That's My King

By Dr. S.M. Lockridge

The Bible says my King is a seven-way king....He's the King of the Jews; that's a racial king....He's the King of Israel; that's a national King....He's the King of Righteousness....He's the King of the Ages.....He's the King of Heaven....He's the King of Glory....He's the King of kings, and He's the Lord of lords. That's my King. Well....I wonder, do you know Him?.... David said, "The Heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament shows His handiwork. My King is a sovereign King. No means of measure can define His limitless love. No far seeing telescope can bring into visibility the coastline of His shoreless supply. No barrier can hinder Him from pouring out His blessings. He's enduringly strong....He's entirely sincere....He's eternally steadfast....He's immortally graceful....He's imperially powerful....He's impartially merciful....... Do you know Him?

He's the greatest phenomenon that ever crossed the horizon of this world. He's God's Son....He's a sinner's Saviour....He's the centerpiece of civilization....He stands in the solitude of Himself....He's august....He's unique....He's unparalleled....He's unprecedented....He's the loftiest idea in literature....He's the highest personality in philosophy....He's the supreme problem in higher criticism....He's the fundamental doctrine of true theology....He's the cardinal necessity for spiritual religion....He's the miracle of the age.... He's the superlative of everything good that you choose to call Him....He's the only one qualified to be an all sufficient Saviour...... I wonder if you know Him today?

He supplies strength for the weak....He's available for the tempted and the tried....He sympathizes and He saves....He strengthens and sustains....He guards and He guides....He heals the sick....He cleanses lepers....He forgives sinners....He discharges debtors....He delivers captives....He defends the feeble....He blesses the young....He serves the unfortunate....He regards the aged....He rewards the diligent....and He beautifies the meek....... I wonder if you know Him?

Well, my King....is the King....He's the key to knowledge....He's the wellspring to wisdom....He's the doorway of deliverance....He's the pathway of peace....He's the roadway of righteousness ....He's the highway of holiness....He's the gateway of glory....... Do you know Him?

Well....His office is manifold....His promise is sure....His light is matchless....His goodness is limitless....His mercy is everlasting....His love never changes....His word is enough....His grace is sufficient....His reign is righteous....and His yoke is easy, and his burden is light. I wish I could describe Him to you, but He's indescribable....He's incomprehensible....He's invincible....He's irresistible.

Well, you can't get Him out of your mind....You can't get Him off of your hand....You can't out live Him, and you can't live without Him....The Pharisees couldn't stand Him, but they found out they couldn't stop Him....Pilate couldn't find any fault in Him....The witnesses couldn't get their testimonies to agree....Herod couldn't kill Him....Death couldn't handle Him, and the grave couldn't hold Him. Yea!!!, that's my King, that's my King.

Father..."Thine is the Kingdom....and the Power....and the Glory....Forever"....and ever, and ever, and ever, and ever. How long is that? And ever...and ever...and when you get through with all the forevers, then.... AMEN!....AMEN!

Can't wait till then!!!!

No More Myspace crap-ola

I'm OUT of mySpace and I'm NOT coming back!

FIND ME HERE AGAIN http://www.xanga.com/Nouhope

My advice, get out of myspace too... say NO to porn, compromise, gossip, selfishness, insecurity, and other crap.

Y should anyone try to reach their friends by putting their hands in the pooper before grabbing them, Myspace would have been great if it REALLY was my space, but instead it’s “Sexy singles” space and more bologna (and not the Oscar Meyer brand).

Instead of continuing on the myspace bandwagon, hop off and show you love Jesus more than the fad.

Standing up for what’s true, and His name is Jesus!

Back and Better

WOW been a long time since I’ve been here, but I’m back now! And planning on staying back! I’m also back online after months of silence, between schedule and PC problems, I think I’m running WOD (wide open throttle: Best all around performance is achieved when wide-open-throttle engine operation occurs)

But now back to the WORD, cause mine our powerless without “HIS”

Let’s go with a double message today:

MSG 1 – Dirty Diapers –

I don’t have much experience in diaper replacement, but I need to keep changing myself. No I don’t wear diapers, just read the rest…lol

I need to “Change my Mind” and I’ve seen people get upset if someone “changes their mind”

Let’s think of some instances of when we get upset?

·        Our parents said one thing then changed their mind

·        Our friends wanted to come over and changed their mind

·        We were going to get a raise but our boss changed their mind

·        Etc….

Now we get upset when people change their mind, but, people have to change their minds.

Two reasons why we have to change our minds:

1: Our minds aren’t perfect. When we become Christians, we don’t get a perfect brain, we get a perfect retirement plan, but our minds need to be changed.

2: The bible says we must change our minds Romans 12:2 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=rom%2012:2&version=31

Now I am committed to becoming a man of integrity, and keep my word. So If I say “I’m going to be somewhere,” I want to keep my word. As leaders (all Christians are leaders, we are called to lead others to eternity) we should keep our word.

But what happens is we say things like “God told me to do this….. Then after it didn’t work out cause it was our fleshly desire (a new  relationship [not just romantic but friendships we know will drag us down] job that will interfere with growth in Christ, a new church, wat-eva else you’ve experienced) Then we come back saying, God changed his mind, and then people get this bent view on God.

God doesn’t change His mind, either we are in touch with Holy Spirit or we miss it.

So let’s decide to change our stinkin thinkin and wash our mind with the word. Rom 12:2

-a quote to chew on: “God is immutable. He has never changed and can never change in any smallest measure. To change He would need to go from better to worse or from worse to better. He cannot do either, for being perfect He cannot become more perfect, and if He were to become less perfect He would be less than God.” AW Tozer
