• 2 Corinthians 5:20-21 NASB
    "Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. [21] He made Him who knew no sin to be sin in our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."

    How then might we be "reconciled to God?"

    Colossians 1:19-20 NASB
    "For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, [20] and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross."

    We CAN'T reconcile ourselves to God. There's nothing from us that is worthy of the Father's favor. We may only submit ourselves to the reconciliation God freely offers through Christ and his FINISHED work at the cross. God made a way, through his Son, to make peace with us, despite how evil we have been or how terrible we can become, through the blood of Jesus on the cross.

    It is the obedience of Christ to submit to the cross and not our own obedience that saves us and goes on saving us. That's the gospel folks. Christ and him crucified.

  • SERMON FOR THIS LAST AGE: WHAT GOD REQUIRES OF YOU NOW TO BE SEALED — KNOW IT, DO IT, OBEY IT

    Main Text: Revelation 14:4-5, 1 John 3:9, Romans 12:1-2

    This is about your obedience today.

    Matthew 7:21 — Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father.

    1 John 2:17 — The world is passing away... but whoever does the will of God abides forever.

    In this last age, many are hearing, few are doing. God is not looking for listeners. He is looking for doers who will be sealed. Here is His will.

    ---

    1. KNOW WHO YOU ARE — BELIEVERS IN CHRIST NOT PRACTISING SIN YOU ARE TRUE ISRAEL, YOU MUST STOP LIVING LIKE A GENTILE

    You must know your identity or you will miss your sealing.

    Romans 9:6-8 — It is not the children of the flesh who are children of God, but children of promise.
    Galatians 3:29 — If you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's offspring, heir according to promise.
    Ephesians 2:19 — You are no longer strangers... but fellow citizens with saints.
    1 Peter 2:9 — You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.

    GOD'S WILL: Stop living with Gentile mindset — fear, sin, worldliness. You are Israel of God. Galatians 6:16 Live as holy nation.

    HOW TO OBEY: Romans 2:28-29 — Let your heart be circumcised by Spirit. Cut off flesh. Colossians 3:5-8 — Put to death what is earthly in you.

    2. KNOW WHAT GOD REQUIRES — STOP PRACTICING SIN AS A LIFESTYLE

    This is the line that divides the sealed from the unsealed in the last age.

    1 John 3:8-9 — Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil... No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him.
    1 John 5:18 — Everyone born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and evil one does not touch him.
    1 John 3:7 — Whoever practices righteousness is righteous.

    GOD'S WILL: Holiness is not sinless perfection by flesh. It is a new nature that refuses to practice sin as lifestyle. Titus 2:11-12 — Grace trains us to renounce ungodliness.

    HOW TO OBEY TODAY:
    1 Corinthians 6:18 — Flee sexual immorality. No negotiation.
    Ephesians 4:29 — Let no corrupting talk come from your mouth. Revelation 14:5 — In their mouth no lie was found.
    1 John 2:15-16 — Do not love the world. James 4:4 — Friendship with world is enmity with God.
    Galatians 5:19-21 — Those who do such things will not inherit kingdom. Stop them.

    If sin is still your practice, you are not sealed. Repent now. Acts 17:30

    3. KNOW HOW YOU ARE MADE BLAMELESS — BY BLOOD, THEN WALK IT OUT

    Revelation 14:5 — For they are blameless.

    How? Jude 1:24 — He is able to present you blameless. Ephesians 1:7 — Redemption through His blood. 1 John 1:7 — Blood cleanses from all sin. Revelation 1:5 — Freed us from our sins by His blood.

    GOD'S WILL: You are made pure by grace, not effort. But grace must then produce purity. Romans 6:1-2 — Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means!

    HOW TO OBEY TODAY:
    2 Corinthians 7:1 — Cleanse yourself from every defilement of body and spirit, perfecting holiness in fear of God.
    1 John 3:3 — Everyone who hopes in Him purifies himself as He is pure.
    Hebrews 12:14 — Strive for holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

    4. KNOW WHAT TO DO UNTIL HE COMES — BE SEALED, STAY ALIVE IN SPIRIT, FOLLOW THE LAMB

    Revelation 14:4 — These are firstfruits for God and the Lamb... they follow the Lamb wherever He goes.
    Revelation 7:3 — Do not harm until we have sealed the servants of our God.
    Revelation 12:14 — Woman given wings of eagle to fly into wilderness where she is nourished.

