Ending 2024 Blessings – Beginning 2025 Blessings
~ We Were Made to
Be Great Blessings
For Such a Time as This ~
(Ver 1.0) Hope your 2024 Christmas Celebration of the Birth of our Lord Jesus Christ was very blessed. Every day of 2024 was great in His Presence. 2024 was an amazing year. It could clearly be called a victorious year for the Lord. But it really depends upon whose side you were on. Satan has tried to take down and out the righteous. But only the evil ones and their pride filled agendas were lowered. God’s light is shining forth with great brilliance and God gets all the Glory. His Word, Blood and Name will prevail over the devil’s agenda. Jesus Christ is Lord no matter what the devil attempts against His Church.
If God has done anything great for you in 2024, it would be an exciting blessing for everyone if you would share it to encourage others. If you believe that you have not had a victorious year in 2024, then it might be time to change and prepare to expect the year 2025 to be better. Become pregnant with the Word of God in your spirit, plant it to grow your faith, and then begin to expect God’s promises, His Great Love and His goodness to happen to you in due time.
What many people do is to focus upon the wrong things. Too many of us are focused upon our problems, trials and tests. Maybe you also noticed that it has been like a giant storm was happening all around us since 2020, this storm appeared to be bringing us only great destruction and evil. Yet God was still doing great, powerful and supernatural things constantly even during the storm and many people who only were focused upon the evil missed God’s goodness.
If anyone asked God to work in their lives and expected Him to do it, then God was faithful regardless of what we saw or did not see Him do. Please do not be offended, but “IF” you believe God did nothing for you in 2024, you are just wrong. I can guarantee you that He did all that you allowed Him to do. Uh oh?
You mean people can limit what a sovereign God can do? Absolutely! Either we do not see what He did, don’t remember his faithfulness in the past, or we were just actually never in faith and expecting Him to do anything. All of our fears, worries, and doubts place limitations upon what God is able to do for us. There are many reasons how people don’t receive God’s best. But we all have failed before, and God is always there to help us change what we need to change to cooperate with His will.
God certainly did great things in 2024 if you saw them. Take for instance a bullet missing Trump’s head by less than 1/8 of an inch and only piercing his ear instead of his funeral taking place. Praise the Lord! Then look at the election. More enlightened and awakened Christians turned out than almost any time in history. Praise the Lord! These are just two major things out of many millions of things that the Lord has been doing in 2024.
One thing that the Lord has been teaching me this year, is to let Him help us more in the very little things of life. Somethings we get too self-centered and think we are in more control than we are. How often have you lost a minor thing like a screw? It was only one small screw, and it dropped somewhere. Did you bother to ask God to show you where it went? I have been doing things like this more and more and I am beginning to realize that God does know where it is, and He loves us so much that He does what is necessary to lead us how and where to find it. This is how amazing God is.
Here is what I am expecting in the next year. I expect God to continue to put on a show for us. I am expecting many more people to be saved, healed and delivered from Satan’s kingdom. I am expecting greater miracles signs and wonders from a God who is able to do exceedingly more than we could ever ask or think to ask. I expect more victories for the righteous and more defeats for the devil and his kingdom.
I am a very firm believer that the church of Jesus Christ will be taken out of this world very soon, but only after winning and being victorious over the devil. This means Satan’s kingdom will lose a lot of people and God’s kingdom will continue to increase. Always remember the prophecy of the Apostle Paul when he wrote in Romans 16:20 “The God of Peace will bruise Satan under your feet shortly”.
Thank you very much for being a faithful reader and subscriber of the Advanced Study of the Word of the Living God. Also, thank you for your faithful prayers. Without the prayers of God’s people for each other many people could have experienced worse things. We need to give thanks to God for all the really bad things that never happened to us in 2024. Remember, God says in Psalm 34:19, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers us from them all”.
Let us keep our eyes upon Jesus, looking forward, praying and believing for the God’s best together in 2025. Let us never forget this verse:
1Co 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
What an amazing verse this has become since the election of Donald J Trump. Would you put it past God in giving us a double meaning written in this verse? This will be the “Last Term” of President Trump. This seems to be a hidden clue in the Word of God that could strongly indicate the Lord’s return could happen in the next 4 years from 2025 to 2029. Wouldn’t that be amazing? Hopefully this should help motivate people to witness more and tell people about Jesus.
