Encouragement for Today (4/23/24)

📖 Greetings sister saints🕯
I hope your day went well yesterday and going the same today!   I didn't get on here last night because we were super busy and I have a lot of different ministry and earthly things to keep up on and sometimes more than others but know that the love of Christ in me, is there for you, even if I can't share it sometimes:)  I'm here today to encourage you though!

I've been pondering how great our creator God is compared to man and how great man thinks he is to God.

And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. 
Genesis 6:5-7 

How frightening to have our creator looking at mankind wanting to destroy him, but is the danger of destruction gone? No... It's still there for those who die in their sinful rebellion against Him. 

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power
2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 

I don't understand how people (the created) can't fear such an awesome God (the Creator) who is coming back to destroy all that isn't His and in rebellion against Him. There are 2 words in Romans 1 that should strike tremendous fear in us! (There are more but I'm aiming at this....)

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are WITHOUT EXCUSE
Romans 1:20 

We have NO EXCUSE in just Romans 1, what about all the rest of God's Word!?  The flesh of man lifts himself up to a higher position than the humble, lowly created being we should be, bringing condemnation unto ourselves as there are to be no other god's before God himself and by lifting ourselves, we become our own god and idol before Him. He's going to put all things right in our end and the end so let us sisters walk in a manner pleasing unto Him.  

HERE is a post that will help godly women be pleasing to Him.  It's one I did years ago on my old sisters blog and carried it over here. 

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
​Colossians 1:9-10 

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:1-2 

Let us walk in His will and ways, not the ways of our flesh that lead us to destruction that we were talking about earlier.  

Proverbs 31 / Titus 2 time.
I've been pondering Titus 2 and Proverbs 31 and how they both compliment one another.  Titus 2 alone is good but Proverbs 31:10+ gives a LOT more detail on how godly women are to conduct themselves in their lives.  We godly woman have a nice assortment of responsibilities in our days, ones we should be thankful to be doing unto the Lord and not unto ourselves and living under the rule of Satan any longer.  Speaking of, we had more travels today and one of my jobs is to map the route, finding places to stay and while doing so, I look for discount stores and sales as we travel.  Today we stopped at a dent and bent store and of course there was witnessing and we found some awesome deals.  You can listen HERE to our daily audio we did about all the Anabaptists (and others) that heard the truth as we went about our day.... if you want.

We got to our parking spot for the night and brother Tupos got gas and I walked to the store for a witness walk and text me....

Lol, he worked hard to get us a level parking spot!!!!!  That's a super awesome gift in van life to be able to sleep flat :) 

We have more travel tomorrow, Lord willing, working our way northward, lets see if we get the day. 
​
The Lord be glorified in all we do and I hope you are thinking the same thing, keeping Him first and foremost in your life.  Hold fast and seek the kingdom of God!

Love to you all, in Christ,
