A light to the World, to open our eyes to our own darkness, to remove the chains of bondage.  Our part……..Believe and walk in faith in Jesus, who did what we could not. 

“I am the Lord, I have called You in righteousness, I will also hold You by the hand and watch over You, And I will appoint You as a covenant to the people, As a light to the nations, To open blind eyes, To bring out prisoners from the dungeon And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭42‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭NASB

Nothing will be Impossible with God….

“For I am mindful of the sincere faith within you, which first dwelt in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am sure that it is in you as well. For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭6‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/100/2ti.1.5-6.NASB1995

Lord, may your spirit continue to lead and guide us, in your power and strength and not our own. Help us to resist the Devil and his lies, and our own self righteous desires. Be our Rock. Amen

The Battle belongs to the Lord! Help us to see the battle through your eyes, Oh Lord. The battle rages within our own hearts, and the unseen things, that surround us in this fallen world. Help us to see the Victory has already been won, both through your death and resurrection, and your promise of coming return and making all things right again. Show who you are today, and every day, as we persevere in Your Name. Amen!

We draw near, when we accept Gods invitation to be rescued from ourselves. It is an act of surrender from trying to measure up to a Holy God. God invites us, through his son Jesus’s sacrifice on our behalf. He gave his life, so that we might live, both now, and for all of eternity. If you have not done, this, will you consider this today. Let us know, if you have and we will celebrate with you. God Bless.

James 1:12 Persevering under trials brings maturity in our Faith and Hope for tomorrow.

Notes from John MacArthur Study Bible

1:12 Blessed. See notes on Mt 5:4, 10, 11. Believers who successfully endure trials are truly happy (cf. 5:11). perseveres. See note on v. 3. In this context, it also describes the passive, painful survival of a trial and focuses on the victorious outcome. Such a person never relinquishes his saving faith in God; thus this concept is closely related to the doctrine of eternal security and perseverance of the believer (see note on Mt 24:13; cf. Jn 14:15, 23; 1Jn 2:5, 6, 15, 19; 4:19; 1Pe 1:6–8). trial. See note on v. 2. approved. Lit. “passed the test” (see note on v. 2, “trials”). The believer has successfully and victoriously gone through his trials, indicating he is genuine because his faith has endured like Job’s. crown of life. Best translated “the crown which is life.” “Crown” was the wreath put on the victor’s head after ancient Greek athletic events. Here, it denotes the believer’s ultimate reward, eternal life, which God has promised to him and will grant in full at death or at Christ’s coming (see notes on 2Ti 4:8; Rev 2:10; cf. 1Pe 5:4).

Your Mercies NEVER fail us. The birth of Jesus, was the beginning of a new covenant, to all people. Many, will come to know him, not just as a Baby,but as the Son of God, who came to save the World, from their sin.

Before the battle, while being tremendously outnumbered, the Israelites, bowed and worshipped before the Lord, and this is what the Spirit of God said….” You need not fight in this battle; station yourselves, stand and see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.’ Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out to face them, for the Lord is with you.”“ ‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭20‬:‭17‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/100/2ch.20.17.NASB1995

For our astruggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places! Eph 6:12

speculations. Thoughts, ideas, reasonings, philosophies, and false religions are the ideological forts in which men barricade themselves against God and the gospel (cf. 1Co 3:20). every thought captive. Emphasizes the total destruction of the fortresses of human and satanic wisdom and the rescuing of those inside from the damning lies that had enslaved them.
