Called By Christ To Be ONE: THE JOY SET BEFORE HIM

Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!

Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

THE JOY SET BEFORE HIM

The Joy Set Before Him

Darlene Edmondson

“…That My joy and delight may be in you, that your joy and gladness may be full, complete, and overflowing (John 15:11 AMP)

As a young shepherd, night time usually found David gazing upward and reveling in God’s grandeur. Lingering and dripping with delight while glorifying his Creator, David was completely aware that power and hope sprang from God alone. This intimate fellowship equipped David with strength and courage.

Like David, we too have access to this intimate fellowship with the Lord at anytime. There, we can relish strong arms that embrace, enjoying perfect bliss as we rest in the quietness of heart and receive fortitude to face each day.

Approximately nine hundred years after David’s death, a greater King, Jesus, was born and later crucified.

How did Jesus endure this horrendous suffering?

By looking forward to reuniting with His Father, Jesus yearned for the bond of oneness they had before time began.

His pure love for His Father, and for us, held Him on that bloody cross, ‘because of the joy set before Him, He endured the cross’ (Heb 12:2).

Both David and Jesus possessed a joy that ran deeper than mere pleasure.

This kind of joy and vigor is a byproduct of Christ-likeness. Perhaps you, like me, want this kind of life. If so, we simply entrust ourselves to His loving care and accept Him as our Lord. After that dedication, nothing can pluck us from His hand. We then become branches that thrive by extracting life as we abide closely in the Vine’s abundant supply.

Oh Christ, we want to be like you in every way. Help us follow your lead. Amen.
