Knowing JESUS Daily Devotional | December 24, 2019. Enrich and Sustain your relationship with Jesus reading our daily devotional – I rejoiced greatly [ delighted ] that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father – 2 John 1:4
Beloved, right from the outset of creation, God your loving Father in heaven had unchanging strong passion to walk with humanity, the crown of His creation.
Genesis 3:8 And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden
Although God had this strong unchanging passion, yet He alone set the pace and conditions for walking with humanity. Only those who walk in agreement with His conditionality benefits immensely from it.
Amos 3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Adam and Eve failed to sustain their walk with God, but others like Enoch, Noah, Abraham submitted wholeheartedly with these conditions and benefitted unusually walking with God.
See their walking with Him and the unusual benefits.
Enoch
Gen 5:21 — 24 And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah: And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
Noah.
Genesis 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
Abraham.
Genesis 17:1 And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
Gen 22:15 — 18 And the angel of the Lord called unto Abraham out of heaven the second time, And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice.
Beloved very very unfortunately, God extended this same unusual privilege to others but they declined and rejected the offer.
I am persuaded you shall not be like them and because of this, you shall be unusually Blessed here and hereafter in Jesus name.
Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
Beloved, because of the desire of the blessed Holy Spirit to facilitate your benefiting in the privileges of walking with God, He gave you this exhortation. See it yourself.
2 John 1:4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
Walking with God simply means living by the totality of the truth revealed in the scriptures without adding to or diminishing from them.
Doing this shall guarantee your desired earthly success and also blissful eternity with God. These shall surely be your portion in Jesus mighty name.
Joshua 1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
Never ever add or remove from the scriptures like the manners of the multitude of nominal churchgoers, globally. They pick and choose what is convenient for them in the Bible and flagrantly reject others to their undoing.. You must not be like them.
Deu 4:1 — 2 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers giveth you. Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
Deuteronomy 12:32 What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.
Pro 30:5 — 6 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
Beloved, the Lord expects you in particular to be doing His entire revealed truth in the Bible and then teach others in your world of influence, beginning from your home.
Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the Lord, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.
James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
Malachi 2:6 The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
I rejoice with you because you have the reputation of being wise. So remain wise till Christ comes, doing this word below.
Hosea 14:9 Who is wise, and he shall understand these things? prudent, and he shall know them? for the ways of the Lord are right, and the just shall walk in them: but the transgressors shall fall therein.
Dearly beloved, it should be your resolve to be like believers in Bible days. They were excited in their wholehearted obedience to the entirety of scriptures. This was because Jesus Christ our Lord and savior was the living, spoken and written word of God.
In addition to this, He also was the truth personified. See all of these yourself.
Jn 1:1 — 2 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.
1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Dearly beloved, because the blessed Holy Spirit wants you in particular to follow their exemplary lifestyle, He gave you this exhortation. See it.
2 John 1:4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
This should never poise any difficulty for you because our Lord Jesus Christ, Himself did the same thing, before passing the teachings to His followers of all ages and you in particular.
Acts 1:1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
See what our Lord did and taught.
Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Mat 5:19 — 20 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 7:24 — 27 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
Jn 8:31 — 32 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Jn 12:46 — 48 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness. And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
The blessed Holy Spirit complemented the teachings of our Lord Jesus and further revealed, how walking in the truth of the scriptures can be simplified and done without stress through the grace of God . See it.
Ephesians 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Ephesians 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
1Jo 1:6 — 7 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
1 John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
Receive grace to do so and be unusably blessed now and at eternity in Jesus name.
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:
Friend, I earnestly pray for you in particular that you shall be part of the dawning rapture in Jesus name.
But then join forces with me for God to answer my sincere prayers for you, by determinedly living by the entirety of the revealed truth of the scriptures.
2 John 1:4 I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
This becomes necessary because those who failed to live by the entirety of the scriptures according to our Lord Jesus Himself, shall be part of the fearsome and frightful great tribulations. This shall not be your portion in Jesus name.
Rev 3:10 — 11 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Friend, you must understand why this shall be so. Please don’t ever forget this. Any part of the scriptures deliberately not taught by any minister or not done by anyone and everyone who profess religion, shall remove their names from the book of Life.
And once that happens, such a person shall be consigned to hell fire. This shall not be your portion. So avoid it.
Rev 22:18 — 19 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
Friend, anyone and everyone who reject any part of the scriptures falls into the categories of people calling our Lord Jesus Christ, Lord but stubbornly refuse to submit to His sayings in the Bible.
Such people shall not be part of this imminent event. But you shall surely be part of it, so don’t do what they are doing. It is well with you in particular in Jesus name.
Luke 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
See you at the top in Jesus name
