I am asking you/myself to take time and to first pray, and ask God to cleanse your/my heart, soul, and mind so that you/I may feed upon His Word, and not just be 'hearers' of the Word, but also 'doers'. Then read I&II Timothy and start holding the ministry of God's Word near and dear to your hearts! And remember that the Lord said in His Word ... that "ALL" the world will know HIM and WHO HE IS before He comes again ... and look at how we can talk to each other across the world in just a moment on this gadget which we are on right now called the computer. Take heart friends ... we all need to keep our lanterns lit, for our Lord will come like a 'Thief in the night!' Let's be ready and live in 'Great Expectation of His Coming!' And let us not become fearful .... but ready to share the greatness of the one and only Truth, which is our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ!!! He is the same, yesterday, today, and forevermore! May we become more in 'His likeness' each moment of every day, shedding the things we hold so tightly onto in this world, and grasping ahold of HIM and long for our real First Day of Eternity throughout forever with our Lord!
Here is **II Timothy 3 & 4:1-8**:
"Godlessness In The Last Days"
(v1)But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.(v2)People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy,(v3)without love unforgiving, slanderous, without love, unforgiving, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, treacherous, rash, conceited lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God~~ (v5)having a form of 'godliness' but denying it's power. Have NOTHING to do with them.
(v6)"There are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, (v7)always learning, but never able to acknowledge the truth. (v8)Just as Nannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth ~ men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. (v9)But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.
(v10)"You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, (v11)persecutions, sufferings ~ what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the Persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. (v12)In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, (v13)while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. (v14)But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, (v15)and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. (v16)All Scripture is God Breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, (v17)so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
(II Tim. 4:vs1-8)"In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, Who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His Kingdom, I give you this charge: (v2)Preach the Word, be prepared both in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage~with great patience and careful instruction. (v3)For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. (v4)They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. (v5)But you, keep your hea in all situations, endure harship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry. (v6)For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time has come for my departure. (v7)I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. (v8)Now there is in store for me the 'crown of righteousness,' which the Lord, the Righteous Judge, will award to me on that day~~and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for His Appearing!"
Let us all hold on tightly to the Truth ... which is our Lord Jesus Christ & His Holy Bible which are a Strength, a Light & our Greatest Hope throughout Eternity with Him!!!
**Jeremiah 32:27 "Behold, I AM the LORD, the GOD of ALL mankind! Is there ANYTHING too hard for ME?!!" ... Absolutely NOTHING is too hard for our Precious Lord & Savior!!! NOTHING!!!
May you crawl into His Great Arms and hold onto Him with ALL your might!! He is there for each and every one of us who believe that HE IS THE ONE AND ONLY LORD OF ALL!!!
Amen & Amen,
God Be With You Today & Always,
Naomi })
