WHAT IS MAN? PART 3

NKJ Genesis 1:28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

WHAT IS MAN? PART 3

MADE IN DEVINE IMAGE

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Genesis 5:1 This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God.

WOMAN CREATED FOR MAN
1 Corinthians 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. 8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man. 9 Nor was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.

NO MAN CAN'T TAME THE TONGUE

James 3:7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind. 8 But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so. 11 Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening? 12 Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.

If we are created in the image of God, we ought to speak and act righteously with the conviction God gave us. Did you know we are also created to judge angels.

1 Corinthians 6:3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY WE MAY RECOGNISE OUR PLACE IN THE BODY OF CHRIST AND BE AMBASSADORS IN THE WORLD FOR YOU.

IN JESUS NAME.

AMEN.

WHAT IS MAN? PART 2

NKJ Genesis 1:27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

EQUALITY OF MAN

THE RICH AND POOR ARE EQUAL

Proverbs 22:2 The rich and the poor have this in common, The Lord is the maker of them all.

ALL BROTHERS

Matthew 23:8 But you, do not be called 'Rabbi'; for One is your Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren.

ALL ARE EQUAL

Acts 10:24 And the following day they entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends. 25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, "Stand up; I myself am also a man." 27 And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together. 28 Then he said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

Romans 10:12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

POOR HEIRS TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD

James 2:5 Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

Those who believe in Jesus are heirs to the kingdom of God. We should treat one another as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Ephesians 4:32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.

PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT WE WOULD KEEP THE PEACE TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS IN CHRIST. IF THERE ARE OFFENSIVES I PRAY THAT WE WOULD ADDRESS THEM IN A WAY THAT IS PLEASING TO YOU.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN.

WHAT IS MAN? PART 1

NKJ Genesis 1: 26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

WHAT IS MAN?

APPARENT INSIGNIFICANCE

A TENANT IN A HOUSE OF CLAY

Job 4:12 "Now a word was secretly brought to me, And my ear received a whisper of it. 13 In disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men, 14 Fear came upon me, and trembling, Which made all my bones shake. 15 Then a spirit passed before my face; The hair on my body stood up. 16 It stood still, But I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; There was silence; Then I heard a voice saying: 17 'Can a mortal be more righteous than God? Can a man be more pure than his Maker? 18 If He puts no trust in His servants, If He charges His angels with error, 19 How much more those who dwell in houses of clay, Whose foundation is in the dust, Who are crushed before a moth? 20 They are broken in pieces from morning till evening; They perish forever, with no one regarding. 21 Does not their own excellence go away? They die, even without wisdom.'

Job 7:17 "What is man, that You should exalt him, That You should set Your heart on him, 18 That You should visit him every morning, And test him every moment? 19 How long? Will You not look away from me, And let me alone till I swallow my saliva? 20 Have I sinned? What have I done to You, O watcher of men? Why have You set me as Your target, So that I am a burden to myself? F10 21 Why then do You not pardon my transgression, And take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, And You will seek me diligently, But I will no longer be."


A WORM

Job 25: 1 Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said: 2 "Dominion and fear belong to Him; He makes peace in His high places. 3 Is there any number to His armies? Upon whom does His light not rise? 4 How then can man be righteous before God? Or how can he be pure who is born of a woman? 5 If even the moon does not shine, And the stars are not pure in His sight, 6 How much less man, who is a maggot, And a son of man, who is a worm?"


AN ATOM IN THE NATURAL UNIVERSE


Psalms 8:3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, 4 What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? 5 For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet, 7 All sheep and oxen-- Even the beasts of the field, 8 The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas. 9 O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!


