THE DECEMBER OF HONOUR AND GLORY TO THE GOD OF OUR SALVATION.
THE END OF AN ERA.
The significance of this particular DECEMBER 1999 will not be that it is the end of
another year,nor the end of a decade, but it will principally be because it is not only
the end of a century but more significantly the end of an era of ignorance about what
we are in CHRIST JESUS. We have learnt to appropriate to ourselves BY FAITH, the
promises of the bible, and these promises are manifesting in the lives of BELIEVERS.
The entire global family is now becoming fully aware that we have a friend and saviour in JESUS CHRIST whose name has pervaded the entire spectrum of human
existence. We call on him for salvation, prosperity, divine healing,protection, happy
marital life,fulfilment of our needs , and help in the time of tribulation. We call on him
to satisfy the yearning of our lives.Mankind may be slow to accept that truism HE IS
LORD AND SAVIOUR, but HIS light is shining all over the world and nations are coming in droves to HIS salvation.Countries that have shut their doors against
Christianity years past , have now opened their doors gleefully to HIS holy name
and what had been hitherto impossible about the propagation of the gospel of JESUS
has become possible, '"for with God all things are possible."
Medical science on the other hand, is now accepting that there is a power greater
than medications, reknowned practioners of that profession have come to Christ
and sought his assistance on major surgical operations. Health insurance operators
are encouraging hospitals to hire Chaplains in their facilities not to give final rites
but to lay healing hands and pray for the recovery of patients, because the
financial commitments involved in medical healing are becoming rather suffocating
for the health insurance operators while divine healing is absolutely free without the
strangulating charges involved.
We therefore owe ourselves the duty to magnify Jesus and exalt HIS holy name with
HONOUR and GLORY. We should thank the God of creation for He loved the world
so much that He gave His only begotten son , that whoever believes in Him should
not perish but have everlasting life. Let us therefore come to God in these last days
to worship and bow down,let us kneel before the Lord our maker, for He is our God,
and we are the people of His pasture,and the sheep of His hand.He deserves glory
and honour for HIS mercy that has endured greatly in our lives.
Our daily meditation for this last month of the last year of the 20th Century will be
focused on Honour and Glory.It will be called'December of Honour and Glory to the
God of our salvation'.
We thank the 450 christian friends who visited our website since our inception in
August 1999,and particularly the few that took their time to send us messages
of inspiration and encouragement. May they find joy and gladness of the Lord in
all their endeavors in the coming years. We also thank our webmaster Randy Howald
of Duncanville, Texas,USA for his great work for the Lord which has been free without any charges,as he has taken interest in the work of the Lord, so will the Lord take interest in the work of his life. F
r the grace of God that passeth human
understanding shall abide with him and his entire household.
We hope we have been a blessing to the body of Christ in this journey of faith with
the monthly verses for daily meditation, The daily exaltation of an awesome God,100
scriptural verses that guarantee success through daily application, and our monthly words of exhortation.We are determined to continue until Jesus comes.
May the new millenium bring joy and gladness to your homes and may you find peace with the Lord.
We conclude by commending you "Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding
abundantly above all that we ask or think,according to the power that worketh in us,
Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages ,world without
end.
Amen
