A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

#Jesus said unto him, " Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father, and how sayest thou then show us the Father? John 14:9 Jesus is comforting Philip
Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man comes unto the Father except by Me. If you had known Me, you should have known my Father also. And from henceforth ye know Him. and have seen Him. Philip said unto Him, Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us. Believest thou not that I am in the Father and the Father in Me? The words that I speak unto thee I speak not of myself, but the Father who dwelleth in Me; He doeth the works. Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the very work's sake. Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, he that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also, and greater works than these shall he do because I go to the Father. The Greek word for time is Chronos, meaning a space of time.
Jesus is comforting Philip about the Father and how it will be when He returns to the Father. We thank God for Philip asking these important questions of the Lord Jesus, and it helps us to better understand the Trinity and how it works. Jesus has completed the work that the Father has instructed Him to do, and now He is comforting Philip and the disciples as He is going to send the comforter, the Holy Spirit, who will dwell in them. The Holy Spirit lives within the child of God and seals us. May we live this holy week thanking God for the comforter and Philip, who asked just what we would have asked of the Lord had we been there.
#Then said Jesus unto His disciples, if any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. Matthew 16:24 Jesus is preparing the disciples for His week of passion
From that time forth, Jesus began to show His disciples how that He must go unto Jerusalem and suffer many things, of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed and to be raised the third day again. Then Peter took Him and began to rebuke Him, be it far from thee, Lord. this shall not be unto thee. But He turned and said unto Peter, " Get thee behind Me, Satan; thou art an offense unto Me, for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men. For whosoever will save his life will lose it, and whosoever will lose his life for my sake will find it. For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father, with His angels, and then He shall reward every man according to his works. The Greek word for deny is Apernoemai, meaning to abstain.
Jesus is preparing the disciples for His week of passion, as He has just triumphantly entered Jerusalem on the donkey, but He knows they will be saying crucify Him. Peter was so impetuous that he said be it far from thee, Lord. Then Jesus rebuked Peter, telling him that he did not understand the things of God, but of men. Jesus then told the disciples that the Son of man would be killed, and on the third day will be raised again. Then Jesus said what can a man give in exchange for His soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father, with His angels. Praise God as we celebrate Holy Week. Let us deny ourselves, and take up our cross and follow Jesus. For Jesus shall reward every man according to his works. Therefore, let us be joyful and courageous this week, and prepare for via della rosa, the way of suffering. For we brought nothing into this world, and we will take nothing with us. So let us win souls for Jesus and pray for the peace of Jerusalem, for they shall prosper who do so. Abstain from worldly lust, deny yourself, and take up your cross and follow Jesus. Then we will rejoice when Jesus comes in the Purusia to take us home to heaven. Let not your hearts be troubled, for ye believe in God, believe also in Jesus, for in my Father's house are many mansions, for if it were not so I would have told you, for I go to prepare a place for you, and I will come again to take you where I am also.
#And He answered and said unto them, I tell you that if they hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out. Luke 19:40 Hosanna in the highest blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.
And when He was come nigh, even now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; saying, blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven and glory in the highest. And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto Him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. And when He came near, He beheld the city and wept over it, if thou hadst known, even thou at least, in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace!, but now they are hidden from thy eyes. For the days will come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee around. and keep thee in on every side. The Greek word for stones is Lithos, for a stone, a mill of stumbling.
Hosanna in the highest blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. As we celebrate Palm Sunday, let us remember to cry out and praise the Lord, as the children have done. However, the Pharisees tried to get the Master to rebuke them, but Jesus said if these should be silent, the very stones would cry out. Then Jesus wept over Jerusalem because they did not know the hour had come for the Messiah to bring peace with God, for He was the Lamb of God, slain before the foundations of the world. Five days later, they would be shouting crucify Him. Then Jesus warns them that their enemies will build a trench and compass thee around and keep thee in on every side. It is time to seek the Lord while He may be found, for there is coming a day when He will not be found. I pray that as we prepare for all the festivities of holy week, we would consecrate our minds and bodies to serve the Lord and to witness to His amazing grace in going to the cross to nail all those ordinances that were against us to the tree. Now we can have peace with God and with our fellow man. Be at peace with all men, and be ye holy, for without holiness, no man will see the Lord. This gift of God that paid for the wages of sin and gives us eternal life when we place our faith in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, so that whosoever would believe in Him would not perish, but have everlasting life. Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. May the Lord bless you to accept Jesus Christ as your Personal Lord and Savior.