A GRASSHOPPER WHEN COMPARED TO GOD

Isaiah 40:18 To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to Him? 19 The workman molds an image, The goldsmith overspreads it with gold, And the silversmith casts silver chains. 20 Whoever is too impoverished for such a contribution Chooses a tree that will not rot; He seeks for himself a skillful workman To prepare a carved image that will not totter. 21 Have you not known? Have you not heard? Has it not been told you from the beginning? Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth? 22 It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in. 23 He brings the princes to nothing; He makes the judges of the earth useless. 24 Scarcely shall they be planted, Scarcely shall they be sown, Scarcely shall their stock take root in the earth, When He will also blow on them, And they will wither, And the whirlwind will take them away like stubble. 25 "To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal?" says the Holy One. 26 Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.


YET UNDER THE WATCHFUL CARE OF THE ALMIGHTY

Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.' 11 "Behold, all those who were incensed against you Shall be ashamed and disgraced; They shall be as nothing, And those who strive with you shall perish. 12 You shall seek them and not find them-- Those who contended with you. Those who war against you Shall be as nothing, As a nonexistent thing. 13 For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, Saying to you, 'Fear not, I will help you.' 14 "Fear not, you worm Jacob, You men of Israel! I will help you," says the Lord And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. 15 "Behold, I will make you into a new threshing sledge with sharp teeth; You shall thresh the mountains and beat them small, And make the hills like chaff. 16 You shall winnow them, the wind shall carry them away, And the whirlwind shall scatter them; You shall rejoice in the Lord, And glory in the Holy One of Israel. 17 "The poor and needy seek water, but there is none, Their tongues fail for thirst. I, the Lord, will hear them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. 18 I will open rivers in desolate heights, And fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, And the dry land springs of water. 19 I will plant in the wilderness the cedar and the acacia tree, The myrtle and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the cypress tree and the pine And the box tree together, 20 That they may see and know, And consider and understand together, That the hand of the Lord has done this, And the Holy One of Israel has created it.

Eventhough God has created us, we must look to Him for strength and not give up. For God is with us.


PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT YOU HELP US IN OUR DAILY STRUGGLES OF LIFE AND LOOK TO YOU ALWAYS.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN.

GOD AND HIS ANIMALS PART 2

NKJ Genesis 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good

Here are more references to God's animals in the Bible.


Bears

DAVID KILLED THE LION AND THE BEAR-HE WILL KILL GOLIATH

1 Samuel 17:31 Now when the words which David spoke were heard, they reported them to Saul; and he sent for him. 32 Then David said to Saul, "Let no man's heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine." 33 And Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth." 34 But David said to Saul, "Your servant used to keep his father's sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, 35 I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God." 37 Moreover David said, "The Lord, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, "Go, and the Lord be with you!"

DAVID AND HIS MEN ARE LIKE BEARS

2 Samuel 17: 1 Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Now let me choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue David tonight. 2 I will come upon him while he is weary and weak, and make him afraid. And all the people who are with him will flee, and I will strike only the king. 3 Then I will bring back all the people to you. When all return except the man whom you seek, all the people will be at peace." 4 And the saying pleased Absalom and all the elders of Israel. 5 Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he says too." 6 And when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom spoke to him, saying, "Ahithophel has spoken in this manner. Shall we do as he says? If not, speak up." 7 So Hushai said to Absalom: "The advice that Ahithophel has given is not good at this time. 8 For," said Hushai, "you know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are enraged in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field; and your father is a man of war, and will not camp with the people. 9 Surely by now he is hidden in some pit, or in some other place. And it will be, when some of them are overthrown at the first, that whoever hears it will say, 'There is a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom.' 10 And even he who is valiant, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will melt completely. For all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and those who are with him are valiant men. 11 Therefore I advise that all Israel be fully gathered to you, from Dan to Beersheba, like the sand that is by the sea for multitude, and that you go to battle in person. 12 So we will come upon him in some place where he may be found, and we will fall on him as the dew falls on the ground. And of him and all the men who are with him there shall not be left so much as one. 13 Moreover, if he has withdrawn into a city, then all Israel shall bring ropes to that city; and we will pull it into the river, until there is not one small stone found there." 14 So Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than the advice of Ahithophel." For the Lord had purposed to defeat the good advice of Ahithophel, to the intent that the Lord might bring disaster on Absalom.