    GOD'S WILL FOR THE LAST AGE:

    A) BE SEALED NOW — 2 Corinthians 6:2 Now is day of salvation. Don't wait for tribulation. Ephesians 4:30 — Sealed for day of redemption by Holy Spirit. Pray, fast, ask for seal today.

    B) STAY SPIRITUALLY ALIVE — 1 Thessalonians 4:17 — We who are alive, who are left. Many Christians are alive in flesh but dead in spirit — compromised. God wants firstfruits who stay alive spiritually in wildern

    Reagan servant & witness of Jesus of last days. God less you Amen

  • A Nugget of Truth.
    There comes a point when we realize that nothing in this world can truly give lasting peace. Money can disappear, circumstances can change overnight, and even the strongest people eventually reach the end of their own strength. The only place where the soul finds real security is in Jesus Christ. His blood was shed so that we could be forgiven, restored, and brought back to God.

    When we place our trust in Him, we are not trusting in our own ability to survive life's storms, but in the Savior who has already overcome sin and death. That does not mean life will always be easy, but it means we never have to face it alone. No matter how uncertain the future seems, those who belong to Christ can rest in His promises because He never abandons His own.

    As the psalmist wrote, "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty" (Psalm 91:1). The Bible also reminds us, "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins" (Colossians 1:14). So instead of placing our confidence in temporary things, let us draw near to the Lord each day, knowing that the safest place we can ever be is in the hands of Jesus Christ, who is "the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever" (Hebrews 13:8).

  • TUESDAY MORNING FAMILY PRAYER!

    “Lord, Cover Our Family, Heal Our Bodies, Save Our Souls, and Supply Our Needs!”

