Radio Redemption and Power

In this episode of Radio Redemption and Power we talk about the process in which God allows us to go through in which our faith is solidified.

Have you ever been made fun of, ridiculed and mocked for believing in Jesus? This isn’t something strange, it happens to everyone who is a true believer in Christ. A mocker is someone that tries to discredit a statement by making fun of it. This reminds me of a time when the Lord sent me to give a word in a church. After the service ended, one of the women from the congregation invited us to join her for dinner at her home. When we arrived I sat in the dining room waiting for the dinner to be prepared. I heard the associate pastor and his wife talking to a gentleman about receiving Christ as his personal Savior. As they were introducing the Plan of Salvation to him, he laughed and mocked at what they were saying. Thankfully this man later did receive Christ, but this reminds me about those that still haven’t. This is a serious matter folks and it is sad to say, but some of these people are in our own family. Every time I think about the story of Noah, I start to imagine as Noah was building the ark, what the people were saying about him. Look at this crazy man building an ark on dry land. Then I start to wonder about the final moment of their lives, as the ark’s doors were shut and the waters started to rise. Who are the mockers? They are the people that are lost and unable to see the dangers of the coming storm.

2 Chronicles 36:16

But they continually mocked the messengers of God, despised His words and scoffed at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against His people, until there was no remedy.

Have you ever been afraid of something bad happening to you or your family? I know the feeling. A few years ago when the stock market crashed, it set off a great recession in this country that devastated many lives. People lost their homes, jobs and even for some their savings. I will never forget it. My wife who managed several branches which provided funds for the builders of homes, came home one day and said she was laid off. This was right after of the purchase of our second home. This was something that I was not ready for. It triggered a chain of events that took away almost everything that I had, including all my savings. If that wasn’t enough, the job that I was working for at the time started to downsize and people were getting laid off. I remember one day that one of the big bosses came and started to call people in one by one. Before my name was called, I said to the Lord, remember your promises to me. I can remember from that from point on, I had a sense of peace. I knew that God had it all under control and I was asked to stay.

Psalm 121:7 The LORD keeps you from all harm and watches over your life.

We are a forgetful people! How many times can we look back in our lives whether in Christ or even before we knew Him that He was certainly there for us, even as we rejected Him. Protecting and sheltering us from our wrong decisions or mistakes, trails and tribulations, sorrows and griefs. Only to have thoughts of abandonment as soon as we feel things aren't going are way again or the walls are closing in on us and God is nowhere to be found? But thankfully we have a God who will remain being faithful even as we are not, who will think of us even when we've shut Him out time and time again, who loves us and is good to us even when we do not deserve it. Let us remember who God is and He is Good.

There might be points in a persons life were we feel we've exhausted ourselves, were we might be at our wits end, tired, drained, about ready to throw in the towel. For a christian it could be running wearing of all your efforts to keep the faith, to continue the fight, to push forward when all seems lost. This world and it's ruler has a way of bringing us down of trying to make us distrust the promises of God. But for those who believe and look not to things seen but that which is unseen know that the Lord Jesus Christ is always there with pierced hands stretched out directly towards us ready to lift us up!!

Isaiah 40:28-31 New International Version (NIV)

28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom.

29 He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.

30 Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;

31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint.

On this episode Of Radio Redemption and Power we speak on the importance bearing fruit as Christian.

Matthew 26:17-30King James Version (KJV)

17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?

18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.

19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

20 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.

21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.

25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

30 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

Hebrews 12:1-2

12 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Rom 1:25

They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen.

Rom 1:18

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their

wickedness,

For the last couple of weeks we've been speaking about our identity in Christ. On this episode of RRP we connect our identity with the authority we have against the powers of darkness.