#For therein is the righteousness of God, which is revealed from faith unto faith, as it is written, the shall live by faith. Romans 1:17
I am debtor both to the Greeks and to the Barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise. So as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you who are at Rome also. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God to everyone who believes, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known of God is manifest in them, for God hath shewed it in them. For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen in them, being understood by the things which are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse. The Greek word for faith is Pistos, meaning credence in religious truth, especially the reliance on Christ for salvation.
Paul is telling the Romans that he is a debtor to the Greeks and the Barbarians, and both unto the wise and unwise, so he is ready to preach the gospel to them at Rome. Jesus said if we are ashamed to confess Him before men, He will not confess us before God and the angels. Therefore, this power of the gospel of God is for everyone who believes. The gospel was preached to the Jews first and also to the Greeks. We must take this gospel to the ends of the earth, and I thank God that with the Internet and satellite television, this is possible. For the righteousness of God is revealed unto all men, but men love unrighteousness. The invisible things of God are clearly seen in them being made from the things that are made. The eternal power of the Godhead makes it impossible for man to have an excuse not to believe. If you don't go to heaven, it is because of your unbelief, and you will be sent to the Lake of fire prepared for the devil and his angels. The wrath of God will be revealed against all those who hold the truth in unrighteousness. So be warned, for when you reject this gospel, you will not have any excuse before a holy God why He will not let you into heaven.

#(For we walk by faith and not sight) 2 Corinthians 5:7 The walk of faith for the child of God
For we that are in this tabernacle do groan being burdened. not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. Now He that hath wroth us for this selfsame thing is God, who also hath given us the earnest of the Spirit. Therefore, we are always confident knowing that while we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord. We are confident, I say, and willing to be absent from the body and present with the Lord. Wherefore we labor that whether absent or present we may be accepted of Him. For we must all appear before the judgment Seat of Christ, that everyone may receive the things done in the body, according to that he hath done, whether good or bad. The Greek word for sight is Eidos, meaning a view, i.e., form, appearance, or shape.
The walk of faith for the child of God is clear: without faith it is impossible to please God, for he that comes to God must believe that He is and a rewarder of those who diligently seek after Him. When we are in this tabernacle, we moan because we do not want to die and have our spirit be unclothed. So let us thank God that He made us for this reason, being confident knowing that while we are absent from the body, we are at home with the Lord, which is far better. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. It is like electricity in a circuit with electrons and protons; you cannot see them, but when you turn the light switch on, light appears. The walk of faith for the child of God is good, and God is faithful, who does not allow us to suffer more than we can bear. Therefore, let us rejoice for whether we sleep or are awake, we will all be with the Lord.
#My Brethren Count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations; James 1:2 God does not test us more than we can bear
James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes that are scattered abroad, greetings. My brethren count it all joy when you fall into divers temptations, knowing that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giving to all men liberally and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him. The Greek word for temptations is Perasmos, meaning a putting to the test.
God does not test us more than we can bear, for all temptations to come unto man are common to man, but God is faithful who does not test us more than we can bear, but with the temptation provides a way to escape that we can bear. James is giving us practical wisdom, and he tells us that if any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally. Every man is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust, and lust, when it is finished, leads to death. The key is when God shows you the escape, take it because His grace is sufficient to see you through the temptation. We must be like Joseph, when we are tempted to run, even leaving our clothing. The word perfect means mature, and as we grow in the faith and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, we mature in the faith. May the Lord bless you, my brothers and sisters, to be faithful in your temptations and count it all joy.
#The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly even the voice of the day of the LORD, the mighty man shall cry there bitterly. Zephaniah 1:14 The day of the Lord shall come as a thief in the night
Howl ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are cut down, all that bear silver are cut off. And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their lees: that say in their heart the LORD will not do good, neither will He do evil. Therefore, their goods shall become a booty and their houses a desolation, they shall also build houses but shall not inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof. That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and of distress, a day of wasteness and of desolation. a day of darkness and gloominess. a day of clouds and thick darkness, a day of the trumpet, and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers. And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD; and their blood shall be poured out as dust. and their flesh as the dung.
