Today's Bible Verse To Ponder Over:

God Suffers Long Because He Is Love!

Today's Bible Verse To Ponder Over:

"Love suffers long and is kind." (1 Cor 13:4).

God is Love. That is why He chooses to suffer even when he finds that we sin and cause much suffering to Him. The God of the New Testament does not overlook sin while the God of the Old Testament punishes sin. God hates sin, always he has and always He will. He is infact is angry at the wicked who chooses to sin without repentance or regret for his bad and evil behavior. Our Father in heaven, the Son of God our Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit were the same God in the Old as well as the New Testament. But the only difference between the two Testament is, in the Old God demanded through Law, in the New Testament God gives grace through Jesus who are ready to humbly acknowledge that they cannot keep the law with out His help.

There was a father who wanted to teach his son how serious sin is, he told his son that whenever he did any sin, he can go to a particular tree on the corner of the house and in it he can fasten with a nail for each sin and go scot free without any trouble or punishment from the father in the home. So the son used to fasten nails day by day, more and more, and was let go for it. He soon started to see the tree filled with more and more nails, that when time went by he became curious to know where to fasten the nails further if the tree will soon get filled up full of nails. As he was tensed up a little and was in deep thought about it, all the while Father has been watching all the works that the son has been doing all the while. Never did the Father show his face in anger when the son sinned, but rather he continued to love his son and taught him regularly the Word of God to let him grow up to know what is right and wrong, and how to be responsible and live a blessed life.

On a particular day, the son was very serious and tensed up to be in deep thought about something which bothered him, on that particular day he found that the tree had no more space to nail even a single nail upon it. Having know in the past that only nailing it on the tree can make him go scot free for his sin, he tip toed down the hall way to his father who was in prayer at that time and asked him where to fasten the nail as there was no more space on the tree. Slowly the father raised his face in deep sorrow of heart, and extended to his son the palm of his hand and told him to fasten the nails further more on it. That was the day the son broke within and understood how much his father has suffered all the while when he was still sinning day by day. Then the Father shared the Gospel with his young son and led him to the Cross to repent of his sins and receive forgiveness from the Lord for all the sins he has ever done to receive mercy and grace from the Lord. The boy became a great preacher and teacher of the good news of Jesus Christ to lead so many souls to the Lord in his generation because he understood the suffering and pain that sin caused to the heart of the father. Let us consider the kindness and the severity of God! Kindness to his children who repent, severity of his judgment for sin for those who harden their heart towards Him.

Let Us Pray Saints: Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you and praise you for saving me from sin. Sorry for the pain my sins have caused to your heart. I come to you with a broken heart to tell you how much I feel when sin overcomes me, help me overcome all the besetting areas of sin that has caused suffering to you. Thank you for your love which you have showed towards me in Christ Jesus, through whom I stand by grace to receive your mercy newly day after day, morning after morning, it has not failed at all. Bless you greatly for your benevolency from the bottom of my heart, in Jesus mighty name I pray. Amen. Hallelujah!

Much Blessings,

Apostle Abraham Israel

"If it is a serious offence to sin before God because it causes Him to suffer, then to repent of it is much more serious business before God inorder that we may live a life pleasing to Him in Christ Jesus and bring joy to His loving fatherly heart." — Abraham Israel

"God is love that is why He is kind and gentle even we are not toward Him. In other words, God perfect love for us make him suffer long until we completely make a about turn in matters of sin that made Him suffer for long. God acts as a loving Father towards his son, he chastises and yet in the midst of it He shows his mercy and grace day by day. He know that we are dust, that is why He purifies us until we become the gold that He can boast about for eternity ahead! Give in to God and He will never ever give up on you. Glory! Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel

"Man's goodness does not just depend on moral excellence, it instead is based on how well He connects with God and chooses to stay in Him who is the one and only Good without a shadow of turning!" — Abraham Israel

"Peace can neither be received nor be maintained by information, but rather by depending and meditating on the truth by faith, waves of inspiration from His Spirit can calm our soul and keep it intact in the peace of God that passes all our natural understanding. Peace is God reminding us, saying, no matter what happens, I am with you and in control of your situation!" — Abraham Israel

"When all the sacrifice has been done and there is nothing more to offer except our heart, the fire from heaven will suddenly descend upon the living sacrifice to burn over it and yet not consume it for the Glory of God! This is what John Wesely described saying, 'I set myself on fire and people come to watch me burn.' May we light ourselves on fire with this holy passion in the same way and bring great glory to God in our generation!" — Abraham Israel

"God needs no other sacrifice now, than to give ourselves as a holy living sacrifice within the will of God." — Abraham Israel

Manna for the Day

Manna for the Day:

"You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ." (2 Tim.2:3).

