John 14:23

New International Version

23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.

Perspective

Those only that see Christ with an eye of faith, shall see him for ever: the world sees him no more till his second coming; but his disciples have communion with him in his absence. These mysteries will be fully known in heaven. It is a further act of grace, that they should know it, and have the comfort of it. Having Christ's commands, we must keep them. And having them in our heads, we must keep them in our hearts and lives. The surest evidence of our love to Christ is, obedience to the laws of Christ. There are spiritual tokens of Christ and his love given to all believers. Where sincere love to Christ is in the heart, there will be obedience. Love will be a commanding, constraining principle; and where love is, duty follows from a principle of gratitude. God will not only love obedient believers, but he will take pleasure in loving them, will rest in love to them. He will be with them as his home. These privileges are confined to those whose faith worketh by love, and whose love to Jesus leads them to keep his commandments. Such are partakers of the Holy Spirit's new-creating grace.
Amen!

Matthew 28:18-20

New International Version

18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with youalways, to the very end of the age.”

Perspective

Christ solemnly commissioned the apostles and his ministers to go forth among all nations. The salvation they were to preach, is a common salvation; whoever will, let him come, and take the benefit; all are welcome to Christ Jesus. Christianity is the religion of a sinner who applies for salvation from deserved wrath and from sin; he applies to the mercy of the Father, through the atonement of the incarnate Son, and by the sanctification of the Holy Spirit, and gives up himself to be the worshipper and servant of God, as the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, three Persons but one God, in all his ordinances and commandments.

Believers shall have the constant presence of their Lord always; all days, every day. There is no day, no hour of the day, in which our Lord Jesus is not present with his churches and with his ministers; if there were, in that day, that hour, they would be undone. The God of Israel, the Saviour, is sometimes a God that hideth himself, but never a God at a distance. Amen!

2 Timothy 1:13-14

New International Version

13 What you heard from me, keep as the patternof sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus. 14 Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you—guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us.

Perspective

There is a day coming, when our souls will be inquired after. Thou hadst a soul committed to thee; how was it employed? in the service of sin, or in the service of Christ? The hope of the lowest real Christian rests on the same foundation as that of the great apostle. He also has learned the value and the danger of his soul; he also has believed in Christ; and the change wrought in his soul, convinces the believer that the Lord Jesus will keep him to his heavenly kingdom. Paul exhorts Timothy to hold fast the Holy Scriptures, the substance of solid gospel truth in them. It is not enough to assent to the sound words, but we must love them. The Christian doctrine is a trust committed to us; it is of unspeakable value in itself, and will be of unspeakable advantage to us. It is committed to us, to be preserved pure and entire, yet we must not think to keep it by our own strength, but by the power of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us; and it will not be gained by those who trust in their own hearts, and lean to their own understandings. Amen!

Isaiah 48:17

New International Version

17
This is what the Lord says—� your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:�“I am the Lord your God,� who teaches you what is best for you,� who directs you in the way you should go.

Perspective

The Holy Spirit qualifies for service; and those may speak boldly, whom God and his Spirit send. This is to be applied to Christ. He was sent, and he had the Spirit without measure. Whom God redeems, he teaches; he teaches to profit by affliction, and then makes them partakers of his holiness. Also, by his grace he leads them in the way of duty; and by his providence he leads in the way of deliverance. God did not afflict them willingly. If their sins had not turned them away, their peace should have been always flowing and abundant. Spiritual enjoyments are ever joined with holiness of life and regard to God's will. It will make the misery of the disobedient the more painful, to think how happy they might have been. And here is assurance given of salvation out of captivity. Those whom God designs to bring home to himself, he will take care of, that they want not for their journey. This is applicable to the grace laid up for us in Jesus Christ, from whom all good flows to us, as the water to Israel out of the rock, for that Rock was Christ. Amen!

Psalm 119:64

New International Version

64
The earth is filled with your love, Lord;� teach me your decrees.

Perspective

True believers take the Lord for the portion of their inheritance, and nothing less will satisfy them. The psalmist prayed with his whole heart, knowing how to value the blessing he prayed for: he desired the mercy promised, and depended on the promise for it. He turned from by-paths, and returned to God's testimonies. He delayed not. It behoves sinners to hasten to escape; and the believer will be equally in haste to glorify God. No care or grief should take away God's word out of our minds, or hinder the comfort it bestows. There is no situation on earth in which a believer has not cause to be thankful. Let us feel ashamed that others are more willing to keep from sleep to spend the time in sinful pleasures, than we are to praise God. And we should be more earnest in prayer, that our hearts may be filled with his mercy, grace, and peace. Amen!

Proverbs 22:6

New International Version

6
Start children off on the way they should go,� and even when they are old they will not turn from it.

Perspective

While many regard this proverb as a precious promise, others consider it a severe warning, but all would be wise to recognise the godly principle on which this word of wisdom is founded.

Children are a gift from God and to dedicate time and patience in the child-training process is the right, responsibility, and joy of all parents. All children are born with a propensity towards evil, and training infants and young people in godly conduct, wise choices, and appropriate accountability for their actions and attitudes is a God-given, tool to help set a child in the right direction for their life.

