DECLARATION
For [we are not]
ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto
salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to
the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from
faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. { Rom
1:16-17 KJV}
HOLY SCRIPTURE
Sabbath Meditations : YOM KIPPUR- 5785
“It is to be a statute to you forever, that in the seventh month, on the tenth day of the month, you are to afflict your souls, and do no kind of work—both the native-born and the outsider dwelling among you. For on this day atonement will be made for you, to cleanse you." -Lev 16:29-30 TLV
This Holiest Day of the Jewish calendar follows the ten days of Repentance that began last week on Rosh Hashanah. May you be sealed for a good year!
Sunday Message:
THE WORD...LET US DRAW NEAR
Hebrews 4:12, 10:22
For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.- Heb 4:12 NKJV
OPENING PRAYER
O' Mighty Father, with humble hearts we draw near on this Holy Day to worship You in fellowship and in great reverence. Thank-you for gathering us this day. With back-to-back hurricanes, Lord, we need Your strength, wisdom and love as this nation begins the process of recovery and repair. Though there has been significant loss, lives and possessions, our Faith is strong knowing that You and Your strong arm is only a whispered prayer away. Help us to draw near and stay strong in Your Holy Word through Jesus the Christ, AMEN
MESSAGE
Joh 1:1-3,14 NASB In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
From the very first moments of God's Creation of the Heavens and the Earth, His eternal invitation has been delivered to those He formed by His hands. We are to DRAW NEAR, as You bid us to COME, and Your Word is heard and felt in every part of the world. When HE speaks, it is through HIS WORD that we live, we breathe, we continue to Draw Near! The desire of our maker is to teach us, reach us, show us and grow us into the children who brings great credit to their Father, their GOD!
Jesus said, in Mat 4:4 NASB "It is written, 'MAN SHALL NOT LIVE ON BREAD ALONE, BUT ON EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD.'" By the WORD we were created. By the WORD we are sustained!
Our Lord Jesus uses the WORD and a touch to heal; When Jesus came into Peter's home, He saw his mother-in-law lying sick in bed with a fever. He touched her hand, and the fever left her; and she got up and waited on Him. When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and a touch and healed all who were ill.- Mat 8:14-16 NASB
Throughout the three year period that Jesus ministered in-the-flesh, and through His apostles, mankind learned to "Draw Near" to Him and be healed, forgiven, loved, and filled with a promise yet to come. This promise would be fulfilled in just a few more days following a crucifixion, a burial, and a raising up to Eternal life. "Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need."- Heb 4:16 NKJV
The heart of Jesus was troubled because of the many who would not draw near out of non-belief. The Father's love was in Him as He continued the Holy appeal to unbelieving ears; in Joh 12:45-46 NASB Jesus said; "He who sees Me sees the One who sent Me. "I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness. Draw Near to the LIGHT and hear THE WORD. That was His message. Jesus taught that the only doorway to the Father an eternal life is through Him. This requires confession with the mouth that Jesus is the Lord! The man who was crucified and then raised to life again on the third day. Call the name above all names, "JESUS" and the door will be opened to you.
SUMMARY/APPLICATION
Rev 1:5-8 NASB Jesus Christ is the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. It is He who loves us and released us from our sins by His blood— and He has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. BEHOLD, HE IS COMING WITH THE CLOUDS, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him; and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over Him. So it is to be. Amen.
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
CLOSING PRAYER
On this Holy day of worship our minds and hearts go forth in unison to all those impacted by violent wars and conflict. Terrible and massive storms and the resulting damage and deaths. In among the smoke, the rubble, the dark clouds of carnage, we see the mighty hand of God and recall the WORDS of HOLY SCRIPTURE of events in the last days. Now more than ever we need to share the warning. The Warning of what is to come and the imperative to DRAW NEAR to You, JESUS, and confess with the mouth, that YOU ARE LORD! With like minds and harmony of hearts we pray in Your name, AMEN
THE CALL
If you have never invited Jesus to be your Lord and savior, or, if you have in the past yet remain unsure of salvation and forgiveness of sin, Please pray with me now: Lord Jesus I need to fill a hole in my life that follows me where ever I go. I am a long-time Sinner and I CONFESS and REPENT of all my sins. I believe that You JESUS are the Lord, that you were hung on a cross and died. I believe that you were raised back to life by God, Your Father, ascended into heaven and presently sit at the right hand of The Almighty. Please come into be, clean me, take me and make me Yours and let me serve from this day forward and forever, Thank-You Jesus, AMEN
If you sincerely prayed with me, your salvation has been assured. {Rom 10:9 KJV -That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. }