    Heavenly Father,
    On this Tuesday morning, we come before Your throne with grateful hearts. Before we ask You for anything, we thank You for everything. Thank You for waking us up this morning. Thank You for life, strength, grace, mercy, and another opportunity to call upon Your holy name.
    Your Word declares:
    “This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24 (KJV)
    Father, this morning we place our entire family into Your hands. Every mother, father, husband, wife, son, daughter, grandchild, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, cousin, and extended family member—we cover them in prayer.
    Lord, go where we cannot go. Touch those we cannot reach. Speak to hearts when our words are not enough. Protect our families from dangers seen and unseen, and let Your presence rest upon every household represented in our family.
    Your Word says:
    “The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” — Proverbs 18:10 (KJV)
    Father, be our strong tower!
    LORD, HEAL OUR FAMILY!
    Father, we lift before You every family member who is struggling physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually.
    Some are dealing with sickness in their bodies. Some are carrying pain that others cannot see. Some are fighting battles in their minds. Some are exhausted, discouraged, overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained.
    But God, You know exactly where they are and exactly what they need!
    You declared:
    “For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD.” — Jeremiah 30:17 (KJV)
    So, Father, we ask You to restore health!
    Touch minds that are troubled.
    Touch bodies that are hurting.
    Touch hearts that are broken.
    Strengthen those who are weak.
    Comfort those who are grieving.
    Encourage those who feel discouraged.
    Give rest to those who are weary.
    Lord Jesus, heal, deliver, restore, and set free!
    Your Word declares:
    “He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.” — Psalm 107:20 (KJV)
    Father, send Your Word into every situation!
    Where there is sickness, send healing.
    Where there is bondage, send deliverance.
    Where there is confusion, send clarity.
    Where there is fear, send peace.
    Where there is despair, send hope.
    Where there is weakness, send strength.
    We stand upon Your Word and believe that nothing is too hard for You!
    LORD, SAVE OUR FAMILY!
    Father, our prayer is not only for physical healing—we are crying out for souls to be saved!
    We lift every family member who does not yet know Jesus Christ personally.
    Lord, draw them to You.
    Remove spiritual blindness. Break down hardened hearts. Remove every distraction, excuse, false teaching, and influence that keeps them from surrendering completely to Christ.
    Jesus said:
    “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him.” — John 6:44 (KJV)
    Father, draw our family!
    Let somebody become hungry for Your Word.
    Let somebody become tired of living without You.
    Let somebody realize that possessions, accomplishments, relationships, and money cannot fill the place that belongs to Jesus.
    Let the question rise within their hearts:
    “What must I do to be saved?”
    And just as Paul and Silas answered:
    “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” — Acts 16:30–31 (KJV)
    Father, let salvation come into our households!
    Your Word declares:
    “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” — Romans 10:13 (KJV)
    Let our family members call upon Jesus!
    Let them repent.
    Let them believe.
    Let them surrender.
    Let them be transformed.
    We are praying not merely that they will know about Jesus, but that they will know Jesus and develop a genuine relationship with Him.
    Lord, save our sons and daughters. Save our grandchildren. Save our siblings. Save our extended family. Let there be a spiritual awakening throughout our bloodline.
    LORD, OPEN DOORS OF EMPLOYMENT AND FINANCIAL PROVISION!
    Father, we lift every family member searching for employment.
    Some have submitted applications and are waiting.
    Some are looking for better opportunities.
    Some need promotions.
    Some need pay increases.
    Some are working but still struggling to make ends meet.
    Some are carrying financial burdens that nobody else knows about.
    Father, open doors that no man can shut!
    Your Word says:
    “I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it.” — Revelation 3:8 (KJV)
    Lord, send the right opportunities.
    Give favor during interviews.
    Give wisdom when making career decisions.
    Give courage to walk through new doors.
    Let résumés reach the right people.
    Let applications receive favorable responses.
    Let promotions come.
    Let increases come.
    Let opportunities come that exceed expectations.
    And Father, for every family member struggling financially, remind us that You are our Source.
    Your Word declares:
    “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” — Philippians 4:19 (KJV)
    We stand on that promise!
    Provide food.
    Provide shelter.
    Provide transportation.
    Provide employment.
    Provide resources.
    Provide wisdom to manage what You place into our hands.
    And Father, teach us not only to pray for provision but to walk in wisdom concerning our finances.
    Your Word says:
    “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.” — Proverbs 10:22 (KJV)
    We declare that lack will not destroy our faith! We trust You as our Provider.
    LORD, BRING LOVE AND UNITY INTO OUR FAMILY!
    Father, strengthen our marriages. Strengthen relationships between parents and children. Restore broken relationships between brothers and sisters. Heal old wounds, misunderstandings, disappointments, and offenses.
    Where pride has entered, bring humility.
    Where anger has entered, bring forgiveness.
    Where communication has broken down, bring understanding.
    Where distance has developed, bring reconciliation according to Your will.
    Your Word declares:
    “And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.” — Colossians 3:14 (KJV)
    Teach us to love one another with the love of Christ.
    But Father, above everything else, teach our family to love YOU FIRST!
    Jesus said:
    “And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength.” — Mark 12:30 (KJV)
    May our homes be places where You are honored.
    May prayer live in our homes.
    May Your Word live in our homes.
    May forgiveness live in our homes.
    May peace live in our homes.
    May love live in our homes.
    And may Jesus Christ always remain at the center of our families.
    Father, as we go throughout this Tuesday, order our steps. Protect us traveling to work, school, appointments, and wherever this day may take us.
    Keep Your hand upon our children and grandchildren.
    Watch over our elderly family members.
    Strengthen our caregivers.
    Comfort those who are grieving.
    Encourage those who are discouraged.
    Restore those who have fallen.
    Save those who are lost.
    Heal those who are sick.
    Provide for those who are struggling.
    And unite our families through the love of Jesus Christ.
    We declare the words of Psalm 133:1 (KJV):
    “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!”

    TUESDAY FAMILY DECLARATION...
    Today, we declare that our family belongs to God!
    We declare healing over the sick, peace over troubled minds, deliverance over those in bondage, salvation over the lost, employment for those seeking work, increase for those needing provision, and restoration over our relationships.
    We declare that Jesus Christ will be lifted up in our homes.
    We will love God first and love one another.
    We declare that God is our Healer, our Deliverer, our Savior, our Provider, our Protector, and our Keeper!

    1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

  • Monday Encouragement — Now Let Us Live What We Believe

    Blessings, dear brothers and sisters in Christ.

    Yesterday we had the wonderful privilege of gathering with God’s people on the Lord’s Day. We worshiped our sovereign God, heard His precious Word proclaimed, prayed together, and were reminded once again of the saving grace that is ours through our Lord Jesus Christ.

    But now Monday has arrived.

    The worship service has ended, but our worship has not.

    Today we return to our homes, workplaces, ministries, communities, responsibilities, and challenges. And this is where the truth we heard yesterday must become visible in the way we live today.

    It is easy to proclaim our trust in God while surrounded by fellow believers on Sunday. The greater challenge comes on Monday when difficulties return, unexpected problems arise, and the noise of this world begins competing for our attention.