ELISHA SENT BEARS TO ATTACK YOUNG PEOPLE FOR MAKING FUN OF HIM.

2 Kings 2:23 Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up the road, some youths came from the city and mocked him, and said to him, "Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!" 24 So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the Lord. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths.

THE ROAD TO FOLLY

Proverbs 17:12 Let a man meet a bear robbed of her cubs, Rather than a fool in his folly.

DESCRIPTION OF A WICKED RULER

Proverbs 28: 15 Like a roaring lion and a charging bear Is a wicked ruler over poor people.


PEACE ON THE EARTH IN THE FUTURE

Isaiah 11: 1 There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots. 2 The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. 3 His delight is in the fear of the Lord, And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, Nor decide by the hearing of His ears; 4 But with righteousness He shall judge the poor, And decide with equity for the meek of the earth; He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked. 5 Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins, And faithfulness the belt of His waist. 6 "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, The leopard shall lie down with the young goat, The calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little child shall lead them. 7 The cow and the bear shall graze; Their young ones shall lie down together; And the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8 The nursing child shall play by the cobra's hole, And the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper's den. 9 They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord As the waters cover the sea.

It would be an amazing day when we and the animals of the earth live in harmoney with each other and God's presence will fill the earth.

PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT WE WOULD LOOK FORWARD FOR THE DAY OF YOUR PEACE AND PRESENCE
ON THE EARTH. I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD GIVE US STRENGTH FOR EACH DAY.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN

DONKEYS

GENESIS 22:3 So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him

NUMBERS 22:21-35 So Balaam rose in the morning, saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab. 22 Then God's anger was aroused because he went, and the Angel of the Lord took His stand in the way as an adversary against him. And he was riding on his donkey, and his two servants were with him. 23 Now the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand, and the donkey turned aside out of the way and went into the field. So Balaam struck the donkey to turn her back onto the road. 24 Then the Angel of the Lord stood in a narrow path between the vineyards, with a wall on this side and a wall on that side. 25 And when the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord, she pushed herself against the wall and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall; so he struck her again. 26 Then the Angel of the Lord went further, and stood in a narrow place where there was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left. 27 And when the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord, she lay down under Balaam; so Balaam's anger was aroused, and he struck the donkey with his staff. 28 Then the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?" 29 And Balaam said to the donkey, "Because you have abused me. I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you!" 30 So the donkey said to Balaam, "Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden, ever since I became yours, to this day? Was I ever disposed to do this to you?" And he said, "No." 31 Then the Lord opened Balaam's eyes, and he saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand; and he bowed his head and fell flat on his face. 32 And the Angel of the Lord said to him, "Why have you struck your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out to stand against you, because your way is perverse before Me. 33 The donkey saw Me and turned aside from Me these three times. If she had not turned aside from Me, surely I would also have killed you by now, and let her live." 34 And Balaam said to the Angel of the Lord, "I have sinned, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. Now therefore, if it displeases You, I will turn back." 35 Then the Angel of the Lord said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but only the word that I speak to you, that you shall speak." So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.

Deuteronomy 22:10 "You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together.

Judges 5:10 "Speak, you who ride on white donkeys, Who sit in judges' attire, And who walk along the road.

1 Samuel 9:3 Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. And Kish said to his son Saul, "Please, take one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the donkeys."

Matthew 21:1-10 Now when they drew near Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage,* at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me. 3 And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, 'The Lord has need of them,' and immediately he will send them." 4 All this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying: 5 "Tell the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your King is coming to you, Lowly, and sitting on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey.' " 6 So the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt, laid their clothes on them, and set Him on them. 8 And a very great multitude spread their clothes on the road; others cut down branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: "Hosanna to the Son of David! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!' Hosanna in the highest!" 10 And when He had come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved, saying, "Who is this?" 11 So the multitudes said, "This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee."