For the Christian parent, appropriate training; vocationally, morally, intellectually, musically, educationally, spiritually, or simply encouraging the development of deportment or the promotion of individual gifts and talents, should always be founded on the Word of God and bathed in daily prayer, as day by day they seek to set an example of right living and of godly conduct.
Although this is a general principle and wise proverb, we know that there are some that seek to train up their child in the way they should go, but sadly their child departs from the way. They become rebellious and stray from the path of righteousness. But Scripture always encourages such parents to hope in the Lord, to pray for their repentance, and to look for the day when the prodigal returns to the fold with a penitent heart and a cry for forgiveness, for it is not God's will that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

But there are also many who do not have the benefit of a godly father or a prayerful mother, who have not been brought up in the way they should go. There are those who, knowingly or unwittingly, have encouraged their children to develop worldly ways, sinful habits, and ungodly patterns of behavior. So does this verse exclude those children from God's promise of forgiveness? Never! for God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.

Children, grandchildren, boys, and girls are all a gift from God. May we who have been given the privilege, responsibility, and joy of children, whether our own or those of others, seek to train them up in the way they should go. May we share with them the good news of Jesus Christ and, day by day, point them in the direction of godly conduct, wise choices and appropriate accountability, praying always that when they are old that they will not depart from the way of righteousness. Amen!

Psalm 95:6-7

New International Version

6
Come, let us bow down in worship,� let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;
7
for he is our God� and we are the people of his pasture,� the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,

Perspective

Whenever we come into God's presence, we must come with thanksgiving. The Lord is to be praised; we do not want matter, it were well if we did not want a heart. How great is that God, whose the whole earth is, and the fulness thereof; who directs and disposes of all!, The Lord Jesus, whom we are here taught to praise, is a great God; the mighty God is one of his titles, and God over all, blessed for evermore. To him all power is given, both in heaven and earth. He is our God, and we should praise him. He is our Saviour, and the Author of our blessedness. The gospel church is his flock, Christ is the great and good Shepherd of believers; he sought them when lost, and brought them to his fold. Amen!

Ephesians 2:19

New International Version

19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household,

Perspective

The Church consists of a body of believers who have become citizens of heaven by virtue of our eternal union with Christ Who is our heavenly God and glorious King of kings. This body of believers is made up of a remnant of Jewish believers in Jesus Christ together with a multitude of Gentiles who were lost in their trespasses, dead in their sins, without God as their Father, and without hope in a fallen world. But because each member of the Body of Christ trusted Jesus as Saviour, we are no longer foreigners and strangers who were eternally condemned in their sins and headed for eternal separation from their Creator, but are now fellow-citizens of heaven along with all the past Old Testament saints. We have become part of the household of faith. We have been awarded the privileges and position of children of God, by grace through faith.

Individually and corporately, all Christians are the habitation of our holy God Who has taken up permanent residence with our very bodies, and so we are no longer foreigners and strangers, but are fellow citizens with the saints and by grace are now members of God's heavenly household. Is this not the privilege of all privileges that we should be called the children of God, made joint-heirs with Christ, and be raised up to sit with Him in heavenly places as members of God's family?

Let us, in humble thanks and in His grace, devote ourselves to live our lives in the only way that will please God – walking in spirit and truth, as we discharge our daily duties to the glory of God. Amen!

Galatians 3:28

New International Version

28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Perspective

There is no condemnation for all who are in Christ Jesus. Spiritual death has been removed and we have all been clothed in the righteousness of Christ. All have been freed from the slave-market of sin, for we all have been redeemed by the precious blood of Christ, forgiven of our sins, justified in the eyes of God, regenerated, sealed, adopted, and born again. We have all received the new-life of Christ which is being transformed by the Holy Spirit, day by day, into the likeness of Jesus Christ our Lord.

We have been made privileged ambassadors of God with a heavenly citizenship and life everlasting in Christ Jesus our Saviour. All have been made joint-heirs with Christ, and are living stones that are being fitted together into the dwelling place of God. We have all received power from above and the riches of His grace. And we are all to fellowship in the suffering of our Saviour, to share in His shame and to learn obedience by the things that we also suffer. In this world we will all be hated, despised, rejected, and persecuted for His sake, but we all have received His sufficient grace for everything that we may be called upon to face.

Though we all have our own unique gifting from God and recognise the distinctions between male and female in the various ministries to which we may be called, we are all members of the Body of Christ. Amen!

John 6:29

New International Version

29 Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”

Perspective

Whenever we think of the word 'work' it brings to the mind some activity that we have to DO.

Jesus presents a very different perspective of work when the crowd asked, "What must we do to work the works of God?" BELIEVE ON ME, was His straight-to-the-point answer, "Believe on Him Whom He has sent."

As believers, we have made the choice to believe on Him for our salvation. But we have to continue to believe on Christ. We are to have faith in Him. We are to trust the written Word of God, to trust the Word of God made flesh. Oh! Not for our salvation, because that was settled the moment we believed and cannot be changed; we are eternally secure in Him. We are to believe and trust Him in every aspect of our lives as, day by day, we grow in Him, mature in Him, and produce fruit in our lives to the good of those around us, and for His glory.

As believers, we have the life of Christ within us and the good works that God has prepared for us to do, are to be accomplished in our new Christ-life and through the power of the Holy Spirit. The works God has prepared for us to do cannot be achieved through the power we exert from our old self-life.

We must not only believe in Him Whom God has sent for salvation, but we have also to believe in Him Whom God has sent to do His good works, day by day, in us. Amen!
