"Intake"

“Intake…”

Blessings Folk!

Our local examination of the Word of God resumes this week.

Come and join us.

Mondays, 5:30 p.m.

or

Tuesdays, 9 a.m.

You can join at any time. There is no need for “previous courses”, etc.

Our current study will be “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”, an examination of the last chapters of 2 Kings, 2 Chronicles and Zephaniah (the one lesson on Zephaniah is much needed today&hellipWinking

We then will move into Matthew - Part 1 and Part 2.

We meet at Jubilee @ Victory Park.

Let me layout the “pink elephant in the room” in Christendom.

Most who profess to be religious do not know the Lord.
Most who profess to be “born-again” do not know the Word of the Lord.
Most who are true believers are at best babes living off of milk.

We are told to pursue solid food…

1 Corinthians 3

1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ.
2 I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able,
3 for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?

Hebrews 5

12 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.
13 For everyone who partakes only of milk is not accustomed to the word of righteousness, for he is an infant.
14 But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil.

We have a tremendous blessing in the Word.
We have the Word in more “versions” and translations than ever.
We have the Word available in a multitude of formats...written, audio, video, mp3, mp4…

But, the sad reality is that most true believers do not intake the Word.

Most do not turn to the Lord to…
...learn of Him
...to know Him
...to seek wisdom
...to seek knowledge
...to seek illumination
...to seek strength and power
I could continue on…

We must immerse ourselves in the Lord…
...in His Word
...in His Spirit
...abiding in Him.

Therefore, get in the Word.

You need it today.
You are really gonna need it in the near future…

Another quick announcement…

I am beginning, this week, a totally revolutionary way of learning to play the piano.
Contact me if you have ever been interested in playing...you are never too old!

Blessings!
