Trained By The Master


To learn how to preform a job we must learn the job and when there is learning to be done, there must be a qualified instructor.
We can not preform a job that we are not skilled to do, we may already be given the tools to use, but they mean nothing if we are not trained to know what each tool does...
Our Father in Heaven tells us to serve him and love him with all our heart, all our mind, soul.

Matt. 22:37
Jesus said unto him, THOU SHALT LOVE THE LORD THY GOD WITH ALL THY HEART, AND WITH ALL THY SOUL, AND WITH ALL THY MIND.


He also tells us to train our children in the way they should go.

Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it
.

We are all God's children and he wants to train us in the way we should go.
When we come to know Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, we are new creatures, we are born again, we are babies in Christ ( spiritually that is.)
We are now ready to start our training program in Christ Jesus....

1 Peter 2:2
As newborn babes, desire, the sincere milk of the word that ye may grow thereby.


We must humbly submit unto God that he can train us, remembering we have the tools we need for the job, which is (Christ our Lord and the Holy Spirit dwelling within us.) But we must allow ourselves time to be trained, we must listen to our teacher.
We sometimes think we are ready to teach and train, when we still need teaching.

Hebrews 5:12
For when for the times ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.

Hebrews 5:14
But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.


We must be taught God's ways, for our thoughts and our ways are not the thoughts and ways of God....

Isaiah 55:8
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord
.

We must submit ourselves unto God's authority, we must communicate with God, ( in prayer), we must dedicate ourselves to him and through the reading and studying of his word, this is where we learn (The Word Of God.)
We begin to grow in our ability, we grow strong, we begin to preform the works of God, His plans and purpose for our lives.
The more we spend time with the Master of our profession, " Our Lord " the more we will understand and grow in strength and wisdom, knowledge of the work God wants us to fulfill.
We must speak with our Master everyday and ask him to show us his plans for us that day.
We must never start a work that God has not ask us to do, trying to do the work of our own hand, glorifing ourselves, we will surely fail. (Trust God's Leading.)
We do the work of our Lord...
We will be skilled and equiped for the work..

John 14:12
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.


If we stick to the Master's Plan it can not fail.
We will only learn when we seek him dilently, we can not be trained if we are not willing to listen and understand with our whole heart.
Wanting to do things our way will leave us desolate. (empty.)

Follow The Master's Leading......

Phil. 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Blessings and Thanksgivings


Our lips should continuously be thanking our Father and Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
We take so much for granted and often forget from where our blessings came from.
We do not stop and realize we are blessed by our very life itself, we would not even exist if our Father had not have formed us and called us into his presence.

1 Peter 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

Calling us into his Glorious plan, to share in his eternal life, a life never ending, never to be separated from our Lord.
We should be so thankful for his Grace and Mercy that he bestows upon us each and everyday.

PS.23:6
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

The one and only God ( Creator of all things in Heaven and Earth,) chose us and created us to love and to input his righteousness within us,
Thankful for God's Precious Son Christ Jesus, whom he sent to bare our sins, our shame, our sorrows, and our sickness.....

Isaiah 53:5
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities:
the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.


Thankful for the joy and the peace he gives unto us.

Giving thanks unto the Father that though we are so undeserving and so very unworthy, we are made worthy by the blood of the Lamb, Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Giving Thanks unto the Lord for our salvation through his obedience and the suffering our Lord endured, and for becoming our High Priest that sits at the right hand of our Father to make intersession for us.

1 John 2:1
My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

Giving Thanks always unto our Lord Jesus for paying a debt he did not owe, (our debts he did pay) and forgiving us our debts, giving unto us our daily bread to strengthen us and the bread of life, The Living Word Of God to defeat the enemy thereof.

I say Holy, Holy To My God, God of the up most highest....
God of My Salvation, Who Is My Redeemer, My Protector, My Comforter and My Guiding Light out of the darkness.
SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD....

Praise His Holy Name.

Laws And consequences Of Breaking Them

Do you ever think you have done something and gotten off Scott free? Tempting to maybe try
something else, because no one will find out.
Don't let yourself fall for this deception.
We must live and follow the laws of the land.
We have laws that are established for order and to protect us.
Laws established by leaders, those in authority, from the president, to congress, ect....
Where ever and whenever new laws are written and passed, we must learn the laws and live by them, if we do not, there are consequences for our actions.
Weather it be from speeding, ( tickets, or losing our privilege to drive), or crimes against one another, there will be repercussions for our actions, ( from fines paid, parole, community service,
or time spent in jail, or maybe even life or death sentences, depending on which law is broken.
Even if it seems we get away with everything and no one ever finds out, I assure you there is one that sees all that you or I are doing or all we will ever do, Judge of all, King of Kings, Lord Of Lords, we stand naked before him, there is nothing hidden from his view.

Hebrews 4:13
Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

We must live by God's laws. We must follow his commands.

Galatians 5:14
For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR AS THYSELF.

If we obey God we will not break the laws of the land, if we love as Christ told us to, we will not
steal, kill, commit adultery, bare false witness ( lie), etc, against the ones we love, we will not lift up ourselves against them.
We can stand before our judge ( God our Father ) with our lawyer ( Our High Priest Jesus Christ) against our prosecutor ( Satan).
We will hear our Father say , that's my child, set them free, no pain, no death, to more chains to hold us, sentence served at Calvary, Debt Paid In Full BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB ( JESUS CHRIST ) has paid the price for our debts, ( our sins).
Call upon the Name of the Lord Jesus , let him deliver you from the wages of sins, he will give unto you a life sentence, Life Eternal, life everlasting, accept his gift of salvation, and follow his commands and Christ will set you free.

John 8:36
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
