The Armor Of God

" Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people.
Do you know something about GOD? Well look at the picture and you will know some things about the ARMOR OF GOD. Do you want to know what the ARMOR OF GOD is? Wait until the end and then find out about the ARMOR OF GOD."
Ephesians 6:10-18 (TNIV)
Do you know about the armor of God? A knight is dressed in armor. This is the end of this blog but it is not the very end. Read on and I will show you what is in store.

THE ARMOR OF GOD is:

THE HELMET OF SALVATION

THE SHIELD OF FAITH

THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

THE BELT OF TRUTH

THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT (WORD OF GOD)

THE SHOES OF PEACE

If we dress ourselves in THE ARMOR OF GOD in everything we do we will be safe from satan and his lies.

God Loves You

"This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his Son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. Anyone who trusts in him is acquitted; anyone who refuses to trust him has long since been under the death sentence without knowing it. And why? Because of that person's failure to believe in the one-of-a-kind Son of God when introduced to him. " John 3:16 (the Message)
Did you know something? Well if you look at the picture you will find out. If you look below the happy face you will see GOD LOVES YOU! And after you are done looking at that you will know that GOD really does LOVE YOU!

Love

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5 22-23 (NASB)






Did you know the fruit of the Spirit? Well the fruit of the Spirit has love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Those are some pretty amazing characteristics that we get by having the fruit of the Spirit in us. Do you want to know how to get this kind of fruit for yourself? All you have to do is ask Jesus to be your Lord and Saviour and believe that He died to pay the price for your sins. Then Jesus will send Holy Spirit to come and live in your heart. Then you will see the fruit of the Spirit in your Life. Then we can really Love. Happy Valentines Day.

Jesus Stops A Storm

After Jesus left in a boat with his disciples, a terrible storm suddenly struck the lake, and waves started splashing into their boat.
Jesus was sound asleep, so the disciples went over to him and woke him up. They said, "Lord, save us! We're going to drown!"
But Jesus replied, "Why are you so afraid? You surely don't have much faith." Then he got up and ordered the wind and the waves to calm down. And everything was calm.
The men in the boat were amazed and said, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him."
Matthew 8:23-27 (CEV)

Jesus went with His disciples across the sea of Galilee. A bad storm started. Jesus slept through it all. The Disciples were afraid. Then they went and woke Jesus up. Jesus said, "If they had more Faith they wouldn't be so afraid. Jesus rebuked the wind and the water. The wind died down and the sea was calm. Jesus truly is the Son of man because even the wind and water obey Him.
I learned that Jesus has more power than the wind and the water.

Ostriches True Or False?

Bury your head in the sand

Meaning

Refuse to confront or acknowledge a problem.

This comes from the supposed habit of ostriches hiding when faced with attack by predators. The story was first recorded by the Roman writer Pliny the Elder, who suggested that ostriches hide their heads in bushes. Ostriches don't hide, either in bushes or sand, although they do sometimes lie on the ground to make themselves inconspicuous. The 'burying their head in the sand' myth is likely to have originated from people observing them lowering their heads when feeding.
The story also relies on the supposed stupidity of ostriches, and of birds in general. In fact, there's little to support that either as birds have a significantly larger brain to weight ratio than many other species of animal. The notion is that the supposedly dumb ostrich believes that if it can't see its attacker then the attacker can't see it.


So, it is not true. Ostriches do not bury their heads in the sand to hide.
I pray we don't bury our head in the sand instead of looking at Jesus?

Papyrus

"So you shall keep His statutes and His commandments which I am giving you today, that it may go well with you and with your children after you, and that you may live long on the land which the LORD your God is giving you for all time."



Last night my mom was reading me Job. We found a word I did not know, Job 9:26They skim past like boats of papyrus. Today we found out what that word meant. This is what it means:

Papyrus is an early form of paper made from the pith of the papyrus plant, Cyperus papyrus, a wetland sedge that was once abundant in the Nile Delta of Egypt. Papyrus usually grows 2-3 meters (5-9 feet) tall, although some have reached as high as 5 meters (15 feet). Papyrus is first known to have been used in ancient Egypt (at least as far back as the First dynasty), but it was also widely used throughout the Mediterranean region, as well as inland parts of Europe and south-west Asia.

Do you know what happened to Job? You can pop into your Bible and read about Job. Once your done reading Job you can know that he got DOUBLE the amount that he had before his test. So let make sure that we remember that the tempter did bad things not God. So we must stay truthful to God and in the end we will get DOUBLE what we had.