A soldier is the one who knows all the dangers that are present in the battle field, yet because of his passion for defending his country from outsiders and enemies who wants to kill them, he joins the army, trains himself, disciplines his mind and goes in to the battle valiantly to face the enemy and come out alive and victorious for his country. There will be days when in the morning cold and freezing winds will blow to chill the bones and rattle it, yet out of great hardship they rise up against all odds and face the trials to come out victorious day by day.

These prolonged days of hardships are actually not the battle itself, but rather the training period only. It prepares them not to fear the enemy and fight valiantly for the future generations as well as their own family. We do not see a soldier who is preparing for the battle to live a undisciplined life without a purpose. Rather they are disciplined by the very atmosphere where they live, which we call as a boot camp. In the same way, every child of God who is born in to the Kingdom of God by God's will, will be put in to boot camp situations of their life where they have to fight day in and day out to keep the faith that God has started within them.

The enemy of our soul will always be there to sow seeds of doubt to cause unbelief within us. But we by our own choice should endure hardship, because wide is the way to the destruction of hell fire and narrow is the way to life eternal. Wide ways are to travel in the direction of our own choice without faith in God's ways or purpose, narrow way is the highway of holiness and faith because God leads us and trains us to something bigger than this life, which is to plan us for the life to come. If we have seen continual struggles of hardship in this world and have fought by faith in God and His Word through the Spirit, we have been walking as a good soldier of Jesus Christ to be promoted soon for greater assignments of glory for now and for eternity ahead! Rulership is that which has been planned and purposed by God for all the overcomers by faith. A new world to come is waiting for you to arise and shine for the Glory of God. Don't disappoint yourself by becoming tainted with the world and its sinfulness. Even when sin tries to drown you, be a lotus who in the midst of gutter it blooms and blossoms with glory by keeping itself up from the gutter all around it.

Dear Heavenly Father, I thank you and praise you for making me a child of God and putting me in to the discipline of the Kingdom of God to stay in faith as a spiritual warrior against the doubts and unbelief of the evil one. Help me endure hardship as a faithful and a good soldier of Jesus Christ my Lord. Thank you for finding me faithful to enroll me in to this heavenly army on earth that is being prepared by you for eternal reign in the new heaven and new earth. I bless you with all my heart in Jesus mighty name! Amen.

Much Blessings,

Apostle Abraham Israel

"Fighters are not just born, but they are disciplined through hardship to bring a conqueror out of them. Spiritually God trains His children for faith, then rewards them for endurance through hardship through which they become overcomers who are more than conquerors." — Abraham Israel

Apostolic Quotes

Å℘◎﹩☂øł☤ḉ ℚυ◎тℯṧ :

"Trinity is not just a theory to explain and defend, rather it is a demonstration of the living and a loving reality of God who transcends the limitations of human mind to touch the limitless reality of the heart which can only be able to understand eternity in its entirety more and more as we become conformed to the likeness of His nature. Adamic nature cannot comprehend God because it is independent and not interdependent by choice, God chooses to reveal Himself to His children because they have the capacity to understand Him as they were recreated by Him in His will in His likeness being conformed to it more and more each passing day. The paradox of triune being begins with the basis of the uncreated, self-sustaining and eternally existent one who is without need trying to explain himself to those created, dependent and those who are in constant need of His help. Trinity cannot be fully explained to our mind, but it can be experienced more and more with our heart as our spiritual capacity to understand the infinite increases! Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel

"Religion insists you to do to get saved, God insists that because you have been saved, you do what He says to serve and worship Him all the days of your life forever." — Abraham Israel

"Religion is man made, relationship with God through Jesus Christ is heaven sent. Religion demands, while relationship with God is provided. Religion says do, God says done. Religion says when you do, you get saved at the end after your death, God says because I have saved you, you follow me and serve me and worship me as I am worthy of your devotion and reverence and respect. Religion says works done for God saves you, God says you can only work for me legally when you get saved. Religion demands a price to be paid for great saintly spirituality, God releases a desire to sacrifice within a saved saint and helps Him fulfill it. Religion demands blind submission through law and promises reward for obedience, God liberates a man from law and promises grace to walk in the law and rewards belief with both temporal and eternal reward. Religion demands self-effort to please God, relationship with God through Jesus Christ expects only faith to please God. Religion makes a good slave of the law, God makes willing sons to inherit his eternal life through belief and help them keep the law through His grace and inherit the eternal reward that He has in store for them all. Do you believe or do you work your way to God? When you work, the wages of sin of failing God is death. When you only believe, salvation is given as a free gift from God and rewards for working out your salvation will end up in works that fetches for you both temporal and eternal reward. Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel

