Blueprint of Faith

The bible teaches us that God our Father is a compassionate God, Jesus is full of compassion and that you and I, as new citizens in the kingdom of God, are required to be just as gracious to others.    Exodus 33:19 And He said, I Myself will make all My goodness pass before you and will proclaim the name of the Lord before you, and I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show compa...

This morning's rant, I ask the question, "what is your deceleration in your current situation." The bible is clear that you and I must declare something in our situation. God the father did it in Genesis 1, Jesus did it in Luke chapter 4, Jairus did it in Luke 5:23, the woman with the issue of blood did it in Luke 5:28. Job 22:28 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be estab...

This morning rant is about the remnant of God's people. This current state is visibly sick and without power because the leaders are sick.  Isaiah 1:9 If the Lord of hosts had not left us a few survivors, we should have been as Sodom and become like Gomorrah.  Romans 11:5 So too at the present time there is a remnant, chosen by grace.  Christian Cafe ChristianCafe.com is successful in matchin...

This morning's rant is about the art of being content. The bible has a lot to say about this subject. Today we talk about it. Philippians 4:11-12 11 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. 12 I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger,...

This morning's rant encourages those of you who are a little discouraged. The bible tells us in Isaiah 57:15 that God encourages the discouraged. My advice is not to be like the children of Israel in Numbers 32:9  For when they went up unto the valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, that they should not go into the land which Jehovah had given...

In this episode, I look at three of Jesus' offices and how it relates to you and me. Most of us think of Jesus as meek going to his death, but that was just a necessary moment in time that God the Father had ordained to happen because of his love for us. But Jesus is so much more.    Isaiah 33: 22 For Jehovah is our judge; Jehovah is our lawgiver; Jehovah is our king; He will save us.  John 5...

This morning's rant is about “God’s Supply Chain.” Looking at the news, you and I could lose our minds if we depend on the world's supply chain. According to them, there's a shortage of everything, but as Christians, we have a different supply chain because we're in a separate kingdom than they, and we have another supply chain. God is our supply chain, according to the bible....

This morning's rant is about some of the spiritual blessings that God has provided for us, his children.  Ephesians 1:1-14 Spiritual Blessings in Christ 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, 4just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him...

This morning I continue my rant to inform you that this is a rigged game. The devil goes around "like a roaring lion." God uses the character of the devil to make our character better. Our responsibility is to praise God in all things.  Romans 5:3-4 3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and cha...

This morning my rant is to inform you that this is a rigged game. The devil goes around "like a roaring lion." God uses the character of the devil to make our character better. Our responsibility is to praise God in all things. Romans  5:3-5 3 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character,...

The bible tells us that God wants to have a personal relationship with creation; that is why you and I are called "sons of God" or the "children of God." Here in the following scripture is a perfect example of that relationship of a loving father with his child and the benefits that the child and the father from that relationship.    Psalm 37:23-24 The LORD directs the steps of...

This morning's rant is about having our relationship with God and some of the benefits of that relationship.  Psalm 37:23-24 The LORD directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand. Psalm 33:8  I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye up...

My rant is about the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer.  Here are just a few. a. The Holy Spirit can be grieved. b. The Holy Spirit is our Helper c. The guidance of the Holy Spirit d. Scriptures that show that the Holy Spirit is God. e. The Holy Spirit gives us wisdom f. The Spirit is an awesome gift giver. g. He is living inside of believers.  1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Do you not know that you...

This morning's rant is about the mind being set on spiritual things.  We choose whether to set our minds on the flesh or spiritual things. The decision is ours to make.     Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.  Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,...

This morning's rant is about how God will do a new thing in your life. Isaiah 43:19 See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Truth Becomes Her To find engaging Bible stories for girls that would help them form a meaningful connection to Script Memory Cross A new and exciting Gospel tract used to t...

The bible teaches us that God our father is a deliver. He desires to and can deliver us from any situation we find ourselves in. He specializes in "making a way where there seems to be no way." Psalm 18:17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, And from those who hated me, for they were too mighty for me. Psalms 40:17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my hel...

This morning's rant is on Joyfulness. The bible tells us that the JOY OF THE LORD IS OR STRENGTH. If you're not living from a space of joyfulness, you're living from an area of weakness. Philippians 4:4  Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I will say, Rejoice.  Romans 12:12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.  Nehemiah 8:10  Then he said to them, “Go yo...

This morning I rant about the justice of God.  Job 34:12 Surely, God will not act wickedly, And the Almighty will not pervert justice. Isaiah 30:18 Therefore the Lord longs to be gracious to you, And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the Lord is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him. Psalm 9:7-8 But the Lord abides forever; He has established His thro...

This morning I rant about being zealous for God.  Psalm 69:9 For zeal for Your house has consumed me, and the reproaches of those who reproach you have fallen on me.  Isaiah 59:17 He put on righteousness as a breastplate and a helmet of salvation on his head; he put on garments of vengeance for clothing and wrapped himself in zeal as a cloak.  Israel365 Connect the many lovers of Israel from all a...

This morning's rant is about waiting on the Lord. Psalm 27:14 Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord. Psalm 37:7 Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Lamentations 3:25 The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, To the person who seeks Hi...

God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are faithful to us as new citizens in the Kingdom of God.  God's love is legendary, and so is his faithfulness. Every page of the bible shows the faithfulness of God, our father, Jesus the Christ, and the Holy Spirit in the lives of his children.   Lamentations 3:22-23 22 Because of the Lord’s great love, we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. 23...

This morning I concludes  my rant about Sonship Vs Slave Hebrews 12:1–11. 3 Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted. 4 In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipli...

This morning I continue my rant about Sonship Vs Slave Galatians 4:8-9 8 Formerly, when you did not know God, you were enslaved to those that by nature are not gods. 9 But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?  Ephesians 5:8 for you were forme...

This morning rant is a continuation of  Son-ship vs. Slave.  Galatians 3:23-29 Galatians 3:23-29 23 Now, before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. 24 So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. 25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for in Christ J...

This morning rant, Sonship vs. Slave.  Galatians 3:23-29 Galatians 3:23-29 23 Now before faith came, we were held captive under the law, imprisoned until the coming faith would be revealed. 24 So then, the law was our guardian until Christ came, in order that we might be justified by faith. 25 But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a guardian, 26 for in Christ Jesus you are all sons o...