God has even used donkeys for his glory! How much more can God use you for His glory?

GOD HAS MADE ALL CREATURES GREAT AND SMALL

NKJ Genesis 1:21 So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.


God has created every living thing on the earth to praise him. Here are scrptures of what God has made.

Fish

NKJ Leviticus 11:9 ' These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers -- that you may eat.

NKJ Psalm 8:8 The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas.

NKJ Psalm 104:25 This great and wide sea, In which are innumerable teeming things, Living things both small and great.

NKJ John 21:6 And He said to them, "Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some." So they cast, and now they were not able to draw it in because of the multitude of fish.




Creeping thing

NKJ Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

NKJ Leviticus 5:2 'Or if a person touches any unclean thing, whether it is the carcass of an unclean beast, or the carcass of unclean livestock, or the carcass of unclean creeping things, and he is unaware of it, he also shall be unclean and guilty.

NKJ Leviticus 11:20 ' All flying insects that creep on all fours shall be an abomination to you.

NKJ Leviticus 11:42 'Whatever crawls on its belly, whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet among all creeping things that creep on the earth -- these you shall not eat, for they are an abomination.

NKJ Deuteronomy 14:19 "Also every creeping thing that flies is unclean for you; they shall not be eaten.

NKJ Ezekiel 8:10 So I went in and saw, and there -- every sort of creeping thing, abominable beasts, and all the idols of the house of Israel, portrayed all around on the walls.

NKJ Romans 1:23 and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man -- and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things.


Birds

NKJ Genesis 1:20 Then God said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens."

NKJ Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

NKJ Genesis 9:2 "And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand.

We should respect all of God's living creatures and take care of them as God has commanded Adam to take charge over them.

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!/REMEMBER GOD

NKJ Genesis 1:14 Then God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;



God created the times and seasons for our benefit. Not only so we can know what day it is but to remember what God has done in our lives.

NKJ Nehemiah 4:14 And I looked, and arose and said to the nobles, to the leaders, and to the rest of the people, "Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, great and awesome, and fight for your brethren, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses."

In the night

NKJ Psalm 63:6 When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches.

In early life

NKJ Ecclesiastes 12:1 Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, "I have no pleasure in them":

NKJ Ecclesiastes 12:2 While the sun and the light, The moon and the stars, Are not darkened, And the clouds do not return after the rain;

NKJ Ecclesiastes 12:3 In the day when the keepers of the house tremble, And the strong men bow down; When the grinders cease because they are few, And those that look through the windows grow dim;

NKJ Ecclesiastes 12:4 When the doors are shut in the streets, And the sound of grinding is low; When one rises up at the sound of a bird, And all the daughters of music are brought low;

NKJ Ecclesiastes 12:5 Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way; When the almond tree blossoms, The grasshopper is a burden, And desire fails. For man goes to his eternal home, And the mourners go about the streets.

In times of trouble

NKJ Jonah 2:7 "When my soul fainted within me, I remembered the LORD; And my prayer went up to You, Into Your holy temple.

Away from your home

NKJ Zechariah 10:9 "I will sow them among the peoples, And they shall remember Me in far countries; They shall live, together with their children, And they shall return.

It is our duty to remember God and His instructions.

NKJ Isaiah 62:6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent,

NKJ Isaiah 62:7 And give Him no rest till He establishes And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

NKJ 1 Timothy 4:6 If you instruct the brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have carefully followed.

NKJ 2 Peter 1:12 For this reason I will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, though you know and are established in the present truth.

NKJ 2 Peter 3:1 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder),

NKJ 2 Peter 3:2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior,

NKJ 2 Peter 3:3 knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts,

NKJ 2 Peter 3:4 and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."