    Yet the God we worshiped yesterday is the same God who walks with us today.

    “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” — Hebrews 13:8

    Whatever this week brings, let us resist the temptation to immediately depend upon our own understanding and strength. Before making decisions, pray. When difficulties arise, pray. When opportunities appear, pray. When someone needs encouragement, ask God to give you the words to speak.

    And wherever the Lord places us this week, let us remember that we carry something this world desperately needs—the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

    We are not called merely to observe the darkness around us. We have been commanded to carry the Light into it.

    There may be someone God places before you this week who needs to hear that there is hope. Someone may need to experience Christian compassion. Someone may simply need to see through your life that Jesus Christ truly makes a difference.

    Let us therefore begin this week asking one simple question:

    “Lord, how can You use me today for Your glory?”

    “And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men.” — Colossians 3:23

    May the Lord guide our steps, guard our hearts, strengthen our faith, and give us courage to faithfully proclaim Christ wherever He sends us.

    Yesterday we gathered to worship.

    Today we go forth to serve.

    Serving Christ Together for His Glory Alone.

    Soli Deo Gloria.

    TITLE: "GROW INTO CHRIST: FROM SPIRITUAL INFANCY TO MATURITY"

    ANCHOR SCRIPTURE(S)

    Ephesians 4:13–15 (KJV) "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"

    2 Peter 3:18 (KJV) "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen."

    QUOTE TO REFLECT ON

    "Spiritual maturity is not measured by how long you have been saved, but by how much you have become like Christ."

    DAY'S REFLECTION

    Every living thing is expected to grow. A healthy child does not remain a child forever; growth involves increasing in strength, understanding, responsibility, and maturity. The same principle applies to our spiritual lives.

    Paul says in Ephesians 4:13 that God's purpose is for believers to come "unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ." The word "perfect" here carries the idea of being mature or complete. God's desire is not merely that we become churchgoers, but that we grow into mature followers of Christ.

    Spiritual maturity involves increasing in our faith, knowledge, character, obedience, and love. We should become more like Jesus in how we think, speak, respond to difficulties, forgive others, and treat people.

    Verse 14 warns us not to remain spiritual children, who are "tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine." A spiritually immature person can easily be influenced by every new teaching, popular opinion, emotional experience, or persuasive personality. Without a strong foundation in God's Word, it becomes difficult to distinguish truth from error.

    But verse 15 gives us the way forward: "speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things." Truth without love can become harsh, while love without truth can become compromise. Christian maturity requires both truth and love, with Christ as our standard.

    Peter reinforces this in 2 Peter 3:18: "Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." Grace is God's undeserved favour and enabling power. Growing in grace means becoming increasingly dependent on God's grace and allowing it to transform our lives. Growing in knowledge means continually knowing Christ more deeply through Scripture, prayer, obedience, and experience.

    Life experience teaches us that physical age does not automatically produce maturity. A person can grow older without becoming wiser. Similarly, years of church attendance do not automatically produce spiritual maturity. Growth requires intentional pursuit.

    Today, ask yourself: Am I growing? Am I more patient than I used to be? More forgiving? More disciplined? More grounded in God's Word? More loving? More like Christ?

    Do not be satisfied with yesterday's spiritual growth. Keep learning. Keep obeying. Keep growing. Keep becoming more like Jesus.

    MEDITATION SCRIPTURE(S)

    Colossians 1:10 (KJV) "That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;"

    Hebrews 5:14 (KJV) "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil."

    LIFE LESSONS (IMPLICATIONS)

    1. God expects every believer to grow spiritually.

    2. Spiritual maturity requires knowledge of Christ and obedience to His Word.

    3. Immaturity makes us vulnerable to false teaching and deception.

    4. Truth must be communicated with love.

    5. Spiritual growth requires intentional effort and consistent fellowship with God.

    6. The ultimate standard of Christian maturity is Christ Himself.

    EVERYDAY ACTION

    Read God's Word, practise what you learn, and consciously choose to respond to people today in a way that reflects Christ.

    PRAYER

    Heavenly Father, help me grow in grace and in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. Make me spiritually mature, grounded in Your truth, rich in love, and increasingly like Christ. In Jesus' name, Amen.

    DECLARATION

    I am growing spiritually. I am grounded in God's Word and established in truth and love. I will not remain spiritually immature or be carried away by false teachings. I am growing in grace and becoming more like Christ every day. Amen.
