Welcome to the New Testament! The 4 gospels of Jesus tell us the good news about who Jesus was, and what Jesus did for us. They are all 4 very different in the writing styles and emphasis, but together these 4 books give us an amazing picture of Jesus, and who He was. We should be continually reading the gospels, and following the life of Jesus.
The 12 books of the prophets are the last books of the Old Testament. The prophets were the ones who spoke for God in this time, to the people. They were a call for God's people to repent, and turn back to the Lord. And they also spoke of the Messiah who would come be the deliverer and savior of Israel.
The Wisdom Books should be our daily source for help in every situation of life. They teach us what to do in our: relationships, finances, work-ethic, anger, speech, time, who you listen to in life. From Job to Song of Solomon, these books give us everything we to live a godly life, and be wise in the decisions we make.
The 12 History books show us how Israel was established in the Promise Land, and how they eventually built the temple, where the presence of God was. But also tells of the many struggles they had along the way, the good and the bad kings, and how God is patient and merciful. These are exciting books, filled with romance, wars, betrayal, mystery, adventure, action. But Jesus come and give us access to God by His own blood, and now we can go boldly into His presence.
We will tour the first 5 books of the Bible, called the books of Moses. They inform us of the beginning of everything, and then how things fell apart. Then tells us about the covenant God made with us and His redemption plan, that still impacts the world today. Then tells of God's love and power for those who trust Him, and how to respond to His presence in your life. And how through obedience you can be prepared to enter into your Promise Land. It is the start to God's amazing plan, an...
The Bible is the most amazing book ever written. It has been challenged for thousands of years, but there has never been anything false found in it. The bible is truth, and it stands alone as proof of it's power, and the telling of the story of God's great love for us. God and His Word will answer every question, so be bold to ask, and seek for answers in the Bible.
We need to train in the combination of work and rest. We need to be willing to work, work hard, give your best. We need to train to give effort daily to be your best. We also need to take a day to rest, recover, and spend time worshiping God and learning. When you work right, you will be able to rest right.
A spiritual discipline we need to train is the mindset of stewardship. We need to learn the difference between ownership and stewardship. God is the creator and owner of everything. So all you are, and all you have, belongs to God. Nothing you have is really 'yours' -- God is the owner, we are the stewards. We need to ask, "Lord, what do you want me to do, with what you have given to me?"
A Spiritual discipline that we need to train is how we use our words. Don't speak death, doubt, fear, unbelief, anger. But you can choose to speak life, faith, blessing, favor, truth. With your words, you can build up and not tear down. You can steer your whole life in the way you want it to go, by training yourself to control your words.
A Spiritual discipline we need to train in, is the area of serving others, and serving in church. Giving of ourselves in our time, our talents and abilities, is what God desires from each of us. Serve God's by serving others, and follow the example of Jesus - "pick up the towel" and serve one another.
One of the Spiritual disciplines we need to be training in, is praying in your heavenly language, inspired by the Holy Spirit. This is one of the greatest gifts that the Lord has given to help us pray, and it is available for every believer. It is God's way to give us an advantage in life.
There are spiritual disciplines we need in our life to train to become happy, stable, fruitful, blessed, so we can be a blessing. We need to spend time to Study the Word daily. And spend time in prayer, talking with our God, daily.
When you are in training, you need the Holy Spirit as your trainer to help you. He will help you to develop spiritual disciplines, and set your goals. Have a fear of the Lord, love His commands, and a hunger for the Word.
You need to have a training mentality your spiritual life. If you try and fail, you will quit. But failure is part of the training process, when you fail you will get up and keep going. Set your spiritual goals, stay consistent, disciplined, and focused -- and with God's grace and your effort, you will get great results in your life.
We should make hearing from the Lord daily, a priority in our lives. You do not earn your right to hear from God by your actions, you would never be good enough to stand before Him. But God loves you and wants to speak to you, you can hear from God. He has called you into a relationship with Him, through the blood of Jesus. Learn who you are, and who you are called to be.
When you hear from God, you need to make sure you manage well what you feel the Lord has told you. How you hear is important for you to be able to obey what God says to you. Humble yourself and submit to God, and He will bless you.
There are different filters you can use to be sure you are hearing from God. God's Word, godly advice, peace in your heart, or signs. God wants you to be confident in your relationship and that you can know His leading for you.
As a child of God, you can hear from your Heavenly Father. He wants to speak to your heart, and guide your life. So you need to be confident of who you are, and what your identity is as a believer - you are a Child of God! So you can hear from God.
God is speaking to you, but hearing from God is something that you make the adjustments to do. What you do each day determines how well you hear from the Lord. These principles are the way you put yourself in a place to be hearing from God in your life.
God wants to be the one you serve, but He also desires to be your friend. You need to take time in His presence daily, and your friendship will become more and more real to you. You can have a relationship with the Lord that is so real, that He can become your best friend in life.