May God continue to bless you and enrich you with the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in Christ (Eph 1:17). If you have not made Jesus your Lord now is the best time possible to make this decision. You will certainly never regret it throughout eternity.
Happy Thanksgiving – 2024
Happy Thanksgiving brothers, sisters, friends and family. This is a glorious time to be alive before Jesus returns to take us out of the world very soon. Hope and pray that you are all doing well and will remember to take time on this day to taste and see how good the Lord is to us all. Here are our spiritual food verses for today. It comes from Psalms 100:
Psalm 100:1 – A Psalm of praise. Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.
Psalm 100:2 – Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
Psalm 100:3 – Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Psalm 100:4 – Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
Psalm 100:5 – For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
What a blessing it is to have the Word of God to feed on every day. Especially today in the USA, a day that we celebrate as a special time for increased emphasis and reminder for giving thanks, called Thanksgiving. Job 23:12 says, “I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food”. Therefore, as we recall the great and mighty works of our Almighty God, make Him your priority in this day and feed on His Words first, for they are spiritual life to everyone that finds them (Prov 4:22).
Did you notice what Psalm 100 said? God instructed us to come before His presence with singing, by entering His gates with thanksgiving. After everything the Lord has done for us, who will remember His great works and be happy and thankful enough to obey Him? Being thankful is a choice today and every day. There is always something to give Him thanks for.
Are we blessed to know God? Are we blessed to have His Word? Are we blessed even more to have His Spirit living inside us? Are we blessed to have the ability to praise Him? Are we blessed because we are not in the darkness and going to hell? These alone are enough to shout an eternity for.
Let’s praise and thank Him for the opportunity to live in His presence. Thank Him that no matter what our circumstances are, we can depend on Him. For His Word has said, “For He will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5). But never forget the next verse that teaches us how to release our faith to release His promises in our lives:
Hebrews 13:6 – So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Hebrews 13:6 instructs us to open our mouth and say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not fear what man can do to me”. God is teaching us that we must come into agreement with His spoken words and accept them by speaking them. Because He has said to us He is with us, we must say He is helping us. This is what faith is, it is not based upon what your enemy is doing to you.
In these days of transition from great darkness and lies to increasing light and truth, let us keep our eyes upon God who is our source of all Light and Truth. Fo God has also said “While we look not at the things that are seen, but we rather focus on the unchanging God and His Word” (2 Corinthians 4:18), we can trust Him to do what He has said according to 2 Corinthians 4:18, and Numbers 23:19.
What are you thankful for today? How many things can you list that God has done for you? You may be going through some tough times, but rather than focusing on what is not good, look to your source of everything good. For He has said, “Every good and perfect gift comes down from Him” (James 1:17). He is our source for every need. He is our supplier of every good gift.
Look back at Psalm 100 verse 5. God proclaims His goodness, and His mercy is always present, and they will never end. That alone should give you hope to begin your day giving thanks to Him. Let us purpose in our heart to sing blessings of thanksgiving unto the Lord today. This is important every day, not just today. Yet we are being reminded by a Holiday that we should do everything to make a Holy Day. We can do this by showing someone that does not know Him, His Great Love!
For those in the USA, Happy Thanksgiving. For those in the rest of the world every day should be a time to give thanks to God. He is not finished with any of us, and He will watch over His Word to perform them in our lives. But we must choose to continue to hear His voice and be led by His Spirit to cooperate with His works.
We love you! God loves you! And the best is yet to come! His name is Jesus Christ and if you do not know Him, now is a great time to receive His free gift of salvation.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Merry Christmas – 2021
(Ver 1.0) Celebrating the coming into the world of God in the flesh. He came from heaven to a womb, to be born in the city of David. He was laid in a manager. He grew to be a man and began to minister to his people as a humble servant. He did many great and mighty miracles for three and a half years. Then he was hung on a cross, where He died for us all to save us from hell. His body was laid in a tomb for three days and then He arose from the dead victorious over death, hell and the grave. His work gave us all the same hope by placing our complete trust and faith in Him.
Luke 2:7 – And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone from Agapegeek!
JESUS IS COMING SOON!
BE READY!
