCOURAGES AND WARNS

“Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show My people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.”

Isa. 58:1, Authorized Version.

Like the gospel-prophet, God’s last-day messenger wrote these admonitions to His people of the last days, the spiritual house of Jacob:

“Hypocrisy is peculiarly offensive to God. A large majority of men and women who profess the truth PREFER SMOOTH MESSAGES. They do not desire to have their sins and defects brought before them. They want ACCOMMODATING MINISTERS, who will not arouse conviction by speaking the truth. They choose men who will FLATTER them, and in their turn they FLATTER the minister who has chosen such a ‘good’ spirit, while they REVILE the faithful servant of God.

EGYPT’S HATRED TOWARDS THE SABBATH

June 2, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

EGYPT’S HATRED TOWARDS THE SABBATH See Exodus 5: 4-14.

Long before the Ten Commandments were written on two tables of stone by the Creator’s own finger and given to Moses atop Mt. Sinai, the Sabbath day observance and worship was already a point controversy even while Israel was still slaves in Egypt— the first atheistic empire!

Moses and Aaron tried to teach the Israelites to observe the Sabbath day in Egypt. But resting on the Sabbath angered the pharaoh and he issued a DECREE that made Sabbath-keeping impossible in Egypt.

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

May 25, 2020

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

REMEMBER WEEKLY THE CREATOR’S MEMORIAL DAY

See Exodus 20 : 8-11. And God said: “Moreover I also gave them My Sabbaths, to be a SIGN between them and Me, that they might know that I SANCTIFY them.” Ezekiel 20 : 12 (See verse 20).

To the remnant who are faithfully keeping the commandments of God and overcoming their transgressions of God’s Law by grace, the “sign,” which also means “mark,” or “seal” has already been “written” in their mind, because it has already been committed to memory.

Unchain Your Heart from Worry and Fear

    “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and a sound mind” (1 Tim. 1: 7).

People are Afraid’: Sen. Kamala Harris on What the Government Should Do About the Coronavirus & Life in one of the Epicenters.”: Sean Neuman, People, March 23, 2020.

Dear fellow Bible-believing Christians. Be honest. Are you worried and fearful because of this mysterious sudden emergence as if from nowhere (the blame-game is on) of this novel (new) corona virus that rapidly evolved into a global pandemic overnight, as it were like no other known previous to it—catching all flat-footed, instantly revealing how proud and self-confident finite mortals are and yet how shamefully and clumsily unprepared they are to deal with the bigger and greater catastrophes, calamities and conflicts that will be played out in the biggest stage and theater of the world.

Eroding Laws and Institutions of Man: No Assurance in Anything Human or Earthly both of State and Church: Part I

Eroding Laws and Institutions of Man: No Assurance in Anything  Human or Earthly both of State and Church: Part I

What is currently unfolding in rapid-fire action before us, particularly with the state of affairs of the state and its three branches of government— executive, legislative and judicial and their respective institutions, legal, constitutional and traditional, in relation to the church and its religious institutions and powers—will impact and shape our immediate future and eternal destiny in ways most still haven’t yet imagined, figured out or have been fully warned of. (Fast forward: The work of the three angels’ messages of Revelation 14, culminates in “enlightening the whole earth with knowledge of God’s glory” in the last invitation “to come out of her, My people” called the fourth angel of Revelation 18. God, through the Holy Spirit takes over the reins of the work of salvation in the promised latter rain. Then earth’s probation ends.)

KOBE’S SUDDEN DEATH REMINDS US TO LIVE EACH DAY AS OUR TOMORROW

January 27 2020

KOBE’S SUDDEN DEATH REMINDS US TO LIVE EACH DAY AS OUR TOMORROW.

“Come now, you who say, ‘Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, but and sell and make profit, whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears a little time then vanished away.

Instead you ought to say, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that. But now you boast of your ignorance. All such boasting is evil.” James 4 :13-17, NKJV. — We are being reminded lest we forget or are deceived as to the uncertainty of the future outside and independent of Christ the Life-giver.

The “Fullness of Time” Never Specified Specific Time

Friday Morning Manna

December 27, 2019
By Nathaniel Fajardo                                                                                                                                                           email:[email protected]

The “Fullness of Time” Never Specified Specific Time

      “But When the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the [condemnation] of the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.”  

Gal. 4: 4, 5, N.K.J.V.

Sent forth by the Father, the only-begotten Son of God was “born of a woman” and became the Son of man “when the fullness of time had come,” not a “twinkling of an eye” earlier or later. As the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, He was the subject of the first and beginning of all promises and propheciesof the Bible, coming first as “the seed” (Gen. 3: 15) and at last, “the Lord Jesus,” “King of kings and Lord of lords” in His glorious second coming!
