In Joshua 1:5 God says: "I will be with you".
We can in the natural only do what we have power to do. When God asks us to do something that is more than what we are can do in our power, He will do the rest we can do.
Jesus said in Acts 1:8: "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you and you will be my witnesses to the end of the earth".
Traditionally the church trust scholarship, logic, genius and philosophy's. But God equipped all of us. The Apostle Paul says in 1Cor 1:27: "God has chosen the foolish things.." The real growth in the body of believers comes from the simple message of the Gospel touching all classes of people. Our human wisdom says preach the Gospel through the wisdom of words. But the Spirit of God will let the Word grow not human wisdom that try and get people to take the side of Jesus, trying to persuade people. We are not lawyers to defend the Gospel to try and get the favour of Jesus to people, no the Word says we must be witnesses!!
We do not have to argue and plead the case of Jesus, no like witnesses on the stand in the court room we must speak the truth saying what we know.
Acts 2:32: "This Jesus God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses"
We were not witnesses at the actual Resurrection but the Resurrection has transformed us. We must proclaim the evidence and we watch the power of God come down, as people receive and believe the good news of Jesus Christ.
Be Blessed in Jesus name.

Free from the law of sin and death
Just a short snippet for today. I haven't been publishing anything for a while but here we go, a new day a new beginning.
There is a place called “there” which is the secret place where God dwells, the Holy of Holies where the throne of Grace and the seat of Mercy is. There is no evil temper, no irritability, no lies in the secret place. All evil is swept away while one is dwelling in the presence of the Almighty; in the covering of God. Even the best of humanity, if from the devil, it is not good, and cannot remain in God's presence. Nothing unholy can remain in His presence. That is why God send His son Jesus to destroy ALL the works of the devil (1 John 3:8).
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.Romans 8:3
God sent Jesus in the mightiness of His power. He send Him in flesh and in the midst of flesh, He condemned it. The law of the Spirit of life was destroying all that must be destroyed. Dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God, we then are above all in Him: He that is above all and through all and in you all.This is a fact, not in human nature, but in God. It is the gift of God from Heaven. WE belong to the new creation, and we are in a wonderful place in life. It is a life free from the law of sin and death. Can we keep ourselves there? GOD can keep us there.He never forgets to keep me.My father has many dear children;But He never forgets to keep me. Has He forgotten you? No! He cannot forget. God has much in store for you; you are far from being out of His thoughts.
