R U B.A.D.

This came to me via email today and since I have not written a post for today, thought I’d share it.

It is the best description of BAD I think I have ever read.  I am glad to be BAD. How about you?

John 3:16-17
21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
via John 3:16-17 KJ21 – “For God so loved the world that – Bible Gateway.

While shopping at a local mall,  I spotted a man with an acronym on his shirt that had B.A.D. Me, being the person that I am (curious), stopped the man and asked, “What does B.A.D. stand for?” And trust me, you’ll be amazed at what his response was.

He replied, B.A.D. stands for: “Blessed And Delivered.” That thought stuck with me as I finished doing my shopping that day. So, I came up with a little advice for you today.

(1) When the enemy tries to attack you, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(2) When things don’t seem to be going right on your job, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(3) When things are not looking good in your marriage,/relationships, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(4) When folks scandalize your name, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(5)  When health challenges seem to overtake your body, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(6) When the spirit of depression tries to overtake your mind, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(7) When your have more month than money, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(8) When your mode of transportation is not working right, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(9) When the spirit of grief tries to paralyze you, just remember that you are B.A.D.!

(10)… And  when you wake up in the morning to a brand new day, just shout to the heavens…
Hallelujah! I AM B.A.D.!!!!!!!!!

“BLESSED AND DELIVERED.

I Corinthians 13
New American Standard Bible
12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.
13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Daniel 3
New American Standard
28 Nebuchadnezzar responded and said, “Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-nego, who has sent His angel and delivered His servants who put their trust in Him, violating the king’s command, and yielded up their bodies so as not to serve or worship any god except their own God.

Blessed and Delivered,

A Rundown

of what has been occupying me this morning. 

First I began with Beth Moore — Wednesdays with Beth. Click HERE to see and hear.  Listen for Age of Posers.  We live in a time of Posers – let us NOT be Posers.

Next I caught some of the 700 Club.  Click HERE for the particular news story.  And from this news story I am thinking where are the NOAHs? Am I a Noah? Am I sounding the alarm that JESUS is Coming? And who is listening? Are the peoples of the world, especially sects of Americans, like the people in Noah’s day –Laughing at him until the rain began to fall?

We know the answer to that, don’t we? Here it is.

2 Timothy 3 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)

This know also: that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, without selfcontrol, fierce, despisers of those who are good,
4 traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God,
5 having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof. From such turn away.
6 For of this sort are those who creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
via 2 tim 3 KJ21 – This know also: that in the last days – Bible Gateway.

And so that wrapped and brought me here to give you something to think about.

Luke 21: 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
via Luke 21:27-29 KJV – And then shall they see the Son of man – Bible Gateway.

Be wise, be discerning, be ready and be telling.

Do Not Be Afraid

I’m sharing with you this morning a portion of last night’s reading. It is still comforting, still alive to me this morning:

Revelation 1:
17 When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, “Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last,
18 and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.
via Rev 1 NASB – The Revelation of Jesus Christ – The – Bible Gateway.

His right hand – the Hand of Authority, the Hand of Ruler-ship, the Hand of ALL Power and He said do not be afraid. I am only not afraid when I am surrendered, when I humble myself under His Almighty Hand. And there I am safe and comforted. Aren’t you?

There we KNOW HE IS THE LIVING ONE. He is the ONE who was DEAD but now is ALIVE forevermore. The ONE with power over death and hell.

JESUS IS!

Do YOU know Him? More importantly does HE know you?

Matthew 7:
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
via Matthew 7:22-24 KJV – Many will say to me in that day Lord – Bible Gateway.