"It is better to speak the truth on time, than to speak it ineffectively out of time." — Abraham Israel

"We may only see four pillars at every corner supporting any room of our house to keep it standing intact, but there is a fifth pillar that we might have overlooked standing in the midst of our home, and it is the one and only God who could make a house to become the sweet home we enjoy day by day." — Abraham Israel

"Trials and temptations of all sorts are a temporal tests that are allowed by our loving Father God for promotion and not to harm us with difficulties but to warm our heart with eternal treasures that cannot be taken away from us eternally. Satan is bothered not about the unsaved because they are all already under his delusion of unbelief without any real power against him, but he is really bothered by the enlightened believer who has the potential to live a life of spiritual power and glory abundantly on earth with which they have the opportunity to be fully pleasing to God, glorify Him on earth as it is in heaven and as a result of it inherit from Him a eternal glory and joy which is the currency of the heavenly Kingdom. Satan may be a test conductor in your life under the sovereign hand of God, but the one who is going to evaluate you and give marks to reward you is your Father in Heaven through our loving dear Lord God Jesus Christ. So thank and praise the Lord always when you face trials and hardships of this life with His all sufficient mighty grace, knowing that joy of the life to come which we experience after each endeavor is just a foretaste of what is to come! What is in store is not just restoration of the old earth through us and a resettled new earth for us to dwell, but rather royalty of heaven to experience forever and ever. Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel

"Altitude in life does not depend on our ability to perform, but rather on the attitude set for excellence."— Abraham Israel

"Attitudes that are set in the right frequency based on the Word of God, can reach very far and wide in to the hearts of people that will stay with them for eternity!" — Abraham Israel

"In searching for happiness there is no end, but in searching for God and more of Him we find joy and become happy too to find our purpose. Happiness is man's search to find purpose in life, joy is when God finds a man who fits himself in to His purpose by finding Him. Happiness is an earthly temporal pursuit, while joy is the antidote to cure the heart of its purposelessness through heavenly eternal limitless pursuit of the life to come which exists in God now and supplied supernaturally to us in our heart to all who fear and seek Him. Every human born on earth has a higher purpose of God to live, but only those who choose to search for that the higher purpose day in and day out will come to find it meaningful and satisfying, and live in God and serve Him through His limitless grace. Law was made for the lawless mind, grace is given for the seeking heart. When you read about Jesus in the New Testament Gospels, again and again you can find Him telling people around Him that it is the Father who works in Him and does the work inside out. In other words, Jesus was so lost in the purpose of God that He never felt the works that he did to be a work at all but rather he felt joyful a hundred percentage to find it all as the grace of God to be thankful and praising God for it all the time. This is the true grace of God. The end of all things is not just to serve God, but to learn to serve on earth with grace and therefore become graced with glory to serve God in the new heaven and new earth eternally! Hallelujah!" — Abraham Israel

"The spirit and the flesh are in constant battle, whoever we feed the most will win the battle on that particular day even though the war has been fought and won by the Captain of our soul (i.e.) Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior by His very life, death and resurrection. The believer is pulled apart within, in the opposite direction simultaneously by a constant desire to be holy as well as a instantaneous desire to be happy. But who wins the most does matter to us in the end because this war against the flesh carries eternal significance of how much glory we will inherit in the life to come. This life we live is just a training ground for the life to come in God's purpose and design for us on earth. While the flesh conforms us to the worldly way of thinking which brings in death to fellowship with God and lack of abundant purposeful life, the spirit life leads to intimacy with God and a life of purpose lived abundantly on earth as it is in heaven. The flesh profits a man temporally, but the spirit profits a man eternally! Doing what we like profits us nothing eternally, rather by doing what the Spirit of God desires through our spirit-man, we become loaded with riches for eternity. The flesh man decays as we become old, the spirit man stays fresh, energetic and more stronger than ever before as we become diligently old in to adulthood spiritually through faith and more faith. Feed your spirit through the Spirit until it starts to rule and reign over your flesh and thus be transformed in to His likeness to inherit His Glory eternally!" — Abraham Israel
