Rejoice evermore. -1 Thessalonians 5:16


Good morning and happy hump day to you! One more day until the Turkey emerges and many express their thankfulness. 


Interesting enough is that many who express their thankfulness on that day will fail to do so the remaining days of a year. As a young boy I learned a song that resonates with me even now. 


🎶 Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice🎶. The song was one of repetitiveness in tempo as well as meaning. 


As I studied the word rejoice, I found it served almost as an adverb to the verb joyful and bolsters the root word joy. The scripture above is a very simple statement found in Paul’s first letter to the church of Thessolinica. 


There were issues that if allowed to reign would destroy the many babes in Christ that were being drawn. So after first admonishing them to be patient, kind, helpful and loving and towards the middle he said Rejoice!!!


What a lesson for us all. We may be thankful for the day, the food, the fellowship, but the one thing we should have if those things were not there is joy in the Lord…


God bless you and command your day!!!

  Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither. -Luke 19:30 Good morning and tremendous Tuesday to you! During Passion Week, we witnessed the fulfillment of prophecies regarding Christ, as demonstrated by how effortlessly the disciples found the animal needed for the events. This highlights Jesus's preeminence, as he orchestrated everything in accordance with prophecy.  When Jesus directed the disciples to an unburdened beast of burden, it symbolized that the weight of his mission would be uniquely His to bear.  The choice of such an animal harks back to Jesus's humble birth in Bethlehem, and the peaceful nature of a young colt signifies his initial arrival in peace. However, it also foreshadows his eventual return as a mighty warrior and conqueror. #prayforthepeaceofIsrael God bless you and command your day!!! Your comments and questions are welcome. Co...

  They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. -1 John 4:5 Good morning and happy hump day to you!  Ever wonder why Hollywood seems to have the ear of many? The scripture above addresses this in no uncertain terms.  Hollywood weighs in on much more than the big screen. In the same tenure there are other laymen who weigh in such as professional athletes and certainly talk show hosts.  These celebrities often engage in discussions about topics well beyond their expertise, without realizing their detachment from the average person's daily life. The question is who has your ear? How are your morals formed? Are you viewing the world through the right lens?  #prayforthepeaceofIsrael  God bless you and command your day!!!

  So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. -Romans 10:17  Good morning and happy hump day to you!    Why is it important to listen? Simply because faith comes to and through your ears. In similitude fear travels the same path.  What you hear you think about and over time your thinking effects your belief system. This is why it is important to listen to the right people.  This said beloved, guard those gates, chase down what may sneak in and put it under subjection to Christ.  #prayforthepeaceofIsrael   God bless you and command your day!!!