The Hebrew word for LORD is Jehovah, the self-existent God of the Jews. The day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night. Jehovah God shall punish all those at ease in Zion, that say in their heart Jehovah God will not do good, neither will He do evil. Their goods shall become their spoil, and their houses a desolation. We are seeing the desolation from the Iran war with Israel and the United States, and the markets are rattled. The weather patterns are changing as climate change is rampant, a day of darkness and gloominess, and a day of clouds and thick darkness. Jesus will roar out of Zion, and there will be great distress upon men that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against Jehovah God, and their blood shall be poured out as dust and the flesh as the dung. Multitudes will be in the valley of decision, and will not know what to do. It is time to repent and search your hearts, so that this day will not catch you unaware. May the Lord direct our hearts to spread this gospel to the ends of the earth, so that men and women can turn from their sins to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
#Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence, and likewise the wife also. 1 Corinthians 7:3 husbands and wives make love
The Greek word for benevolence is Eunoia, meaning conjugal duty in marriage. Now concerning the things whereof which ye wrote unto me, it is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and every woman have her own husband. The wife hath not power over her own body but the husband, and likewise the husband hath not power over his body but the wife. Defraud ye not the other, except it be with consent for a season, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer, then come together again lest the Satan tempt you. not for your incontinency, but I speak this by permission and not of commandment
Husbands and wives make love and stop fighting one another. Paul is speaking by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and not a commandment. The woman is tempted by touch, and the man is tempted by sight, so it is important to be married so that you will not commit fornication. Too many marriages do not have the conjugal duty being practiced, and this is the adultery problem that is exacerbated today. Too many couples are separated because of this reason, and marriage is being tarnished. It is time for husbands and wives to make love as God commanded us to do. Marriage is for procreation and recreation, and this is what Paul means by rendering due benevolence to one another. Only come apart for fasting and prayer, for a season, then come back together so that Satan will not tempt you to commit adultery. More pastors need to preach on this topic because the church is lacking in this doctrine. Some say that because Paul is giving his opinion, it is not inspired. All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for correction, rebuking, and instruction in righteousness. It is time to make things right in the bedroom, so that every other room in the house will be alright.
#And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Romans 8:10 Be ye holy
The Greek word for righteousness is Dikaiosune, meaning Christian justification of character. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His. But if the Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by the Spirit that dwelleth in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors not to the flesh. to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh ye shall die.But if ye through the flesh do mortify the deeds of the body ye shall live.
Be ye holy, for God is holy, and He calls for us to live the holy life. We do this by putting the flesh to death. If we walk in the Spirit, we will not yield to the lusts of the flesh. Paul tells us that we are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if Jesus Christ dwells in you. Therefore, if a man has not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His. Let the Spirit of Christ bring to life your mortal bodies, since we are no longer debtors to the flesh but to the Spirit of God. There is therefore no condemnation unto those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh but according to the Spirit. If you live after the flesh, you will die, so mortify the deeds of the body by the Spirit, and you will live. We are about to celebrate the death, burial, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, so let us examine ourselves and make sure that we are in the faith. As we have been told, if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. So be ye holy and separated unto God. Live every day as though it is your last day, and glorify God in your bodies. May the Lord reward us on the day of judgment when we stand before the Bema Seat of Christ. Therefore, we will be judged according to our deeds, whether they be good or bad. Therefore, make sure that you are in the Spirit every day, and we do this by mortifying the flesh every day.
#(A Psalm of David) The LORD is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? Dwelling in the house of the Lord
When the wicked, even my enemies and foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear, though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. One thing have I desired of the LORD, and that will I seek after that I may dwell in the house of my LORD, all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in His temple. The Hebrew word for salvation is Yesha, meaning liberty, deliverance, and prosperity. This is a Psalm of David, and he desired to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of his life, and to behold the beauty of Jehovah God. What a blessing to have the Lord as our light and salvation, whom shall I fear? True prosperity comes when we have the Lord as our light and salvation. We are pilgrims and strangers on this earth, and when the Lord has delivered us and given us liberty, we must delight ourselves in the Lord as David did. Jehovah God is the strength of my life, so that leaves no one for me to be afraid of. When my enemies come upon me to eat up my flesh, they will stumble and fall, because Jehovah God is the strength of my life. How peaceful life is when Jehovah God is with us forever, and will never forsake us. It is my prayer that you will find the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Personal Savior. He will abide with you forever and give you peace. Jesus said, " My peace give I unto you, not as the world gives unto you. What a promise and a future we have. Dwelling in the house of the Lord forever and to behold the beauty of the Lord while living in His temple. Do this, my brothers and sisters, and you will enjoy the best that is yet to come for the child of God.
