Our ministry is to reach out to the world with the Good News of Jesus Christ and to help believers be equipped with a solid knowledge of the Word of God, the Bible, and be encouraged to apply it in every aspect of their daily lives. There are simple truths for these complex times to help people live in a way that brings real spiritual victory to them and more importantly, through the Lord Jesus Christ, glory to God our Father.
 
Jeremiah 9:24
"...Let him who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am YHWH who exercises lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness on earth; for I delight in these things," declares the Lord.

To start with, perhaps we should examine ourselves as we recall that God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong. And that would help us to remember that it is also written there that he who boasts is to boast in the Lord. {1Cor.27,31}

To connect the dots, so to speak, we should note that as the Lord spoke today's verse through the prophet Jeremiah, He had said, 'Let not a wise man boast of his wisdom, and let not the mighty man boast of his might, let not a rich man boast of his riches.' {Jer.9:23} That would surely not bode well for most politicians at any time in any land.

The Lord's plan is that we should humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt us at the proper time. (1Pt.5:6} When we follow that plan, His instruction, then be assured that those who do their work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, will receive their reward from the Lord just as Paul wrote. {Col.3:23-24} That will not be too difficult at all when we stop being fixed on ourselves but rather choose to fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. He who went to the cross for the joy set before Him! {Heb.12:2}

And so, we are to exalt the Lord, our God and King, praising His name for ever and ever. {Ps.145:1} What is difficult would be to boast about ourselves and what we have done while at the very same time we are proclaiming the excellencies of Jesus, who has called us out of darkness and into His marvelous light. {1Pt.2:9} We can however, and should, tell of the great things He has done in our lives—things about us that are truly in fact all about Him—things that are called testimonies.

“And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night. And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even unto to death.”
(Revelation 12:10-11)

TELL SOMEBODY TODAY THAT JESUS LOVES THEM

The Prophet Amos - Part 22 - The Great Famine
The Lord said that He would send a famine on the land, not for bread or water but for hearing the Word of God. It appears that these are those days as people are dying for all eternity from starvation, having chosen to reject the Bread of Life and the Living Waters. Thank the the Lord that those who hunger and thirst for righteousness shall be satisfied.
