Daily Journal Entry – Free From Bondage
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” – Galatians 5:1 NKJV
Praise the Lord! So let me get this straight. We are sinners yet Jesus loved us so much that He was willing to lay His life down and, through His blood, seal the New Covenant for us? That we may live life and live more abundantly? YES! Wow, talk about a great gift. Thank You Jesus!!
Free yourself from bondage in every area of your life. Call on the Lord Jesus and invite Him to cleanse you from all unrighteousness. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will guide your paths. It doesn’t matter what sin(s) you are struggling with, He can, and will, deliver you from all of them. Just because you got caught up in the wrong things doesn’t mean you can’t get out of them! Free yourself from bondage TODAY. Leave the old you behind and embrace the NEW YOU! “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” – 2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV
Thank You Lord for loving us so deeply that you prearranged our salvation through Jesus Christ before our creation. Lord we give our lives to you & trust that as our decision maker You are guiding us into our calling, through which You have already prepared the way. Help us Lord to stay the course and grow into the people you have created us to be. Receiving all the blessings you have for us TODAY, in Jesus Name. Amen.
You Have Been Freed,
Ron

Daily Journal Entry – There Is No One Righteous
“But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.” – Galatians 3:22 NKJV
We have all been born into sin, therefore the Bible says in Romans 3:23, “We have all sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.” We are also reminded in the Bible that there is no one righteous, no not one. However, Romans 6:23 also goes on to say, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.” I sure am glad Jesus paid the price for our sin, aren’t you? He willingly gave His life, passing on all His righteousness, to those who believe on Him by Faith, in exchange for our uncleanness. Talk about a great deal! Without Christ we are lost, but with Him we have been saved and walk in covenant with the Lord our God! Praise Jesus.
Believe! “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” – Romans 10:17 NKJV Read your Bible more than you watch television. Attend every church sponsored event as possible. Remain rooted in and around other believers who are also hungry to learn more about Jesus & the truth of His ministry. The Bible is clear in Matthew 7:13-14 NIV ““Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” Live according to God’s word for it is nothing but truth and truth shall make you free.
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” – John 14:6 NIV
We praise You Lord for everything! Your word, Your Love, Your Grace, Your Mercy & most of all, Your Sacrifice. “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” – John 3:16 NIV Jesus died on the cross and paid the ultimate price for us. We are saved by grace, Your Grace, and grace alone. For this we are eternally thankful. Walking by faith in Jesus Name, Amen.
He Paid The Price For YOU!

The Lord Shows No Favoritism

Daily Journal Entry – He Loves Us All
“But from those who seemed to be something—whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no man—for those who seemed to be something added nothing to me.” – Galatians 2:6 NKJV
In this world there can be found a lot of pride. We seem to believe that the more money & power we have in the natural somehow puts us up on a pedestal and makes us of greater importance. However, God does not show any more favoritism, love, grace or mercy to one who has worldly influence & success versus another whom does not. Our God is a loving God and we have ALL been created in His image. Regardless as to who you are, or what you have done in your life, His law & promises are of equal value to ALL!
Do not allow the culture of this world to influence & build up your ego (Edging God Out). Die to self and allow Christ, through the Holy Spirit, to live in you. There is no greater thing which you can accomplish on your own no matter how successful you may think you are, or are not. Be humble and know that all your blessing are of Him and no matter the person you become in this temporal life experience, never think you are better than your fellow brother.
Father, thank you for Your fairness in offering us ALL salvation through Christ Jesus our Lord. That no matter who we are or what we accomplish in this life, Your Love, Grace, Mercy & Eternal Home through Christ Jesus are available & received for all who believe. We are blessed, In Jesus Name.
God Truly Loves You,
Ron
God Gives Generously

Daily Journal Entry – Share Your Blessings
“Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing of the Lord your God which He has given you.” – Deuteronomy 16:17 NKJV
Everything we have has been given to us from the Lord our God. From every little thing to larger, more excellent blessings, all of it has been given to us by Him. To receive is a wonderful feeling, however even greater than that is to give. We are to give joyfully, willingly & without expectation of a reward. As it is written, all shall give as able according to the blessings we have already received from the Lord. The more we give willingly & out of love, the more blessings the Lord will pour out on us. We can never out give God.
Acknowledge and show appreciation for everything you have been blessed with. As you have received, give of your blessings & share all the good that God has done for you with others. Luke 6:38 NIV – “Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”
Father, everything we have is because of You. How blessed & thankful we are for your abundant provisions. Lord as you continue to bless us, we will pass those blessings on to others. Just as you are generous in your giving, I pray we also will give generously, as you have enabled us to do so. We are blessed to be a blessing. In Jesus Name!
You Are Abundantly Blessed,
Ron

1 “Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;
4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope.
5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.”
