You are Framing Your World

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

Reading the above passage of bible scripture takes me back to creation in the book of Genesis when God created the heavens and the earth.

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said , Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good...." - Genesis 1:1-3

The word "LET" literally means to actively cause something to happen. This word calls for some action in order for something to happen.
Throughout the whole chapter of creation God spoke everything into existence. Whenever He spoke things to be, the scripture says He then saw what He had spoken, and He said it was good
This blatantly means that words have the power to put things into existence, and things that we can also visibly see.

"..the worlds/universe were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible"
By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. Psalms 33:6

This introduction above thus shows you that words have the power to create, save and also to destroy. 
God from the beginning gave man the power to use his mouth in creating his world. Adam in the book of Genesis was given the privilege to name every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.
The greatest miracle ever considered is the salvation of man - the new birth or being born again, and this was a result of our faith and our confession or words of belief spoken.

"Thou shalt be saved/Born Again" - How?
"...The word is near you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes to righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made to salvation." Romans 10:8-10

According to the passage of scripture above, the faith of the heart must be openly confessed. This is a test of the faith. Unless Christ had provided such tests as confession and obedience we could not know whether ours was really a belief of the heart. That our faith moves us to confession is to us an assurance of salvation. The whole Christian life is a confession.
For with the heart - Not the understanding only. Man believes to righteousness - So as to obtain justification. And with the mouth confession is made - So as to obtain final salvation. Confession here implies the whole of outward, as believing does the root of all inward. 
For many say that they believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, But the question here is that, have they confessed him as the Lord over their lives, to live according to His precepts by the help of the Holy Spirit?

There's power in your words to either bring you life of death

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof - Prov 18:21

The world you are living in is as a result of what you are saying and your mouth is a picture of your heart, and your words are portraits.

If you sit down to listen to someone narrate to you something he has experienced or seen, you'll begin to see pictures or photographs in your mind of whatever they're telling you.

Your words are you. And, they are incredibly important. So, when you speak, choose your words carefully because they truly reveal your loyalty or disloyalty, truth, anger, sensitivity an d much more.

More to come...

Redeemed from the Curse of the Law - 3

Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; ...... Remember that according to 1 Peter 1:18-20, we've been redeemed from the curse of the law by the blood of Jesus. We were initially not entitled to the blessings pronounced in the bible to the Israelites, being considered as gentiles or heathen, but when Christ came he removed the middle wall of separation. This meaning that  we who were considered gentiles in the flesh are now equally entitled to the covenant blessings of Abraham. 11.Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh--who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands-- 12.that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13.But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14.For He Himself is our peac

The Pride of Nazareth

Jesus and Nazareth are inseparable. Jesus spent most of his life in Nazareth. The prophets had said, "He shall be called a Nazarene" (Matthew 2:23). History would remember him as Jesus of Nazareth. Even the demons called him that (Luke 4:34). That's why this verse is one of the saddest in the Bible: And he did not do many mighty works [in Nazareth], because of their unbelief.  (Matthew 13:58) It's a great irony that the Pride of Nazareth was rejected by the Nazarenes because of pride. Can you believe this? Joseph the carpenter's son thinks he's a prophet! Well, we know his family and they're respectable enough people. But I know for a fact that he didn't receive any formal religious education. Where is he getting this teaching of his? Does he really think he's somebody great? They were deeply offended (Matthew 13:57). Why? Because he was one of them. So if he thought he was superior to them, he had better think again. Jesus knew familia

Biblical perspective of work for Employees

Employees’ responsibilities The life of Daniel as recorded in the biblical book of Daniel illustrates eight characteristics that made him a good and godly employee. The following are those eight characteristics. Work as if working for the Lord.  We actually are serving the Lord in our work; we are not serving people. In essence, we work for the Lord. If employees know and believe this, slothfulness can be greatly diminished.  Work hard.   “Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might”  (Ecclesiastes 9:10). In Scripture, hard work and diligence are encouraged; laziness is condemned. “He also who is slack in his work is brother to him who destroys”  (Proverbs 18:9).  However, hard work must be balanced by other primary priorities of life: relationship with Christ, spouse, and family. If work interferes with any of these three relationships, you are working too much. Be honest.  Employees should not give cause for their employers ever to question or doubt their hon
