CALLED BY LORD, PART 9

-










This week we have looked at men and women that were called by the Lord to perform special actions 
and missions. The truth of the matter is, all of the Christians are called by the Lord to perform certain actions daily.

Here are some scriptures that advise you of these actions:



DEUTERONOMY 6:5 


You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

 

JEREMIAH  33:3 

Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’


MATTHEW 6:33

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.


 

MATTHEW 22:37


Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’
 
MARK 12: 28-31

28 Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, “Which is the first commandment of all?”
29 Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. 
30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment. 
31 And the second, like it, is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
LUKE 6:38
 

Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”
 

JOHN 3:14-16
 
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up, 
15 that whoever believes in Him should not perish but  have eternal life.  
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

  
ROMANS  8:28         

And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 


ROMANS 10:17
 
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
 

JAMES 1:22

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.


 
JAMES 2:19

You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 

1 John 1:9  
If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

 

1 JOHN 4:1     

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 





 


 
I should try my best to strive for holiness. When I mess up, I try to remember that no one is perfect
but the Lord. 
 
 

ROMANS  3:22-24

 
22 even the righteousness of God, through faith
in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For
there is no difference; 
23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory 
of God,  
24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the

DEPICTION OF RAHAB OF JERICHO I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God.

Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to use a harlot (prostitute)

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore a man shall leave h