NKJ 2 Peter 3:5 For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water,

NKJ 2 Peter 3:6 by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water.

NKJ 2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

NKJ 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

NKJ 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.


Do you know God? It's time to know God.

NKJ 2 Corinthians 6:2 For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you." Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN.

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!/BE PREPARED FOR THE LORD COMES

NKJ Genesis 1:13 So the evening and the morning were the third day.



It's interesting that the Bible talks about the third day. In Exodus 19 talks about God visiting the people of Isreal on the third day and telling them to prepare themselves.


NKJ Exodus 19:10 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.

NKJ Exodus 19:11 "And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the LORD will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

NKJ Exodus 19:16 Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled.

NKJ Exodus 19:17 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.

NKJ Exodus 19:18 Now Mount Sinai was completely in smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire. Its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.


Are you prepared to meet God? Do you know if you died today you would be with Jesus. Any true Christian would say yes.

If not, you can repent and believe in Jesus as savior and Lord. Give your life over to Him now, so can know for certain you would be with Jesus for all eternity.


NKJ Luke 23:43 And Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise."


PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT WE BE PREPARE FOR THE DAY OF YOUR ARRIVAL OR THE DAY WHEN WE MEET YOU FACE TO FACE AFTER OUR PASSING IN THIS WORLD.

HELP US TO GIVE A SHORT ACCOUNT OF OURS SINS AND CONFESS THEM TO YOU WHEN WE FALL.

HELP US TO LIVE LIKE TODAY IS OUR LAST DAY OF EARTH, SO WE CAN BE READY TO MEET YOU.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!/PART OF THE DESIGN

NKJ Genesis 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.


What makes a green bean bush produce green beans?

What make an apple tree produce an apples?

What makes human reproduce a human ?

God has placed a coded design in everything He has created.

Evolution is a theory of animal or plants gradually and continues to change from an existing form.

What are you going to believe?

The Bible says God has placed everything in order. There is no randomness or chaotic circumstance.

NKJ Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

NKJ Nehemiah 9:6 You alone are the LORD; You have made heaven, The heaven of heavens, with all their host, The earth and everything on it, The seas and all that is in them, And You preserve them all. The host of heaven worships You.

NKJ Job 26:7 He stretches out the north over empty space; He hangs the earth on nothing.

NKJ Psalm 102:25 Of old You laid the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the work of Your hands.

NKJ Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

NKJ Psalm 8:3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,

NKJ Psalm 19:1 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.

NKJ Psalm 40:5 Many, O LORD my God, are Your wonderful works Which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!/GOD'S GARDEN

NKJ Genesis 1:11 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so.




The Earth is God's garden and everything in it is God's

NKJ 1 Corinthians 10:26 for "the earth is the LORD's, and all its fullness."


God has put this planet in our care ever since He gave it to Adam


NKJ Genesis 2:15 Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.


We need to be conscience of what God has given to us and to take care of it for this generation and the next.


PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD HELP US TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE YOU HAVE GIVEN TO US AND NOT BE SELFISH. FOR EVERYTHING IS YOURS ANYHOW.

IN JESUS NAME

AMEN

THIS IS THE DAY THAT THE LORD HAS MADE!/PRAISE GOD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE

NKJ Genesis 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.


Everything has been created for God's good pleasure


NKJ Revelation 4:11 "You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created."

NKJ Colossians 1:16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.

NKJ Colossians 1:17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

What is the earth's response to what God has done?

NKJ Psalm 148:5 Let them praise the name of the LORD, For He commanded and they were created.

Let us praise the Lord for all He has done and receive a heart of thaksgiving so we can pass it on.

Have you told what God has done in your life today? Share that to others around you so they can receive His goodness and grace.

NKJ Psalm 150:6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!


PRAYER

FATHER GOD, I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD HELP US TO RECEIVE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE SO CAN SHARE THAT JOY TO OTHERS.

IN JESUS NAME.

AMEN.
